  • Didgeridoo master the late Mr A. M. Wunungmurra, this was the occasion of first meeting Mr Wunungmurra. At the time of filming, he was 19 years old.
    Mr Wunungmurra demonstrated a high level of expertise with the didgeridoo and maintained this standard over a number of years. He was an innovator and experimented with, and created, beats of sublime complex syncopations.
    There have been many musical influences in Mr Wunungmurra's didgeridoo pedigree with his uncle Ted Gurruwiwi and brother-in-law Larry Gurruwiwi among them.
    His favourite song was Michael Jackson's "Black or White".
    Mr Wunungmurra was noteworthy for being equally skilled at lead, rhythm and bass styles of play.
    Thank you bulany for bringing so much joy to so many of us and for sharing your amazing musical talents with us, RIP red flag.

    I've listened to this video 1000+times and it's still the best on the internet and the world at large.

    Beautiful!
    I really the sounds that Adam is making. Lovely stuff. Some really intricate balancing and execution. The first piece reminded me of Larry Winiwini's playing style a lot.
    Thanks for showing us all this wonderful playing Guan.
    Cheers, Martin

    He is a Yankees fan? Love the stippled insignia. :D
    Another young adult who is mastering this exquisite and unique musical language. And, yes, that's a very cool design on the yirdaki.
    Thank you for this video!

    Hi Dante, the decoration on this yirdaki, those black lines, are just a fun thing, nothing serious. They are not outlines for later painting.

    The onlookers had to prompt and encourage Laga to talk... he is a shy young man who prefers to be away from the spotlight. I was lucky to get him on camera at all!

    That was really nice. I was wondering If you happen to know a website on (ancient) ancestral stories of Aboriginals (Dreamtime), like for instance the story of creation.Thanks

    Floyd Dharamal decorated it that way... we call it the Spider Man yirdaki! It is one of two yirdaki that Marrilaga made and used as his personal instruments.

    I love the part from 3.44 to 3.52, very tricky and lovely syncopation.

    Dear ididjaustralia, I am interested in all sorts of stories about the creation since I am in love with the Creator. Aboriginal ppl of Australia seem to have a well preserved oral tradition, that goes a long way back in time , I am sincerely interested as to how they perceive the world they live in and beyond. I have allways been fascinated by the english translation of the idea of 'Dreamtime', that's why. Thanx, bless

    After I have seen this video again and again I must say: "Laga is totally insane :)))))" How can he play that fast - i'm really trying to play the NEAL style for good, but no way I can play this fast og good!!!! Love traditional playing style - both the NEAL style and Charley Browns WAL style!

  • @ididjaustralia

    There are a lot of Dreamtime creation stories among Indigenous Australians and they vary according to clan/tribe/geography etc. What sort of stories are you after and for what purpose?
