Tunes from Turtle Island

Hi I’m <a href="https://andrewgj.uk" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-cke-saved-href="https://andrewgj.uk">Andrew GJ</a> I am an artist working with many mediums including, but not exclusive to, found objects, bronze, glass, film and audio. At the moment, I am making the Tunes from Turtle Island radio show, I consider this to be a part of my artistic output. The Tunes From Turtle Island radio show is dedicated to playing only indigenous artists from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_Island_(North_America)" data-cke-saved-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_Island_(North_America)">Turtle Island</a>. In 2016, I was following online the <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/nov/03/north-dakota-access-oil-pipeline-protests-explainer">Standing Rock oil pipeline protests</a>, (which btw was the biggest ever protest gathering in North America), when I heard music I hadn't encountered before. I am a bit of a music nerd and collector, so pursued an internet audio trail to find an incredible wealth of music and sound. In the show I play all genres: country, punk, jazz, hip-hop, traditional, experimental, soul, rock, blues and more, ranging from the 1920s right up to the present day. I mix new releases and old classics, often back to back, in a style sometimes reminiscent of the British DJ <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Peel">John Peel</a>. My aim is to introduce more people to this amazing and varied music, as I think no other DJ or radio show in Europe is doing this. I hope you enjoy my eclectic mix of tracks from the indigenous music scenes of N. America.
