Wow bold pull in the field ask me. Nothing It doesn't in my. View let the Commie. Through this break you know that's a long it doesn't track you just log into letting those hazardous actions the act of big conquest fall by the. Young. Folks like you. Or not. They all see the tricks just. Keep. Rising like my interest my. Once again you are tuned in to keep your feet in $104.00 F.M. My name is Betty Yes Right now we've got a guest underlying who's going to be telling us a little bit about nothing going on and opening and his name is Danny so welcome to the soul Danny how you doing piece. On children how are you good Tell us about this event that's going down and where and what time and how complex to get more information as well most definitely even Oakley from one of the fundraiser for Mona as well mycelium network my group is called. Sunny if we mount but the word for sunrise. That we might but there's a nation for some of them that he got I made sense of that nation and he then basically to raise funds for these 2 important causes mycelium you network helps young people survive and thrive in a climate changing world and then. Protecting sacred sites it's going to be a concert featuring my group. It's going to be blow up when on September 6th doors open at 7 and then later on in the evening at around 10 my group is going to do a 2nd set but there's also going to be an assortment of other artists and sloth including goose eclipse including Gino mother the Deseret harp and many others I'm in support of MONUC care to listen a little bit about the band and did you end up. Being part of it so the band is a celebration of the indigenous and Afro daya sports and music styles of the Americas we try to draw from that bridge heritage as much as possible our backbone is in hip hop music obviously but if you live instrumental hip or 4 piece drums bass guitar and then sort of instruments that I play which include trumpet in flutes and rhythm guitar center or. You know try to draw from styles that includes outside of hip hop made a. Reggae danceable styles try to keep the energy very high to dance floor moving and yeah it's a fairly new project you know I'm a vet that I know when it comes to the music scene of playing a lot of different groups and been doing using for many many years I have are the Sunday project is about a year old and we're looking forward to debuting it on September 6th. Open and to listen a little bit about you know what are some songs that you're ready come. And how did I go most definitely will one of the songs that I'm most proud of is entitled mighty force butterfly for the non Spanish speakers it was inspired by a little uses work out. Here in Oakland but it's a song about borders not just the physical borders that we see on the geopolitical scale but. The borders in our minds the borders that we create almost one another and so we play with that concept a lot in that song we flip it. With one song you know it'll go from Spanish to English to lyrics and now what to the lyrics in Portuguese as well 3 colonial languages was one indigenous language. And then stylistically we try to play with the concept of borders as well and so the song goes from from Banda style to travel and then back again that's would serve and you know. Interesting the enough like you're talking about and that sense of him being important for musicians to really talk that sense a common sense right border that divides us all but the reality is that colonize space in you know in trying to decode the nice folks with our music the men cannot Yeah you know it is as much as possible I know that growing up the colonizing messages always resonated the most for me when I heard. Through music whether it was through sacred songs or you know hip hop artist. Breaking things down that I wasn't going to hear in a conventional history book so definitely and tell us a little bit about you know what other projects you've been involved in or you know how can poke soso get more of your work as well in the sense of you know what are you what are some preacher projects you're going to be doing yes most definitely So my main focus is on the Right now. Best way to get out of this is online. And Facebook advice on music however. My main project prior to this one thing and it's an ongoing project is a project called Dave out of a lot one which for those that don't always is Mexican slang for on the down low and that that projects you know is a is a piece live instrumental hit the World Music Project as well. And you know you can you can hear that project on Spotify you can hear that project on. You know you can follow us on Facebook and I G as well as the whole music or yeah I believe it's the whole music. Then I have a couple of mix tapes on bank camp as well maybe kind of volume one and 2 like how many guys is a term coined by. The late gorge out is. It's a play on words for a Pan American. Gets Well word for 1st. And then America. Is the word from America so it's a. Mystical term in a sense. That's you know celebrating an identity that is a center that is Earth based on this continent that's right and you know as we've been hearing on the news you know that there was a closing that took place right because of the situation with the war that that's going on and you know we don't want to get into into it but as we know as it's part of the immigration or anti immigration impact that's going on. Well you know and we see it does racism playing out right so you know it's important to remember that when we're talking about you know class that is it's not just black or white or brown you know and that is it's there's more to that make sort of speak and not always always. You know just say to the world right now I see a lot of these devastating issues is incredibly connected you know whether it's the separations of families at the border the burning of the Amazon the police brutality against our African-American brothers and sisters. Missing in murders indigenous women you know there's there's strains of white supremacy that have impacted all of those legacies and indeed are for driving you know the mass shootings what have you and so I think it's important to make those connections. In order to be able to stand in solidarity and see those intersections we have with the people that may not look exactly like you. Or may not be from where you're. From you know to be able to see see those connections despite those differences and that's why I think it's interesting that you're talking about you know playing Bond you know and then moving into a mix of traps you know just because this kind of walk in the stars to begin with our with our folks you know yeah you know bondo was a bit of a stretch for me I'm not going to lie but it was always a style of music that I loved and adored but I just picked up the trumpet maybe about 2 years ago and so you know that instrument laws itself will to to fund and as I mentioned before my family is from so know that make it go where locals ople Sudha in the all over the territory of some of that make you go and have a deep connection with that that place in that territory so it felt all the right too. You use the band. To you know on of that heritage which is literally 4 hours from our territories 4 hours from the US Mexico border 4 hours from Tucson roughly and tell us a little bit about you not did you end up getting involved in music rather than something else or Oriental doing other. Yeah most definitely will I felt incredibly blessed growing up you know my father. He's from some. And I'm a child of exile so. He was forced to leave Chile in exile in 19 after the coup in 1973 he came to the States ironically because as you know it was a U.S. Sponsored coup on the democratically elected president said well what are you in there and he ended up ironically in the states where he married my mom who is. She gonna And you know one of the things she brought with him was. The music from self America and at that time it was language I can feel like you know I mean he got us because that is sort of the. City of over the years and that day and he was always very and then beyond that just a slew of Indian music so music played with that angle some poignant and my father was always a type a dude who just allowed our creativity to thrive you know he never kept those instruments from us we ever showed in any inkling of interest he wouldn't you know if you just put those instruments in our hands and so it was just a natural progression you know growing up as a child and. During the eighty's you know growing up in a community of exile around people from a salvage lot and. What they might as economic refugees from mythical who had all been displaced you know and being able to connect with the African-American community as well you know hip hop then became a unifying factor and you didn't have to growing up in the ninety's it was a type of hip hop where. You had to have an original voice so it always made sense to us to infuse our cultural heritage into the hip hop formula to create something brand new and then foster that original voice I don't want that to be able to be intersecting with you would do you know in that sense so you know what you're doing coming up on the savannah right now can you give us that information one more time yeah most definitely his show is on September 6th or is open it's 7 there's another set happening at 10. Oglander on September 6th and it's a fundraiser for my own mycelium Youth Network my group is sunny and just you know from what you known just can you let some of the folks know what's happening out in the islands out there and just in case they might not know Yeah absolutely so. The queen of Hawaii was displaced in the late. 1900 was violently displaced by a group of Anglo business owners and since that time hole-Y. Has been acquired by colony Obviously it's been brought in as a state since then. But the history of indigenous oppression on that island is is deep and the history of the exploitation of digits land for. Neoliberal development is deep and profound and they've been building telescopes on sacred land I want to say from what I understand from from from the seventy's and this is something like the 13th of the 14 telescope they're attempting to build However Mona is one of the sites of native Hawaiian creation story and so to desecrate that particular place. Is is just a no go for Native Hawaiians so. They've taken a courageous stand to block the roads and stand their ground and not allow that development to happen. And you know it's an unnecessary development as I said it's something like the 13th of the 14th telescope they can do with a telescope someplace else you know so that's that's the reason and it's become a entered the international movement toward solidarity. It's garnered international attention and so we're just trying to do our part that's right once again right here in Oakland September September 6th That's right and again do you have the address by the way. I don't have it on me. But it's cool if you look at Norris. Downtown Oakland. Apologies I don't have it on me nah not as good as anything you can find to be all right and then you know just for folks out there who are tuned in right now they're listening to me and Danny right here from Sunny's he said thanks honey yes I sonny boy isn't and so you know where did the name come from and you know what So as I mentioned before I'm a descendant of it that way Miles but the people of Sun know that Mexico from the Pueblo available so the M.R. People are currently engaged in a cultural and linguistic reclamation. Where we're seeking to recuperate our dear dance of corn dance or cloud dance seeking to recuperate fragments of our ceremonial cycle and you know be part of that is the language and sharing that you know we're using our peoples language to describe the epistemologies the ways of knowing and living in the world. And so determined by Sunny means sunrise dear. We are a dear people it's a derivative of the term sunny which is. The road of the deer which is our people's way of saying kind of the Red Road and you know the deer is a. Medicinal animal it's. To medicinal gain it's. About vision it's about walking with grace and one of the teachings and so Nona is. Every step that the deer takes a flower grows so we as human beings see to walk in a way similar to the deer walk with grace and give people flowers as we walking. You know B.B. Good relatives and that way Oh most definitely M. You know and talking about that what what kind of advice would you give to the youth out there who are trying to you know start their own career or start a new you know rapping on them I think or get in front of a mike with the band you know you mean give the same advice that I heard when they said it is from God If it is a gift and his advice was educate educate yourself so that you have something to talk about educate yourself so you're not dependent on. Other people to make your beat to compose your songs. To kind of make your vision manifest in the world think a lot of people get caught up on that you know. What you mean. I would say just nurture that natural curiosity whatever it is or whatever topic and you know try to speak to those those topics and use it musically to the to the degree that you're able and then the other thing is just consistency you know try to try to nurture your craft over time you know get those lines in the car you know compose those beats record record those between they when when when they come to you record among a phone and then transfer them to music and just kind of cultivate that and that creative sensibility where you're consistently refining your craft. Were once again and the we want to say thank you to you for being here with us and for definitely putting out a positive message and conscious messages and getting involved in that struggle.
