Have been in Honiara for the last week, organising a research application and talking to relevant people. The trade and culture show starts tomorrow and the program for music is amazing - seven days of bands from 11am to 7pm.
There is a really lively home studio recording scene here, and I visited a great little studio yesterday. Information about recording techniques and equipment is certainly needed, so that will be a task for me over the next few months, to be hosted at this website.
Have been marking up all recordings (audio and video) using annodex - see http://www.annodex.net. This is a great resource for music research, and will really assist with retrieval and analysis of material.
Hem no moa.
