Munk, A.K.A. Munkimuk, is a Jardwadjali Koori hip hop artist, rapper, producer, breakdancer, visual artist and composer (what hasn’t he done?!) from Sydney. He co-founded the hip hop group (although he calls it “just his group of mates”) South West Syndicate and has his own program “Making Tracks” on Koori Radio, a First Nations radio station based in Sydney. During our talk, I found out Munk is a well of wisdom when it comes to Indigenous talent who have travelled the word as world class performers. Inspiring others is his biggest passion, and if you’ll stick to the end, you’ll be treated with the South West Syndicate track “Paradise,” featuring Uncle Wes Marne!

This podcast has been brought to life as part of Charlotte Schuitenmaker's PhD Thesis on contemporary Indigenous musics in Australia, investigating the relations between activism, urbanism, and Indigeneity through music. Instead of using interviews for just her thesis, Charlotte wants to share the interviews with you. The stories are important, and this way they are more accessible.
Please be advised that this podcast contains names of deceased persons.
This episode’s guest is Dobby. Dobby is a Filipino and Muruwari musician in Australia. He plays the drums, he plays piano, and he raps on top of that. Dobby has released several singles, an EP, and he is always involved in various musical and cultural projects.
