OUR DIGITAL MEETING PLACE
The national media platform was officially launched in Sydney on Friday 23 November 2018.
indigiTUBE connects and supports the preservation of language and culture for our future generations. A
indigiTUBE gathers First Nations stories from the desert to the sea, connecting and sharing culture from our extremely remote to urban regions; from our fresh new talent to archived histories. indigiTUBE is a digital meeting place for First Nations song, dance, language and lore; creating a unified space to share our evolving and living culture. It also live streams 27 different radio stations to hear what’s going on around the country.
FIRST NATIONS ARTISTS MAKING TRACKS
Since launching in November 2019, the FIRST SOUNDS initiative has published over 100 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists. In partnership with Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA) and First Nations Media Australia, new and emerging artists are are hitting the radio airwaves through a series of CD compilations curated by a panel of eminent First Nations professionals in our music industry. Artists also feature on the Amrap and indigiTUBE websites.
First Sounds is supported by The Australia Council for the Arts.
