Musik Blok is an annual music mentoring program based in Goroka, Eastern Highlands Province.
As the largest Pacific Island nation, PNG has an infinite amount of untapped talent within both the traditional and contemporary music spheres.
However few are able to create sustainable music careers for themselves within their own country, let alone overseas.
With the launch of the PNG government’s 22-23 National Cultural Policy, a Significant emphasis has been placed on the preservation of PNG culture within the arts.
The focus on nurturing this new generation’s rapidly growing tendencies towards contemporary production, composition, songwriting, and touring are predominantly vague if not non-existent.
Herein lies the responsibility to help bolster the development of PNG’s aspiring up and coming young artists.
People who have the potential to be viable exports to the world stage. We have an opportunity to elevate the standard of the domestic music industry for generations to come.
