I can't think of a more valuable thing to do than showcasing the technical process as well as the stories and meaning behind the music that artists make. True artistry being recognized and analyzed, I love it, great job.

I’m half Native American and grew up on a reservation, so during my early teen years I took up grass dancing. Seeing the segment with Iron Boy breaking down northern style drum gave me pleasant flashbacks to my days of grass dancing competitively in powwows across the US. A little representation goes a long way, so this video is an absolutely wonderful thing to see. Keep up the good work, Sound Field, on shining a light to music most people might not know about, it really is important. Mvto! (“Thank you!” in Muskogee)

Another delightful Canadian Indeginous project is Yamantaka // Sonic Titan which blends Metal and Indeginous-style vocals. I highly recommend their song "One" or, if you're feeling more experimental "A Star Over Pureland".

The Tribe Called Red used to play on the same night as us ("Trackstars Dj Crew", Dan Field, Aga ) at Murcury Lounge in Ottawa.....they had there own scene going just like us and any real underground crew. They were legit and warm as well...

I'm glad someone is keeping native music alive, even if it's a different tribe. Wish the Cherokee tribe had something like these guys. Canada's natives have gone through (and continue to go through) immense hardships. I'm glad they're keeping themselves alive.

It's crazy how captivating the Iron Boys drumming is. I am from West Africa and I love drums. It's crazy how it is present in all cultures around the world. While I was listening to the drum circle, I couldn't help myself from imagining a tribe preping for war. I guess it's because of how native americans have been portrait in western movies. Then I was shocked that they sing about how beautiful it is to watch a lady's long braids flying while she dances. As a whole I loved this segment. Very cool and informative.

Thank you so much, I know I'll be sharing this with a ton of people, and I hope many more get to see this! I'd love for y'all to do future videos on music created by and for other marginalized groups and musicians. But no matter what comes out next, I know I can't wait to see it and will already love it

You guys should do a thing on "Industrial Music". Look at bands like Einsturzende Neubouten, Throbbing Gristle, 80's Skinny Puppy, etc... The industrial music scene back in the 80's had some amazing stuff that influenced a lot of music that we have today.

Another great video. You researched the music and where it was going in a way that respected a people who have gotten little respect in the past. My family hid their connection to the native people because they managed to drop out of the trail of tears. They stayed in a remote area and lived off the land for a long time. Those of us who came after they left the hiding place found out about it in the last ten years.

Has anybody seen Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the World? It's been a while, but it's basically about how the culture and music of enslaved Africans and indigenous people of North America fused together over time to create Rock n' Roll, as well as many other aspects of 'American' culture. I highly recommend watching it.
