Te Māngai Pāho - Music Funding Round Opens Today
October 18th 2019
The second of their three music rounds that fund the production of Te Reo Māori waiata opens today - Friday 18 Whiringa-ā-nuku (October).
In this round, we are particularly interested in waiata for iwi radio targeting rangatahi audiences who request songs that:
- are in line with current music trends; and/or
- are upbeat and in line with rangatahi lifestyle.
The round is also open to a wide genre of music. Te Māngai Pāho is committed to funding music in Te Reo Māori that reaches a cross-section of New Zealand’s diverse society. Whatever your style or experience, you are encouraged to apply for funding support if:
- you have a great tune that will get people singing in Te Reo Māori;
- your lyrics and performance demonstrate proficiency in Te Reo Māori;
- you can provide a demo recording of your amazing waiata.
First-time applicants are advised to Register as a Provider and read the Music RFP 2019-20. Applications close at 5:00pm Friday, 8 Whiringa-ā-rangi. Don’t leave it to the last day. Kia kamakama mai e hoa ma!
