There is nothing more we can add to these words. This double CD set up to two sections, Yirritja and Dhuwa that are the fundamental ground of the Yolŋu cosmology. Contains songs of 10 different clans, sung by real legends – I won`t go any further than that, leave you to explore this unique compilation. Maybe one more thing…the yiḏaki accompaniments are one of the bests you can find on commercial CDs, so it is really worth to get a copy.
