Rotuman Classics – Volume 2 🌴🎶

Rotuman Classics – Volume 2 🌴🎶 Released 7th May 2026 Rotuman Classics – Volume 2 continues the journey of preserving and celebrating the timeless music, stories, and spirit of Rotuma. This collection blends traditional island soul with heartfelt modern interpretation, keeping the original melodies and cultural essence alive while presenting them through my own musical style and arrangement. Every song on this volume carries emotion, memory, and identity — from songs of love and reflection to the warmth of kava circles, island beauty, and the voices of generations before us. This project is deeply personal and dedicated once again to my late father, Mareko Fasipi Kunau, whose passion for music and storytelling shaped the foundation of my journey as a musician. It is also dedicated to my children, Maria and Raymond Kunau, so our culture, language, and songs continue to live on through future generations. 🎵 Track List 1.
