UPK, Uwankara Palyanku Kanyitjaku (everybody creating and holding the future) is a strategy to achieve well-being through positive, shared vision of the future and thoughtful action by everybody to achieve this vision. UPK finds expression in many different forms from making of policy to community development, including housing, disease prevention, dog health, water management, land care, community awareness, education and music.
The first UPK album was recorded at Mutitjulu in 1989 establishing a benchmark in popularity and quality. It was not until 2002 that UPK2 was recorded at Tilun Tilun to be followed by UPK#3 at Black Hill – Kunma Piti and UPK#4 at Ulkiya. The quality of these productions is outstanding; UPK music remains the most popular music on the lands today.

In 2014, New Dub City - led by producer and frontman Ali MC - toured to the remote Aboriginal community of Maningrida, where they conducted drumming workshops and performed a rare live show.
Mane Djang Karirra - meaning ‘the place where the Dreaming changed shape’ in local Kunibidji language - is a short documentary following the band as they experience the rich life and culture of the area.
Located in Arnhem Land, on the edge of the Arafura Sea, Maningrida is a community of roughly 2000 people from 15 distinct language groups.
Combining live MCing, didgeridoo (yidaki), dub sirens and West African drumming, Melbourne-based New Dub City took their show to Maningrida and in doing so, learned far more than they could teach.
Beautifully shot by photographer Francesco Vicenzi, and with a bass heavy dub soundtrack, Mane Djang Karirra provides a glimpse into gigging in a remote Aboriginal community.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our latest release 'River Down' - straight out of the community of Wilcannia – the cultural heart of Paakantji Country in Western NSW.
The song was created in May 2017 as part of a 2 Week Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop in partnership with Far West Local Health District ‘Quit for New Life’ Project.
It stars one of the original members of 'The Wilcannia Mob' Lyndall King, and a group of community members including vocalist Owen Whyman Snr and Maureen King aka 'Radio Mor'.
DPM was invited to Wilcannia to facilitate a conversation about important issues facing the community around healthy choices and to create some works that would inspire and educate.
This production was written, recorded and filmed over 5 days in June/July 2016 in the community of Warren in Western NSW. An outcome of a Desert Pea Media community project with a group of young Indigenous people enrolled at Warren High School.
The project came about through a partnership between Desert Pea Media, Outback Arts, Barnardos Australian and the James N Kirby Foundation. Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encouraged participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for individuals, for each other and for our communities.
The song is a celebration of survival, resilience, culture and pride, and dedicated to the people of the Beemunnel Aboriginal Reserve. Special thanks to Stephen Greenslade and Fleur Stubbs.

Baker Boy drops his fourth track in a year and this time it comes with a political punch swathed in positivity. Black Magic is as political as they come yet the prince of positivity delivers it in his deadly uplifting style. Featuring his main man and song-writing collaborator Dallas Woods on guest vocals Black Magic hitd your frequency Freaky Friday the 13th.
Musically speaking Black Magic takes a sharp left from Baker Boy’s usual MO. Hard hitting guitar in the chorus and raw lyrics throughout the track holler out his proud heritage.
