Pow Wow Step: A Tribe Called Red
A Tribe Called Red’s trio of DJs – NDN, Bear Witness, and Shub – create a unique, never-before-heard sound built from a foundation of Native American chants combined with hip-hop, dance hall, and dubstep, to form a cross-cultural musical mash-up they call “pow wow step.” Based in Ottowa, this crew reimagines pow wow music for Canada’s increasingly urbanized aboriginal youth, reclaiming clichés and transforming them into club beats.
