2016 г. Artist - Not Drowning Waving featuring Telek. Song - Call Across the highlands. Tabaran is Not Drowning Waving's album recorded in Papua New Guinea, Rabaul at Pacific Gold Studios. The album was tracked in a month and all the songs with the exception of the traditional songs were written during the session. After the month in Rabaul we flew onto Manus.
Not Drowning, Waving (styled as not drowning, waving) were a musical group formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1983 by David Bridie and John Phillips. Their music combined elements of rock, ambient music and world music; their lyrics dealt with characteristically Australian topics: word-pictures of landscapes and people, the seasons, and some political issues – such as Indonesia's invasion of East Timor. The group released nine albums and soundtracks until disbanding in 1994, they briefly reformed in 2001, 2003 and 2005–2006.
We went to Rabaul, Papua New Guinea in July 1988 following an invitation from Greg Seeto, the manager of Pacific Gold Studios, to record in his studio with some local musicians who frequently recorded there. Tabaran' is the result of these recordings. Some of the recordings are NDW songs that could fit on any other NDW album. Their lyrics and feel however reflect time spent in PNG. Other pieces are Papua New Guinea songs, both contemporary and traditional. The arrangements have been augmented by our instrumentation.

Not Drowning, Waving subtly provides the backing rhythms. That track sets the tone for the whole album. While NDW's pleasant blend of mainstream pop and ambience is always present, it does not dominate the PNG musicians' contributions. NDW is prepared to step back and allow us to hear the remarkable quality of traditional and contemporary PNG music on its own terms. There is a genuine collaboration between locals and the visitors. Tabaran is a courageous and innovative album. It wouldn't have been made if commercial interests were the band's only priority. It had its genesis five years ago, when NDW made the soundtrack for a documentary on PNG. In 1986, band members David Bridie and James Southall holidayed in Rabaul and became fascinated with the vibrant music scene there. They met the people who ran the local Pacific Gold recording studios.
