Bridging The Gap~March 3rd, 2020: Soundtracking Productivity

This past Saturday, the last day of Hawaiian Language Month, I was asked to DJ an event put on by Mana Studios + Purple Mai?a called "??lelo Jam." Mana Studios created a program called "??lelo Flix" where the public can translate the subtitles of Netflix movies into Hawaiian via a Chrome extension. They also taught keiki how to code in Hawaiian as part of their "Code Haumana" program.

I was asked to play background music during the "Jam" portion of the event while the participants worked on translating the subtitles. So this playlist was curated to be the soundtrack to their productivity. It?s mellow but not too ambient, with some funk and life to it to keep you engaged.
