Native Grooves : Frank Lehua Kawaikapuokalani Hewett and Freddy Von Paraz (Modern Ancient Production) 1998 KUMU hula Frank Hewett and Freddy Von Paraz boldly set the Hawaiian language in a radically different context with this impressive and creative project. These has never been Hawaiian-language music like this. Hewett chants, sings and narrates tales of Pele and Hi'iaka in Hawaiian and English. Von Paraz envelopes them in a pastiche of contemporary funk, house and acid jazz arrangements. Hewett's participation ensures cultural authenticity; Von Paraz's inspired use of sampling and sequencing reaffirms his place as one of the most imaginative producers in local music. "Native Grooves" is a musical milestone. Native - KUMU hula Frank "Lehua" Hewett Grooves - Freddy "Freddy Boy" Von Paraz
