Now Pamyua (and make sure to check out their Yup'ik stuff too)

"Pamyua (pronounced /ˈbʌmjoʊə/ in English) is a Yupik musical group from Anchorage in the U.S. state of Alaska...

"Pamyua's music is self-described as "tribal funk" and "world music". Most of their songs are based on traditional Yupik, Inuit and Greenlandic chants, but the group is well-known for reinterpreting them in modern styles..."

Sweating Honey and the others

Here's Sweating Honey

"Products of their environment, Sweating Honey tries to play music that accommodates yet balances the mood swings of the emerging generation plagued by the chaos of shit accumulation. In other words we have songs for everyone...

"Sweating Honey has been a 4 time finalist in the Independent Music World Series and has received a smattering of awards including the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner "Readers Choice Award" for Best Local Band and the Anchorage Press "Press Picks" award for Best Live Band."

Now for the rest of the music. The other samples just weren't meant to be. So here are my recommendations, albeit verbal, not audiovisual:
