Another Summer listening station, Matariki FM in Rarotonga (the Cook Islands). This is a bilingual broadcaster - English and Cook Island Maori. Rarotonga has strong ties to New Zealand, and boasts a population of only about 11,000. The music mix includes Tahitian and other Pacifica material, as well as more standard fare. (Matariki refers to the Pelaides, hence the stars in the logo.) There's a live stream on the website, and of course it's available on Tune In.So for those of you in the Northern Winter, sodden in Europe or shivering in North America, here's a free ticket to a slice of Pacific sunshine. Do click across, www.matarikifm.co.ck, if only to log your first .co.ck website.
Their web pictures show a peaceful paradise, their biggest threat, I hate to say, is Western culture/consumerism.
