about

Samara Alofa is a multidisciplinary Artist based in Tamaki Makaurau, Aotearoa (Auckland, NZ).
'Laid Out' is inspired by the city scapes of Tamaki Makaurau, Aotearoa.

The drums take inspiration from the nafa (Tongan drums) and pātē (Samoan wood drums, origins of Tahiti), representing Samara's indigenous heritage.
Alongside nods to Samara's Indigenous roots, 'Laid Out' draws inspiration from R&B and Neo Soul and LoFi essences and embodies a spirit of sovereignty and hope.

The lyrics of 'Laid Out' are written in response to the gentrification and ever continuing colonisation of Indigenous people in Aotearoa and speak of the streams and river ways which have been excavated or covered up with concrete and lay dormant under the city.
