Multidisciplinary artist YT DiNGO (pronounced White Dingo) has revealed his visionary new single and music video called “Temptalien” featuring Emily Wurrawara & Angela Wurramara. “Temptalien” is about personal growth and connecting with your roots to heal from past trauma and form new connections with self and country.

YTD has kept up a relentless rate of pace since his debut. His completely immersive live show has seen him grace stages at festivals such as Splendour In The Grass, Desert Harmony, Falls Festival and The Edenborough International Festival, just to mention a key few.

The artist comments:

“The music video begins on the balcony where Angela and Emily shared their stories, before transitioning to the ship and the ocean. YT DiNGO, alone at sea, finds himself reflecting on the imprint of colonialism and the diseases it has brought upon him. Emily Wurramara, a spirit on the ship, sings him towards the ocean, where he encounters characters of himself lured by different temptations that he must overcome with the help of Anindilyakwa women. Eventually, he forms a connection with a First Nation mermaid, leading him to leave the ship behind and embark on a journey of knowledge and growth. Matriarch mermaid Angela Wurramara, singing in Anindilyakwa, is among the mermaids awaiting him. Through ceremony and surrendering to the unknown, his colonized mindset is transformed, and he is nurtured by the wisdom and leadership of these trusted law keepers of the ocean.”

The new single “Temptalien” is available on all major online stores and streaming services.
