One of the recordings that I'm digitizing is of a New Guinea musician known as Blasius to Una. He even has a (very) short Wikipedia entry (here). He seems to be a bit of a character. He sings and speaks in Pidgin, so sometimes English words pop up in his music. He also is quite fond of talking in the middle of his songs--very much like an American folk musician might make jokes and talk as a part of his performance.
Anyway, his songs are a bit more "Westernized", if I may use that term. Here's one that I particularly like titled "Kunai Dumdum".
