Welcome! Greetings, Mauri and Talofa! I'm Jane Resture and I was born in Hull Island (Orona), Phoenix Group, Republic of Kiribati. My father is Polynesian of Tuvaluan/English/French extraction and my mother is from Onotoa, one of the atolls of the Republic of Kiribati, and the Caroline Islands. They have now made the Solomon Islands (Melanesia) their home. I travelled extensively throughout the islands of Oceania when I was young and I developed a deep appreciation and love for our unique, sensitive and harmonious Pacific Island music of Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia. Micronesia Music Radio has been introduced in order to facilitate the promotion of Micronesia music to a worldwide audience. This was undertaken as a consequence of a foreseen need to allow the musical component of Micronesia heritage to be made available to a wider audience. It is a feature of Micronesia Music Radio that it does allow Micronesia music to be listened to and appreciated by people worldwide in particular friends of Micronesia and Oceania who have a love and appreciation of our music in addition to our own Micronesian people wherever they may be and who can now listen to music from their home islands via the Internet. I do hope that you enjoy listening to our Micronesia music.

Xavier X. Fethal is an amazing and talented artist whose music transcends all boundaries in his contemporary interpretations of the beautiful music of Yap, Federated States of Micronesia.
