It sounds incredible but Oua Oua by Kanui and Lula got to No 1 on Austria’s pop top 40 in March 2001!
The original recording from the thirties was heavily edited (added electronic drums, bass and keys, sampled oua’s at the beginning instead of the instrumental introduction), but the two original acoustic guitars (standard and steel) can cleary be heard throughout.
In case you wonder how a Hawaiian tune from the 1930s could go straight to the top of the charts in Austria in 2001, it’s quite simple to explain: The TV and radio commercial of a big Austrian mobile phone provider featured the tune as background music, probably because old Hawaiian music is very similar to Austrian traditional music but nevertheless sounds exotic enough to gain people’s attention, as it did in this case.
People obviously asked the commercial company so frequently about the tune that a remixed version was released. The best of all: additionally to three different remixes, including the original version of the tune in it’s sonically restored glory.
I don’t know much about Kanui and Lula, except that they were a worldwide touring husband and wife team, recording mainly in Paris, France, in the thirties.
