# Data Drop: 24 waiata, 6 kinds, 4 governance events
A quick look at the Anamata Records catalogue as of 2026-07-23. Download the dataset at the bottom.
## Numbers
- 24 released waiata
- 6 distinct kinds (waiata, mihi, haka, poi, karakia, hīmene)
- 4 governance log entries
- 8 consent log entries
- 1 cultural review cycle (approved)
- 0 archived releases
## Where the data comes from
All numbers are live database queries. You can reproduce them at `/dev/tools/audit` or via the dataset below.
## What the kinds distribution looks like
| Kind | Count | Note |
|---|---|---|
| waiata | 14 | Standard song format |
| mihi | 4 | Greeting/introductory speech-song |
| haka | 3 | Ceremonial dance |
| poi | 2 | Poi dance-song |
| karakia | 1 | Prayer/incantation |
## Cultural flags
Of the 24 released waiata:
- 5 have `iwi_consent_required` flag
- 3 of those have an attached iwi consent record
- 2 are still pending consent (status = pending)
## Audit trail
Every consent decision is logged in `consent_log` (append-only). Every governance event in `data_governance_log`. Every cultural review in `cultural_review_cycles`.
The trigger-based gates:
- `releases_require_cultural_signoff` — blocks `status = scheduled` or `released` unless `cultural_review_status = approved`
- `deny_modification` on the audit tables — no UPDATE or DELETE on consent_log, data_governance_log, cultural_review_cycles
So the audit trail is genuinely append-only. Not "append-only in practice" but "append-only enforced by the database."
## What's in the dataset
This drop includes a CSV with all 24 released waiata metadata, joined with iwi consent + cultural flags. Columns:
- `id`, `slug`, `title`, `kind`, `release_date`
- `cultural_flags[]`, `iwi_consent_id`, `iwi_name`, `consent_scope`
- `duration_seconds`, `local_contexts_labels[]`
- `created_at`, `updated_at`
## What's NOT in the dataset
- Audio stems (those are in the private `stems` storage bucket)
- Personal info of contributors (RLS-protected)
- Pending drafts
