2011-08-30T17:40:00.003+07:00

in the spirit of ied mubarak. here comes DJ Ainudin with his debut "TUCK-BEER-UN".

Seorang misterius yang diduga berasal dari Jakarta, terlibat di beberapa proyek musik-musik tidak beres, dan pendengar setia electronic dance music, mengirimkan debut single-nya kepada kami atas nama DJ Ainudin. Bukan proyek se-festive rilisan Mad Decent atau Top Billin‘ atau Man Recordings, tapi memberikan nuansa penuh keceriaan dan spirit baru bagi Anda yang telah berpuasa 29 atau 30 hari lamanya di bulan Ramadan ini. Dan, oh, bukan cuma untuk mereka yang muslim saja, debut single ini juga bisa dinikmati oleh Anda yang memercayai kitab-kitab selain Quran. Nikmati tembang yang mungkin dahulu cukup familiar di telinga partygoers gaul sejati dan penggiat tradisi klasik para muslim sejak dahulu.

MTV Get Off The Air 2011

2011-08-02T05:16:00.011+07:00

so yesterday was the 30th birthday of mtv channel. and i just saw the first 10 minutes of the channel launch on youtube.this is one of a historic moment on television broadcasts. the first music television was finally born, with a symbolic music video, "Video Killed The Radio Star" by The Buggles, followed with "You Better Run" by Pat Benatar (she looked like eva spence of rolo tomassi lol). and then the original five MTV VJs in 1981 were shown: Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter, J.J. Jackson and Martha Quinn, saying things like "musical continue non-stop on mtv music television" or "you'll never look at music the same way again" etc, quite a video-killed-a-radio-star-spirit. these guys, ironically are back into being a radio person nowadays.

i was a frequent watcher of mtv (i watch mtv indonesia one). it used to be broadcasted on antv. i like the awards show, alternative nation, cool VJs: nadya hutagalung, sarah sechan, jamie aditya, and many more. these guys was also VJ's on MTV Asia, unlike MTV Indonesia VJ nowadays. i used to dislike the Dead Kennedys song "MTV Get Off The Air" back then in Junior High School, i was like "yea whatever mr. biafra, who cares if MTV have turned rock and roll rebellion into Pat Boone sedation. who cares about tax? i least they've started a revolution. i've been dreaming about getting a cable since i was a little kid, so i can watch mtv (that's right, i used oftenly watch mtv on my relative house because i didn't have a cable TV back then. lame right lol). why did you wrote that song?" (though this song were released before i was born, i listened to this song on the radio in the year 2000 haha). until, for the last 5-6 years, mtv were gettin' lamer. reality shows are everywhere, less-music, and the music are...uhm...retarded. i feel you now Mr. Jello Biafra. everything that he said on the song is getting more reasonable these days. In the name of internet-killed-the-video-star, MTV GET OFF THE FUCKIN AIR. NOW! or at least change your name into a STTV (Stupid Teenager Television) or something.

Studiorama Presents
MINDZAPP
Noise and Lost Frequencies
Saturday, July 9th 2011
Bara Futsal (Basement) Terminal Blok M
Jl Paletehan No 68, Blok M, South Jakarta

Bzzzzt *lebay. Suara itu terdengar hingga di parkir motor di basement Bara Futsal, Blok M. Hal itu menandakan dua hal, artis yang sedang perform di pagelaran anti-musik Mindzapp itu memang memproduksi suara yang luar biasa bising, dan venue berarti dekat parkir. Memang sih ruang berlangsungnya acara di sebelah persis parkir motor.

Membuka pintu, ouchh .. individual distortion, the no-life dude aka @disasterhead, merangkap ketua panitia -kalau tidak salah-, sedang perform. Dia sedang tidak meracik ramuan breakcore/speedcore, back to basic apa ya? harsh-noise, lengkap dengan topi yang dia pakai setiap kali perform. Saya datang dan selang beberapa menit kemudian, show individual distortion selesai, alias saya telat. Hehe. Tunggu, venue-nya keren banget. Ruang kotak warna putih bersih, lapang, AC splitnya ada 3, artsy banget lah.

Sangsaka Worship berikutnya, mereka berdua tampil santai, duduk di kursi, @sawiesoso memainkan gitar akustik, dan Wing memainkan gitar elektrik. Tweepop/sunshinecore banget lah. Eh. Dengan beberapa artwork digambar di kertas seukuran A3 di meja hidang peralatan mereka. Ho. Berbeda dengan performance mereka sebelumnya di Mary Jane Studio beberapa minggu sebelumnya, yang kental aura kosmik-psikadelik, penampilan kali ini kental dengan nuansa India, saya sih nangkepnya gitu, dengan irama vokal seperti orang mengaji. Dan dua orang teman di sebelah saya juga sedang ngobrol masalah India, karena salah satunya ada yang mau iseng main ke India. Cool.

Terror/incognita, aka @_r13, sesepuh scene Kota Semarang, yang karena sedang berada di Jakarta bisa turut memeriahkan pesta ini, tampil berikutnya. Dengan bermodal standard yamaha mixer MG10/2 dan hercules condenser microphone C-01, doi lah yang bisa membuat hampir semua pemirsa menutup telinga mereka! Bising di frekuensi tinggi! Noise primitif, aksi duel mic dengan ampli, dengan sesekali teriakan, dan diakhiri dengan #goyangsenggamacore dengan ampli, tapi pluk, mic-nya lepas! Hehe. BRO, NOISE AS FVCK BRO! \m/

Kalimayat. @danifpradana, dedengkot Deathtiwikrama Records, kali ini berkolaborasi dengan rekannya di doom-all-stars Sabedarah, @bujubuneng. @danifpradana memproduksi suara dari iPad, dan MacBook Pro, entah diapaain. Ga keliatan. @bujubuneng beraksi sama seperti kalau dia perform dengan Sabedarah, main efek dan vokal yang sayangnya nyaris tidak terdengar, tentu dengan aksi teatrikal kalo ga boleh dibilang kayak orang kesurupan, hehe.

Duck Dive. Uh, kita istirahat dari harsh-noise sejenak. Kita bepergian dulu di alam psikadelik/nu-disco racikan @gounzeau sambil menganggukangguk kepala, goyang kanan kiri. Beliau ini yang santer dengan peralatan analognya, yang entah apa deh namanya. Lampu dimatikan biar makin kerasa mungkin, pikir orang yang mematikan lampu. :D

Nah, kali ini kita kedatangan tamu seorang dosen musik berkebangsaan Polandia, pernah berkolaborasi dengan Bapak Masami Akita, pernah mengajar di Jepang, kerjaannya keliling dunia juga, emang udah agak berumur sih, Bapak Zbigniew Karkowski. Susah kan ngejanya :P. Memainkan harsh-noise dengan MacBook Pro dan entah alat apa namanya, yang hanya Bembi yang bisa jelasin.

Mati Gabah Jasus, dari Bandung, sebagai satu-satunya perfomer yang memakai pedal, klasik bukan? @riarrr di sesi olah pedal dan vokal, dan @regarong, satu-satunya performer wanita, di sesi tiup terompet :3. Liar, seperti namanya @riarrr, agresif, berbahaya, senggol sana kemari, teriak marah-marah, banting mic, telungkup di kolong meja, mukulin dinding, RAW AS FVCK (lagi)! Sayang suara terompetnya tenggelam di bawah lautan amarah. Apa sih?

Caves. Kalau kata @_r13, dia ternganga dengan peralatan mereka, elektron machinedrum + monomachine, nordrack, eventide looper. Sedangkan, kalau kata @wastedrockers, Caves main minimal-techno, ambient-house. Enak kan menulis sambil mengutip :D. Tidak berisik dan enak buat ending. Uh! Seminggu sebelumya, saya melihat kolaborasi mereka, Caves dengan Jirapah dan Duckdive, dan performance malam ini beda. Lebih ”noise” kali ini. Kalau kata salah satu personelnya, yang tidak ikut bermain karena menjaga lapak cd dan mengambil dokumentasi, yang kalau dia main @regarong tidak menjadi satu-satunya performer wanita, Caves main sesuai tema acaranya, bila minggu lalu ber-nu-disco, sekarang bisalah main agak-agak berisik. Oooo .. #azekk

Udah ah. video oleh @_r13, foto dan cerita oleh saya :3

Duck Dive Live At Mindzapp – July 9th 2011
W_Music

Having featured Duck Dive in the Jakarta’s Yummy Underbelly series, I was intrigued to hear this talented musician perform a 20 minute medley of ‘Carbon‘, ‘Inner Projections‘, ‘Vimana‘ in a recent show in South Jakarta. Duck Dive performed this medley as part of [MINDZAPP] – A Night of Altered Noise and Lost Frequencies, a show curated by the good guys at Studiorama which also featured other experimental noise artists from all across Java (and Poland!): Kalimayat, Terror/Incognita (Semarang), Mati Gabah Jasus (Bandung), Zbigniew Karkowski (Poland), Sangsaka Worship, Individual Distortion and C ∆ V ∑ S. Yeah I know it’s a lot of noise, but yum yum yum

it happened on menteng to manggarai one-way bridge, central jakarta. you guys should try it, drive your car on the afternoon (around 6 o'clock) through jalan surabaya, then point your car toward manggarai. you'll find this 'polisi cepek' asshole who asks for your penny. in return, he will "help" you to turn left in the middle of road congestion, which is fucking pointless because everyone can do it by themselves. it's ok, all people need jobs, they need to eat. although his work is useless. i do tolerate it....until...seen in this video, I have denied this asshole many times but he keeps asking me for money until i lost it and yelled at him lol. fuck jakarta.

i dig this song, Harvey Danger were a one hit wonder pop-punk band from Seattle, America. I finally saw their video "Fragpole Sitta" for the second time in my whole life, while the first one was back then when i was still on the 5th grade. i just got back home from elementary school, turned on the TV and Channel [V] was playing on RCTI Channel, this video popped up. awesome. as far as i recall, the lead singer looks like the barenaked ladies lead singer haha. i used to heard this song several times on a radio. "Fragpole Sitta" (some people called it "Paranoia") were also appeared on the movie "Disturbing Behavior" which starring James Marsden, Nick Stahl, and the un-tomcruised Katie Holmes.

fuckin' nostalgic.

Formerly known as Loud, Sigmun performed at Studiorama's first edition.

Like bringing high-gain amplifiers and drums into a cave. That’s how Loud describe their own sound, and I don’t think I can find a better description than that. Beside playing their own ominous songs like the one above, this LA Lights Indiefest 2009 regional finalist have also covered Black Sabbath songs so good, even Mr. Iommi would be proud. Let’s just say hello to Indonesia’s own princes of darkness. Oh, by the way, they are not proud with the fact that they have competed in that aforementioned band competition. - Reno Nismara of Rolling Stone INA

Udanwatu

2011-02-14T15:26:00.004+07:00

Udanwatu is an open-source collaboration project initiated by Adit Bujbunen Al Buse. This project has been on since 2-3 years ago.

Udanwatu are :

Adit Bujbunen Al Buse (Karbala bukan fatamorgana, Sabedarah)
Adythia Utama (Individual Distortion, Depriver)
Danif Pradana (Kalimayat, Khuruksetra, Sabedarah)
Dede (Serigala Jahanam, Ledakan Urbanisasi)
Embun Munggarani (Hairdresser on Fire)
Halim Budiono (Cranial Incisored)
Kanika Lo (Kanika)
Morgue Vanguard (ex-Homicide, Trigger Mortis)
Reza August (Hairdresser on Fire, Zarr)
Rully Sabhara (ZOO)
Uri Putra (Ghaust, GATT, Bertanduk, Sabedarah)

Tidak pernah terbayangkan oleh saya sebelumnya bahwa sebuah kolaborasi jarak jauh bisa menghasilkan bentuk karya seperti ini. Rasanya sedikit mustahil bila mengingat jarak adalah kendala terbesar dalam berkomunikasi. Walaupun begitu, seniman maupun musisi yang terlibat dalam proyek ini justru mampu mengeksekusi proyek ini dengan begitu baik.

Udanwatu - Durjana Saya Sempurna, adalah rilisan pertama di Indonesia yang menampilkan kolaborasi open-source dari berbagai musisi/sound-artist lokal lintas genre dalam menciptakan sebuah karya sonic literature yang konseptual.

Setiap track dalam rilisan ini ditata dengan begitu rapi layaknya sebuah bab pada buku. Kita bisa merasakan sensasi ketegangan sebuah cerita dari prologue, sonic-assault, hingga post-traumatic ambience.

Saya mengumpamakan Udanwatu sebagai sebuah "Secret Society": sekumpulan hidup yang beroperasi dalam kegelapan—dimana setiap masing-masing dari para anggotanya meleburkan diri ke masyarakat umum. Tapi mereka memiliki kehidupan yang berbeda antara satu dengan yang lainnya. Mereka adalah seniman/musisi yang berkarya dalam lingkup genrenya masing-masing.

Tapi, di balik semua itu, masing-masing dari anggota "Secret Society" tersebut tergabung dalam sebuah "Brotherhood"—atau mungkin lebih kerennya lagi sebuah "Order". Dan ini layaknya seperti "The Order of Sonic Assassins"—yang mana setiap anggotanya mempunyai tujuan yang sama, yaitu menciptakan sebuah virus "Sonic Masochist Entertainment" yang akan disebarkan ke masyarakat umum.

Uniknya, setiap anggota dari "Secret Society" ini tidak pernah bertatap muka secara langsung. Semua proses berjalan dari kejauhan—mengingat semua anggotanya tidak pernah melakukan pengerjaannya secara bersamaan.

Dan media internet di sini ibaratnya adalah seekor burung merpati pengantar pesan. Ia mengantarkan sebuah misi yang harus dieksekusi oleh para anggota "Order" yang terlibat. Begitu pengeksekusian telah dilaksanakan, si burung merpati akan kembali mengantar pesan kemenangan tersebut kepada sang "Leader". Namun sang eksekutor tidak pernah bertemu atau bertatap muka langsung dengan sosok "Leader" pengirim tugas eksekusi.

Kurang lebih seperti itulah proses kreatif dari Udanwatu. Sebuah band dengan personil tanpa jasad. Semuanya personilnya bersembunyi di balik kegelapan. Di sini, para personilnya berperang di sonic territory mereka masing-masing berdasarkan komando yang diberikan oleh Aditya Saputra, sebagai "Leader" dan konseptor dari Udanwatu. Satu materi disebarkan keseluruh anggota "Order" untuk kemudian diacak-acak dan diracik sedemikian rupa hingga menghasilkan sebuah virus kehancuran yang sempurna.

Materi yang dikirim oleh Adit seumpama "Letter of Assassination" yang mengharuskan setiap anggota "Order" untuk menaruh noda darah mereka sebagai bukti bahwa mereka telah menjalankan eksekusi tugasnya. Hasil dari eksekusi tersebut adalah sebuah manifestasi kebisingan yang pada akhirnya melebur menjadi satu "entitas" yang tersendiri. Dan "entitas" tersebut adalah track-track yang terepresentasi dalam rilisan ini.

Setiap track memiliki suasana dan atmosfer yang berbeda. Semuanya tereksekusikan dengan begitu konseptual—sesuai dengan tujuan awal dari pengeksekusian ini. Masing-masing personil dari proyek ini mempunyai metode eksekusi mereka masing-masing. Namun hal tersebut bukanlah untuk menunjuk siapa mereka, tapi lebih dari itu, untuk menegaskan kehancuran macam apa yang telah mereka hasilkan pada setiap track yang ada.

Happy New Year and R.I.P. My Student Card

2011-01-01T04:19:00.008+07:00

yesterday was the last day of the year 2010, it was also the last day of my student card validity. which means, yesterday was the last time for me being a student haha. this card has been accompanying me for the last five years. in addition to proof my identity as a student and borrow books in the library, this card also has functions to get a discount when i buy a concert ticket (despite it's bad shape unlike any other student cards). so to honor my student card services, at the end of its life, i'm going to use its funtion for the last time. so i went to the mall near my house, Gandaria City, with the intent to seek student card discounts. i couldn't find any, until....DOMINOS, my fave pizza evar, has a 10% student price discounts. the discounts were only available from monday to friday. FRIDAY! perfect! and it only lasts until 5 PM! it was almost 16:45 PM. I immediately ordered cheesy bread, my fave side dish ever from dominos pizza.haha they even wrote my student number on the waiting list.this is cheesy bread (i know, bad cropping, sorry). the 10% discount just save me as much as 2.500 rupiahs only, but thanks, you've done a lot of things to me, card. it's time for me to step to the next level, adulthood, work work work and purchase goods without discount. bye bye student life.Rest In Peace, pal.

For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge

2010-09-29T17:52:00.007+07:00

For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge, mathcore, hardcore, chaotic hardcore, metalcore, southern rock, etc you name it. I've known this band since 2006 when myspace was still a sidestream social networking (in indonesia). There's this myspace forum group named "J-Town Hardcore" where i met a lot of cool people and bands from the local hardcore scene and "For The Flames Beneath Your Bridge" is one of them. They used to wore some fashioncore stuffs like white belt, emo haircuts, and girljeans. I've also listened to their earlier stuff (i forgot the title but it has a long song title), it sounds like From Autumn To Ashes or such. But things are changing, their debut album titled "LXX.VII" is just released months ago. The newer stuff reminds me of Converge and Norma Jean with a southern rock influence. Awesome. and finally i have a chance to saw them live for the first time last saturday at the event "In Loving Memory Of Joneh (1982-2010)" (R.I.P. Brother) in Rossi, Jakarta. I recorded their song "Gluttony". Check it out.

(FUCK YEAH I DIG VELVET UNDERGROUND!) it's going to be held at museum of mind, surabaya. too bad i couldn't attend the event (yea, another final assignment deadline crap thing). there will be some great artists there such as Isha Hening, Phleg, Gembira Putra Agam, Aghastyo Ghalis, Ican Harem, et cetera. thanks to Anitha Silvia for inviting me!

i'm doing a silly video for my stupid remix of "who loves the sun", the song that really relates to my life (back then LOL). this video project is going to be named `who loves "who loves the sun"?` stay tune. gonna upload the video, and also the remixed song soon. i don't wanna spoil the exhibition yet hahaha.

Alternative rock with shoegaze influenced band from Jakarta. If you like Amusement Parks On Fire, Dinosaur Jr., or The Appleseed Cast, you would dig barefood.

Noisy hardcore punk from Portland, US. Sounds like Jesus and Mary Chain suddenly turns hardcore with Alice Glass of Crystal Castles on vocals. Fuck Yeah.

no, this is not that shoegaze band from UK. this one's a band fronted by Dennis Lyxzén (of Refused, The (International) Noise Conspiracy, AC4), the other members included Jon Brännström (also of Refused, and TEXT), and Saidiwas member.

last night was great. i attended Peaches concert at indochine, yep Peaches, that sick electroclash fatherfucker lol. even though there wasn't any backup band but a guitar, projector, outfit, fan operator, she still rocked the stage alone.look at her flashing crotch lol.
anyway, she performed these songs last night :
fuckin dark eh?
my fave parts was when she played guitar on "Boys Wanna Be Her" and when she performed "rock n' roll", where she pretended that she sick and spitted some water to the crowd. not to mention i grabbed peaches fake boobs last night lol.

shit robot also performed last night, but i'm not really into DFA kind of music. i prefer Ed Banger, DFA Records fucks with Death From Above 1979 and ruined Black Dice music *from noisecore into sound collage? c'mon*.
