about

The very first debut EP of the then-called Senyawa. Recorded during their first jam after their encounter at Wukir's performance at Yes No Klub show. This recording was intended by Rully Shabara as part of his collaboration series with his fellow musician.

Senyawa embodies the aural elements of traditional Indonesian music while exploring an experimental music practice, pushing the boundaries of both traditions. Their music strikes a perfect balance between their avant-garde influences and cultural heritage to create truly contemporary Indonesian new music.

Their sound is comprised of Rully Shabara’s deft extended vocal techniques punctuating the frenetic sounds of instrument builder, Wukir Suryadi’s modern-primitive instrumentation. Inventions like his handcrafted ‘Bamboo Spear’; a thick stem of bamboo strung up with percussive strips of the animal skin along side steel strings. Amplified it fuses elements of traditional Indonesian instrumentation with garage guitar distortion. Sonically dynamic, the instrument can be rhythmically percussive on one side whilst being melodically bowed and plucked on the other.

Senyawa is responsible for open up Indonesian underground music to the worldwide scene.
