Abstract

This article examines the relationship between sound and religion focusing on mediated religion and the transformation of sonic sensation. It studies a Javanese children’s song (tembang dolanan) called Ilir-Ilir (Javanese pronunciation: [iler iler]) which is an example of a Javanese song bearing a deep philosophy, richness of interpretations, and modes of presentation. Examining the Javanese song Ilir-ilir, this paper examines the two dimensions of the song and the transformation of tembang dolanan into the Islamic ones through the meaning-making and sonic dimension to generate Islamic sensation. The analysis goes beyond the textual tradition -in case of the song i.e., lyrics and textual dimension of the song- as looking at the interpretation of the song and the sonic atmosphere of sound. The article further argues that the transformation Javanese Ilir-ilir delivers an important insight of relationship between sound and religion as to which sound contributes to the making of religious sensation and reverberates the mediated religion through sensational form.
