Abstract

The role of music in political campaigns has become an increasingly significant phenomenon in Indonesia. Music not only acts as a means of strengthening political identity, but also as a tool for mass mobilization, political expression and the formation of public opinion. In the context of political campaigns, theme songs become symbols of the vision and values promoted by political parties, while political concerts become an opportunity to voice political aspirations and build mass support. Music is also used as a medium to express political and social views, where various musical genres such as rock, punk and hip-hop are used by musicians to voice dissatisfaction with political and social conditions in Indonesia. Song lyrics often contain political messages that reflect the views of a particular political party or social movement, helping to shape the political views and attitudes of listeners. Apart from that, music is also a tool to represent local political and cultural identities, strengthen social ties, and mobilize the masses at the regional level. However, political expression through music is also faced with challenges such as restrictions on freedom of expression and the risk of repression against musicians who are critical of the government. Therefore, it is important for governments and society to ensure that freedom of expression is respected and that musicians have space to express their political views without fear of repression. In this way, music can continue to be a positive force in political and social formation in Indonesia, helping to strengthen democracy and community involvement in the political process.

Abstract

The Industrial Revolution 4.0 has changed the way political parties build and maintain their brands, with digital and social media becoming the main tools in political communication strategies. Media capitalism, characterized by the concentration of media ownership in the hands of large conglomerates, influences the political landscape by reducing the diversity of perspectives in reporting and giving rise to significant bias. Media controlled by capitalist interests tend to provide favorable coverage to political parties with ties or affiliations with media owners, influencing voter perceptions and election results. Additionally, social media algorithms designed to maximize engagement and advertising revenue often amplify controversial and emotional content, exacerbating political polarization and spreading misinformation. Fake information that spreads rapidly through social media platforms disrupts the democratic process and undermines the integrity of elections. To overcome the negative impacts of media capitalism, efforts are needed to maintain media independence and integrity through support for investigative journalism and independent media, as well as stricter and more transparent regulations to reduce the concentration of media ownership. Media education is also important for increasing media literacy among the public, helping voters recognize false information and understand media bias. Collaboration between government, the media industry, non-governmental organizations and civil society is needed to create a healthy and sustainable media ecosystem, where digital technology is used to strengthen democratic processes.
