Abstract

The evolution of contemporary music has created a tension between universal moral demands and artistic expressive freedom. This study analyzes this dialectic through the philosophical lenses of Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Nietzsche. Kant emphasizes aesthetics as a universal experience bound by morality, while Nietzsche liberates art from traditional conventions in favor of transgressive creative expression. The research examines radical works such as 4'33" (John Cage) and atonal music (Schoenberg) as rejections of classical aesthetic norms. The findings demonstrate that contemporary music becomes an arena for clashing values between Kantian moral order and Nietzschean deconstruction of traditional values. This conflict reflects the modern cultural dilemma of either maintaining universal principles or embracing boundless creative freedom. Using a qualitative philosophical approach, this study highlights contemporary music's dual role as both social critique and aesthetic experiment that transforms artistic paradigms.

Abstract

This research examines how Siantar Rap Foundation (SRF) integrates traditional Batak musical elements into the modern hip hop genre through creative musical practices. SRF does not merely adopt hip hop as a global trend, but also fuses it with Batak identity and values through the selection of instruments, musical arrangement, the use of Batak-language lyrics, and the strengthening of visual identity in every performance. Using a qualitative method and an ethnomusicological approach, this research explores the mechanisms of cultural integration in SRF’s works and their impact on the cultural identity of Batak youth. The findings reveal that SRF has successfully created a phenomenon of musical hybridity that is relevant to contemporary developments and capable of reaching national and even global audiences. Through strategies such as consistent music production, live performances in various cities, digital media utilization, and the reinforcement of Batak visual culture, SRF demonstrates that hip hop music can serve as a dialogic space between local and global cultures. This study is expected to enrich the discourse on music, culture, and identity, as well as inspire other musicians to explore local culture through global music genres.

Abstract

The existence of traditional music in Mamanda Kutai theater art remains well-preserved by the Mamanda Panji Berseri group, as demonstrated by the consistent core patterns of piul and babon, as well as the relatively unchanged use of accompanying instruments. This preservation is particularly noteworthy given the significant developments observed in most other groups. This qualitative study aims to examine how the traditional Mamanda music ecosystem is systematically maintained by the Mamanda Panji Berseri group. The research employs a combination of desk and field methods, grounded in an ethnomusicological perspective. The findings indicate that various interrelated components within the ecosystem contribute to its sustainability, including learning systems, musicians and communities, contextual and structural frameworks, regulatory support and infrastructure, and the music industry. Furthermore, the study underscores that the role of the traditional Mamanda Kutai musical accompaniment ecosystem within the Mamanda Panji Berseri group still requires further optimization to enhance its long-term sustainability and broader impact.

Abstract

Modernization brings significant changes in various aspects of community life, including social, economic, political, and cultural, through the presence of technology. The city of Sibolga on the West Coast of North Sumatra is a multi-ethnic area, inhabited by Minang, Nias, Chinese, Javanese, and Batak Toba groups, with Batak Toba as one of the largest sub-ethnic groups. As times change, the Batak Toba community in Sibolga has also experienced the impact of modernization, especially in the implementation of the traditional saur matua ceremony. The modernization process encourages adjustments in the procedures of the ceremony to remain relevant to people's current lives. Some traditional elements are still maintained, but there are changes, especially in the aspect of traditional music which is now adapted to current needs and tastes. This study uses a qualitative ethnographic method to explore socio-cultural dynamics, especially the traditional music practices of the Batak Toba in the saur matua ceremony in Sibolga. The results of the research show that the change in music in this ceremony is influenced by the entry of Christian values, so that the community seeks to integrate religious teachings with tradition. The music used is now mixed, combining Western instruments with Batak musical instruments, and featuring a repertoire of Batak Toba instrumental music with modern compositions such as Palti Raja. This transformation has generated various community reactions, both support and criticism, which reflect the dynamics between the preservation of tradition and adaptation to the times.

Abstract

The research entitled "Creativity and Niniek's Role in Utilizing Used Goods into Music in Surakarta" is based on the phenomenon of the emergence of sounds from used goods. Innovation in engineering used goods and arrangement techniques carried out by Niniek are interesting aspects to be studied further. This research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, with Niniek S.M Daryonagoro as the main subject. To answer the formulation of the problem, this study utilizes Rhodes 4P creativity theory (person, process, press, and product) and the concept of individual roles according to Setyadi. The final stage after going through the analysis found several conclusions. Niniek's background growing up in an art environment played an important role in encouraging her creativity in developing music based on used goods. Niniek's consistency and creativity are reflected in the historical journey of the presence of used goods music. In addition, Niniek's role has been proven to be able to increase the interest of students and the Surakarta community in music, as well as providing indirect education regarding the use of used goods as a music medium through the performances held.

Abstract

This research aims to explore and describe in depth the influence of music on motor development in early childhood at POS PAUD ALMA Bakalan Village, Kalinyamatan, Jepara. The research method used is qualitative with participatory techniques, interviews, and content analysis of the data collected. Research participants involved PAUD teachers and early childhood children at POS PAUD ALMA. Data was collected through direct observation of children's activities when exposed to music, interviews with children and PAUD teachers, as well as content analysis of children's responses to musical experiences in the classroom. Data analysis resulted in the finding that the use of music in the context of early childhood education at ALMA PAUD POS has a positive impact on children's motoric development. Through music, children show improved gross and fine motor skills, as well as motor coordination abilities. Apart from that, music also creates a fun environment and motivates children to develop their motor skills. This research contributes to understanding the role of music as an effective learning tool and can help improve the motor skills of young children. The implications of this research can be the basis for further development in the context of early childhood education at POS PAUD and provide guidance to educational practitioners to integrate music more effectively in the learning process.
