Abstract

Congwayndut is one of the puppet groups whose performances depart from the traditional wayang (puppetry) style. The wayang play itself belongs to the comedy genre. Nevertheless, the stories presented are still adopted from the stories of Ramayana and Mahabarata. There are some interesting things to be used as discourse materials from Congwayndut, whose accompaniment belongs to the so-called keroncong music, while the duration of the music is shortened to two or three hours. The sanggit of the Ramayana and Mahabarata puppet stories are also interpreted humorouslyand “exibly. This paper reveals the musical facts in the puppet group, that keroncong music is able to give its own impression as pakeliran music. Then, the celloin keroncong music is able to provide a distinctive aesthetic touch toaccompany the war scene. Besides that, it also discussed the performance sketches of the Congwayndut group.Keywords: congwayndut, wayang keroncong, innovative shadow puppet.

Abstract

The music carried by the Solo Beatbox Community has its own attraction in the form of a musical imitation of a show. Imitating the sound of musical instruments with mouth, i.e. playing music without using real musical instruments, the sound produced was almost indistinguishable to that of the original instrument. This uniqueness raises the aspects regarding the existence of the group’s performances whose by all means are inseparable from the works presented to the audience. Social media plays an important role in the development of their community, from promotions to publications on the Solo Beatbox Community. In order to get their stage, the Solo Beatbox Community uses the gethok tular (‘word of mouth’, ‘viva voice’) method to facilitate their access toward the upcoming shows. Member regeneration is also one of the efforts to prevent this community from dying out. They have elements in the conceptualization of their work that is based on the type and concept of the event in question, as well as the musical trends that are popular with the public. This triggered the existence of the Solo Beatbox Community show.Keywords: Solo Beatbox Community, The concept of creating Solo Beatbox Community.

Abstract

This paper contains the actualization of resistance symbols contained in the performances of Trahgali Soulja, a hip-hop music group based in Surakarta. This includes reviewing the audience’s response to the music performed. The problems that arise are (1) the efforts of the Soulja Trahgali music group in constructing the symbols of resistance, (2) the form of actualization of ideas or the construction of symbols through the stage actions performed by Trahgali Soulja that illustrate the ideology of resistance, and ( 3) audience’s response to the stage action offered by Trahgali Soulja. The production and packaging of Trahgali Soulja’s performances are carried out on the backstage/back region - including the discovery of musical ideology, the process of interpreting the ideology of resistance, and the behind-the-scene communications among players. Then a scenario for the performance is employed in the stage action on the front stage/front region, and of course there are elements to support the performances being prepared. The positive response is shown by the audience with the emergence of the Red Ax Soldier community which supports the entire behavior of Trahgali Soulja, and not even rarely did this community adopt the musical behavior of Trahgali Soulja. In addition, social media such as Facebook, YouTube and Instagram also become the showrooms for this group’s hip-hop songs.Keywords: actualization, symbol of resistance, hip-hop music performances, trahgali soulja.

Abstract

Boedi Pramono’s creativity as the creator of the Hip Hop KM 7 group is by combining Javanese traditional music with hip hop music. This paper reviews from the beginning of Boedi Pramono’s artistic career until the formation of Hip Hop KM 7. The problems that arise are (1) Revealing and explaining the formation and structure of Hip Hop KM 7’s music, (2) Explaining the creative process of Hip Hop KM 7’s music. To answer such problems, this research employs qualitative research methods by studying empiricism, trying to be able to express objectively which is more oriented towards the field of textual research, with the addition of Bambang Sunarto’s concept of the creative process in art. The creative process of art is the process of finding the constructive elements of art in regards with (1) the artist’s belief in creating the artwork, (2) the vocabulary and the artistic model, (3) the artistic concepts and (4) the artistic models, which are then used as means to create the artwork, thus answering the question. This article reveals that: firstly, the musical form presented by Hip Hop KM 7 is a digital-based music enriched with gamelan idioms and in general Javanese traditional music. Here, the musical structure is divided into two musical impressions, namely the West and the Traditional music. Secondly, Boedi Pramono with his musical creativity formed Hip Hop KM 7 from a thickly artistic environment and later included the traditional element and further the traditional dance to the hip hop music.Keywords: Hip-hop Jawa, Hip-hop Km 7, Hip hop Yogyakarta.

Abstract

The traditional music and performing arts in the ASEAN have found new powerful conduits of transmission with the advent of the digital age. Although claims of cultural ownership over music and dance occasionally appear on social networks and media platforms, the ubiquity of the Internet has in fact benefitted the general public, allowing them access to images and sounds hitherto unknown. Modernisation has taken its toll on the region’s musical heritage. Ancient elements of indigenous music have faded away. The influx of popular and Western music has increasingly eroded the space and demand for traditional music. Many orchestras in the region feature diverse musical instruments tuned to a common Western tuning system, thus relinquishing their Asian musical roots. The fusion of Asian musical ensembles with Western musical instruments has forced the tuning of gongs, xylophones, metallophones, and singing to the Western diatonic scale, losing their indigenous resonances, sonorities, and timbres. Urbanisation and the migration of the young into urban areas disrupted the discontinuity in generational transmission of music. Village rituals and ceremonies play an important role in preserving ancient religious systems where music, dance, and theatre were essential as part of agricultural life, trance and curing rites, and communal well-being. The onslaught of mass media and the Internet has also accentuated the de-sacralisation of ritual spaces, leaving many musical traditions behind as memories of the past.Keywords: traditional music, urbanisation, de-sacralisation, memories, ASEAN.
