Abstract

Goong Renteng Panggugah Manah is a Sundanese karawitan ensemble of more than two centuries old, located in Sukamulya Village, Cigugur Subdistrict, Kuningan Regency, West Java. As a sacred gamelan inherited from Abah Raksajaya and acquired in 1792, this group faces sustainability challenges amid the currents of modernization and the shifting interest of younger generations toward popular music. This study aims to analyze the regeneration process taking place within the Goong Renteng Panggugah Manah arts group. The research employs a qualitative-ethnographic approach through participant observation, in-depth interviews with cultural practitioners, and documentary study. The findings reveal that regeneration occurs through three principal pathways, namely the kinship pathway of the Raksajaya family, the community pathway involving students and the general public, and the institutional collaboration pathway. These findings contribute to the discourse on community-based traditional music preservation in Indonesia.

Abstract

This article documents a practice-led compositional project in which two jazz compositions were developed through temporal and melodic constraints derived from immersive listening to Japanese gagaku. Rather than borrowing repertoire, instrumentation, or stylistic surface, the project targets a specific compositional habit: the default use of 16- and 32-bar periodicity. Comparative listening informed constraints around pitch-centre anchoring without functional cadence, rotating pitch cells, near-unison texture, and acceleration perceived retrospectively. Two contrasting pieces, one in swing and one in bossa nova, translate these constraints through altered phrase lengths, delayed harmonic rhythm, and melody-led formal organisation. Lead-sheet excerpts and short audio examples demonstrate how listening-derived constraints can reshape jazz compositional process while remaining performable and improvisation-friendly. The article contributes to music creation studies by demonstrating how intercultural listening can serve as a compositional method without necessitating stylistic imitation or fusion.

Abstract

This study examines the symbolic meaning and social critique contained in the song “Singkong dan Keju,” popularized by the Indonesian band Bill & Brod, using Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutic theory. The aim of this study is to analyze how the song’s lyrics represent social class inequality, consumerism, and cultural identity in Indonesian society, particularly during the 1980s, as well as their relevance to contemporary social conditions. This study employs a qualitative method with an analysis adapted from Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutic theory. In its stages, I utilize four phases of analysis: naive understanding, symbolic interpretation, distancing, and philosophical reflection. The findings indicate that the symbolic opposition between cassava and cheese, jaipong and disco, as well as local and global cultures, reflects social stratification, economic disparities, and the influence of global consumerist thought. Furthermore, this song depicts the marginalization experienced by the lower class while simultaneously critiquing the consumerist lifestyle of the bourgeoisie. This study also found that the song remains relevant in understanding contemporary phenomena such as flexing on social media, symbolic consumption, and the construction of social identity. Therefore, this study contributes to the fields of popular music studies, the sociology of music, and cultural studies by highlighting the role of music in reflecting social interactions and offering a profound critique of Indonesian society’s lifestyle.
