Right now I'm pretty much into the Deftones' latest album, Koi No Yokan.
In the Indonesian music industry there's a word that has been used frequently---a bit too frequently, maybe---and sadly inappropriately: go-international.
VIVE LE ROCK
Every Thursday 6-8pm (Bali time)
Rebel Radio Indonesia
One of the most respected bands from the 90's era, rumahsakit, are back from the dead with their newest album, 1+2.
My new weekly radio program on Rebel Radio Indonesia:
He has chosen to live a rock-n-roll life and spins reggae tunes now, instead of pursuing his previous brilliant career as a hotelier. Following his heart seems to have worked out well.
Well, I actually don't really listen to any particular album these days. At the moment I'm working intensely on songs for my project ESQI:EF (Syaharani & Queenfireworks).
Terakhir kali menghentak khalayak lewat Magnet! Magnet! pada 2009, grup new wave asal Jakarta ini akhirnya muncul kembali di senja warsa 2012 dengan album tergresnya bertajuk Katalika.
There are many things that you don't know about this lady rocker-cum-World Music Diva.
Always been and always will: Rock. Now like to listen again to old Hole albums.
Setelah relatif sukses menggedor blantika musik Indonesia lewat Released by Reality pada 2009, tiga tahun berselang, Ray D'Sky kembali datang.
Seringai's Taring. Over and over and over. Best purchase I've made this year.
This is the band that I'm currently in love with. They'll be coming to my town in January. Yesyesyes, I surely will go see 'em. If they come to your city, I suggest you go, too. Why? Here's one solid confession from an eyewitness:
There should've been, at minimum, 3 bands to explode from Bali: Superman Is Dead, Navicula and Kaimsasikun.
Mostly rock and metal. I'm kind of stuck in 60's to 90's music hehe... I don't really follow current music trend. Plus I'm not really listening to radios or watching TVs anymore.
