EMBRACE THE MUSIC

No need to be ecstatic in welcoming 2021. Let’s keep it quietly. We, human being are fragile and vulnerable. Covid has almost killed us all. So, yeah, just stay calm. And embrace the music.

What I’ve learned this year, this pandemic has showed us—the most brutal way—how vulnerable we are, how fragile we are. We basically lost. Here today I’m not gonna be ecstatic and saying something like “Bring it on, 2021!” or “Show me whatchu got, 2021!”. Let’s keep it quietly.

And I just believe, always believe, that music helps. Music can be used to shift moods, to acknowledge sadness, to release anger, to seize a little happiness.

Embrace the music—sip some good whisky first; to stay sane and sensible.

Happy New Year. Hello you, 2021.

Rudolf Dethu

Music journalist, writer, radio DJ, socio-political activist, creative industry leader, and a qualified librarian, Rudolf Dethu is heavily under the influence of the punk rock philosophy. Often tagged as this country’s version of Malcolm McLaren—or as Rolling Stone Indonesia put it ‘the grand master of music propaganda’—a name based on his successes when managing Bali’s two favourite bands, Superman Is Dead and Navicula, both who have become two of the nation’s biggest rock bands.
