About

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.

The members of Fleetwood Mac were experiencing emotional upheavals while recording "Dreams". Mick Fleetwood was going through a divorce. Christine McVie was separating from her husband John McVie. Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were ending their eight-year relationship; Stevie Nicks and Mick Fleetwood had just started an affair. What made it more complicated and worse was that all the band members were so addicted to cocaine during the production of the album, Rumours. Hard drugs, bad romances, excellent album.
Modjorido-groupBWx
Grup cadas MODJORIDO baru saja merilis single perdana di bawah Pohon Tua Creatorium bertajuk "Revolt". Single ini, menurut sang biduan Rico Mahesi, bisa dimaknai sebagai evolusi, pertanda kebangkitan, kembali menggairahkan musik rock, juga, selayaknya spirit musik rock yang dekat dengan pemberontakan.
Manja-2020-KebonVintage
Seolah ogah kehilangan momentum, Manja kembali menyentak lewat komposisi “Games We Play” Setelah sebelumnya meluncurkan single pertama “Rise” belum lama ini dan disambut amat baik oleh publik.

Not exactly sexy, it’s not funny and they’re not going to be rolling around in mud like the Slits; but it’s the closest thing to art that "post-punk"… has offered in a while.

"I'm going home," she said. "Where's home to you?" he asked. "My house?" she said, confused, and laughed a little. "Home isn't a place," he paused, "it's a colour, a song, a scent, a feeling, a person, that first sip of good whisky, but it's not a place."
PTCcirc
Fenomena yang sedang menggejala pada label rekaman Pohon Tua Creatorium (PTC) belakangan ini relatif mirip dengan kejadian pada awal 90an di wilayah Thames Valley, London. Para musisi skena indie—didominasi pegiat shoegaze—kerap kongkow-kongkow di area tersebut, saling mendatangi konser satu sama lain, meminjam personel, tukar menukar anggota, mengisi posisi lowong antar band: The Scene That Celebrates Itself.
CJoseph
Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce peoples surrenders to U.S. General Nelson A. Miles in the Bear Paw mountains of Montana, declaring “Hear me, my chiefs: My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.”
