BALCONY -

New album from bandung hard-core band Balcony is out, I'll give you one track (with legendary Bandung band Homicide) if you want the whole album you'll have to buy it.....

GET IT HERE

A long time ago me and another Dutch guy were asked to organize a festival to celebrate the opening of a huge store from a very big surfer clothing brand. It was a huge succes, I asked Balcony to come and play as the last act, it was amazing, tens of thousands of people turned up, one of the main roads in Bandung, Jl. Juanda was just full of people... That new store wasn't very succesful though, they closed down within a year....



enjoy!

KARINDING ATTACK GERBANG KERAJAAN SERIGALA

Karinding Attack is in my humble opinion the most original, and live the greatest band active in Indonesia at this moment. That's a pretty big statement with all the incredible bands active right now, I've seen these guys live a couple of times and I'm a big fan of what they're doing. All members come out of the (Bandung) punk/hard-core scene and they're making music with traditional Sundanese instruments. They just put their cd out and the whole cd is great, very much like the Residents at times, I just love this stuff... They're beginning to get quiet a following among Bandung youngsters and what is happening is that a lot of these kids start listening a lot to traditional music like kliningan, jaipong etc. which in my opinion is a very, very good thing as a lot of this kind of music has been forgotten by most of the two generations preceding them.....

I'm giving you one song from their cd:

Karinding Attack - Lapar Ma!
