ALI SABAN & TOPENG BANJET DAYA ASMARA - BALIK SUBUH

Here's a topeng banjet cassette from Ali Saban and his Topeng Banjet Daya Asmara group with Nyai Sumiati singing, and these cassettes are just so cool, Gugum Gumbira took a lot of the rhythms developed in the topeng banjet genre, and specially the stuff that Ali Saban was coming up with, in the development of the jaipong genre along with elements from the tayuban, kawih pencak and ronggeng gunung genres and he told me quiet a few times how important a person Ali Saban was in Sundanese traditional music..... M. A. Dimyati, the guy who was leading the Karawang Group was also involved with this here cassette.... This is pure Karawang greatness.... GET IT HERE Enjoy!
