What could be a better way to celebrate the New Year than with a special Dance episode of New Music from Indonesia? While I am putting up the strobe lights and disco ball in the studio, Jason has prepared three songs to make sure the party doesn't stop: DJ Riri's "True Dimension", DJ Anton's "Underground Trash" and Electronic Groove's "I Don't Wanna". Have a great one everybody and catch you in the New Year. 14:06, 7.4 MB.
It's that time of year again and we decided to celebrate with a special Christmas episode of New Music from Indonesia. We recently acquired a large catalog of traditional music from label Gema Nada Pertiwi and were very happy to find a whole bunch of Christmas songs inside. We feature local renditions of two international favorites: "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" from "Bamboo for Christmas" and "Silent Night" from "Christmas in Bali" and one local Batak song "Marolopolop Hamu, Ale (Full of Joy)" from "Christmas in Toba". Hope you enjoy it and the very best Christmas wishes from all of us at Equinox DMD. 12:32, 6.52 MB.
Jakarta-born and New York-based ballad singer Andrini is in town this month promoting her debut album "Waiting for Tomorrow" and we managed to get her into the studio for a lively chat about her songs, inspirations and most importantly her love life. We feature two songs: her hit single "So in Love" and "Waiting for Tomorrow". 17:48, 8.9 MB.
The typical Indonesian movie usually has something to do with the supernatural (graveyards, haunted houses, ghosts etc.) but when you look a little deeper there are some real gems to be found. This episode features two movies, "Berbagi Suami" and "Janji Joni" and one play, "Gallery of Kisses". While you can't download the full movie yet, you can sample and purchase their incredible soundtracks on iTunes. Jason features three songs in this special episode: "Bengawan Solo" by Sore from "Berbagi Suami", "(I Got) Johnny in my Head" by Teenage Death Star from "Janji Joni" and "No Questions, No Answers" by Sujiwo Tejo and Syaharani from "Gallery of Kisses".
Eastern Promise Bar and Restaurant in South Jakarta is quickly becoming the place for Jakarta's indie bands to play. Jason discovered one them a few months back and knew we had to get these guys on iTunes and in the studio for a podcast. Ritz from EVACUATE COWBOYS talks about the Australian formation of their band and the god-like influence of Maynard James Keenan. We feature two songs: "Kematian Nurani" and "Fatamorgana" from their 2006 debut album "Hena". 16:29, 8.4 MB.
