Senyawa (Ritual Community Music‪)‬ Liquid Architecture

    • Comentários de música

Folk, Noise, Electronics, Improvisation – how can radical music help us manifest new possibilities for thinking and imagine new ways of organising community through ritual behaviours, actions and languages?

Rully and Wukir of Senyawa talk through the stories, languages and sounds explored through their collaboration; the power of music performance and distribution to form social connection; and what to expect from their upcoming shows for Liquid Architecture and Soft Centre.

Senyawa are a seminal outfit in Indonesia’s thriving avant-garde music scene having navigated unexplored musical terrain for more than a decade. The duo have developed a hybrid sound, that weaves the tribal and primitive with industrial timbres and folkloric storytelling. Their sound is comprised of Rully Shabara’s deft extended vocal explorations punctuating the frenetic sounds of Wukir Suryadi’s self-built instrumentation. During the pandemic, Senyawa released the new album 'Alkisah' with over 40 labels around the world.
