MY INTERVIEW WITH HARISH MC UNEEK & CREW

Hello blogsphere!!! How y'all doin?!

#Mignonesia is back again after the long hiatus, bringing you the Mignonesia wishing you the latest updates from talented, one of the humble human beings we  honored to know, Harish MC Uneek!

Mignonesia had a chance to interviewed #Uneek last year. Here the flash back of our first interview and his great music and his brilliant answers during our interview, HERE

We are hapy to follow Uneek's progress and impressed with his music career achievements Uneek feat MC Mike,  is launcing a new song and we managed to arrange another online interview. Uneek has a lot of updates to share and here's our uncut full report of the interview with the blog host, Dita Mignonesia. :P. Enjoy!

Mignonesia: First, congrats for the new music video. I LOVE it! Thousands views on You Tube already, bravo! Kinda took a while for you to release the new song, wanna tell your fans why you kept them waiting? ):

Uneek: Thank you Dita. We're very glad the video did good. The delay had to do with me moving to a new city to pursue few career options. Took a while for me to come back to Hyderabad and start working on music again.

Mignonesia: I see many changes in this new video, the obvious change is that we see this "Uneek & MC Mike" in the title, what happened? Tell me more about it, is this another collaboration or you guys are a duo now?

Uneek: We've always been a crew. Even when we released our first video Second Chance. The Uneek & MC Mike title reinstates our equal efforts and dedication that we put into our music videos.

Mignonesia: I actually liked the chemistry you both have in this new video, I saw two stars collaborating. How do you guys felt about doing any creative projects together again?

Uneek & MC Mike:  The phase of making the video right from pre to post production is a celebration. We have worked on other music videos together as well, not released though. The next two months are going to be amazing as we plan to release as many as four music videos. It's a great experience to collaborate with other artists who share the same passion.

Mignonesia: I still have many questions but I will go with the creative process on the song first and it goes to you both, who wrote the lyrics? Was it a challenge to write lyrics for this collaboration?

Uneek: I penned down my verse's lyrics and likewise, Mike penned down his part.The creative challenge involved at this stage would be to find the right balance between our verses. We can't afford to overdo it or under do it either. There is a beautiful sense of coexistence that we aim to achieve through our lyrics whenever we collaborate. Collectively, this brings out the beauty in the song. Feels like our verses are so similar to each other, yet so different.

Mignonesia: Tell me more about the song, what's the story behind it, I read the opening line on the vid "Dedicated to Dad", is this your own personal story guys? What's the message you guys wanted to spread through the title "Make Believe"?

Uneek & Crew : I dedicated the video to my Dad as a token of my gratitude towards him. Last year has been difficult for me as I had to witness few unfortunate events that changed my understanding of life. Make Believe is what me, as a person and me and Mike, as a group, stand up against. We wanted to convey this noble gesture of standing up for yourself and staying genuine throughout all the stages of your life.

Mignonesia: Cant hold myself from asking this, question to Uneek; If I compare this new song lyrics with the lyrics on your previous songs; its still brill, you got the rhyme and all but I must say the lyrics sounds a lot more "simple" in this song yet much more "friendly" and catchy to the average listener like me for instance haha, what do you guys would say about that? were you somehow did a lil compromising to wider your audience?

Uneek & Crew: That has been a part of our agenda when we make songs. To make them widely understandable and relatable to also. We have made a few other songs where you'd see the lyricism is more complex in terms of terminology. We plan on depicting various levels of lyricism depending on the flow and feel of the song and also depending on what we want to convey.

Mignonesia: In my first interview, Uneek said that he would like to describe his music as an effort to bring out a positive change in its listeners, I see this idealism also continue in this new song, am I right? What you guys think about Indian rap music in general, I mean do their lyrics usually reflect some of India culture and values for instance?

Uneek & Crew : That conceptualization is evident in Make Believe. It's hard to try and change that because that was the sole reason why we, as artists, were inspired by music and wanted to convey something sensible every time we make a piece of art. I feel rap music in India has been doing better than it was a couple of years back. There are an increasing number of new breed artists opting rap and hip hop as a medium to convey how they feel. And that can only be positive since there is a sense of collaboration and community. And I think the lyrics do reflect bits and pieces of Indian culture a lot of times.

Mignonesia: I heard that new songs are coming soon, is it true? Can we get some leaks?How about their video concepts? Will there be some new innovation too?

Uneek and Crew : Yeah, great news for people who listen to our music. We have four music videos ready for release. The next few months would be great for us and for the listeners as well. Every music video we make has a new technical conceptualization as well as a new artistic vision. Really excited to release a few teaser trailers for the videos.

Teaser!

Thank you so much for the interview and everyone in your team. Here is MAKE BELIEVE everyone, enjoy!

What a quick sick rampage?

Whining and dining, drinking and driving, 

Excessive buying, overdosin', dying,

On our drugs and our love,

And our dreams and our rage.

Blurring the lines,

Between real and the fake.

Dark and lonely, ♥!

I need somebody to hold me.

We will do very well.

I can tell, I can tell,

Keep my safe in his bell, Tower, hotel.

Money is the anthem of success.

So put on mascara, And your party dress 

I'm your National Anthem

Boy, put your hands up,

Give me a standing ovation.

Boy, you have landed, 

Babe, in the land of, 

sweetness and danger, 

Queen of Saigon 

Tell me I'm your National Anthem, 

[Ooh, yeah, baby, bow down,]

[Making me so wow wow]

Tell me I'm your National Anthem.

[Sugar, sugar, how now,]

[Take your body down town]

Red, White, Blue's in the skies,

Summer's in the air and baby, 

Heaven's your eyes,

I'm your national Anthem 

Money is the anthem,

God, you're so handsome.

Money is the anthem, of success

Money is the anthem,

God, you're so handsome.

Another song From Lana Del Ray on my play list gotta to be this "Summertime Sadness" . This is the perfect song! ♥

 
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I got my red dress on tonight
Dancing in the dark in the pale moonlight
Done my hair up real big beauty queen style
High heels off, I'm feeling alive

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh

I'm feelin' electric tonight
Cruising down the coast goin' 'bout 99
Got my bad baby by my heavenly side
I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight

Oh, my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothing scares me anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh

I think I'll miss you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
Later's better than never
Even if you're gone I'm gonna drive (drive, drive)

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you're the best

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness
S-s-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh, oh

MEET MC UNEEK, A TALENTED RAPPER FROM INDIA.

[Harish] Mc Uneek

What comes into your mind when someone says 'hip hop' ? That bling bling, that women, that larger than life persona ! Well, here's a rapper who challenges the stereotypical image of hip hop and talks about matters that matter the most. MC Uneek, from India, brings out a suppressed style of hip hop to life and adds a new flavor to every track that he puts out !

BETTER DAYS

Here's my online interview with my friend, my fav rapper, the one and only: [Harish] MC Uneek.

Me: I always wonder what MC stands for and I know you for a long time. Can you help me solve the mystery? :)

MC Uneek: A master of ceremonies (MC or emcee), is the official host of a staged event or similar performance. An MC usually presents performers, speaks to the audience, and generally keeps the event moving.

Me: Oh, that MC. I thought it something else.:)
I always call you Uneek coz its just sounds right but which do you prefer being called, Harish or Uneek?

MC Uneek: Well, anything is fine. My friends call me Harish and people who dig my music call me Uneek. So, I really can't choose between the two.

Me: So Uneek, from all the music genres, why choose rap? Rap is identical with young gen and you’re young. I also know you’re from Hyderabad, India-I never been there, I wish I have but I’ve browsed a bit about it, it’s one of the largest city in Southern India and according to my source, its a growing metropolitan. Does this somehow influence your music preference?

MC Uneek: Well, from all my experiences with music in the past, I have realized that hip hop is just my thing. I don't consider it as a music genre, instead, I perceive it as a culture. It had this divine element that attracted me and as I grew up as an artist, I've realized that rapping can be instrumental in bringing out positive change among its listeners. Also, I figured out that the content you write in your songs depends on what you grasp and learn from hip hop. I agree that initially, for an amateur listener, rap teaches aggression and extravagant swag but to a more intelligent and hip hop culture-literate listener, the greater good comes out from hiding. And definitely, the place where you live in and the situations among which you grow up in, situations you deal with, influence your taste in music.

Me: In your opinion, how is Rap music in India, in general? How is it develops? I know Rap is from west culture but how people in India respond to this music genre? Is it popular music among the youth like in the West?

MC Uneek: A larger part of the Indian community has noticed hip hop's existence. It is still in a crucial developmental phase and I see positive results down the lane. Largely, hip hop and rap are perceived as ''cool'' by most of the urban youth in India. Also, unfortunately, most of the kids think they will come across as cool if they try and ape hip hop, leaving behind the fundamentals. It is quite popular here now, but for all the wrong reasons.

Me: Is your family musical? What do they think about your music?

MC Uneek: I do not come from a musical background. Though my family isn't music literate, they have been there to support me throughout and admired every bit of art I've produced. It's almost unbelievable how a strong emotional bonding can take a person to unparalleled heights. I am grateful to my family and all my supporters and I am what I am today solely because of them.

Me: Do you have any rapper that influence your music or you learn from? and which musician inspire you the most?

MC Uneek: Yes, I draw my influences from Immortal Technique, Nas, Reks, Pac and Kendrick Lamar. Plus, there a lot of other rappers who teach me constantly through their tracks. I've been largely influenced by the 90's hip hop.

Me: Tell me about your music, how would you describe it? when and how did you started?

MC Uneek: I would like to describe my music as an effort to bring out a positive change in its listeners. My lyrics are mostly based on things that people can relate to. Things, that I think, affect people the most. I started listening to rap when I was 14 years old and I fell in love with this track ''In da Club'' by 50 Cent just because I couldn't get enough of the beat. It has been a colorful journey so far.

  

FRIENDS

Me: I watched your vids right after you launched them, those are great. Did you do all that by yourself? I mean I know you wrote the lyrics but do you also arrange your music ? Do you play instruments?

MC Uneek: Yes, I do the lyric videos all by myself. I taught myself the operations of different software and platforms. Also, I am quite acquainted with the different studio and recording procedures. I play the guitar.

Me: The lyrics are AWSM, I honestly can’t sing them easily but then again am not a rapper hehehe! They’re Just brill and I agreed with those comments on your Fb, you got the rhyme Uneek! How did those words come into your head?

MC Uneek: Thank you Dita ! It's hard to explain that ! I think it's all about constantly improving your vocabulary and knowledge and leave it to the art in you to do the magic.

Me: How did you get inspiration for your songs from?

MC Uneek: I rely on different sources to provide me the inspiration to write and record. Mostly, these sources are the day to day happenings around me.

Me:  I see you have a message in every song you wrote but I think its better if I heard them straight from you, Uneek. Tell me what “All that you need”, “Friend” and your latest one "Better Days” are about.

MC Uneek: I wrote 'All That You Need' three years back. It was the first time ever I wrote to a beat. It was all unrestricted lyrical cadence lengths till that point. It basically introduces me to the rap game and also hints at what kind of music listeners can expect from me in the future.
'Friends', obviously, embraces the best people around you and your relationship with them. It also shouts out to the people to co-exist and prioritizes non-violence.
'Better Days' came out when I felt I needed to strike a chord of realization among the urban youth. It basically helps people who are ''carried away'' by certain things, so much so that they unknowingly lead that sort of lifestyle.

Me: I can always visit your You tube channel to enjoy you music online but do you do public perform also where people can enjoy your music live?

MC Uneek: Yeah I do perform regularly in pubs and at various events around the city. I've also started to DJ, recorded three successful gigs so far.

Me: What is your future plan in music industry? How do you see yourself in musical industry in 5 or 10 years?

MC Uneek:: That's an intriguing question. The hip hop industry in India is just shaping up. I intend to take hip hop into the people just like any other Indian movie song. I plan on performing regularly, make music, write songs and also establish a production house and help upcoming talented rappers and hip hop artists in the country.

Me:  Are you good in School? How do you see your career in music and education? Are you working on them together on the same time? or what’s on your priority now?

MC Uneek: I am a Computer Science graduate and yes, I've been a good student throughout. I currently work as a systems engineer for a company called Infosys. Work is what I need to do to earn money, music is what sets me free. There are no priorities as such, I'll take things as they come.

Me: If you could write a song in any other music genre, which genre would it be?

MC Uneek: Well, I used to be the vocalist of a rock band in my 12th. So definitely, other than hip hop, I'd like to make a rock song. It's a completely different experience, jamming with musical instruments. Also, I'm a big fan of progressive trance. So I may make a song or two in that genre.

Me: Last question, what do you want to say to people who listen to your music?

MC Uneek: I'd like to thank them for listening to my songs. Much Love ! Your support means a lot !

Thank you so much Uneek for the time and for the friendship.Wish for the best for your music career and for your personal life. Much love and everyone, here another one great one from MC Uneek, "All that you need."  Enjoy and stay tune for more special updates here at Mignonesia. Peace out!

Cakra Khan, Indo new singer with Golden voice.

Helloooooooo my readers and visitors! :D

How are y'all doin? :)
I am started my Monday morning here with hot lemon tea  aaaaaand with this beautiful voice of this from new Indo singer Cakra Khan.

Oh wait, don't get confuse with Chaka Khan, the legendary singer when you hear his name but I think this guy could be on his way to fame with his awesome voice and of course with his first single "Harus Terpisah"- released this very year 2012, and also maybe with this post hahahahaha! I wish!:P

Born in February 27, 1992  in Pangandaran- Ciamis, West Java  Cakra began his music career under Sony music label.

Currently at his sixth semester at Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Music Bandung or Bandung Music Science school majoring Vocal classic, Cakra Konta Payaman- his birth name, did added "Khan" to his stage name which he took from his Idol, the great and the only legendary Queen of funk, Chaka Khan.

He sure new to Indo music industry but he already have his own fanatic fans e.g @CakraKhanz and @CakraHolic which you can find them in twitterland.

I think he'll just need the right songs that could explore his vocal power to the max for his another single or better, an album in the future.

When I heard his song for the first time, I thought it was Sandy Sandoro who sang. I fan Sandoro voice too and I posted him before HERE

I wonder If  Cakra and Sandoro could do a duet together coz I bet that would be a deadly duet. DO IT guys, puhleaaase.:) 

"Harus terpisah" or  Must detached (myself from you) in English is quite a short song so I had to re playing it over and over just to keep enjoying his voice huhuhuhu.

I know the song is in Indonesian but I wont translate the lyric for you. I believe translating it to other language will just kill the song's emotion hehehehe :P  but I can tell you what the song is about and do correct me if anyone think I get it wrongly.

I think the song is about, someone who think a lot about his relation he is having with his specific other but started to question where their relation is heading and just wanted to give it up because of his partner's lack of effort and swing mood to make things works between them.

Well, If you've been or if you're actually in an on and off relation right now you might feel related to this song. You might often get this need feeling or thought of detaching yourself from your specific other when you think or feel your specific other is not longer present in your relation you both having in just so you can move on with your things in your life.

Anyway, I found the lyric on the web but can not find the official vid's link. O.o
Good thing I found this cool vid tho so Happy Singing maybe? :)

Enjoy your Monday everyone!:D I'll comeback later with more updates here at Mignonesia. #wink

Sendiri, sendiri ku diam, diam dan merenung

Merenungkan jalan yang kan membawaku pergi

Pergi tuk menjauh, menjauh darimu

Darimu yang mulai berhenti

Berhenti mencoba, mencoba bertahan

Bertahan untuk terus bersamaku

Ku berlari kau terdiam

Ku menangis kau tersenyum

Ku berduka kau bahagia

Ku pergi kau kembali

Ku coba meraih mimpi

Kau coba ‘tuk hentikan mimpi

Memang kita takkan menyatu

Bayangkan.. bayangkan ku hilang, hilang tak kembali

Kembali untuk mempertanyakan lagi cinta

Cintamu yang mungkin, mungkin tak berarti

Berarti untuk ku rindukan

Ku berlari kau terdiam

Ku menangis kau tersenyum

Ku berduka kau bahagia

Ku pergi kau kembali

Ku coba meraih mimpi

Kau coba ‘tuk hentikan mimpi

Memang kita takkan menyatu

Ini harusnya kita coba saling melupakan

Lupakan, lupakan kita pernah saling bersama

Ku berlari kau terdiam

Ku menangis kau tersenyum

Ku berduka kau bahagia

Ku pergi kau kembali

Ku coba meraih mimpi

Kau coba ‘tuk hentikan mimpi

Memang kita takkan menyatu

ALERT: Everyone, I need to update this post. As some of you might already know, Cakra Khan via his management have released his official video for his single. Got 5,263,545 views so far. Right on! Glad people starts to recognize his talent now. 
I still think he/his producer [?] doesn't need to add "Khan" on his stage name tho, just because he likes Chaka Khan.. He will be better with his real name Cakra- his voice is amazing already. Adding "Khan" on his stage name just kill/distract-what ever the proper term is, the audience from his own musical talent and confuse them with other singer. Just sayin'. :)

HUNGRY GOSTS.

I Don't Think About You Anymore But, I Don't Think About You Any less...
 

MELONCHOLIA PROLOGUE

PAN PAN - Animated Dust

PHILLIP GLASS -Double Concerto.

I love love this one. Simply beautiful. Please enjoy.

Phillip Glass  - Double Concerto for Violin, Cello and Orchestra - Part 3.

EMILLIANA TORRINI - TO BEE FREE

and this one,



 Once in a house on a hill
A boy got angry
He broke into my heart

For a day and a night
I stayed beside him
Until I had no hope

So I came down the hill
Of course I was hurt
But then I started to think

It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself

There's a bar by the dock
Where I found myself
Drinking with this man
He offered me a cigarette
And I accepted
'Cause it's been a very long time
As it burned 'till the end
I thought of the boy
No one could ever forget

It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself

To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself

To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself.

SIA - I GO TO SLEEP

It been a long time I did not share music here. Well, here's the last one I like today.

Enjoy!

I like the lyric too.

When I look up from my pillow
I dream you are there with me
Though you are far away
I know you'll always be near to me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

I look around me
And feel you are ever so close to me
Each tear that flows from my eye
Brings back memories of you to me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

I was wrong, I will cry
I will love you till the day I die
You were all, you alone and no one else
You were meant for me

When morning comes again
I have the loneliness you left me
Each day drags by
Until finally my time descends on me

I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me
I go to sleep
And imagine that you're there with me

BEE GEES Inside and Out - FEIST version and lyric. Like! Like! Like!^^

 Mmmmmhhh....mmmmmhhh...mmmmmhhh

Baby, I cant figure it out

Your kisses taste like honey

Sweet lies don't gimme no rise up 

Fool, what you're trying to do

Livin' on your cheatin' and the pain grows inside me 

it's enough to leave me crying in the rain 

Love you forever but you're  driving me insane 

And am hanging on  

Oh, oh , oh ,oh 

I'll wait, I'll never give in 

Our love has got the power 

Too many lovers in one lifetime, ain't good for you

You treat me like a vision in the night 

Someone there to stand behind you 

when your world ain't working right

I ain't no vision
Am the girl who loves you inside and out 

Backwards and forwards with my heart hanging out

I love no other way 

What we are gonna do if we lose the fire?

Wrap myself up and take me home again 

Too many heartaches in one lifetime ain't good for me 

You figure it's the love that keeps you worm  

Let this moment be forever 

We wont ever feel the storm

I ain't no vision ,
Am the girl  who loves you inside and out

Backwards and forwards with my heart hanging out

I love no other way 

What we are gonna do if we lose the fire?

Don't try to tell me that its over

Cant hear the word  I cant hear a lie  

No girl could love you more 

And that's what I'm cryin' for

You can't change the way I feel inside 

You are the reason for my laughter and my sorrow 

Blow out the candle I will burn again tomorrow 

No man on earth can stand between my loving arms 

And no matter how you  hurt me, I will love you till I die

I ain't a vision, I'm the girl Who loves you inside and out

Backwards and forwards with my heart hanging out

I love no other way 

What we are gonna do if we lose the fire?

Love you inside and out

Backwards and forwards with my heart hanging out

I love no other way 

What we are gonna do if we lose the fire?

inside and out ....inside and out.....inside and out

INDO MUSIC : THE BEST INDO SINGER, AFGAN- Luck and Talent

Afgan is one of Indonesian talented singger which happen to be my fav. I heart his voice!!! I loooove his music from his first album Confession No.1 released in 2008.

His songs is highly influenced by the genre of pop, soul, R&B, and jazz makes me don’t want to stop listen. 

Born in 1989, Afgan Syah Reza was accidentally found while covering John Legend in a karaoke- John Legend by the way is also one of my fav. I am melted when listen to his songs lol BUT Afgan has stole many hearts with his deep, soulful voice.


This  young  pop sensation has lots of fans here in Indonesia AND other countries in Asia.

Afgan has won many awards in such young age and among them were the prestigious 2008 MTV Indonesia Awards (Artist of the Year and Favorite Male Artist), 2008 Nickelodeon Indonesian Kids’ Choice Awards (Favorite Male Singer) and 2009 Indonesian Music Awards (Best Male Solo Singer).

I have three big hits from Afgan on my play list;

The first song I like is “Sadis” (Cruel) because love can be cruel you know hehehe anyway this song taken from his album Confession No.1. The second songs would be   "You give me something", a James Morrison's song cover by Afgan - Not bad. I always like this James Morrison song anyway and last but not least is Afgan's latest song:  Dia Dia Dia ( It's her, It's her ,It's her)- I like the music and I like the part when Afgan said Dia Dia Dia, it feels like he is talking to me wkwkwkwkwk.

So now you know what songs I listen a lot and happy to share with you all here.

Please enjoy and hope everyone heading a nice week end!!!!^^

Saturday and Sunday are the best days of the week, lets hate bloody Monday!:P

Sandhy Sondoro- The newborn world singer

When the first time I hear his voice, I was melted! I was like, OMG! who is this guy??!!!
BUT I am not the only one who surprise with his soulful voice.
Should you hear his voice without knowing anything about him, you might even guess that he is an African-American singer because the way he sings is so "black".
That he is Indonesian surprises many who hear his voice first.
This nice person with a great sense of humor-so they said, is a 36-year-old Sandy Sondoro.
He made remarkable achievements in music by winning the New Wave 2009- an international music competition for young singers, in Jurmala, Latvia, putting Indonesia on the international stage.
Sandhy who adored The Beatles, Michael Jackson and Neil Young began his career unexpectedly and unplanned.
He went to Germany to study architecture after he graduated from high school in Jakarta.
He was a singer in a uni band but rarely appeared on stage so in order to support himself, he borrowed his friend's guitar and join a busker singing on the streets. Later on, he write more songs and play some shows with his band in Berlin for many years until he took part in a talent show that was aired on Germany TV and his participation there opened up the way for further opportunities in a number of shows such as House of World Cultures in Berlin.
His first single "Shine" was soon in the radio charts in major European cities such as Berlin, Madrid and Paris.  and in 2008 he release his first debut album, " Why don't we".

"I'm not really the kind of person who is crazy about participating in American Idol-like contests, but I took the opportunity as a way of getting free promotion. Besides, I love Indonesia and I wanted to promote the country at the international level." he says.


J'adore his voice and like all peoples in Indo, we are so proud of you, Sandhy.
Please enjoy three of his songs I picked from his albums everybody!^^

Nyawa dan Cinta (The Soul and Love) and Cinta saja (Just Love)by DEBU

Formed in 2001, DEBU is an  American band of Sufi based in South Jakarta, Indonesia.

Play instrument ranging from Oud a type of middle Eastern lute to table drums, flamenco guitar and electric bass. Most of band member are from America with other member from England , Sweden and Indonesia.

Their music lyrics are about peace, the love and longing to the creator and other Islamic messages( love and peace, its the essence of Islam, the Sufi way -which why I like this band and listen to their songs.:)

Some of their songs are in Arabic, English, Turkish,Persia, Spanish and Chinese language but their songs are mainly in Indonesia.

Enjoy these songs I picked  from DEBU , Nyawa dan Cinta & Cinta saja ( just Love)

Degung Sunda

Degung is unique type of gamelan. Degung developed in 19th century in small courts of  Bupati [Regents] who were Indonesian Rulers under the Dutch and it has become increasingly widespread among the general populace since Independence in 1945.

                                
Nowadays it is often played at wedding receptions, or as background music.
The middle class consider it more 'up-market' because of its former aristocratic connections. At the same times, It has also become the vehicle for a certain type of Sundanese popular music.
Please Enjoy.:)

Sundanese Pop song

I listen to this song in a radio view months ago and I liked it. 

 

Honestly I rarely listen to Sundanese songs or musics eventho I am a Sundanese. Haha. Shame on me ya but I enjoyed this song and I thought why not sharing it also with you all here. 

 

The lyric of this song is soooooo sad. Its about the kid's sadness being separated from his daddy and that he have to become street musician to support his life on the street while he trying very hard to find his daddy and without his knowing at the same time his daddy also looking for him somewhere and feeling the same sadness. 

 

The singer's voice, Kustian is nice to listen too I think and I heard he is becomes well known now thanks to this song. Hmm, not bad for kid at his age ya. 

 

Please enjoy the song everyone.
