Presented by CTM x arkaoda x Morphine x Latent Sonorities, this night headlines Raja Kirik, a duo of Yennu Ariendra and Mo’ong Santoso Pribadi that explores the dark, nonlinear history of the island of Java through Indonesian trance dances. Stringing syncopated electronic rhythms and the microtonal clangs of homemade instruments together with the pneumatic pressure of high-BPM, warehouse-ready kick drums, the music of Raja Kirik inhabits a wide emotional breadth, cycling from disappointment to anger to loneliness. Like the trance dances that inspired them, Raja Kirik's tracks evolve and cycle from misery to ecstasy, spinning distinctive narratives with rhythm, texture and repetition, and showing how music, dance, and ritual still provide narrative means today to assert oneself against foreign rule and violence.
Y-DRA, the solo project of Raja Kirik's Yennu Ariendra, examines the potential for resistance in dangdut koplo (or »stupid« in Indonesian), a popular Indonesian music genre that channels the sentiments and experiences of the country's working class. Hybrids of new, vivid, visceral sounds, his album (Yes Now Wave) and live show titled »No-Brain Dance« channel koplo's rhythmic elements alongside techno and IDM to shapeshift between identities and realities, and create individual and collective spaces for resistance. Available for live shows in Autumn 2023.
Two brilliant musicians will bring their distinctive selections to support the evening. Head of the wide-ranging label Morphine Records and experimental music hub Morphine Raum, Rabih Beaini’s genuine musical ability and a range of influences—from krautrock to new wave—seep into his inventive, emotional, and immersive DJ sets. Brazilian artist and Mamba Negra resident Kakubo inventively splices together styles and genres to deliver a heady dance stew of a trip, driven by big percussive drums, jagged techno kicks and hypnotic sub-bass frequencies juxtaposed to noisy textures that hit your ears and body. They manage to draw out extravagant sound palettes with precise sonic combinations of samples that connect cultures and times, from instrumental rhythms of the Global South to UK Bass, Asian traditional music, or avant-garde electronics.
Before the night begins, be sure to catch Raja Kirik's Mo'ong Santoso Pribadi at Latent Sonorities, a three-day concert series at Morphine Raum. The concert will feature new works created using a sample pack and tuning files from the Javanese gamelan of Ruma Budaya Indonesia Berlin. Other artists performing within the series include Bilawa Respati, Tusa Montes, and Wanton Witch.
