about

Performed by Desa Mambal in Art Center Denpasar, July 2023 with a Semar Pegulingan Gamelan Ensemble.

Janger Dance is a traditional Balinese dance from Bali, Indonesia, characterized by lively group performances featuring both male and female dancers

The romanticism of Janger Dance lies in its portrayal of love and courtship. Often performed in pairs, the dance expresses the emotions and nuances of romantic relationships. Male and female dancers engage in graceful movements and gestures that symbolize the delicate and intricate dynamics of love.

This is a documentary process of recording Balinese Traditional Gamelan music, started in the year 2020.

Traditions have changed over time, but ancient musical compositions are adapted to nowadays life.

Agustín Oscar Rissotti, an Argentinian student of the University ISI Denpasar (Bali), developed an idea to join as many rehearsals, ensembles and religious ceremonies as possible with small microphones and recording equipment, to document the authentique "Bali Gamelan Sound".

In Bali, most live performances are meant to be performed for the Gods. There is no egoistic purpose in this performances, but to admire the beauty of this world through the eyes of Hindu Balinese religion.

As for his ears, this is "The authentique Bali Sound", full of conversations around, people passing by, laughs, music of different performances played together (as it is meant to be in several Balinese Hindu ceremonies where -more than 1- ensembles are playing music very close to each other -at the same time-), background noises, sounds of coffee cups and arak shoots (traditional homemade alcohol beverage), breath of cigarettes, animals hollowing around, hundreds of motorbikes passing by, and even mother nature earthquakes.

With all my respect, this is the vision of a South Latin American guy who ended up studying Balinese Culture and living in the Island before, during and after the pandemic.

I hope this can translate you to the world I am living in.

Thankyou, I hope you will enjoy this music.
Astungkara, Matur suksema.

A special mention and gratitude for I Wayan Sweca, for inviting me to this ceremony.

All the economic contributions made to this project are spent in developing the Balinese Culture and Artists.

Please donate buying the records in Bandcamp.

A refreshing detour and next level delve from this artist, into beat sculpting and sound design that both massages the ears and holds attention; a deep space to get lost in! Loved it. so_nam
