Description:

Peni Candra Rini, the Indonesian composer and performer whose musical practice encompasses a wide range of traditional and experimental Javanese styles, announces her new album Wulansih via New Amsterdam Records. -

"Wulansih is a small encyclopedia of Indonesian music. Rini explains: ?The album mixes a wide range of materials, including traditional Javanese gamelan singing, Balinese chant, stringband music of the 1960s, and intercultural improvisations, bringing them all together through my contemporary compositional approach. We created experimental ensembles, and even experimental instruments and tunings to create an album that, whatever you think of it, sounds like nothing else.? Rini?s lyrics are poems, strongly inspired by Javanese Sufism, with a deep emphasis on love and the inner self. Estu explores the idea of ?love as a sacrifice; it takes a commitment to put one?s heart in the right place. It requires the seriousness of an artist,? while Warahsih explores how ?always through understanding and sincerity, teaching Love to those who study the ways of life, through the ages.? The music on Wulansih transforms these poems of love and compassion into open and lush sonic spaces that are crafted using synthesizers, traditional Indonesian instruments, Rini?s wide vocal range, guitars, and Ismaily?s production."
