KUNTARI – Last Boy Picked

Preview Track: Azura

“A 3-day residency is a brilliant way to start something new and try out previously unthinkable ideas, meeting people across various genres; in which I forced them to play outside of what they categorise as “ordinary”. Acoustic drums, looped with constant sound without any sustain, wide-ranged percussions, and baritone guitar, but played from a percussive perspective (touched, without pressing). I have never made music with tone nearing to nil like this, and the process towards orchestrated rhythmic provides the perfect foundation to accompany the screeches and screams of Prepared Cornet/Trumpet.

Organic sounds have their own playground that is difficult to compare, even natural mistakes sound beautiful due to their humane nature. The piano tracks serve as resting moments in between the madness, yet their true meanings still tire the heart. Do enjoy my traumatic period from time to time, wrapped in colours.”

This release is an exclusive to The Store Front.

Staff Comments: 

“Immerse yourself in the eerie listening experience that is ‘Last Boy Picked’. Anointed as the best album of 2021 by Jakarta Post and we think that it is quite warranted.”
