Seni Reak Juarta Putra (id)

It is intense and hungry, celebratory and fabulous when you get the opportunity to take part in the phenomenon of Seni Reak Juarta Putra. The Indonesian group performs an explosive, all-theatrical session with roots in Sundanese culture from the western part of the island of Java in Indonesia.

The ritual has existed for more than 100 years, originally rooted in local, family ceremonies, but has now developed into a musical phenomenon with several hundred performing groups. The word reak is said to be a combination of the words eak-eakan and ngareuah-reuah, and means music that gets the attention of the people around – and there is a guarantee that Seni Reak Juarta Putra will demand your attention.

The boundary between the dimensions melts when the trance is invoked through a wild and bodily dance with intense rhythmic accompaniment and wild physical manifestations that anchor the participants in a larger world space. Smoke, dance, and thundering drums ensure an intense total experience – in this case in a unique collaboration with Danish musicians.

About the group's first performance on Danish soil, at Roskilde Festival 2022, Undertoner wrote: "It didn't take long before horns, drums, and bells were joined by the evening's first dance performance, where one of the actors threw his black-clad body around on the hard wooden floor, so it throbbed arrhythmically underfoot. But we had to go on to the improvisational wilderness that lay wild and exposed before us. Then another grabbed a black wooden horse, while a third jumped into what in its unerected form looked most like a beige canvas sack. But once he got to his feet and the eyes of his ritual snake costume came into view, the two artists fought a deadly, metaphysical battle, which our mounted protagonist – of course – won, while the aroma of incense grew thicker and thicker in the room."

HVAD (DK)

HVAD (Hari Shankar Kishore, b. 1985) is a Danish electronic artist. Since the mid-2000s, he has been creating and performing electronic music under various aliases, developing a signature sound unlike anything else in Denmark. His music is innovative, wild, and ever-evolving, characterized by an abstract, warlike energy that seems to make the earth tremble. Underneath it all lies a hauntingly beautiful sense of paranoia. Drawing from modern situationism, HVAD crafts a unique and complex musical and visual universe that breaks down cultural boundaries and challenges prejudices.

HVAD incorporates elements such as self-carved lacquers, temple bells, taxi doors, dog barks, church choirs, street slang, and his own voice to express a contemporary cultural awareness that transcends multiculturalism, blurring the line between lived experience and art. HVAD has performed over 500 concerts worldwide, from SXSW in Texas to the Midi Electronic Music Festival in Suzhou, China.

After nearly seven years of hard work, Hari's sound has gained recognition from opinion leaders and visionaries worldwide: Aphex Twin played his tracks during their DJ set at Glastonbury, and Hari has performed at venues ranging from the legendary Berghain in Berlin to the Unsound festival in Krakow.

Danish news outlet Information writes

“The human body is exposed in HVAD's work through traditional Indian instruments that rarely come to the forefront. Most of the time, the violin, sitar, swarmandal, esraj, and tanpura reside in the background, like droning and plaintive ghosts.

However, percussion instruments such as the tabla, dholak, and gong blend more clearly with the layered beats and timbres. These beats draw from older electronic equipment by manufacturers like Roland, Korg, Suiko, and Eventide — specifically the H3000 variant.

The sound of HVAD’s finger work on the buttons of electronic equipment and the drum skin of percussion instruments is intertwined, building a bridge between today’s acoustics and the timelessness of computer storage, between Indian tradition and Western electronica.”

Seni Reak Juarta Putra (id)

Det er intenst og sultent, fejrende og fabelagtigt når du får muligheden for at tage del i fænomenet Seni Reak Juarta Putra. Den indonesiske gruppe udfører en eksplosiv, totalteatralsk seance med rødder i den sundanesiske kultur fra den vestlige del af øen Java i Indonesien.

Ritualet har eksisteret i mere end 100 år, og det er oprindeligt forankret i lokale, familiære ceremonier, men har nu udviklet sig til et musikalsk fænomen med flere hundrede udøvende gripper.

Ordet reak er efter sigende en kombination af ordene eak-eakan og ngareuah-reuah, og betyder musik, der får de omkringværende folks opmærksomhed – og der er garanti for at Seni Reak Juarta Putra vil kræve din opmærksomhed.

Grænsen mellem dimensionerne smelter når trancen påkaldes gennem en vild og kropslig dans med intenst rytmisk akkompagnement og vilde fysiske udfoldelser, der forankrer de deltagende i et større verdensrum. Røg, dans og dundrende trommer sikrer en intens totaloplevelse – i dette tilfælde i et unikt samarbejde med danske musikere.

Om gruppens første optræden på dansk jord, på Roskilde Festival 2022, skrev Undertoner: "Det varede nemlig ikke længe, før horn, trommer og klokker fik selskab af aftenens første danseindslag, hvor én af aktørerne kastede sit sortklædte legeme rundt på det hårde trægulv, så det dunkede arytmisk under fødderne. Men vi skulle videre ud på det improvisatoriske overdrev, der lå vildt og blotlagt foran os. Så en anden greb en sort træhest, mens en tredje hoppede ind i noget, der i sin ueregerede form mest af alt lignede en beige lærredssæk. Men da han først fik stablet sig på benene, og øjnene på hans rituelle slangekostume kom til syne, udkæmpede de to artister en drabelig, metafysisk kamp, som vores beredne protagonist – selvfølgelig – vandt, mens aromaen af røgelse blev tykkere og tykkere i lokalet."

HVAD (DK)

HVAD (Hari Shankar Kishore, f. 1985). Dansk elektronisk kunstner. Siden midten af 00'erne har han under forskellige aliasser skabt og fremført elektronisk musik og udviklet en signaturlyd, der ikke ligner noget andet i Danmark. Hans musik er nyskabende, vild og pågående – en abstrakt og krigerisk energi, der får jorden til at skælve. Og under det hele: en uhyggelig, smuk paranoia. Med afsæt i moderne situationisme skaber HVAD et originalt og komplekst musikalsk og visuelt univers, som nedbryder kulturelle grænser og udfordrer fordomme.

HVAD bruger bl.a. egne skårede lakplader, tempelklokker, taxidøre, hundeglammen, kirkekor, slang fra gaden samt sin egen stemme til at udtrykke en nutidig kulturel bevidsthed, som er “beyond” multikulturel, og som udvisker grænsen mellem det levede liv og kunsten. HVAD har spillet over 500 koncerter i det meste af verden fra SXSW i Texas til Midi Electronic Music Festival i Suzhou, Kina.

Efter næsten syv års hårdt arbejde er Haris lyd nået ud til meningsdannere og visionære verden over: The Aphex Twin spillede hans tracks under sit Glastonbury DJ set, og Hari har spillet på venues fra det legendariske Berghain i Berlin til Unsound-festivalen i Krakow.

Information skriver:

“Den menneskelige krop blotter sig i Hvads arbejde med traditionelle indiske instrumenter, der kun sjældent træder frem i lyset. Det meste af tiden huserer violin, sitar, swarmandal, esraj og tanpura i baggrundene som dronende og klagende gespenster.

Men slagtøj som tabla, dholak og gong blander sig noget tydeligere med de indtastede beats og klange. Som er lyden af ældre elektronisk udstyr fra fabrikanterne Roland, Korg, Suiko og minsandten også førnævnte Eventide – dog af H3000-varianten.

Lyden af Hvads fingerarbejde på det elektroniske udstyrs knapper og på slagtøjets trommeskind mixes. Der bygges bro mellem nuets akustik og computerlagringens evighed, mellem indisk tradition og vestlig electronica.”
