I will admit that I don't get around much but I haven't heard anything quite like this. It is very beautiful and engaging music. Thank you for giving the opportunity to hear it.
Hi Milo - I really would like to hear this music. But I can't access the link. Not with a proxy-site nor with a vpn. And without the two "helps" I cannot access the link / website at all. So maybe you could - if time permits - to another hoster.
Excuse me for sticking my nose in but I would be happy to upload the files to mediafire and share a link, if that would help and if I am not stepping on any toes.
Hi from Italy and thanx for all, and expecially for this.....i'm very interested in fusion between gamelan & jazz, if someone have some other suggestions, please write them in these comments :-) Have a nice Xmas, also !
Influenced by Balinese music is f.e. Anthony Davis 'Episteme' - no Indonesian instruments are used but definitely with obvious influences from Gamelan (and Kecak) music.
A pleasant listen, though more veering towards new age than jazz, I thought (hence the title). I do have some gamelan myself, mostly on cassette and cd, picked up on several trips to Jakarta. It varies in style, depending on which parts of Java (and Bali) it's coming from (Yogyakarta, Bandung or Surabaya).
For a real fusion between Gamelan music and jazz, I know only two records by André Jaume https://www.discogs.com/fr/André-Jaume-With-Sapto-Raharjo-Gamelan-Orchestra-Guest-Rémi-Charmasson-Merapi/release/2969112 https://www.discogs.com/fr/André-Jaume-Sapto-Raharjo-Borobudur-Suite/release/2969077 There is also this record with Suzanna Santos Silva who join the band of Jonas Kulammar, the basement session vol 4 https://www.discogs.com/fr/Aalberg-Kullhammar-Zetterberg-Santos-Silva-Basement-Sessions-Vol4-The-Bali-Tapes/release/11555490 but in my memory the gamelan is very quiet and the Balinese influences is very light. Of course there is also the record by Tony Scott and the Indonesian allstars, here there is no gamelan but some compositions are totally influenced by Indonesian music in its largest meaning. https://www.discogs.com/fr/Tony-Scott-2-And-The-Indonesian-All-Stars-Djanger-Bali/release/821245
very beautiful, and quiet in respect of other gamelan music I listened to. very different. I understand that gamelan music doesnt follow a determined pattern, but is centered more on the set of instrumets, and maybe there are different kinds of gamelan music. anyway, thank you
Thank you very much for this, miloo2. I have been returning to this for several nights now and it never fails to draw me in, especially the second half. Lovely music.
This is amazing. What a find! The only thing I can compare it to is some of the things that Michael Ranta has done, e.g. for Jean-Claude Eloy, but with a different Asian point of departure.
