With the success of the first impromptu jamsession June 2nd 2024, our band acquired a taste for more. Danne Lunenburg (electronic music) will be guesting again. Composer Luiz Henrique Yudo (allsorts) will be present too. They will be accompanied by members of Gong Tirta on a plethora of instruments from East and West.
Updates on guest musicians and repertory are expected on the site of the Gamelanhuis in December. https://www.gamelanhuis.nl/#primary
Interested in joining the jam as a performer? We’re still on the look-out for a modern dancer (m/v), a spoken word artist and even a (live) painter. Contact me: renadisantoso0@gmail.com
ALDM Indorock event 10th of November 2024
Sunday 10th of November in the Bovenkruier at Zaandam. Association Almost Lost Dutch Music launched for the second time this year a live Indorock event.
Three workshop groups (active in Utrecht, Zaandam and Amsterdam) presented their acquired prowess to an enthousiastic audience. Indorock infused renditions of well known keroncong songs like Bengawan Solo and Terang Bulan were enjoyed by everyone present. Hujan Soré, Sepanjang Jalan Kenangan and Ayun-Ayun were rocked-up. Even a few songs from the likes of the Beatles had their Eurasian moment. And of course true Indorock classics like Al Capone and State Fair were played with abandon.
The event was topped off with a dynamic set by the Streetrollers. Special guest was fenomenal young guitarist Jay Jay. Also Ron Backx, who was one of the main organizers of the event made a very cool impression with his golden Les Paul and warm, punchy tone. In a powerful, radiant, bluesy solo he made the crowd cheer.
Renadi played bass with the workshop band Mokum Makan from Amsterdam. This nine-piece band was led by workshop teacher and lead guitarist Bart Baudoin (last picture underneath).
Almost Lost Dutch Music’s aim is to bring back to life Indorock music and Keroncong music by organising workshops and live performances. https://almostlostdutchmusic.wordpress.com/
