Sekar DMN is a thoughtful exploration of gamelan orchestras through the terms of post-rock, metal, and noise, and part of what makes the premise interesting is that it was entirely composed and recorded in Indonesia. After all, for all the

Ever from the Dostoevskian name of this intriguing compilation, there’s a drive to articulate all these avant-garde expressions from beneath the Iron Curtain in the 1970s and 1980s as a form of resistance to the totalitarian utopianism born from the
