Festival Alur Bunyi features a full day of performances by a number of Indonesian musicians. Coming into its third year, it was certainly a challenge to continually offer a new experience to the audience.
The Festival’s core spirit remains intact: to be a space for local musicians and artists to converse with each other whilst providing a space as a catalyst for collaboration. Embracing the rich diversity of the local music scene, the festival puts various music genres onto one day event. From fusing electronic music with jazz, classical and ballads, to disco, the festival creates an eclectic soundscape that resonates with a diverse range of music lovers and visitors.
 
The first time I heard of Alur Bunyi Festival, I immediately sensed that it was going to become the theme park for musicians and artists who sought to showcase their arts beyond their usual tendencies. Through its organizer, the Festival was able to provide the space that inspired new ideas and cross-genre collaborations. This gave performers the license to experiment and push boundaries and being their authentic selves on the Festival’s stage. It was that quality which made Alur Bunyi Festival one-of-a-kind.

Musicians

Monita Tahalea and Bayu Risa

When the infectious grooves of Bayu Risa's disco and electro-pop meet the sentimental melodies of Monita Tahalea's pop-folktronic, a unique musical journey begins. They formed “Sentimental Pulse” an atmosphere that is both electrifying and deeply emotional, seamlessly integrating modular synths and organic sounds to craft an alternative soundscape that resonates with the soul. With Agung Munthe, Lie Indra Perkasa, and Ramandha Satya, the result is an immersive experience that invites listeners to dance with abandon while feeling the heartfelt stories behind each note.
