Derek Walmlsey, editor of The Wire magazine, returns again to TUSK for more illuminating talks with artists appearing at the festival. On Saturday at this year’s TUSK, Derek talks to Phil Todd and Melanie O’Dubhshlaine of Ashtray Navigations and on Sunday, he talks to Rully Herman and Wukir Suryadi of Senyawa.
Senyawa are the duo from Indonesia that effortlessly blend traditional musical forms of their homeland with their love of the avant garde and heavy metal to produce something truly unique and jaw-dropping. Armed with little more than Rully Herman’s voice and Wukir Suryadi’s hand-made stringed instrument the bambuwukir, Senyawa’s sum hugely outweighs its parts, summoning huge intensity and atmospherics from the most subtle approach. Listening to Senyawa is an education in the impact of space in music, Rully’s throat-singing and other techniques and Wukir’s painfully sparse intensity electrifying festivals across Europe and beyond.
Senyawa have enchanted Europe’s leftfield and electronic music audiences in recent years and now release via Rabih ‘Morphosis’ Beaini’s Morphine label. Rully and Wukir also have a live collaboration with Beaini developing and have issued split releases with Buchla Music Easel master Charles Cohen, Vialka and Melt Banana. We’re delighted to have Senyawa at TUSK for only their 2nd UK live show to date.
