Krakatau Erupts in Australia
World music within the progression of modern sounds… blending an amazing mix of east and west. (The Straits Times).
The distinctive tones and sounds of Krakatau originate from the ancient gamelan tonal system called slendro. The slendro tonal system gives Krakatau great freedom of expression so that the Indonesian tradition itself unfolds within the sound of modern musical elements as different rhythmic souls fuse. Through devotion and hardship, Krakatau successively contributes new sound genres to World Music.
