about

Peni Candra Rini (she/her), the Indonesian composer and performer whose musical practice encompasses a wide range of traditional and experimental Javanese styles mixed with western instrumentation, releases her second album of 2024.

Wani is full of playful noise, rambunctious energy, and a deep sense of the unexpected. The album was created by giving the recorded musicians “very basic outlines” of the songs, improvising around those frameworks in the studio, and giving producers John Dieterich (Deerhoof, Mary Halvorson, Sufjan Stevens, Booker Stardrum) and Chris Botta (Yaeji, Emily Wells, the JACK Quartet, Valee, Shahzad Ismaily) “free reign to produce the tracks as they liked.” The result is a loud, fun, chaotic, energizing, and mesmerizing collection of songs that explore themes from traditional Javanese art, scripture, politics, shadow play, and song.

Wonderful album by Nathalie Joachin. It is obviously a follow up to Fanm D'Ayiti but different enough to keep things fresh and interesting. I love the way subtle integration of electronics in a couple of songs. Joost de Wall
