About IndieIn recent years the phenomenon of so swift jerky indie. Burst from the musical "edges".Creating a new trend in the global music industry. A question that will imprint on our minds.Actually, what the meaning of indie, underground, DIY, terms that are familiar with the term world music "underground" is.Nowadays people often mistakenly in assessing a musical. Many mention the music of "underground" as a music that loud, brutal, which is only dominated by bands homage to death metal, grind core, hard core or black metal. And it kept repeating that ultimately gives a false notion.Now we peeled a little about the "mistake kaprahan" this. Indie is actually derived from the word in English, the Independent, which means independent, free, independent. The term was later by the Indie musician becomes twisted. Indie term refers to the production system is performed by a musician. A band or musician who makes his own music, record, then, market or distribute the musical work, this is referred to as the Indie musician.Everything is performed by musicians from the start the creative process. Make up to redistribute the product to "own" and the outside lane "mainstream" eventually referred to as DIY (Do it Yourself). Due to distribute or market these products through "guerrilla" or street "underground" (mainly because of lack of budget), then comes the term Underground.
Keep in mind that in the production process of DIY there is no interference from others.That affect the creative process of the musician. Because all done by him.Then came the term indie labels and major labels. Indie labels are a recording company that may not be for a major label, especially from the purse. But it has its own concept, from the kind of music, recording up to the marketing of products. From indie record label is usually the musicians more freedom in the work. While the major labels is a big record company, which has a network marketing or distribution of products is widespread in many countries. Since being pursued is the target market and the trends that are being or already exist and evolve. So often the producer usually suppress or affect, the creative process of artists or musicians in their ideas or his work.
A musician could be called musical underground, where all their products are made by indie (by themselves). Starting from the basic music, arrangement, design album covers for the process of marketing or distribution. As for the type of music "underground" was actually covers all types of music and unlimited. From pop, hard rock, heavy metal, punk, ska, death metal, black metal, hard core, techno, alternative rock and even jazz.
When viewed historically, DIY, indie and underground is a form of resistance and rejection of mainstream music, major labels, and music industry memperiakukan music not as art.But as a commodity. Even in many cases a lot of musicians who serve as cash cows for record producer. A form of resistance from the music artists who want to catapult his expression, who wants his work appreciated and enjoyed by everyone, without loss of idealism and creativity they have. As said by Catherine Nicholas in his article published in Left Of The Dial,"Today's, pop stars are simply the puppets of the powerful, money-hungry businessman of the music industry".DIY production system is mainly performed by musicians who do not have a place in the world's major recording industry. Outside the country, scattered hundreds or even thousands of musicians. Both bands or solo musicians that are consistent with this indie track. If you are familiar with the technology, once in a while try to surf on the internet and you will get so much information about band names, underground musicians, recording their albums, which you never knew or even listen.
With the other ingredients of music, from those already on the market. DIY or this musician through and creates its own market. The music roared, the vowel sounds "c" typical death metal musicians, links the rough, full of curses and dirty words, blasphemies against social conditions, environmental conditions and the state, even the ideology and propaganda, play an instrument that "meticulous ", sound-sound that is" noisy ", until the dressing is considered weird and things that are not in accordance with the" market "or the trend in the world of" pop "into a legitimate and legal in the underground community.
In Indonesia alone, indie phenomenon begins with the release of the album's eyes god's work and Setiawan Djody Iwan Fals. Then followed Pas band, from Bandung, with a mini-EP contains 4 songs titled Four Through The Sap, before it was re-released by Aquarius.After that successive groups of being "indie history" in Indonesia like bodies (C'est La Vie), Sacrilegious (Lucifer's Name Be Prayed), Puppen (Not A Pup EP), Closeminded (Closeminded), and Pure Saturday from Bandung and skulls (11s a Proud To Vomit Him) from Jakarta.
This proved a good response by several radio stations. What to organize special events for "children underground". From Mustang radio in Jakarta, GMR in Bandung, Geronimo in Jogjakarta, until the Eagles radio in Surabaya. After that major label seems to be interested in this indie phenomenon. Since it is considered as a potential market. Start up the album Metallic Clinic of Musica, and Indie Ten of Sony Music, which jump-start the name of Rice, Wong and Brown.
It turned indie phenomenon is not just solely dominated by the music alone. In the world of Indonesian literature appears Goddess "Dee" Lestari who self-published novel Supernova, which received good response from the community.As said by Niklas Steffensen,"If you're a more-or-less underground and independent artist, you dont have to worry too much about what people think; Not to say That you do not appreciate criticism, but you dont have to worry about pleasing the majority of (mostly either casual or fanatic) music listeners. And you dont need to worry about manipulating producers, record labels, managers etc. Trying to make you do a lot of stuff you really arent interested in doing. You can focus on the music & lyrics, roughly speaking you can focus on what you really want to do, what you find important. And since underground music does not have the narrow limits of mainstream music, there's also more room for experimentation. This is why independent & underground music (as well as most other artfbrms) is better than mainstream music; it's not that I have something against people making money or being Successful; it's that you dont have to compromise. ITS NOT ABOUT BAD sounding; ITS ABOUT BEING Talented! "Freedom of expression is the basic idea which later developed into a work that you dahsyat.Beranikah seeked this underground. A question and a challenge for you.
