Jire-Jire means prayers.
This song was made when I lived in Bandung. Sung by Revi Dee while awaiting the birth of Ara Malika (https://soundcloud.com/aramalika), our first child at 7 months of pregnancy.
The song is still in the form of sketches and recorded live using a mini disc shortly after created

pour of some indonesian ethnic stuff from east java to western coast sumatra in funky and jazzy music.

I put Seblang from Banyuwangi, East Java (http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seblang) for intro and most of voice is from traditional war dance Nias (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nias)

bas.Q - Seblang Hoho

after staying in ubud bali for 2 years, in 1999 I returned to my hometown, Bandung, after many years gone anywhere..

as I recall, it was in July ..dry season and the evenings are usually cooler.
i grab my guitar, tried new non standard tuning...hmm sound cool and i felt that i want to record it.

while listening what i just recorded.. I happened to see the corner and owh! there's my "long time no see" saxophone!! then opened it and played it straight...and offcourse recorded it.

so...if we're hear something imperfect...it's because just sketches.. :)

Forgive to be Forgiven

This song was created around 98-99 when La Nina hit. Pray and hope that it will not cause a much worse disaster after flooding everywhere.

Forgive Me  (La Nina)

My childhood & neighbourhood friend, Lexy Sinay wrote in FB :

A new song lyric that has been at the tip of my tongue... and... a new rythm that has been humming in my ears... Demanding to be written... Just got to get it out... So, here it is...

HIGH ON LOVE
Lexy Sinay - Bali

 In the silence of my mind
I think of You...
In the silence of my heart
I feel You...
In the silence of my soul
I find You...
There's only You...
There's only Love...

Now I'm so high on Love
I can hug the clouds...
I'm so high on Love
that I can paint the sky...
I'm so high on Love
I'm so high... high... high... high...
I'm so high on Love...

In the shadow of my doubt
I lost You
In the shadow of my fear
I search for You
In the shadow of despair
I turn to you...
There's only You...
There's only Love...

Now I'm so high on Love
I can hug the clouds...
I'm so high on Love
that I can paint the sky...
I'm so high on Love
I'm so high... high... high...
I'm so high on Love...

Now I'm so high on Love
I can hug the clouds...
I'm so high on Love
that I can paint the sky...
I'm so high on Love
I'm so high... high... high...
Yeah I'm so high
I'm so high on Love...
---------------------------
Off course I didn't know how the rhythm in Lexy's ears... so the melody,
but the lyric... spiritually touched my heart..., then 
i grabbed my guitar...my bamboo flute...  what else ?!
aah... i need a singer actually but no one here at 3AM :(
i'll do my best !
