You could call Gabber Modus Operandi’s PUXXXIMAXXX LP a ‘scene-defining’ record. That’s except there’s no real ‘scene’ to speak of where the DIY electronic duo come from, deep in the belly of the neo-colonial beast of Bali—an island province of Indonesia where tourism is its biggest industry, mainstream house and techno its musical staple. “Bali is like an Australian backyard for some people,” jokes Ican Harem about the capital of Denpasar where they both live, just a four-hour flight from Perth. “It’s basically like when you go to Ibiza. Those are the sounds, that’s the kind of the people, that’s how they dress up, that’s how they dance.”

Otherwise known by the project’s GMO initialism, Harem and DJ Kasimyn (aka Aditya Surya Taruna) first released PUXXXIMAXXX on influential Yogyakarta label Yes No Wave in 2018, before performing the Javan capital’s Nusasonic festival that same year. It takes its title from their original name that is a play on an unmentionable curse word, and it’s the result of a clusterfuck of influences that blew up with access to the internet in Indonesia, enabled by cheap Chinese smartphones in the mid-2010s. “Now, all the content that we posted in social media basically came from this layer,” says Kas about this new medium for cultural expression across the country’s diverse and disconnected archipelago—a girl in a remote village dances on Tik Tok, construction workers play act while on the job. “This is like the amazing channel where they make their own content. They make these absurd jokes—like, local jokes. They just celebrate it. I don’t think they think about making content. They just want to record shit, but it’s kind of an explosion of this amazing and beautiful thing; of people crossing the Island and then showing them, ‘Oh, basically behind my house, there is a traditional party where people get possessed by a tiger’.”
From the derivative metal, punk and rock influences of the country’s first ‘indie explosion’ to the ‘lowbrow’ pop and local dance music hybrids of funkot and dangdut koplo, PUXXXIMAXXX is a brilliantly chaotic pastiche. It references breakcore and gabber while framed by traditional gamelan pentatonic scales. There’s the high-pitched trumpet opener of Sangkakala I and the ritualistic beat and looped vocal samples of Hey Nafsu, along with a fascinating montage of the Javanese jathilan possession dance for their wildly popular Dosa Besar music video. “If you think we’re doing ritualistic stuff, or playing gamelan, we’re not,” adds Kas. “We are around that area but at the same time, we also listen to Prodigy.”

GMO’s speculative Indonesian rave is infectious. It’s been dubbed ‘post-alay’ by the duo in tribute to the cheesy cultural phenomenon of the suburban teenager and has since caught on worldwide. Follow-up EP HOXXXYA was released on Shanghai label SVBKVLT in 2019, earning the band slots at CTM Berlin, Kampala’s Nyege Nyege Festival and performances in China with Asian Dope Boys. This is a level of recognition that’s well-deserved for a sound that snubs the western canon in favour of a hybrid post-colonial sound that’s pure imagination. “We just kind of like suck that energy that, actually people kind of enjoy their identity,” says Kas. “Especially the people not from the big city, because people from big cities, they always want to have confirmation from the West. Like, ‘I would love to play techno, and then play in Berghain in Berlin and LA’, that kind of stuff. But there is a layer that people don’t give a shit about that, they just want to have fun.”

Ninos Du Brasil - Condenado Por Un Idioma Desconhecido (End Train Remix) [premiere]

SÝN - Restos.mp3

Eulalie’s lyrics:
Original(Japanese) -
この家に隠れて　長く時はすぎた
この家の空気は　とうに淀んでしまった
この家は窓まで　かたく閉ざされてた
この家に隠れて　押し殺した思いは

(病んでいる、病んでいる)

この家に隠れて
この家に隠れて
この家に隠れて
満たされたフリした

誰にも会えずに
誰にも会えずに
過ごしてきたけど

夜になって起きる生活
夜が開けて最後の挨拶だ
君の中にもう一度さ
戻りたいと星にいのったんだ

新しく始まる生活
明日になれば消える世界で
君のそばでもう一度さ　
踊りたいと月にいのったんだ

(Lyrics in Roma-ji):
Kono ie ni kakulete
Nagaku toki wa sugita
Kono ie no kuuki wa
Touni yodonde shimatta

Kono ie wa mado made
Kataku tozasaleteta
Kono ie ni kakulete
Oshikoloshita omoi wa

(Yande ilu, yande ilu)

Kono ie ni kakulete
Kono ie ni kakulete
Kono ie ni kakulete
Mitasaleta fuli shita

Dalenimo aezuni
Dalenimo aezuni
Dalenimo aezuni
Sugoshitekita kedo

Yoluni natte okilu seikatsu
Yo ga akete saigo no aisatsu da
Kimi no naka ni mou ichido sa
Modoli tai to hoshi ni inottanda

Atalashikh hajimalu seikatsu
Asu ni naleba kielu sekai de
Kimi no soba de mou ichido sa
Odoli tai to tsuki ni inottanda

(Translated into English):
Hiding in this house for too long
The air in this house has become stagnant
The windows of this house are closed tightly
Hiding in this house, and the thoughts I suppressed

(I'm sick , it is sick)

Hiding in this house
Hiding in this house
Hiding in this house
I’ve pretended to be fulfilled

Without seeing anyone
Without seeing anyone
Without seeing anyone
I've spent but

A life of getting up at night comes
we say last goodbyes when the night opens
I prayed to the stars to return in you once more

A new days births
In a world that will disappear tomorrow
I prayed to the moon to dance beside you once more

Star Madman’s lyrics:
I cannot flee
I cannot escape 
I cannot sleep
I just lay awake 

I’m all alone
Consumed by my mind
I’m all alone
Running out of time

The doors are locked
I don’t have a key
The exit’s blocked
It’s too dark to see

Trapped in this house
I long to be free
But i’ve my doubts
That I’ll ever leave

I isolate
To fight the disease
Incarcerated
Down on my knees
Contaminated
Never at ease
Alienated
So help me please

Hiding out
In my house

Amnesia Scanner & Freeka Tet - STROBE.RIP
Label: PAN
Cat.No.: PAN 139
Release Date: 16 June 2023
Purchase: PAN.lnk.to/STROBE.RIP

Amnesia Scanner’s third full-length album titled STROBE.RIP is a collaboration with the artist and musician Freeka Tet, who joins the album and associated live performances as a vocalist and creative collaborator.

Released by PAN records, STROBE.RIP is part of a broader series of live performances, installations, videos and physical products created by the group.

Since its inception in 2014, Ville Haimala and Martti Kalliala have continued to evolve and redefine Amnesia Scanner through experimentation across online and IRL realms. This album brings them a step closer to the latter.

With French-born, New York City-based Freeka Tet on board, STROBE.RIP acquires a new array of influences that draw from the multidisciplinary artist’s hacker mindset, shaping the sound into new forms. As a programmer and technologist, Freeka Tet’s work straddles commerce and art, combining intuitive and performative modes of expression with emergent technology and creative coding. Much like Amnesia Scanner, Tet draws from online vernacular and techno-magic to create satirical, uncanny work – artificially augmented, and highly engineered sounds, textures, images and ideas that translate memes and code into a more human and affective language.

Haimala and Kalliala say, “Amnesia Scanner is now living in the world it has built,” signaling a sincere commitment to the act. The human dimension in STROBE.RIP is chaotic: a reverse hero’s journey that merges deep-fried baroque with the quasi-angelic into a psychotic megamix of tropes, lyrics, genres, and sonic palettes that are both disorienting and deeply resonant.

The opening track Tongue Demons perfectly summarizes this, with blaring synth stabs and frenetic drum patterns paving the way for a broken melody arranged through a digital brass chord progression. Giggle and Bounds follow right after: two outstanding pieces of introspection signaling the melodic turn of the album, with the latter almost posing as a weirdo 2-step ballad filled with deep pads and pitched-up and down vocals.

The 160bpm, 4-to-4 pulsing kicks of Ledge and the palm-muted chords of Disperse serve as a perfect build-up to Ride, right in the middle of the tracklist: a summer hit from hell, a crooked saxophone-graced tune carried by a crusty, Balearic acoustic arpeggio. The alt acoustics continue with Damon, or at least before the track turns from Nirvana’s Unplugged to Slayer’s double kick drum pedals and becomes thrashtronica with Tet on screamo duties.

Things get softer with Clown, specifically in the chanted refrain, and even more aetherial in the almost trip-hop timbres of abandoned.club, where chopped-and-screwed vocals sing “I lost myself in the club.” Scorpions, Bats & Spiders is the abstract gem declaring the death of Deconstructed Club Music—a genre created by journalists and pioneered by the duo, among others. The words “deconstructed,” “club,” and “panel discussion” are spelled out in a vortex throughout the track as if they were to be carved on the genre’s imaginary gravestone. Closing the album, the saw bass of Cat serves Euro-electro à la Benny Benassi’s Satisfaction, while the doomed outro Merge closes the album in a triumphant aggregation of noise and pixelated drums that render the image of a crust-punk ensemble.

Thank you for listening!

The Kenian vocals by Sofiya Nzau sing about someone igniting a fire within her ("Naniguo muthee akoragwo mwaki"). The fire symbolizes a powerful force, possibly representing passion, ambition, or strength. She also mentions wanting to protect this fire and not let it die out ("Na nianjirite ndigakuhikie")

Taken from SBKT029: Gabber Modus Operandi - HOXXXYA
Release date: 16th August 2019

For the 29th release on SVBKVLT we are excited to present ‘HOXXXYA’, a new album from Indonesia’s Gabber Modus Operandi. Artwork by Asian Dope Boys’ Chen Tianzhuo, mastered by Raphael Valensi

‘For this album, we owe a lot to the metal/noise scene and to the small rapidly growing rave crew in Denpasar, while at the same time a ton of influence strongly came from all the sounds blasting out from our banjar (neighborhood) community, the loudest spirits of Dangdut Koplo and Indonesian happy hardcore, to gamelan sounds and everything in between.’
