Nusantara is the name of maritime Southeast Asia and in general refers to the Indonesian Archipelago. It is also the name of the new capital of Indonesia. Following my short visit to various records stores, mainly on Java Island, I stumbled upon many ear-catching local productions. This month’s mixtape includes hip hop, electronic and disco sounds from this trip. Please check @lamunairecords, @midrunsmusic, @grimlocrecords 

Photo: (04/2024 Tampaksiring, Bali, Indonesia) Tirta Empul temple is a Hindu Balinese water temple. The temple compound consists of a bathing structure, famous for its holy spring water, where Balinese Hindus go to for a ritual purification called Melukat. Next to that is a pond with many colourful fish.
