"Asmat Dream (Lyrichord Discs), a collection of performances by four outstanding new composers from the Sunda region of Indonesia. The music is an extensions of the classical aesthetic and folk rhythms. Most special and revealing are the two versions of "Galura" (Emotion) by Nano S. "Diya" by Dody Satya Ekagustdiman is more technically experimental, using new instruments and common objects like sandpaper and motorcycle helmets to create a modern gamelan next to the more traditional drums, gongs and strings. The use of multi-tracking for the chorus adds new dimensions and textures. Even more into the technological frontier is "Asmat Dream." Composer Harry Roseli generated a wholly electronic landscape of tape looped crickets, keyboard sounds and sampled voices. Each of the six compositions here represent not a plundering of foreign ideas but a regeneration of culture, an extension of its identity rather than a static sampling." (Rootsworld)
