With his new MoonJune release Save the Planet, simakDIALOG's gifted guitarist Tohpati-in other contexts, one of the best-known and most highly regarded guitar players in all Indonesia-ventures out on his own with his crack shot unit Ethnomission. Bolstered by the highly simpatico team of bass guitarist Indro Hardjodikoro, percussionists Demas Narawangsa (just 16 years old at the time of this session) and Endang Ramdan (also of simakDIALOG), and suling (Indonesian wooden flute) player Endang Ramdan, and augmented by vocalist Lestari on the track "Bedhaya Ketawang," Ethnomission serves up an exhilarating and wholly original program of instrumental compositions that set a new high-water mark for Indonesian fusion.
