about

Liner notes by Jimmy Trash:

Over the course of this album, a listener will recognise Tomi's ability to consume, distort, and find hidden meanings within original tunes, meanings perhaps that were even hidden to the original composers. As the song at the centre of Tomi's "Genjermania" project, his revamped version of M. Arief's "Genjer Genjer" contains all of the darkness and shrouded violence of the period of Indonesian history it represents. It is permeated with the horror of his father's experience of uncovering severed limbs, leftover from sloppy executions, whilst playing in the wild. The language is that of M. Arief's mother tongue, East Javanese Osing
