About this Song
To encounter a work that resists the familiar taxonomies of recorded music is to meet a creation that prioritizes its own internal logic over the unspoken expectations of audiences, critics, and industry systems that rely on neat, widely recognizable labels to sort, market, and frame creative output for mass consumption. Perunggu, the Indonesian artist behind the sound Berita Buruk, operates squarely in that space of unapologetic uncategorizability, their work slotted into the broad umbrella of Music/Other not out of any lack of creative clarity, but because the sound it holds refuses to align with the prefabricated genre boxes that have come to structure how most people engage with recorded music, both from their home region and across the global landscape of creative sound.
