About this Song
The catalogue’s classification of Music/Mix was developed to hold space for sonic works that resist the narrow boundaries of traditional genre labels, centering the full range of creative expression that emerges from every region represented in our archive, rather than forcing works into pre-existing frameworks that may not capture their core identity. This classification is particularly meaningful for works originating in Indonesia, a nation whose archipelagic landscape has fostered longstanding cross-cultural exchange, creative hybridity, and sonic innovation that often defies the limited genre categories imported from mainstream Western music industry systems. For the sound titled Puasa, this classification is not just a logistical marker, but a recognition that the work exists in the lineage of Indonesian creative practice that blends, reworks, and reimagines sonic traditions to create something that cannot be reduced to a single, pre-defined genre.
