Negoro Angin, the Indonesian hip-hop work created in partnership with vocalist Linda Ayunda as part of Simpatik Music’s ongoing creative output, was recorded live as the centerpiece of a performance held for the graduation of SMK BINA UTAMA, a secondary vocational school in Kendal, Central Java. The track carries the distinct creative identity of Simpatik Music, the Sidoarjo-based music collective that builds its catalog around a signature blend of sounds that sets its work apart from other regional groups operating across Indonesia’s sprawling local music scene. Every layer of the live recording of Negoro Angin is shaped by the coordinated work of Simpatik Music’s full roster of in-house musicians, each bringing their specialized craft to the performance to bring the track’s core vision to life for the crowd of students, families, and staff gathered to mark the school’s milestone graduation event.
