The work of the creative collective credited as Seventeen emerges from Indonesia’s rich, interconnected network of musical creators, a community that spans thousands of islands and carries forward a diverse range of cultural and artistic practices that have shaped sound creation across the archipelago for centuries. The sound Ayah, created by this group, exists outside the boundaries of the most common genre labels used to categorize recorded music, and is instead classified under Music/Other, a category that exists to hold all works that do not fit neatly into the pre-defined, widely used genre buckets that structure most global music catalogues.
