Unlike the majority of glitz & blitz that make up our modern world, hardcore music remains shrouded in mystery, especially when it comes to Cleveland. We talk so much about the DC scene, the Boston scene and of course the New York Scene, but the Clevo scene? not so much. Aside from being home to the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame, Cleveland is also home to some of America's most controversial hardcore bands (e.g Integrity, One Life Crew). In this 16th installment of Heart Attack, my good friend Hilman Fathoni will share to you some of his favorite hardcore/punk jams from the beating heart of Cleveland, enjoy!

American hardcore music has tons of various musical style. From each region, they bring their own tone & emotion, and I think it always depends on what happens around their neighbourhood. Earlier this year I had a conversation through Facebook with my Richmond friend, Sam Roberts. And we talked about how much Clevo has brought influences to my band. Then I did a short research about Cleveland bands from clues that Sam told me about. I found out that bands such as h100s, 9 Shocks Terror, Darvocets until the recent ones like Wetbrain & Prison Moan sort of giving me the same vibes like some of my favorite Chicago bands such as Los Crudos, Raw Nerve, or the almighty Charles Bronson. So that's basically the story of how I discovered yet adored Cleveland bands, within one night. So I'm just gonna call this mix Cleveland in One Night (or Cleveland Satu Malam in Indonesian). Long live the Erbas!
PS: Recently a great documentary piece which discusses about the aforementioned subscene entitled "Destroy Cleveland" just came out this year, so I suppose this can be some sort of celebration to one of important pages in American hardcore history!

Holy crap, it's been like what? a year already? I seriously never thought of having my own music channel until Ken asked me to. Bear in my mind that I love doing this because I dig the whole music-sharing experience which stems from a personal satisfaction of exploring new stuff on daily basis, just like how much I love hearing what my contributors has to offer on their playlist. So from there, Heartattack is born with multiple clicks, endless noises, cuts and guts, the rest is pretty much history.
The discovery factor within punk will always be one of so many key-defining factors on why it survives after all these time. Everytime I browse, or maybe talk to someone about it, I always find out more and more unknown bands or scenes which amazes me so much. But I guess that's the prime beauty of it, there's this some sort of mysterious quality embeeded in that particular world. The familiar feeling you can obtain when you discover rare books at the book fair or something, punk is and will always remain buried in the gutter, waiting to be found. In this 15th installment of Heartattack, I'll share to you some of my personal favorite tracks as well as new discoveries that I've made in the past couple weeks. I probably should stop talking, yeah I thought so. Enjoy!

Episode ketiga Loka Suara Live menampilkan rapper Matter Mos di mana ia bercerita tentang bagaimana ia berangkat dari vokalis band metalcore menjadi salah satu nama penting di skena hip-hop hari ini.
Memperkenalkan salah satu seri video terbaru di Whiteboard Journal, Loka Suara Live. Pengembangan dari channel W_Music yang kini lahir kembali dalam format video.
Polka Wars, which joined the dynamic Jakarta music scene in the beginning of 2010, is one of the bands that attempts to present something new. And though their music is not the kind that would be perfect to accompany you on a slow, Sunday afternoon, the volume of the combined sounds of guitars, drums, and recently, a saxophone, evokes strong emotions without draining your energy. Though they've been active for over two years, in 2012 the group consisting of principal members Karaeng Adjie, Giovanni Rahmadeva, Xandega Tahajuansya & Billy Saleh gained a lot of attention from the media, concert organizers and avid music goers.
We invited Polka Wars to perform at Studio Taman on a Sunday afternoon. Enlisting the help of noisemaker Sawi Lieu to play the synth and Gerinov to play the saxophone, Polka Wars performance brought a full and lively rendition of their momentum-driven music.

Influenced by The Who, The Beatles - among several other legends of the 1960s and 1970s - these two brothers are recognized in the independent music sphere of Indonesia for their brand of rock and roll. Perhaps the comfort of performing with someone you are tied to by blood has also impacted the way The Experience perform their songs, all of which are in English. The casual, but confident vibe of this two-man band is what makes their performances memorable. Their debut album, Summer of Love, was released in 2007 and their second album, Eye Contact, made it to the third rank on Rolling Stone's Top Ten Charts in 2011. We invited the duo to practice and recording space Studio Taman in Kemang a month ago and they showed us why they are a group that everybody has their eyes on.
