For all reggae enthusiasts in Jakarta, Jamaica's Conkarah will be performing alongside Ras Muhamad, Pasukan Lima Jari, and more this weekend at 365 Eco Bar in Kemang. If you are curious about what Conkarah will bring in his performance, take a listen to the following mix created by Asia Afrika Soundsystem. Titled Deh Pon Stereo Vol.1, Conkarah brings his own original sound. According to a press release we received from Asia Afrika Soundsystem (who will also perform this sunday), Conkarah fuses reggae with dubstep, creating his own sound titled "Reggaestep". In this particular mix, the Jamaican artist has teamed up with Asia Afrika Soundsystem. Apparently the first collaboration of its kind, Deh Pon Stereo not only introduces Conkarah's style of reggae, but also features a collaboration between himself, Ras Muhamad, and producer Wizzow. Take a listen below!

In 2012, Pearson Index put Indonesia in their lowest rank on Global Education Index. Though 20% of Indonesia’s national budget is spent on education, the quality of our system is still far from its ideal state. Inibudi.org is an online education portal that advises an alternative way in the education system, both for students and teachers.
Vague’s full-length album 'Footsteps' should’ve been playing on our record player by this date, but due to the troubles in production, the release date is postponed. The good news is they decide to fill the void by releasing the second single from the album. “Dissonance” is a perfect follow up to the previously released single, “Inadequate”. If “Inadequate” introduces the album with a sizzling sound of late 20’s self-introspect, “Dissonance” delivers a searing bark of pure angst. It opens with repeated resentful shouts, “We love our mistakes, we despise regrets”, and it closes with a somber instrumental ending. With such introduction, we eager to know how the rest of the album will catch up. Because sometimes it’s a tricky decision in choosing single for albums, just like how some movies are a disappointment because the trailer is already revealing its best parts. Hopefully we’ll get the album soon to prove that our concern is just a false paranoia.
