Indonesian Jazz Band, Krakatau "Egrang Funk" live... Distinctive sound of Krakatau music originated from ancient Gamelan tonal system called 'S'lendro', which is known in Karawitan traditional music of Sunda, Java, and Bali (Indonesian ethnics) . Based on S'lendro tonal system, Krakatau adapts Western diatonic musical elements, which energized by modern feels of jazz, rock and pop in a form of fusion with various ethnic rhythms of Indonesian musical traditions. Through devotion, Krakatau constantly developing its basic traditional Karawitan Gamelan musical style to donates new genre of sound into World Music. Despite the distinctive frequency of particular tone that could sound peculiar to Western ears, the treasure of rhythmic expression is valuable language to communicate to global audiences. Further more, Krakatau is continuously adapting Western diatonic elements into its basic S'lendro tonal system. The uniqueness of Krakatau music is indescribable by any exotic line of words, the only way to find out is that, "One must see and hear the difference".
