Home » Midwest Record : MOONJUNE- DWIKI DHARMAWAN/Pasar Klewer

The piano man leaves the fusion of his debut set off the side and goes more to the melting pot sound that emanates from his native Indonesia. A multi faceted mash up that doesn’t remind you of McLaughlin’s Shakti days, it’s more like acoustic jazz on a busman’s holiday, more like “Take the A Train” on a ride through emerging nations. Quite an ambitious double cd, there’s a load of up and comers on board that should be filling your ears in due course giving it their all here to take this to the next level. A cliché avoiding joy ride, this might well be your welcome to jazz in the next stream. Check it out.
