    DECENTRALIZATION SHOULD BE THE FUTURE.

    Indonesian doom duo SENYAWA — vocalist Rully Shabara and instrumentalist Wukir Suryadi — released their new studio album on February 21, 2021.

    ALKISAH made available via a sustained cooperative effort involving a number of labels across the globe, as a way to decentralize the hierarchical workings of the music industry, most importantly, the distribution system.

    ALKISAH translates roughly to "Once Upon a Time," and tells the story of a formerly advanced society that comes to recognize the impending destruction of its established order. Redemption is nowhere to be found— doom is here, and what happens afterward is all that matters.

    Each participating label was given free rein to decide the format, cover design, packaging and the number of copies they wish to release.

    The labels involved were encouraged to include remixes/reinterpretations of the album by local artists, as part of the release.
    Each label represents the country where it is based, in order to avoid distribution overlap, minimize shipping distances, and empower smaller scattered powers to grow and connect. The way it should be.

    Senyawa - Alkisah LP 12" (BALI VERSION). Limited of 50 copies + bonus remixes.
    Pressed in white marble 12” vinyl enveloped by premium black paper and two colors screen-printed clear jacket; complemented by our handpicked fragrance on the lyrics inlay card.

    Includes unlimited streaming of ALKISAH via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
