The younger generation of Bali - and many of its older citizens as well - have become quite familiar with a truly global variety of musical genres. Even in the most isolated of the island’s villages, radios blast the latest Western rock hits, Indonesian pop songs, and the immensely popular dangdut, a hybrid of Arabic, Indian and Indonesian music sung to a decidedly Western disco beat. And in urban areas like Denpasar and Kuta, teens decked out in mohawk haircuts, black jeans and heavy leather boots practice their punk style and sound, singing songs in heavily accented English that express their hopes and frustrations with the complexities of modern Bali. And, of course, there are Bali’s famed nightspots, where one can hear the latest jazz, funk, rock and techno hits in a truly cosmopolitan environment. Whatever sound you crave, from the shimmering sweetness of the gamelan to the pulsing beat of the underground, the island’s musical diversity is sure to enchant and inspire you on your journey to Bali.
