Bowl-z I love the guitar soloing on "Just Kidung". A beautiful showcase of Dewa's skill, range, and versatility.

Carsten Pieper Great guitar centered fusion (with a pleasant Eastern touch) from Indonesia. Dewa Budjana clearly doesn't dislike being compared to Pat Metheny as he's playing with the Metheny rhythm section here!
Shiny HD-offering, as you might have guessed by the album title... Favorite track: Saniscara.

John Cratchley East meets West in a dynamic fashion!Like all good fusions,this one is seamless yet highlighting the dichotomy in styles.The addition of vibes gives this a very cool feel and is terrific.The skill level on display is exemplary as are the compositions;complex and mercurial.

about

Joined by a superb cast of marquee players, Dewa Budjana's new release (his 4th on MoonJune), "Hasta Karma," sets a new benchmark for modern progressive jazz excellence in the 21st century. With a vibe and feel more akin to that of a band with decades of experience together, Dewa and his stellar session-mates -- the legendary NYC vibraphonist, Joe Locke, and Pat Metheny Unity Group's rhythm core: the fabulous, articulate young upright bassist, Ben Williams, and the extraordinary maestro drummer, Antonio Sanchez -- create superlative atmospheric textures that transport listeners to destinations of soaring altitude. Augmenting proceedings further is the glowing work of the legendary Indonesian keyboardist, Indra Lesmana.

Showcasing his compositional and arrangement skills at their absolute finest, most finely-honed, Budjana has delivered his ultimate masterpiece in "Hasta Karma." Capitalizing on their extraordinary gifts, Dewa Budjana pushes the band, and his music, to new, unparalleled heights. Oozing quality at every turn and dripping emotion throughout, this is music that is supremely visionary, ambitious and majestic. ... and, perhaps in spite of its polish, it is undeniably straight from the heart.

All the players involved contribute some of the most convincing performances of their impressive careers, yet the multifarious displays of individual greatness never upstage the corporate sanctity of the musical moment. This is modern progressive jazz at its most sensitive -- and its very best.
