WORLD
Suarasama is a group of many members, mostly ethnomusicological musicians. Founded in 1995 by Irwansyah Harahap and Rithaony Hutajulu , they are based in Medan City in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Suarasama plays contemporary music, exploring conceptually or instrumentally the sounds of African, Middle Eastern, Indian, Sufi Pakistani, Eastern European and Southeast Asian and particularly Sumatran traditions.
Rather than isolating their Sumatran identity within the larger mosaic of Indonesia,they explore the meeting points of their music with the sounds of neighbor cultures, finding a harmony in the confusion. They’re not the first. We’re reminded of John Fahey, the Radha Krsna Temple, the collaborations of Ravi Shankar and Andre Previn, even Ghost and Six Organs of Admitance.
