Some very heavy gong cycles and swirling suling captured on this baleganjur tape - or bedondangan, if you're persnickety about such things. Maybe it's the incessant saturation/distortion that makes the ceng ceng sound like mere bursts of white noise or that much of the higher freqs have simply been eroded away - whatever - there's just something about the fidelity of this cassette that compliments the music perfectly.
