More music from Western Bali - this time from the Kaliakah village, home of the harsh "Makepung" buffalo race. However they treat their livestock there, I won't hold it against the cool music on this tape - a meditative soundtrack for mortality and creation.

One of my favorites on this site, so far. Mesmerizing.
Hi Matt,
I posted music that was also recorded for ceremonies around buffalo played on bamboo instruments. I may be incorrect but it seems that both musics are formed in similar ways.
The whips with nails embedded in them sounds horrible. I can understand the recognition that healing from a puncture happens more quickly than the detrimental wounds from being pounded by a stick but with that kind of concern it's ironic that the lacerations made from the nails are tolerated.
