Kadapat is a music project by Yogi and Barga and based in Bali, Indonesia. Using Balinese white/black magic as a spirit in experimental electronic-gamelan music with the aim of – conveying traditions and urban legend. Getting to know Kadapat means meeting millennial youth from the suburbs of Bali who were taught gamelan and its traditions from a young age.

Not only technically skilled, they also performs gamelan for traditional and religious ceremonies in Banjar, a neighborhood authorized to regulate and manage the community, based on local tradition and manners. They’re intensely dealing with the conservative norms and its transcendental cosmology.

As millennial entities, they are also embeded in urban culture, technology, and Balinese cosmopolitanism. These hybrid identities become increasingly complex when they experience the dimensions of formal art education with a western pedagogical system.
