Written by kaitor on 5:48 AM

Project Pop come with their creative music Dangdut is the Music of My Country, a song in which dangdut has been fused with metal music!. Project Pop from Bandung, Indonesia and known as the fun lyric as their trademark . All the members are from comedy group Padhyangan. There are almost same as Senario in Malaysia who produce music and at the same time work as a comedians . Dangdut was born in Indonesia and has spread to neighboring countries such as Malaysia and some parts of the Philippines. The music is lively and has musical influences from different cultures namely Indian, Arabic and of course, Malay. The word "dangdut" is thought to have originated from the dang-dang-dut-dut sound that comes from the Indian drum tabla which gives the music its heartbeat. The lyrics given to the music are often blatant in issues such as life sufferings, love betrayals, and discontentment towards the political powers that be. In other words, dangdut is supposedly the voice of the poor and oppressed.

I had watched their video clip and it fresh with additional metal music and hip hop. You can download or watch the video clip on You Tube.

I really hope artist in Malaysia can make some different in their music and be more creative. Some of malaysian artist jealous to Indonesian artist because Indonesian music always played on a local radio station.But we must remember the rules only the best product will attract audience, radio station is followed what the listener want. Maybe some said it will never happened if the radio station didn't play their songs.. remember now days internet is the important medium.. so common malaysian artist be different in your music and more creative. You cam make the different.. :)
