The original Kuntilanak (which I’ve reviewed here) I do really love. So, obviously, I was looking forward to see the sequel, Kuntilanak 2, as well. Like, who wouldn’t, right? It’s interesting, as it’s actually a direct sequel, that means, it follows more-less straight after the ending of the original movie. But first, we see 3 kids going to play in the haunted boardinghouse (where the most of the original Kuntilanak was based). Not the best…
Vallendusk is a prime example of a band you can easily miss being overwhelmed with the avalanche of music available everyday on a global scale.

This short (slightly over 30 minutes) album, self-released by the band, offers 10 tracks (one of those is the intro). I don’t know about every track here,…
There’s no point in discussing labels are an integral part of every music scene (and business), Indonesia being no exception and as such I’ve decided to get in touch with people behind them also to give our readers the insight into how those labels work. Erick is my chatmate for quite a some time, and his Carnivorous Records being a very young label, I’ve had no difficulty in deciding which one is the first to…
