Menjadi vinyl

Menjadi marks the onset of a new dawn for Morphine Records, with the album from the Indonesian duo the first in a series of long players to feature co-production duties from the man formerly known as Morphosis, Rabih Beaini. You might notice that handsome full colour sleeve too, and this is how Morphine will also proceed with French-born designer Nathalie Du Pasquier commissioned to paint the covers with the overall artistic direction curated and designed by Tankboys. Menjadi is possibly the first chance for many to immerse in the wholly unique and transcendental sounds of Senyawa as Rully Shabara's vocals interweave with Wukir Suryadi's dynamic implementation of the bambuwukir, a bamboo instrument the Indonesian musician invented himself. It's unlikely you'll hear another LP like this in 2015.
