"Batu Bule" Selonding, is probably one of the first Gamelan Selonding groups integrated by foreigner players. During the years 2018 and 2019, some scholar friends got together in the island of Bali, decided to learn and record some of the oldest gamelan songs from East Bali.
"Batubulan" (Lunar Stone) is the name of the village where Sanggar Tawaketa is located, the center of their Gamelan Slonding studies. The name of this record is a wink between the name of the village and the word "Bule", which is commonly used by locals referring to foreigners.
This performance was recorded in Pura Samuan Tiga, an ancient temple located in Bedulu Village. This holy space is recognized for being a pillar, host of meetings where the roots of Balinese Hinduism were formed.
Gamelan Selonding is a Traditional Balinese musical ensemble that is older than other types that are now popular in the island. It dates back to the 900s, and belongs to the Golongan Tua classification of ensembles, along with Gambang, Gender Wayang, and Angklung.
It is a sacred Gamelan, often used to complete religious ceremonies in Bali. The distribution of Selonding Gamelan in Karangasem Regency can be found in several old villages. In the context of the traditional religion, Selonding Gamelan is used to accompany large ceremonial processions such as cremation, wedding, or birthday temple ceremonies.
Until between 20-40 years ago, selonding instruments and their attendant repertoire existed exclusively in Bali Aga (pre-majapahit indigenous Balinese) villages in Karangasem, Bali's easternmost regency.
Some examples of Aga villages with selonding traditions include: Tenganan Pagringsingan, Bungaya, Selat, Bugbug, Bebandem and Asak.
