INTERVIEW bersama Akbar dari band: A STONE A

astonea Sejarah A Stone A yang saya ambil dari www.myspace.com/astonea , kurang lebih seperti ini: Read in Indonesian accent “Ah stoon Ah”. The name is taken from the scene of The Rolling Stones fanatic fans’ shout, in freestyle translation A stone A means “play the Stones dude!” or “you like the Stones dude” or “you’re stoned dude!”

Mid 2003, A stone A was formed in Bandung, they met each other in Indonesia University of Education as Art & Language Education students. At the first time the band was formed as an art project which is a kind of a fake rock n’ roll band hoax, the project was made to mocking the massive “re-trend” of vintage rock music & fashion on that time. The band started in a shape of Sound Art Performance in Bandung art scene with the cheap & 2nd hand sound gadget explorations.

At that time A stone A was composed by Ori Riantori (guitar, misc), Andry Mochammad (guitar, misc. things), Muhammad Akbar (vocal), and Erwin Windhu Pranata (drums). The song writings are inspired by the routinities, city absurdity, realism, and urban romances.

In the same year, they started create and record their own songs (at a cheap studio in their campus) which are very unpatterned, fast, brutal, raw, and noisy. It was released in a Long Playing CD album called “Super Hebred” under their own D.I.Y. record label Pangseng Records. In the end of 2003, The Rolling Stones and The Smiths die hard fan Mufti Priyanka a.k.a Amenk joined the band to play bass section which was vacant. 2004 was the year of their first EP called “Adaptor Puitis”, the first A stone A digital sound and absurd music album. More poetic, more ethereal and patternized with a very low quality sound.
