DISCUS

"[The music is] a veritable patchwork of jazz, fusion, Sundan traditional and Balinese music, contemporary classical and classical chamber, pop, pop jazz, prog rock, heavy metal and dissonant avant-garde. In short, the band tackles just about every imaginable genre that lies between Pink Floyd and Weather Report. The vocals follow a similar pattern, featuring both male and female vocalizations that can be normal one minute and hysterical the next." (Progarchives.com)

This multi-instrumental band has an incredible range of influences such as jazz, prog rock, pop, classical, heavy metal. The songs are all very experimental, but each song itself is a diferent experience. As far I got, there are five male and two female vocals. It's great, but I won't recommend to beginners.

Discus Menggebrak Amerika Serikat

Nama kelompok musik Discus nyaris tak terdengar di blantika musik Indonesia. Namun, nama Discus justru cukup sering diulas majalah musik luar negeri seperti Expose, majalah khusus progressive rock terbitan Amerika, serta majalah- majalah Eropa lainnya.Grup yang memakai nama ikan hias ini sebenarnya telah merilis album pertama Discus 1st yang dirilis Mellow Records (Italia) dan diedarkan di Indonesia oleh Aquarius Musikindo.
"Mungkin musik kami jauh dari kesan pop. Lebih rumit dan eksperimental. Bayangkan, kami mencoba menyatukan begitu banyak jenis musik, mulai dari musik jalanan, jazz, rock, hingga etnik Jawa," kata Iwan Hasan, sang gitaris yang juga leader Discus.
Dalam review-nya, majalah Expose edisi lalu memuji Discus sebagai "...best of the year stuff, this one gets our highest recommendation...". Bahkan sejumlah kritisi musik progressive rock di Eropa sepakat menempatkan album Discus 1st sebagai lima besar album prog-rock terbaik Eropa akhir tahun 1999 lalu.
Di mata orang asing, boleh jadi elemen musik etnis Jawa yang terkandung dalam Discus 1st, masih memikat. "Itu tidak kami pungkiri. Discus menjadi titik perhatian karena masih mau membawa nuansa musik tradisional kita," lanjut Iwan.
Tidak mengherankan bila kemudian Peter Renfro, penginisiatif acara tahunan "ProgDay" yang menampilkan band-band progressive rock seluruh dunia, mengundang Discus untuk tampil di Amerika setelah mendengar debut album Discus.
