I'm planning a trip to Java in late May or early June - a week in Bandung
and another traveling around the island to Cianjur, Solo and Jakarta - for
the purpose of gathering 78 rpm discs of tembang Sunda (made by HMV and
Odeon, mostly between 1927 and 1932).  But I'm also looking for any LPs, 45s
or 78s of dangdut, kroncong, Javanese rock and gamalan, Sundanese or
Javanese.  I'm in touch with a number of specialists and academics, but
given the intensity and short time-span of this trip (a one-in-a-lifetime
journey as I see it), I'd be profoundly grateful for contacts with any other
dealers or individuals who could lead me to more recordings.
Anyone with any recorings of these kinds should please also be in touch with
me for a project I'm planning for release in about a year.
many bests,
Ian
