Abstract

Setabuhan is a musical group consisting of three people who have different musical concepts from the others. The form of Setabuhan group music is rhythmic or percussion music in which two people are percussionists, and the other plays the exploration of vocal sound. The musical instruments used by Setabuhan are drums, percussion and vocal music using digital effects. The form of music used by this Setabuhan music group is not commonly used in structural forms of musical compositions because it does not use melodic musical instruments, and the vocal music does not have lyrics. The form of the Setabuhan group performance is a collaboration of rhythmic music with the arts of Pencak Silat, or martial arts. The rhythm and tempo of the beats tend to be loud with a fast rhythmic game. This group becomes very interesting and has particular characteristics because not many musical groups have the same concept as Setabuhan. The Setabuhan music group is not well known in Indonesia but has performed many performances in various other countries. The focus of the research on the Setabuhan music group is: 1) The form of Setabuhan music performances; and 2) The creativity of the Setabuhan music group. The research method used in this research is qualitative with descriptive exposure. The research subjects were musicians of the Setabuhan music group in Yogyakarta. Data collection techniques were observation, interviews, documentation, and data analysis.

The conclusion of this research is the form and creativity process of the Setabuhan music group, which is very interesting and has the characteristics of its work and form of performance. © 2022, Faculty of Performing Arts, Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta.
