The Indonesian island of Bali is a dream locale which consistently draws traveling surfers from all corners of the globe. Throughout the last 5 years, videographer Pete Matthews has been documenting the epic waves and diverse landscape that grace this special Indian Ocean isle. Matthews has captured the worlds best surfers along with the lifestyle and essence of four locals who appear more than ready for the world stage. The Godfather of Bali surfing Rizal Tanjung has carved himself a niche in the surf world and leads the way for his best friends Wayan “Betet” Merta, Made “Bol” Adi Putra, and Pepen Hendrix.

Shades of Bali not only looks deep into the lives of these Balinese watermen, it also captures the skilled wave riding of the top-shelf professionals who continually return to this magical atoll. Mikala Jones, Jamie O’Brien, Taj Burrow, Dave Rastavich and others take full advantage of Balis flawless reefs, offshore winds, and endless tube rides. The high-quality, action footage in Shades of Bali is perfectly spliced with commentary by Rizal, Betet, Bol, Mikala Jones, Jamie OBrien, Jesse Merle-Jones and Pete Matthews, all set to an eclectic, soothing soundtrack.

Jane says
I’m done with Sergio
He treats me like a ragdoll
She hides
The television
Says I don’t owe him nothing,
But if he comes back again
Tell him to wait right here for me
Or just
Try again tomorrow
I’m gonna kick tomorrow
Gonna kick tomorrow

include a list:

  • beer
  • whiskey
  • sunscreen
  • cell phone

ADFs distinctive sound is a combination of hard ragga-jungle rhythms, indo-dub basslines, searing sitar- inspired guitars and ‘traditional’ sounds gleaned from their parents’ record collections, shot through with fast-chat conscious lyrics. 1998’s album Rafi’s Revenge on London Records met with much critical acclaim and received a Mercury Prize nomination. By that time already considered one of Britain’s most exciting live bands, this album helped to introduce them to a wider audience. They started off in 1993 at London based organisation Community Music where bassist Dr Das taught music technology.

He teamed up with one of his students, rapper Deeder Zaman and civil rights worker DJ Pandit G to form a sound system to play at anti-racist gigs. The following year they recruited guitarist Chandrasonic and started moving further afield. With Sun-J joining in 1995 on live technology and ‘radical movements,’ the line up was complete. Their debut album Facts and Fictions (Nation Records) came out in 1995 and was largely overlooked by a country obsessed with retro guitar pop.

And at that time, to be ‘Asian’ was yet to be considered ‘cool.’ On the continent however, ADF were given ample opportunity to tour and develop their performance skills.

chin up, girl

it’s easy to embed youtube videos made by other people. one line of code. it’s probably a good idea to describe the video so the viewer knows what to expect. and give the video owner credit.
