About

I am a dynamic and culturally fluent music producer with over 9 years of experience in broadcast media, contemporary composition, and education. I specialize in blending Indonesian traditional elements with modern music technology to create unique and engaging compositions. Currently, I am completing my Master of Music at the University of Queensland under a prestigious LPDP scholarship, focusing on cross-cultural composition, orchestration, and sound research.

I have produced over 300 original compositions and arrangements for broadcast and academic contexts and supported interdisciplinary research and students in creative music-making. My passion lies in experimental music projects and mentoring emerging musicians as I continue to expand my expertise in music production, orchestration, and sound design.

Pak Kardiman is a boundary-pushing music project that blends Indonesian roots with global club culture. With a playful yet experimental edge, the project reimagines dangdut, gamelan, and other Nusantara sounds through house, garage, and electronic textures. Pak Kardiman isn’t just about tracks it’s a collective spirit, a celebration of heritage in conversation with the present, and a fresh voice connecting Yogyakarta to the wider world.
