Ethnographic context
This song is an example of a comic interlude. The musician La Podding hooks up his kacapi to an amplifier, imitating an electric guitar and singing a popular song. The "announcer" introduces him in a pretentious radio-style voice. All of this is a comment on urban, popular culture, coming from a "traditional" and rural Bugis kacapi ensemble.
