Another big event last week was of course the IMF World Bank annual meeting that many were praising as a great success for Bali tourism, while others only noticed that there were less tourists around. Great for the hotels in Nusa Dua, less so for the rest of tourism areas in south Bali as 40k normal tourist beds were off the market. They say it will bring more quality tourists in the future, but for last week most businesses were down. Inside this edition we travel over to Yogyakarta again, this time to experience a dawn trip to Borobudur with Dan Ashcroft and company. He also takes a rather good photograph, too. There are plenty of events coming up, with Halloween gigs being the name of the game next week and once again Halloween is doing a marathon, with events over five nights. Get your costumes ready!

Wake Up Call was a downright huge festival a couple of weekends ago. Probably even bigger than what the organisers could have wished for. But why wouldn’t it be as the line-up was huge from all over the planet, with an exceptional setup in the gardens and pool area of W Retreat Bali and Woobar. The thousands of people who attended were all gleaming with joy and so they should have been. We are looking forward to next year’s edition already (if there will be one). We will let you know more about that soon.

Check inside for all the nightlife action over the next two weeks. And don’t forget to follow @thebeat.bali on Instagram and check our website, thebeatbali.com for all the latest events. Updated daily.

FEATURE TRAVEL

Borobudur sunrise. [Text and images. Dan Ashcroft]

t’s chilly and still dark as we amble across the dewy grass towards a wrought iron gate, which is manned by a couple of yawning guards. The taller one smiles, briefly checks our tickets, and waves us through to join a dozen or so other people ascending the steep stone stairway to Buddhist heaven. It’s coming up to 5am and the pitch black of night has given way to the inky-blue of dawn. The temple looms above, but it’s hard to make out any detail yet. We huff and puff our way up the steps as thousands, maybe millions, have done before us, and suddenly we’re there – on the uppermost stupas amongst the famous bells that house a myriad of seated Buddhas.

www.thebeatbali.com

Minutes later, an audible gasp goes up as the first rays of sunlight break over Mount Merapi to the east – its apogee grazed by a whisp of cloud. As the sun continues to rise everything is bathed in a warm light that turns the bells a vibrant orange. The misty forest canopy stretches off in every direction and all we can hear is the chirp of birdsong. The effect is simply breathtaking – a sunrise like no other I have witnessed, and one I will never forget. To check it out for yourself, get on over to Yogyakarta (barely an hour’s flight from Bali), where most hotels and local drivers there will have no trouble organizing an early ride out to the temple.

CD REVIEW

7/10

a very pretty daze.

KURT VILE

Bottle it In

Even in the more horizontal moments of Kurt Vile’s music, there has always been the fidgety presence of someone with a restless spirit. You can hear it in his vocal delivery, a Philadelphian drawl that sounds deceptively like a yawn but is often probing and constantly wandering. Vile made this seventh solo album at various studios across America, sessions squeezed in between shows and family vacays, and he sounds at home being on the move. His voice, so important to the songs, always needs a strong musical anchor. The tumbling Americana of 2015’s B’lieve I’m Goin Down… gave it room to breathe, and here psychedelic jams built around Tom Petty style classic rock give it license to roam. Those expecting Vile to straighten up his act in the hope of replicating

the unlikely arena success of his friends and former band The War On Drugs haven’t been playing close enough attention to his work. Vile thrives when he sounds like he’s on a wild ramble and with three songs (the slow-motion folk-rock of Bassackwards, the dreamy title track and the sparse Skinni Mini) in and around the ten-minute-mark, he’s given himself plenty of room to stretch out. It doesn’t always pay off, but Bottle it In sure cements his place as an artist following his own lead. Dan Ashcroft

The Deck Restaurant & Bar

ere we are, after another great day well spent in Kuta, at The Deck Restaurant & Bar enjoying some of the yummiest food for an early dinner with a friend. Seated at the table with comfortable couches for our maximum comfort as we had quite a walk around before. There were also long tables around the edge of the restaurant where you can enjoy your meals while watching the hustle and bustle on Legian street. Billiard tables are also available if you fancy some pool, while enjoying your beers. As per usual, cocktails are always a great way to start so we did just that. I got myself the Polygamy Rp 90K which is mix of vodka, blackcurrant liquor, apple juice, cranberry juice, sweet and sour while my friend ordered himself the Illusion Rp 85K : vodka, coconut liquor, melon liquor, blue curacao, pineapple juice, lime juice. They both turned out to be perfect drinks to refresh!

www.thebeatbali.com

FOOD Our mains were served not long after, Fillet Mignon Rp 105K was one fabulous dish, this grill brushed beef tenderloin steak with garlic oil served with mashed potatoes, buttered vegetables and mushroom sauce was absolutely tender and delicious. I especially loved how perfect the mashed potatoes were. Potato Brava’s Rp 35K was tasty too, deep fried marinated potatoes with Cajun spices and spread with bread crumbs tasting like a tastier version of potato wedges fries. We loved it. We wanted something sweet to finish, and the waiter recommended Pisang goreng keju & ice cream Rp 40K and Dadar gulung Rp 45K. We took the recommendation and they didn’t disappoint! Balinese fried banana fritters with cheese served with a choice of ice cream was so good, and the Indonesian traditional crepe rolls with caramelized coconut and brown sugar filling which happens to be one of my all time favorites was absolutely to die for. Dadar gulung and pisang goreng never tasted so good!

Diner done right at The Deck with top notch service and great ambiance, the restaurant offers a great variety of food and drinks from Gado-gado to pasta and pizza, The Deck has got you covered.

MANISH’S ZODIAC PREDICTIONS The Beat astrologer Manish Kumar Arora reads into the next two weeks. ARIES ( 21 March – 19 April )

CANCER ( 21 June – 22 July )

Partnering, compromising and negotiating are the primary areas of focus for you this period. It’s a time when paying close attention to others’ needs, wants, schedules, and plans rather than your own is most rewarding. You are called upon to learn about the value of the team. You may need to give freedom to your romantic partner instead of expecting him or her to follow a script of your own making. You learn the value of brotherly love and the benefits of a sense of belonging to a community. Favorable Dates : 23, 25, 31 Favorable Colors : Red & White

You need to get smart about money this period. There will be a strong temptation to spend at every turn during this prosperous and expansive period. There will be more money but exercise caution with your cash. The temptation to spend will be overwhelming at times but use your shrewd caution and watch how your money makes money when you save it. A partner or love interest may take special notice again, and singles could meet someone new. Romantic charm runs exceptionally high this period. Favorable Dates : 23, 26, 30 Favorable Colors : Yellow & Blue

TAURUS ( 20 April – 20 May )

LEO ( 23 July – 22 August )

This is not the best time of year for you to take the lead, present your ideas, or to aggressively pursue personal plans. Instead, getting organized, paying bills and negotiating with others are important activities for you. Career and money matters might become complicated from midperiod. Old debts or complicated finances might be revisited. If you are single, you could meet someone new and very promising. If you are married, sex will become even more intimate and love will assume a deeper level of understanding. Favorable Dates : 19, 22, 24 Favorable Colors : Red &Blue

Receiving good news about your career can lift your spirits this period – things are moving forward now. You will be learning about letting go of your attachment to the drama of romance and personal relationships, as well as your wilfulness. Events are such that you move towards a more objective approach to your life and you cultivate true friendships. A romantic affair may be tested. Friends and groups can become more important and a fortunate beginning can see you working more with these interests. Favorable Dates : 19, 21, 31 Favorable Colors : Yellow & White

GEMINI ( 21 May – 20 June )

VIRGO ( 23 August – 22 September )

You can develop skills to make you more independent financially. Many of you are feeling strong urges to break free from your routine and to express yourselves in a freer manner. For the most part, you are getting exactly what you want this period, and people are anxious to please you. Singles should keep an eye out for love opportunities around the 16-17th.You may find that you are relied upon for emotional support from a partner. You may be confronted intellectually, psychologically, or physically with sexual matters and situations. Favorable Dates : 19, 25, 26 Favorable Colors : Red &Yellow

You will be motivated to take important actions that affect your future, working hard to get attention from the public and those with power and influence. Work matters are moving forward in pleasing ways, and you have the chance to showcase just how creative you can be. If you have been looking for love in all the wrong places, your luck is about to change. If you are already in a committed relationship, you will find love even more rewarding. While you are in the need of some down time, your charm isn’t . Favorable Dates : 19, 23, 30 Favorable Colors : Green & White

www.thebeatbali.com

LIBRA ( 23 September – 22 October )

CAPRICORN ( 22 December – 19 January )

It’s time to formulate some clear goals and plans. Circumstances are such that you need to develop some healthy habits, routines, and schedules. Believing in a grand plan is fine, but practical concerns need to be dealt with as well. There will be confusion or a disagreement over finances and shared funds, debts and taxes, not to mention loans or mortgages. Strong emotions will rise to the surface and you’ll have issues that need sorting with a partner or close associate. Favorable Dates : 18, 24, 27 Favorable Colors : Red & Blue

This could be a time when blocks that have been holding you back in your new direction begin to release, as family matters, real estate transactions and the like move forward. You’ll be rescuing your career and public life from the depredations of those who may be less mature and experienced than you are. You can move on with domestic restructuring and family plans will fall into place. It’s also definitely the time to make decisions about relationships, especially if you have been enjoying a secret affair with a mysterious figure in the preceding weeks. Favorable Dates : 19, 22, 29 Favorable Colors : Yellow & Green

SCORPIO ( 23 October – 21 November )

AQUARIUS ( 20 January – 18 February )

Whether you decide to start a business, or take on a new career, you’ll be learning new skills—and for those not likely to go on with more formal schooling, advanced training is in the stars. Higher education may appeal to the intellectuals among you, or the intensive study of a particular subject. This is a good time for sorting out anything that has been blocking your progress. This period turns your attention to the joys of romance, the pleasures of the little ones and, most dear to your heart, the thrill of speculation. Favorable Dates : 18, 21, 27 Favorable Colors : Red & Yellow

This is a time when you are likely to seek, or be given, a public forum in which to express your ideas, or share your knowledge and skills. Your ambitions are stimulated, even though a lot of the benefit will be connected with past contacts and achievements. A jealous love nature, intense passionate emotions, and a love of sensation, luxury and pleasures will be the flavour of the period. The ensuing few weeks are ideal for promoting cordial relationships, and socializing with older family members, superiors and authority figures. Favorable Dates : 18, 25, 27 Favorable Colors : Blue & Yellow

SAGITTARIUS ( 22 November -21 December )

PISCES ( 19 February – 20 March )

You are certainly more serious these days and you might find that you benefit from more attention to practical matters as well as reorganization of important structures in your life. Many of you are feeling strong urges to break free from your routine and to express yourselves in a freer manner. Conditions and responsibilities that you have previously tolerated or even enjoyed are now seen as overwhelming and restrictive. It would also be wise to slow down and find some balance if you are feeling drained, instead of meeting every single demand made of you. Favorable Dates: 20, 22, 29 Favorable Colors : Red & Green

This period brings attention from others, some of which involves adoration, rewarding friendships, and job opportunities. It’s a time when paying close attention to others’ needs, wants, schedules, and plans rather than your own is most rewarding. You might find that joining forces with others is necessary for accomplishing your goals. Your charm is natural and easy. A partner or love interest may take special notice again, and singles could meet someone new. Romantic charm runs exceptionally high this period. You are especially intuitive and in high demand in this period. Favorable Dates : 19, 21, 27 FavorableColors : Blue & Grey

ART

PUTU WIRANTAWAN Back in 2003, when he was bored with the formal elements of figurative art in his paintings, Wirantawan began to create pencil drawings on paper. He produces highly distinctive, painstakingly composed abstract drawings that cross a boundary between drawing and painting. In his drawings Wirantawan re-imagined the ordinary and invented a new artistic scenario. In order to transform the ordinary into art, he extracts its formal essence and uses this essence to perform a suspense-filled drama on paper.

How did you get into painting? When I was a kid I drew random things anywhere I could, like the walls or even the ground because at that time I had very limited drawing facilities. The objects I drew most frequently are the things I saw on comics and Wayang puppetry. When I got to elementary school, I was interested in drawing on paper and cardboard with natural scenery themes, as well as Wayang characters. In junior high school, I sketched on paper books, and learned to paint by myself. Besides that, I also learned to carve with the guidance of my father. Then, it was suggested I go to art high School in Batubulan where I received further guidance from the art teachers there. At that time, I took a major in modern art, but on the sidelines, I studied traditional painting (silungan style/ flora fauna). After finishing high school, I attempted to continue to ISI Jogja. I faced a lot of obstacles upon trying to enter. I failed twice. To wait for the next term, I stayed and worked in the Sukawati village then I was finally able to get into ISI Jogja on my 3rd attempt. From then on, I started a serious journey in painting. What do you paint? Since 2002 until now, I intensively use pencil and paper to draw. I took natural elements as the subjects, such as water, light, fire, soil, air, and natural forms such as: boxes, triangles, liquid,

fine substances, solid, hard, and rough elements. Also, I draw something that is arranged in an orderly fashion, something that is spontaneous, and my representation of the form of subconsciousness. All of them are fused together to form a cosmic imaginary world. What do you want to convey through the cosmic nature theme in your drawing? Cosmic Energy generates forces that conceal inside the mind which can arise when I am conscious or unconscious while I am in the middle of processing my artwork. Natural energy such as light, fire, wind, soil, air and natural forms such as liquid or solids substances, something that is measurable or planned, and something that is spontaneous, all are intertwined with my imaginary world. They are capable in fostering energy of awareness, happiness into nature, mind and soul, giving positive meanings and energies in this life. What makes a painting stand out for you? That is highly relative and depends on the observer. However, in my personal opinion, a painting can stand out as long as it has an ability to touch the mind of anyone observing it. Also, it needs to able to give an enlightenment, peace, and happiness of mind and soul.

Aiming for healing, the massage was so much more detailed and intense, with firm yet gentle hand movements applied thoughtfully at different acupressure points of

INGREDIENTS For “Tui Na”, there are four choices of coconut-base oils including Sandalwood, Frangipani, Lavender and Jasmine.
