SetList: Music is in a good place right now. Even with the vast array of genres and sub-genres artists continue to explore the possibilities of new sonic landscapes, and with the multitude of musicians that are dedicated to their craft there is no shortage of diverse and original music produced. With such a rich pool of musical talents it was only right W_Music began a live segment featuring some of the finest musicians performing the music that make them so unique. Setlist is a video performance program by Whiteboard Journal that is inspired by shows such as the Peel Sessions where bands exhibit their material in a controlled environment, giving a recording that is as special as the place and time the music was in concert.

The Jakarta-based indie band Hightime Rebellion was formed by Rendy (vocals/piano/guitar), Pulung (bass), Jason (guitar), and Reza(drums), in 2007, and later came the addition of Miyane (vocals) and Adji (guitar). With the mixture of Brit pop, funk, folk, and rock, they're paving their way on the diversity of Indonesia's music scene and gaining public attention as well. This year, they had the honour to rock the stages of huge music events in Indonesia such as Nylon Music Festival, Trax FM Terusik Traxkustik, Java Rockin'Land and Beatfest -- such great opportunities came as a fruitage to their early experiences of performing at indie gigs in Jakarta and its neighbour, Bandung. Aside performing in big events, this year they're also working on a debut album under FFWD Records, national pioneer of indie recording label from Bandung. (Whiteboard Journal 2011)
