Punk, Anti Struggle Maturity
Indeed, identical to the culture of punk anti-establishment. But the real anti-establishment like what they stand for?
Lately, many raised issues commercialization of punk. According to some punk kid, it has deviated from the ideology of punk. Although, still, for the punk mainstream, commercialization and industrialization is not too disturbing their ideology.
According to Wok the Rock, which is the anti-establishment has many dimensions. Able in the social, political, material, to the music. "Music does not always have a good technical skills, or structured musical arrangements and long," said Wok example. "The music that anyone can play, anyone can make it." Incidentally, the early entry of punk music in Yogyakarta, not from ideology.
Admittedly, all the punk anti kemapanannya must have its own. Including the mainstream. "They screw with industrialization." They just wanted to voice and fight for what is heard by those outside the community. This is clearly different from the punk fundamentalists who reject even the exposure and publicity, especially from the media.
For the 'genre of' punk who did not join the wave of industrialization, most of them did not make their music - or their punk movement - as the main source of income. "The majority had a band, there are some who write," Wok said. But not as work.
For everyday, they also work for a living. Ideally it does not work for large companies - in terms of commercialism - they are sucking the wealth of the people. "But for the picking when it's hard, right?" Wok said.
With the rejection of the commercialism, the new punk movement that led to positive, the culture of Do It Yourself (DIY). In addition to being creative and fulfill their needs by making your own, this indirectly build a love of the local product.
As a company that built Wok the Rock via the Internet. This record company is a DIY spirit that utilize information technology. With the system for free legal download, good song to cover design, anyone can make a CD of his own - whether recipient or perpetrator.
Being a punk is not just taking the skin only. By imitating dressed without understanding their struggle, they can not be called punk. "As is often seen on the edges of the road," he added. Often it can not distinguish which one truly understand the punk, and which street children are simply imitating the costume alone. "What sometimes just taken his nggembel culture, they do not necessarily melakoni punk," explained Wok.
The anti-establishment has many dimensions. Almost impossible to reject all the dimensions of this establishment without being fundamentalist. In the end, the most important thing is the choice and the reasons behind their choices are.
