Does anyone know some good contemporary Indonesian or Malay artists? I'm a (very, very
rank) beginner in Indonesian and love listening to music when I start learning a language.
I've started out with Yuna, a Malay singer who's started to draw some attention in the
U.S. with her English-language releases. Here's one of her Malay-language singles:
Yuna - Terukir Di Bintang
Just because she is pop doesn't mean that's the only kind of music I like - I am open to
anything!

I like Koil. I only know Koil. Wait, and Peterpan/Noah. And Amazing in Bed, but I don't know if they did anything in Indonesian. Oh, and in one of the Music Alliance Pacts was something by Armada, they seem to be okay too.
ETA: Just checked, Amazing in Bed have songs with Indonesian lyrics. I didn't add any links because when I tried I got the GEMA screen telling me I wasn't allowed to see the video. :x
ETA 2: Burgerkill, Blackstone Boredom, Seringai ... probably not so useful :D brb headbangin ~

I don't, I'm a music graduate and I love listening to songs in any language.
I did my final thesis on the importance of ethnomusicology.
