Come on my little brothers and sisters

We have to go to school

We have to go to school

And we have to go to school

Come on my brothers and sisters

We have to go to school

We have to go to school

And we have to go to school

Your older brother has finished their school

Finished their school

They will come back

You all are my little brothers and sisters

Who will following

You who aren't finished yet

Come on, following their way

With all facilities and skills that I have

Although simple, I want to share to everyone

Especially Papuan generation to step forward together

for compete in music fields for mutual progress

from Papua to be compete with other people outside Papua

The beginning, I playing music in the village

I followed my uncle who played music at church that time

I also joined

to play music in the Church

I was about 12 years old

at 12 years old I already played music

On that time I played stand bass

which is only 2 string made by wood

Sometimes, He immititae guitar voice

with his mouth

always when he was at home

Then Bonny's brother followed us

and on that time he played bass

After dinner, When I got angry

because of they practiced guitar at bedroom

then they moved to kitchen and practiced there

Everyday, they always practice to play guitar

I said to them

Do you want to school or what?

and, Bonny and Agus answered

this is also the learning stage and the same goal

because school and playing music have the same goals

However I didn't know what they meant

We used to sing in the kitchen

till the father got angry

and on that time I proud to be an artist

He (Bonny) asking alot

and finally following my way

Are you using EZ Drum

for the drum instrument?

No, I am not

That's time sent the money from Wamena

for my school college cost in Jayapura

Before I used that money

I asked to father

How if this money

I used to buy keyboard?

Because I feel that

through the music

Creating songs and making album

In the future people can live with playing music as well

not just study at college

Father, please send me money for my practice study

I want to buy keyboard

I bought this keyboard by my father's money

Now, this doesn't working anymore

This is my first Keyboard

This is the second from Umaeli group

and this is bought by me

Total the keyboard which I bought are 4 unit

After I bought the keyboard

then I start to make the midi

To make midi in the keyboard is really complicated

because there is no internet to look for tutorial video

and the guide books in English language as well

and foreigners language

don't have guide in Indonesian languange

So that, the study process very complicated

I ask my friend who study English literature in Jayapura

to send English dictionary

then I saved the translate

then I translated it

from English language to Indonesian language

After that I starting to make music

such as drum, bass, etc

like Pikalu music ethnic

I created by imagination

I entered to keyboard

Since that time I started creating midi music

Midi of Papuan mountains

about Papuan artists

especially mountain child/boy

Brother Bonny is the first trigger

last time, there is some older brother and sister

who made midi in the keyboard

I also get knowledge about music

from Brother Bonny

from that midi results

already produced some album

Like album from Lanijaya

from Yahukimo

and some album which are spreading

and people have heard it everywhere

that's midi style is different when we heard it

its mean genre music which created by our self

like what brother Bonny teaches

especially for the songs which I created

I created it fit with situation

There was an certain event/moment

I make it as song directly

So, almost of the songs that I created

occur because of certain situation and condition

At that time, the security searched for the Wamena people

we can't go out from home that's time

then Father (Bonny) created song

Do you want to hear ?

After we go through long process

I succeed created some album

There is tape album

Its Maniko group's album till vol.5

there is also Umaeli album

and then I learn how to make vidoclip

and I made some album

videoclip

the first of the Omangiar groups

the second from the album Allah ninom group

the third Wakawok group

the fourth Voice Country

fifth is etnic songs from Wamena

after I managed to make this all

starting from learning music

arrangements and making recording albums

I want the knowledge and abilities that I have

even though with simple facilities

I want to share with anyone

including my siblings

Who are currently trained by me

starting from making music

use the keyboard

use Fl studio

besides teaching music

I also taught about how to make films

starting from the shooting process

editing to complete

my hope for them

have more ability than me

in the future

when I heard from friends

there is someone from wamena

he makes midi and plays melodies on the keyboard

not on the guitar but on the keyboard

finally I was curious

and I find out by myself

it turns out bro Bonny and some friends

they live in Perumnas fourth

from that moment on I was determined to meet him

finally I can met and saw by myself

He took out the keyborad and played music

he became an inspiration for all of us

like me and some friends

we all learn from brother Bonny

he is open and likes to share knowledge

to anyone who wants to know

His (Bonny) trademark is a humble person

because of that many young people come

to learn something from him

when they met kak Bonny

they also feel the same way

there is a soul of sharing from Brother Bonny

and when they met kak Bonny

they don't feel like strangers

because brother Bonny is an open person

free to exchange ideas

for example there is something musical instrument

for example, the keyboard, mic, Bonny always prepare

without asking us to make Brother Bonny

must share his knowledge with us

we only visit to exchange ideas

extraordinary thing that he

always removing the musical instruments he has

he took it out and put it in the story

we are free to try and play the instrument

so when they go home they always tell the stories

that brother Bonny is amazing

people with hearts like that

we can't get anywhere else

so they are very happy

When you go home there is always a good impression

someday I want to learn to make midi music

brother Bonny invited me to come to his house

and taught me how to make midi

of the millions of thousands of music in the world

how to create music according to your own character

that's what Bonny has

and that's what I want to know

finally I learned from brother Bonny

starting from pairs of metronomes

Drum, bass, guitar, and so on

the important thing is that music is born from us

not on the keyboard

but from our inspiration

that's what Bonny taught me

so I can develop

can creating music

all learning start from Brother Bonny

At that time I was very disappointed

but now I admit

what Bonny said was true

I am happy and he is known to many people

Right now, I am very proud

Because Bonny's sister can follow in my way

I'm proud of brother Bonny

he's a true artist

for the central mountains of Papua

The government should open its eyes

to see us, Papuan artists

Especially wamena

because there is many artists

Like Bonny's sister and other siblings

this season again

this is actually the potential for this area

but the government has never opened its eyes

if we being diligent, study seriously

we can live from it

if its already like that

Automatically cleanse the poverty rate

But this doesn't reflect the government

and this is what makes us (artists) disappointed

Don't let my brothers become victims

like me

which did not receive attention from the government

especially for those of us who have

this ability is neglected

because I have passed by myself

what I have ever made from the beginning

My first thought just to play games

It turns out that everything is very useful

and what I do is

as a form of my work

and this is also part of a business opportunity

one of the examples

when we make video album clips

I can train other siblings

I pay to music players and dancers

This is also work that

so far has not been seen by government

I hope that in the future the regional government

Especially the jayawijaya regional government

to pay attention with seriously

younger siblings and friends who have talent

in the field of music and other arts

in this district so that it can be noticed

with special autonomy funds

so that a training studio can be made

so that the brothers are displaced

who has the ability

but lacks facilities and places

we can summarize and gather somewhere

to make music and other learning activities

through training like this

if you make movies, songs

through whatever they produce

can lift the name of the area

and can give the job for the siblings

who has the desire to move forward
