| Summary: | In its development, dangdut has been evolving in line with the
globalization era, the society preference and the cultural pattern.
Nowadays, dangdut Koplo experiences its fame. Most of current
dangdut performances present dangdut Koplo as its prime
performance. The current performance of dangdut Koplo has many
new elements. Its interesting element is called the senggakan. In each
musical performance showed by the Melayu orchestra, the senggakan
plays major function. The senggakan provides beats and unique
touch that make dangdut Koplo distinct from dangdut in terms of its
musicality.
In bearing the validity of the data, the effective research was
conducted for three months. The research was located in Purawisata,
Yogyakarta. The purpose of appointing the research venue is to
observe the existence of the senggakan on dangdut Koplo using
different culture. The research method used in this research is
ethnography method. The ethnography method was held in order to
obtain deeper comprehension of the problem. The collected data will
be analyzed using several theories, i.e. habitus (examining habitus
from senggakan), participation and presentation (looking at the
interaction of senggakan from Dangdut Koplo), function and use
(gauging the role of senggakan) and identity (emphasizing the
senggakan as musical and cultural identity).
The finding of this research was resumed in this research. The
success of dangdut Koplo is caused due to the existence of habitus
society, i.e. the senggakan and the senggakan habitus owned by
Javanese society. That habitus has the implication to the existing
interaction. The participation on senggakan bears the existence of
Dangdut Koplo. After scrutinizing further, the senggakan is
functioned and equipped by the society as cultural and musical
expression. Moreover, the senggakan also circulates social and
cultural essences for the society. The senggakan becomes accordingly
the musical and cultural identity of the society observing dangdut
Koplo.
