Dangdut (/dɑːŋˈduːt/) is a genre of Indonesian folk music that is partly derived and fused from Hindustani, Arabic and to lesser extent, Malay, Javanese, Sundanese and local folk music.[1][2][3] Dangdut is the most popular musical genre in Indonesia[1] and very popular in other Maritime Southeast Asian countries as well because of its melodious instrumentation and vocals.[4][5] Dangdut features a tabla and gendang beat.[1]
Several popular dangdut singers include Rhoma Irama, Mansyur S., Camelia Malik and now Lesti Kejora as an Indonesian dangdut diva. Their music include strong Indian-music influences as the basis of harmony, theme, and beat. A dangdut musical group typically consists of a lead singer, backed by four to eight musicians. Instruments usually include a tabla, gendang, flute, mandolin, guitars, sitar, drum machines, and synthesizers.[6] Modern dangdut incorporates influences from Middle Eastern pop music, Western rock, house music, hip hop music, disco music, contemporary R&B, and reggae.[1][7]
The popularity of dangdut peaked in the 1970s and 1980s but emerged in the late 1960s.[8] By 2012, it was still largely popular in the western Indonesia, but the genre was becoming less popular in the eastern parts, apart from Maluku.[9] Meanwhile, more regional and faster-paced forms of dangdut (as opposed to slower, Bollywood-influenced dangdut) have risen in popularity.
