Hello world!
Thank you for finding your way here and for taking your time to read these words.
My name is Purnama, and I am a singer-songwriter, ceremonialist, and cultural bridge, living in my hometown of Bedulu, Bali.
My path of music and ceremony began in 2018. I have witnessed countless times the power of music, and seen the way songs carry us home to our bodies, to our breath, to the earth beneath our feet, and how melody can heal what words alone cannot reach.
Yet, in the spiritual and medicine music scene of Bali - the Island of the Gods, where offerings are made every day and everything begins with prayer - there are few medicine songs sung in the languages of the land.
Most songs in ceremonial spaces are in English, Spanish, or Sanskrit, while the voices of Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Bali remain quiet, almost forgotten. My mission here is to change that 🌺
The Intention of this Album
It has become my mission to create accessible, simple, and uplifting medicine songs in Balinese and Indonesian - songs that people from around the world can learn, remember, and share as a prayer for these lands & their lives.
These are songs that honor Bali, the guardians of this island, and our beautiful Mother Earth.
At the moment, there is an immense gap to be witnessed between foreigners & locals in Bali. Many arrive seeking healing, beauty, and transformation - yet the land and its culture are often taken for granted, consumed more than truly met. When we forget the language of a place, its prayers, and its traditions, we slowly lose relationship with it.
Music can help us remember & build bridges. When we learn the local language through song and sing prayers that belong to the land beneath our feet, something shifts.
We move from unconscious consumption to conscious presence. From taking inspiration to offering respect.
Knowing the power of music to unite & elevate, I know that these songs can create a real impact.
Suara Alam is an invitation to return and to listen more deeply. And now, I ask for your support to help bring this vision to life.

Album Overview
1. Memek Kauk(Mother is Calling)
Inspired by traditional Balinese chants, this song calls people to how mother earth is crying and we need to remember our roots.
Sung in Balinese and to be recorded with a soul-stirring choir and Balinese flutes.
2. Pulau Dewata (Island of Gods)
An easy to learn and singalong song in Bahasa Indonesia that gives thanks to the island and the elements.
I’ve often sung it in sweat lodges and singing circles, and it has inspired others already to learn it.
3. Bidadari
A chant to the Bidadari (celestial beings in Indonesian mysticism), the Sun, and Mother Earth.
The lyrics in Balinese, but the song with harmonium, tabla, and violin give oriental feelings to it.
4. Prayer for Water
This song is very dear to me. A guitar song written in a blend of Spanish, English, Balinese and Sanskrit lyrics, it gives thanks to the sacred waters. I have sung it many times at Ecstatic Dance closings, and received feedback of how touching it has been to receive.
5. Sanghyang Agni (Sacred Fire)
Inspired by Native American tipi songs, this is an energetic and powerful fire chant with traditional Native American instruments.
Mostly in Indonesian, but also calling the deities of the fire in Mexica (Aztec) and Wixarika (Huichol) language.
6. Kembali Lagi (Return Again)
A song inspired by the jungle and the medicines of the Amazon with rhythmic drums.
Written in Spanish & Indonesian, it is a call to return and remember our roots and where we come from.
7. Anak Semesta (Child of the Universe)
One of the last songs of the album, a reminder of our common source in Indonesian & English.
8. Samudra (Ocean)
My soothing love song for the Ocean, source of life, in Bahasa Indonesia.
9. Shanti (Peace)
In this song the chant of Balinese priests are highlighted with a traditional closing prayer.
Bonus Song:
Ilumina
If the funding goal is exceeded, it will support the recording of our song for the Moon & the Sun.
Matur SuksemA
From the bottom of my heart — thank you for believing in this vision and helping bring Balinese and Indonesian medicine songs into the world as a prayer for the Earth and for the next generations. ♥️🌺
With love,
Purnama ♡
