Lokananta Museum

Eroded by Time: The Fate of Analog?

The digital era has brought many changes, including in the world of music.

From blackplates (vinyl records), cassette tapes, and CDs, music formats have evolved into the digital versions we encounter today in the millennial era.

Lokananta Museum is the first and only state-owned music company in Indonesia, housing a vast collection of legendary music in vinyl and cassette tape formats.

The museum also features a recording studio that remains in use today and continues to preserve analog production by producing music in cassette format.

Located in Surakarta, a city rich in culture and history, Lokananta Museum adds to the list of nostalgic destinations worth visiting when in Solo.
