Pentingnya Feeling Bagi Seorang Gitaris

finz

  Sebelumnya maaf neh judul blog sama artikel kurang nyambung tapi aku rasa itu bukan masalah. terus terang saya masih gitaris pemula yang yang sekedar ingin berbagi aza. buat para senior jika ada yang kliru dibenerin yah. thankz :)

Bagi seorang gitaris ketajaman feeling merupakan sesuatu yang sangat dibutuhkan. bahkan ada yang bilang "Gitaris sejati mencari chord dan melody dengan feeling selain itu abal-abal". tuh berarti gitaris sejati pasti telah menguasai seluruh teknik2 gitar dan tidak malas untuk sering latihan dan belajar.

Kebergunaan feeling terutama agar seorang gitaris mampu menebak nada dari suatu lagu meskipun belum pernah di hafalnya sama sekali. ketajaman feeling tersebut ada yang tercipta secara natural sejak lahir ataupun berasal dari pengalaman dan latihan. dan di bawah ini ada beberapa hal untuk meningkatkan feeling bermusik yaitu :

1. Memperbanyak perbendaharaan lagu dan menghafal nada dari dari tiap lagu.
2. Usahakan mencari kunci gitar suatu lagu tanpa melihat chord. terutama untuk lagu yang baru dikenal.
3. fokus

Feeling lebih menjurus ke alam bawah sadar, jadi jika makin banyak perbendaharaan nada maka feeling itupun akan muncul dengan sendirinya karena nada-nada yang pernah terekam di otak akan muncul disaat mendengarkan nada.

moga manfaat. ;)

You know there’s some advice when walking here “Don’t walk alone especially at night” the meaning is there are many of liar animals and danger but I don’t think about ghost. Honestly I walked alone here caused my group are separated maybe because I didn’t know yet about cikasur so I could enjoy my walking and sometimes stopped to look around.

Mount Arjuno this Story Teaches me to be Mountaineer

Mt. Arjuno & Mt. Welirang

With height 3.339 meters this mount arjuno has many histories. Including the kingdom of majapahit which is this mount was become place for veneration. The ancients site and historic scattered around this mount.

There are four routes that can able to summit this mount arjuno and the strips are Lawang, Tretes, Purwosari and Batu.

And I tried to summit attack by pass tretes strip. That time about 08:00 PM in the dark road and only little of flashlight I was walking to pos 1 with a few my friends and the name of pos 1st is kopkopan. And to arrive in kokopan need about 2 hours by walking but not like what I did yesterday I got more than two hours because I’m still new be probably and I need to learn more. I drunk and took a rest for a while then continue the journey to next pos of summit attack. And second pos is Pondokan standard time of walking only two hours but I’m not, I more than 2 hours.

Walking to Pondokan

Tired, weight stuff, lack of experience and limited of water maybe they are reasons why I walked slowly than another but they are not reasons to give up and stop in middle way despite I fell asleep on road and woke up when the sun was rising at 05:45 AM probably. That’s not the way to stop me to keep walking until reach to top of mt.arjuno. 

Then four hours later I arrive in second pos pondokan about at 07:00 AM. I could breakfast there and fixed my body to summit attack I spent more than 3 hours then go on summit.

Less than 30 minutes I arrived in lembah kijang. I didn’t see any antelope but mysterious birds over there because of heavy foggy probably.

Lembah Kijang

In lembah kijang you could find water for supplying of your next walking and can you see? I still need long trip to summit attack and frankly I was so tired but my spirit covered that. 

Looking for the correct road

Surely after 1 night of my journey I was still in the middle of mount arjuno and still far away. I didn’t think I can reach the top shortly but I believe I can do it even with pleasure.  

Near at Pasar dieng

The way near at Pasar dieng I found the mysterious plants and trees around that I couldn’t see it in public place. Despite they didn’t speak but I could feel them and I felt that they were seeing me. Their life, plants and animals over there were inspired me and though me about life. They are really worth for me.

Working Hard and Keep Spirit

After a few hours I got tracking road, it means I closed the top of my summit attack. I realized it’s just necessary to work hard, what I learned to get the top. And sometimes need to break and see something.

Sit down and enjoy it

About a few hundred meters near the top I felt rather satisfied over there and I could enjoy some scenery but some voice whispered inside that it was not the end. I meant I still have to walk. And after a few hours of my journey I could almost see the top but that day was going to dark so the sunset that I would to enjoy in the top of arjuno was failed. But never mind I could still enjoy it despite almost the top. 

With temperature about 5-10 degree celcius almost the top I had night over there and prepared for tomorrow to see the sunrise from top of arjuno. The things that I will never forget In the middle night I saw the sparkling stars from mount arjuno.

The dawn has come and I started to go on summit attack and finally I could enjoy thing that I never felt before and that’s sunrise from top of mt.arjuno.

The Top Of Mount Arjuno

But from here I am sure you had little inspired of my climbing and the way to be mountaineer for you. And if you want to get detail you must try it by yourself like I did yesterday.

I tell you when you try it out your climbing will be the worth experience in your life when you climb this mountain even another mountain. You just need make your move.

The Conquest of Mount Panderman

                August 17 is the freedom day of Indonesia, in the same day I was struggling to conquest the mount Panderman. Mount Panderman is one of batu city icons. This mountain is visible from every corner of batu city. To climb Mount panderman, there are two routes. The first route is the most common route via toyomerto village, Pesanggarahan. From Pesanggarahan you will pass Latar Ombo, where usually climbers can supply water or camp and the Watu Gede where there are numerous huge rocks and the second route is very rare known and there are no facilities such as parking area and water supply as not designed for climbing base and this rote is a shortcut to summit and this rote is called as Curah Banteng route, a challenging route that few track is 90 deg awry and can only be reached by climbing method.

Enjoying the air and scenery

                In this year I never climbed the mount before and panderman is my first mount where I was climbing for this year. Maybe I can’t tell you about my stuffs which I’d prepared for climbing but I can give you some stories that six of my friends and I had experienced when we explored this mount. 

                Start from the old man who we met in the first way we entered. He looked terrible with his knife for tapping rubber trees and his dog around him. When we were walking beside him suddenly he talked to us “You will go peak with 7 persons? You are an odd so you better be couple in group”. We’re afraid of his advice and you know that’s impossible if one of us left or look for one member to join our group. However we decided to take any risk together no matter what the risk we have to keep moving on. Instinct for choosing the true road we always used it despite we got tired on the middle way and finally we got the first place for taking a rest and the name is Latar Ombo.

Gathering in the relax condition

                It was going to night and we might not continue journey to the top in the dark n weak condition because it would be so risk for hiking. So we have to prepare all of our stuffs such as Tent, Woods for bonfire, Foods and cleared up and you know towards the evening I took a walk around for checking condition. I didn’t realize that I walked on and on till got far from our camp in that time I found huge rocks.

Sitting on the top of huge rock

                I was looking for kali twig while checking place and I tell you that the scenery was amazing the voice of nature and the fresh air condition make me felt in paradise. Before the darkness around the way I had to come back to the camps. When the night we already made some bonfire.

Making some fire

                For one night there are so many accidents such as scary winds that blow up our tent and it made us felt cold even so cold in our skull. In the midnight many of us had gotten cramps and so sick what we felt in our legs and sometimes made us crying. All just made part of us couldn’t sleep despite our body so tired. At 2:54 AM we decided to carry on our journey because if we keep silent it can be killed by the cold air in Latar ombo. So we walked by using spotlight in the darkness of the road. Sometime a few of us getting tired and said give up but another reminds us to keep moving on for conguesting this mountain and get the peak. At 5:37 finally we could see the sunrise from the top of panderman and see the cities, mountains even all look so small. 

Photo of our memory

                Almost a half day we just stayed away in this place and made crazy things while enjoying beautiful scenery. And you know this is the final of our destination. And we could sing so many songs over there. The top of panderman.
