Dara Puspita Want to Play Your Beach Party


Are you a fan of Indonesia in the 1960s? What about Dick Dale-infused tropical garage-pop? And all-girl groups? Then Dara Puspita is the band for you!*

The obscure, ultra-hard-to-track-down, pop band has been around since, well, the 60s, but their material had been near-impossible to find until Sublime Frequency released Dara Puspita 1966-1968 -- a 26-track-long anthology of psych jams -- earlier this year.

Whether its this summer or the next time you find yourself at Typhoon Lagoon, Dara Puspita is essential beach party listening. Download three highlights below or grab the whole (sold-out) LP by clicking here.
