Indonesian entertainment and popular culture have not only captivated the domestic audience but have also started to make waves internationally. For example, Indonesian films have been showcased in various international film festivals, and Indonesian music has begun to influence the global music scene.
Furthermore, the melancholic, lo-fi pop of Joji (George Miller)—who, despite his Japanese stage name, is a Japanese-Australian artist who found a massive Indonesian following—highlights how porous the regional music market has become. Today, Spotify's "Viral 50 Indonesia" playlist is a chaotic, beautiful mix of local dangdut koplo, American trap, and hyperpop.
