Karimata's album Lima is a fusion of traditional Indonesian music and jazz that creates a unique and captivating sound. The use of traditional instruments such as the kendang and gamelan combined with modern jazz elements showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend different music genres.
The album opens with the track "Lima" which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its upbeat rhythm and catchy melody. "Budaya" features the gamelan prominently and creates a calming and meditative atmosphere. "Pulau Dewata" is a standout track with its intricate percussion work and lively energy.
One of the strengths of Lima is the band's ability to showcase their individual talents while still creating a cohesive sound. The saxophone solos in "Budaya" and "Pulau Dewata" are particularly impressive and add a layer of depth to the already complex music.
