When East Javanese traditional art is discussed, the main spotlight often falls on Ludruk<\/i>\u2014a performing art that has long been a cultural pride of the arek-arek<\/i> (young people) community. However, behind the vibrant discussions about Ludruk<\/i>, there is one crucial element that is often overlooked by the media and cultural discourse: Jula Juli<\/i>. Without Jula Juli<\/i>, Ludruk<\/i> would not feel complete.<\/p>\n

Jula Juli<\/i> is not merely a part of the East Javanese kidungan<\/i> (traditional sung poetry); it is a literary form that records the long history of its people. Within each song performed, there are narratives about anxiety, hope, humor, social criticism, and the daily lives of Javanese society, particularly in Surabaya and the broader Arek<\/i> subculture regions.<\/p>\n

Varieties of Jula Juli<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Jula Juli<\/i> and Ludruk<\/i> are always intertwined with traditional art in East Java. As part of a Ludruk<\/i> performance, Jula Juli<\/i> serves as an introduction or accompaniment that breathes life into the show. However, Jula Juli<\/i> does not entirely depend on Ludruk<\/i> as its medium. As an independent art form, Jula Juli<\/i> can be performed outside of Ludruk<\/i> shows.<\/p>\n

To trace the connection between Jula Juli<\/i> and Ludruk<\/i>, let us briefly explore its historical emergence. There are several versions of how Ludruk<\/i> and Jula Juli<\/i> originated. One story states that Ludruk<\/i> was initially created by a farmer named Santik from Ceweng Village, Diwek District, Jombang Regency. In 1907, Santik, along with his two friends, Pono and Amir, performed Jula Juli<\/i> from one hamlet to another while wearing makeup resembling women, which they found amusing. They then sang Jula Juli<\/i> in a humorous style to entertain the public (Ismail, 2023).<\/p>\n

Another story claims that Ludruk<\/i> had already developed as early as 1890, but it was not introduced by Santik. Instead, a street performer named Gangsar from Pandan Village, Jombang, was credited with its emergence. His story closely resembles Santik\u2019s role in pioneering Ludruk<\/i>, which at the time still took the form of Lerok<\/i>. According to the tale, Gangsar and his friends were performing when they encountered a crying baby being held by a man. Upon closer observation, the man had adorned himself like a woman, hoping to deceive his child into thinking they were being cradled by their mother. Inspired by this, Gangsar and his friends began performing with makeup that made them look like women. This story is also considered one of the key reasons behind the emergence of the travesti<\/i> (cross-dressing) tradition in Ludruk<\/i> performances (Soenarno, 2023). The final version suggests that Ludruk<\/i> began to develop in Surabaya.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, these stories focus solely on the origins of Ludruk<\/i>, while the emergence of Jula Juli<\/i> remains largely undocumented. However, the development of Jula Juli<\/i> has always been closely linked to Ludruk<\/i>. Over time, Jula Juli<\/i> started to expand its reach, evolving into an independent art form separate from Ludruk<\/i>. In Jula Juli<\/i>, the sung poetry follows a pattern similar to pantun<\/i> (traditional rhymed verses), delivered with vocal techniques and accompanied by gending<\/i> (traditional Javanese music). The narration is presented in the rough, colloquial ngoko<\/i> dialect of East Javanese speech.<\/p>\n

Regional Variations of Jula Juli<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

As Jula Juli<\/i> evolved, it developed unique regional characteristics across East Java, adapting to the socio-cultural contexts of different communities. These variations include Jula Juli<\/i> styles from Surabaya, Pandalungan, Jombang, and Malang (Setiawan, 2017). While all these variations retain similar musical patterns and accompaniment styles, each version presents a distinct atmosphere and character, particularly in linguistic aspects.<\/p>\n

The diversity of Jula Juli<\/i> has given rise to its own historical narratives in different regions. It reflects the cultural, social, and political conditions of its time. For example, in Jombang, a Jula Juli<\/i> style developed using the slendro Pathet Wolu<\/i> scale. This scale was performed during Bapang Wayang Topeng Jatiduwur<\/i> performances (Annur, 2022). However, there is neither historical evidence nor folklore detailing the origins of Jula Juli<\/i> in the slendro Pathet Wolu<\/i> scale. Nevertheless, Wayang Topeng Jatiduwur<\/i> has existed since the Majapahit era during King Hayam Wuruk\u2019s reign and was later revitalized by Ki Purwo in Jatiduwur Village, Kesamben, Jombang.<\/p>\n

Beyond Jombang, around 2014 in Malang, a new musical style emerged under the name Jula Juli Lantaran Gaya Malang<\/i>. This style was pioneered by Sumantri, who created it in response to the limitations of previous macapat<\/i> song styles (Pamuji, 2017). The distinction lies in its musical characteristics: Jula Juli Lantaran Gaya Malang<\/i> incorporates elements of macapat<\/i> with rhythmic arrangements highlighting Kendang Kalih<\/i> and Gambayak<\/i> drumming techniques (Pamuji, 2017). This marks a unique feature not found in conventional Jula Juli<\/i>compositions.<\/p>\n

Unlike the Malangan or Jombangan styles, Jula Juli Madura<\/i> has a history closely tied to the socio-political dynamics of the Dutch colonial era. This version of Jula Juli<\/i> was born as a product of its time, shaped by the cultural assimilation between Madurese and Javanese communities under Dutch colonial racial policies. The Dutch anthropologist Huub de Jonge documented colonial-era stereotypes about the Madurese people, portraying them as \u201cbackward\u201d and \u201charsh-tempered\u201d\u2014both of which reflect colonial biases. This narrative reinforced the discriminatory perspectives of colonial rule, further stigmatizing the Madurese in the eyes of both the colonizers and surrounding Javanese communities.<\/p>\n

The presence of the Madurese people was often positioned as \u201cthe other.\u201d Their voices remained faintly heard. This historical backdrop of stereotyping led Jula Juli Madura<\/i> to become a unique form of resistance against systematic subjugation by colonial systems and knowledge structures (Setiawan, 2017).<\/p>\n

This defiance is also reflected in k\u00e8jhungan gending Yang-Layang<\/i>, a distinctive kidungan<\/i> (sung poetry) from Madura influenced by Javanese kidungan<\/i> and the adaptive evolution of Jula Juli<\/i>. However, its uniqueness lies in its high-pitched and melancholic cengkok<\/i>(melodic ornaments), symbolizing the Madurese people\u2019s strong sense of dignity, outspokenness, and migratory nature (Mistortoify, 2015). One example of k\u00e8jhungan Yang Layang<\/i> is as follows:<\/p>\n

Through the Jula Juli<\/i> they created, they not only expressed their cultural identity but also demonstrated resistance against the stereotypes that had long been imposed upon them.<\/p>\n

The migration of the Madurese people to the Tapal Kuda<\/i> (Horseshoe) region also gave rise to a unique Jula Juli<\/i> style known as Pandalungan<\/i>. Pandalungan<\/i> refers to Madurese communities born in Java who have assimilated with Javanese culture while living in the Tapal Kuda<\/i> region, which includes Jember, Situbondo, Probolinggo, and Lumajang (Satrio, 2020).<\/p>\n

This migration can be traced back to the 18th century, specifically in 1870, when the Dutch colonial government enacted more agrarian policies that allowed private enterprises to expand their economic activities in East Java. As a result, rubber, sugarcane, and tobacco plantations began to emerge, and low-wage laborers were brought in from Madura to work on them (Akhiyat, 2023). However, this was nothing more than a colonial strategy to perpetuate slavery. The Dutch forcibly employed enslaved laborers on plantations\u2014bringing slaves from Java to work on land in Sumatra and from Madura to work on land in Java. By sourcing enslaved workers from regions separated by the sea, they ensured easier control over them (Setiawan, 2017).<\/p>\n

As a result, cultural assimilation occurred in the inclusive Tapal Kuda<\/i> region, giving birth to distinctive traditions\u2014one of which is Jula Juli Pandalungan\/Pendalungan<\/i>. This particular Jula Juli<\/i> is often performed in Jaran Kencak<\/i> (a traditional horse dance) performances and is incorporated into the Napel\/Sumpingan<\/i> segment. In this segment, a guest sings Jula Juli<\/i> to the host while presenting monetary offerings (saweran<\/i>) to the Remo<\/i> dancer as a gesture of respect to the host (Juwariyah, 2023).<\/p>\n

In her writings, Nura Murti compiled Jula Juli<\/i>\/k\u00e8jhungan<\/i> from the Pandalungan<\/i> tradition in Jember Regency, highlighting the values of cultural assimilation in the Tapal Kuda<\/i> region (Murti, 2017), such as the following example:<\/p>\n

The various types of Jula Juli<\/i> demonstrate that music and culture are not merely forms of entertainment but also serve as tools for expressing identity, worldview, and even dissatisfaction with prevailing social conditions. Like other traditional arts, Jula Juli<\/i> stands as a silent witness to how culture becomes an arena of struggle\u2014where narratives of oppression can be transformed into songs that inspire and unite people from diverse walks of life.<\/p>\n

Jula Juli as a Medium of Social Resistance and Propaganda<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

During the colonial period, Jula Juli<\/i> evolved into a medium for criticizing the Japanese colonial system, infused with elements of satire. For example, in one of the most renowned kidungan<\/i> (traditional sung poetry) pieces by Cak Durasim, sharp criticism was directed at Japanese rule, which had further worsened the conditions of the indigenous people, as cited in Setiawan\u2019s (2021) article:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cA dovecote is a home for doves,<\/p>\n

Following the Japanese only brings suffering.<\/p>\n

Bought klepon<\/i> at the station,<\/p>\n

Following the Japanese means no pension.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The first two lines of the verse are also inscribed on Cak Durasim\u2019s tombstone at Tembok Gede Cemetery in Surabaya, serving as a lasting reminder that local arts and culture\u2014such as Ludruk<\/i> and Jula Juli<\/i>\u2014have functioned as tools of resistance. Jula Juli<\/i> was not merely an art form; it was a means of challenging the status quo of its time.<\/p>\n

Beyond being a vehicle for social criticism, Jula Juli<\/i> was also used as a medium for propaganda. During the Guided Democracy era of the late 1950s, political parties frequently utilized this art form to convey ideological messages from various political groups. This is evident from the fact that many political parties had autonomous cultural organizations within them. Some of these included the Indonesian National Party (PNI) with its National Cultural Institute (Lembaga Kebudayaan Nasional<\/i>\u2014LKN), the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) with its People\u2019s Cultural Institute (Lembaga Kebudayaan Rakyat<\/i>\u2014Lekra), Masyumi with its Islamic Arts and Culture Association (Himpunan Seni Budaya Islam<\/i>\u2014HSBI), and the Catholic Party with its Catholic Indonesian Cultural Institute (Lembaga Kebudayaan Indonesia Katolik<\/i>\u2014LKIK) (Susanto, 2017).<\/p>\n

The presence of multiple political streams and ideologies made culture an arena for ideological battles and influence. Art and literature, as part of culture, were often used as mediums to convey ideological messages, either explicitly or implicitly. This even led to the notion that \u201cwhoever wins has the right to write history\u201d (Susanto, 2017).<\/p>\n

This was no exception for Jula Juli<\/i> and Ludruk<\/i>. The proliferation of Ludruk<\/i> groups in East Java turned the art form into a political battleground, resulting in the emergence of two major factions: Ludruk<\/i> supporting the PKI and Ludruk<\/i> supporting the PNI. When these two factions performed on neighboring stages, it was not uncommon for them to engage in ideological duels through Jula Juli<\/i> performances (Setiawan, 2021).<\/p>\n

That Jula Juli<\/i> verse is one example of how traditional art was utilized by political parties to subtly convey their ideological messages. With its colloquial language and a rhythm familiar to the people of East Java, political propaganda was woven into the lyrics of the kidungan<\/i>(chant). In this way, Jula Juli<\/i> transformed into an effective political communication tool, reaching various segments of society that might not be accustomed to formal political narratives. However, kidungan<\/i> and Ludruk<\/i> performances associated with the PKI began to fade following the events of September 30. That incident marked a period of silence and the disappearance of Ludruk<\/i> from the national stage (Setiawan, 2021).<\/p>\n

At that time, the New Order regime did not only suppress the PKI physically but also sought to dominate culture associated with it. The Pengkhianatan G30S\/PKI<\/i> (The Treachery of G30S\/PKI<\/i>) film, produced by the regime, was widely disseminated, books deemed to contain leftist ideology were banned and removed from circulation, and traditional arts were tamed by the regime to steer literature toward \u201csafe\u201d storytelling (Restu, 2020). One of the affected art forms was Ludruk<\/i>. As a form of folk art closely tied to narratives of the people and resistance, Ludruk<\/i> was considered dangerous. During that era, both Ludruk<\/i> and Jula Juli<\/i>, as part of Ludruk<\/i>, temporarily lost their voices.<\/p>\n

The Revitalization of Jula Juli in the Contemporary Era<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Amid the influence of both Western and Eastern cultures today, this tradition faces the challenge of staying relevant in an era of modernization. The name Cak Kartolo, a legendary Ludruk Suroboyoan<\/i> maestro, is often credited with playing a significant role in revitalizing Jula Juli<\/i>, ensuring its survival and acceptance by modern audiences.<\/p>\n

Cak Kartolo recorded his Ludruk<\/i> performances on cassette tapes, which were then widely distributed across East Java. He became well-known for delivering Jula Juli<\/i> with a comedic style rich in humor. In every recording, he was always accompanied by the karawitan<\/i>(traditional Javanese musical ensemble) group Sawunggaling (Mukaromah, 2018).<\/p>\n

Apart from Sawunggaling with Cak Kartolo, during the same period, Cak Sulabi and his Ludruk<\/i> group Budhi Wijaya also gained recognition for their popular Jula Juli Suroboyoan<\/i>, such as the following Jula Juli<\/i>:<\/p>\n

\u201cMulone jok gampang dulur peno dipecah belah<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

mundhakno sing seneng kaum penjajah<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

sopo sing salah dulur kudu podo ngalah<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

supoyo persatuan kito gak gampang blubrah\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Moreover, Jula Juli<\/i> continues to reinvent itself by addressing more contemporary issues. For example, in the field of education, Jula Juli<\/i> is used to teach moral values, history, and even social skills. One such example is the following kidungan<\/i>:<\/p>\n

\u201cSugeng enjang salam literasi<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Anak-anakku sayang kabeh sing tresnani<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Ayo belajar gawe mbangun negeri<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Iki wawasan tekan sekolah yo dipelajari (Primaniarta, 2022).\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Through Jula Juli<\/i>, this art form not only reintroduces East Javanese cultural identity to the younger generation but also serves as a medium for character building and fostering social awareness. Therefore, tracing the values and knowledge embedded within Jula Juli<\/i> can be seen as a form of cultural archaeology within the subculture of East Java.<\/p>\n
