THE QUEEN OF SHOLAWAT MUSIC BECOMING A KINETIC GODDESS: (OUR FAILURE OF) ANALYZING AI KHODIJAH'S ROMADHON TAJALLA
The dance is composed of two sequences.
The first sequence runs from 1:25 to 1:40 and can best be described as breakdance meets Jackie Chan. In 1999 the choreography of Rewind by Cylob posed a question. Ai Khodijah gives the answer.
The second sequence 2:50 to 3:20 starts as a fragment that seems to mirror the first, the two halves seem to come together in your mind; but just as they are about to make contact, the second half vibrates, accelerates, shatters and reassembles into something else entirely. Ai Khodijah makes a radical break with the semantics of dance and explodes into pure kinetic energy.
With the first sequence you worry that kids might hurt themselves trying to emulate this, with the second sequence you know nobody else than Ai Khodijah would even dream of trying. You wonder: Is this bit reversed, is this bit sped up, is this bit upside down, but what you see is really what is happening. It's a struggle to develop a vocabulary to describe it, the best I can do is: bees in a centrifuge. Ai Khodijah is a dangerous woman who could cut off your head just with her hands.
I'm torn. I want to show this to Blanca Li, but I don't want to give her depression. After this, what else can dance even do anymore.
Classic:
