Makobar (Komunitas Pengamen Manahan dan Kota Barat) pada awalnya didirikan oleh Santosa bersama sejumlah pengamen sebagai wadah komunikasi dan mempererat persaudaraan para pengamen jalanan di kawasan Manahan dan Kota Barat, Surakarta, Jawa Tengah. Melalui perjuangan Santosa dan anggota Makobar lainnya selama 21 tahun ini, komunitas Makobar telah semakin berkembang, hingga kemudian dikenal sebagai komunitas yang menghidupkan kegiatan seni dan budaya di Surakarta.

00:00♪
00:08Mr. Sun is very smart when it comes to music.
00:12He's very good at finding the right link.
00:15Because if we want to make amends,
00:17we have to find the right place.
00:19And he's a great bridge for us,
00:21the amenders, to be able to
00:25spread our desire to make amends.
00:29♪
00:33In the past, to get recognition or reference,
00:39we had to go through a long struggle.
00:43We are grateful that
00:45Makobar as a place where friends make amends,
00:48has given us a lot of blessings.
00:51So, it's a short journey,
00:56a long process.
00:58♪
01:28Makobar provides facilities to make amends
01:32for the roadside amenders.
01:34So, it doesn't have to be at the intersection,
01:36but Makobar is like a place
01:40that has a link.
01:42It has a link to bridge,
01:45for the amenders to make amends,
01:47to entertain the food lovers.
01:52Usually in cafes, restaurants.
01:55♪
01:59Mr. Sunny is smart in music.
02:03He's smart to find a link.
02:07Because we want to make amends,
02:09we have to find the right place.
02:11And he's a great bridge for us,
02:13the amenders, to be able to
02:17spread our desire to make amends.
02:21♪
02:52Makaryo together.
02:54All this time, we have been active,
02:57and coincidentally, we have been registered
03:00with the tourism agency.
03:02Starting from 2019 until 2026,
03:06we have a letter of clarification,
03:09the construction of the agency.
03:11We also have a notary.
03:13So, officially, we have been active
03:16in Solo together for 11 years.
03:19Together for social activities.
03:22This is one of them,
03:24we are with the community of cat lovers,
03:27every first and third Saturday.
03:30♪
03:39The impact for me is very fruitful.
03:42In the past, I only studied biology.
03:45Studying biology is a classic.
03:48So, the classic to play with a band
03:52can be said to be impossible.
03:55Because you have to read.
03:58You have to read the classics.
04:00But after I joined,
04:02I can learn how to improvise.
04:05How about the music?
04:07I know the rhythms,
04:09through Makobar.
04:12And after that, I can be accepted
04:15in church services,
04:17I play at weddings.
04:19That's the impact of me joining Makobar.
04:22And I can also teach,
04:24not just playing.
04:26I can teach,
04:28I can pass my knowledge
04:30to children and adults.
04:34♪
04:59♪
05:03♪
05:27♪
05:34In the past,
05:36when we were still young,
05:38we gathered potential friends.
05:41We held street music festivals several times.
05:44And also the Gadon Festival.
05:47To gather those who have achievements,
05:50to join us.
05:52And we built a bridge for them to perform
05:54in hotels and restaurants in Solo.
05:57♪
06:04Since we've been together for a long time,
06:07people have understood that
06:09those who joined Makobar,
06:11those who have potential,
06:13those who can handle it,
06:15those whose music quality
06:17can be enjoyed by the people of Solo.
06:20Also with the tourism agency,
06:22almost every year,
06:24we are given big events in the city hall,
06:27and in various events they do with the agency.
06:30So, the bad sentiment of the fans
06:34is very little different from the past,
06:37because there were a lot of fans.
06:39Because Makobar itself,
06:41the fans are in certain places,
06:43so the coordination is easier.
06:46♪
06:56In the past,
06:58to get recognition or reference
07:01requires a very long struggle.
07:05But if we, like our slogan,
07:08people don't give too much,
07:10push good, will push.
07:12When this existence has been going on for so long,
07:15and it's not less important,
07:16every 5th of December,
07:18we have to celebrate together.
07:20We are grateful that
07:22Makobar as a place to be together,
07:24these fans,
07:26also have a lot of blessings for friends.
07:28So, it's a journey that's not short,
07:32a long process.
07:34Some have changed their profession,
07:36some are even greater,
07:38and we meet again.
07:40This is the media together,
07:42even though they don't play anymore,
07:44but when we have an event, they support each other.
07:47♪
08:17Because there are many who don't know
08:20that there is an organization
08:22that has been around for so many years
08:24that can support friends.
08:27And we can help friends
08:29to get local collectivity,
08:31in their search for a rich income
08:34from singing, from ngamen.
08:36We are serious about that.
08:40My hope for Makobar
08:42is to go further,
08:44to be able to open a forum
08:48to bridge the ngamen,
08:50to be able to ngamen
08:52in a more equitable place.
08:54It can be more inclusive.
08:57In Surakarta,
08:59in Soekarjo,
09:01in Solo, Soekarjo, Sragen,
09:03we actually like to open it.
09:05If anyone wants to join,
09:07please, there will be a KTA
09:09that we already have,
09:11the places to ngamen,
09:15and if you give a KTA,
09:17you can ngamen there.
09:19We have opened that.
09:21We have opened several links,
09:23several places to ngamen.
