ABSTRACT
The phenomenon of trance that occurs when watching music performances, especially traditional music in Indonesia, is common and is often associated with the supernatural, beliefs, and other mystical aspects.
However, scientific research has provided an explanation for this phenomenon.
Entrainment, a condition in which the body of a living being is synchronized with the musicAos emitting source .
, is the scientific explanation for the phenomenon.
This research focuses on how music in nightspots .
can make listeners reach the entrainment phase.
The entrainment phase can be achieved if the beat of the music is stable when perceived by the listener.
The researcher hypothesized that music transition techniques are very influential to achieve the entrainment phase.
In addition, the individual and collective behavior of participants can influence other discotheque This research uses a qualitative method with a grounded theory approach.
Data were collected through field observations with a number of participants in two trials.
The first test .

was conducted under the opposite The results showed that the participants were able to achieve the third phase of entrainment and affect other visitors collectively, which was not the case in the pre-test.
This shows that entrainment can be achieved with effective music transition techniques from a disc jockey, and an individualAos entrainment state can influence other discotheque patrons both individually and collectively.
The successfully achieved entrainment phenomenon is also able to explain the phenomenon of trance influenced by music.

Discotheque INTRODUCTION In Indonesia, the concept of entrainment has not been widely discussed.
Thus, explanations of music-influenced AutranceAy events such as in some traditional music performances are still associated with things that smell clichy, abstract, occult, and mystical.
In this article, the author tries to investigate and test entrainment theory with the research subjects of discotheque Discotheque visitors gradually and slowly enter the entrainment phase.
The authorAos initial assumption is that the use of The discourse on entrainment theory in the context of music .
has only been discussed in the world since at least the early 2000s.
Previously, the concept had been discussed in the context of physics, meteorology and biology.
Theoretically, entrainment is used to explain and study the rhythmic synchronization between an oscillator .

Therefore, the author assumes that the phenomenon of entrainment in the discotheque space can only occur if the music as .

when the music is in a stable condition.
Stable means that the tempo, beat, and phrase are maintained from one song to another without being Participants in this study were informed that they were in the process of However, no further notice was Only the direction to keep dancing to the music, especially the beat.
Based on this, the author only conducted the study twice to compare the use of transition techniques in influencing the achievement of the entrainment phenomenon.
This is because, based on ClaytonAos theory, entrainment can only be achieved if the music is synchronized with the listener.
The condition for synchronization is the process of perceiving music and physiological responses from participants constantly .
ot The purpose of the transition technique is to allow the listener to perceive the music constantly without pausing.
Neuroscience studies prove that the motor system in the human brain is implicated in auditive and visual perception (Chen, et al, 2.
However, it is important to note that the music as a whole .
ot just the beat and puls.
captures the listenerAos attention and feelings (Kornysheva, et al.
Most importantly, the interaction between the music and the perceiving individual must be stable, so that the rhythmicity can be synchronized with the listenerAos motor control system (Thaut, et al, 1.
Gutierrez-BlascoAos research proves that the steady pulse of metrical music, as well as the unsteady pulse of ametrical music transition techniques by a disc jockey will accelerate this entrainment process.
The entrainment framework can generally be described as music as a rhythmic input, synchronized with the music in the body .
of the listener, and sending suggestions and stimuli that will later be integrated in the motor control system in the human brain (Philips Silver, et al, 2.
That is what makes the stream of unconsciousness .

move the human body without realizing or planning.
This condition is referred to as late-stage entrainment, which is often found in the case of traditional Indonesian music performances.
In this paper, the author refers to this situation as Aumusic tranceAy.
Music is present as a stimulus, while other factors such as room conditions, temperature, beliefs, and so on from an individual will be supporting factors for the achievement of the entrainment Clayton.
Sager, and Will .
argue that the most influential part of music to create entrainment is the pulse rate that is synchronized with the pulse rate in the human body as a biorhythm.
Research conducted by GutierrezBlasco .
involving 70 respondents, proved that entrainment can also occur in music without a beat .
However, entrainment that can occur without a steady pulse can only be aimed at people who are often associated with music.
It is related to the empirical and aesthetic experience of the viewer.
It proves that external and internal influences when a person perceives music, will contribute to the achievement of the entrainment phenomenon.
This is due to the musicianAos ability to extract auditive information, supported by the individualAos a priori experience (Koelsch, et al, 1.
for this study, the active participants were the dancers.
To see the overall behavior of discotheque visitors, the author calls Rizal.
Afriyanto.
Daryana : Analysis of the Effect of DJ Transition Techniques on Discotheque Visitor Behavior: A Case Study of Entrainment at Panic Paradise Club will still be able to make the listener achieve the entrainment phenomenon.
The two most important factors are the tempo of the music and the pulse.
Music with a slower tempo will be slower to produce a reaction than music with a faster tempo.
Music with a steady pulse is relatively quicker to get a response and reaction than the opposite condition as in ametrical music.
However, it should be underlined that in the study Gutierrez-Blasco involved musicians, music students, and self-taught musicians.
This cannot be done with nightlife patrons who have heterogeneous musical experiences.
This is why the process of enjoying music by discotheque-goers should be a continuous The way to ensure that the experience of perceiving music does not stop, even though there are many songs being played or mixed, is to use transition techniques.
Transition technique refers to a disc jockeyAos ability to move from one song to another song well and smoothly.
This ability makes the process of perceiving music run well and stably.
According to the author, this condition can enable the synchronization The explanation above shows the connection between the transition techniques used by disc jockeys and the entrainment concept studied in discos.
The author divides entrainment into several phases by following the phases or stages of the depth of human sleep from Sigmund FreudAos theory (Binswanger.
Wittmann, 2.
This is because there are similarities between the sleep phases in the context of human consciousness and the concept of entrainment.
There are four phases in sleep before entering the dream phase or rapid eye movement (REM).
The pre-REM state is where an individual gradually loses consciousness until they fall asleep.
This condition was adapted by the author into the entrainment phase.
general, according to FreudAos dream theory, these phases are Alpha.
Theta.
Spindle, and Delta.
The alpha condition refers to the conscious state of humans with a relaxed Theta state refers to the initial state when an individual enters the unconscious Spindle condition is when an individual is still conscious but his body is following orders from the subconscious.
Delta state is a phase of complete The conditions above when translated into the entrainment phase include the following (Rizal.
Wastap, and Saleh, 2.
A Basic Synchronisation: When the individual begins to move to the beat and rhythm of the music consciously.
In this state the dancer is still planning the movements A Advanced Synchronisation:
The dancer moves to the rhythm and beat freely without planning the movement and only follows the AocommandAo of his/ her body consciously.
This condition shows that the music as rhythmic input has begun to synchronise with the dancerAos body.
Early Entrainment: this condition is characterised by free, unplanned movements and motor output from the dancerAos body following the rhythmic input without being conscious.
In this condition the dancer is still conscious, but her body movements are already quite difficult to control.
This condition is already in the entrainment category.
Extreme Entrainment: In this condition the dancer has also lost consciousness and only the subconscious follows the rhythmic input.
This means that the Pantun Jurnal Ilmiah Seni Budaya Vol.

rhythmic input has been integrated with the individualAos motor control system, so that it can be observed through their motor input.
This phase is where musical trance occurs, which is often seen in the case of traditional music performances.
Of the three stages above, the first type of entrainment is personal entrainment.
Meanwhile, the other two types are interpersonal entrainment.
It can be formulated that personal entrainment is the process of synchronizing music as rhythmic input with music in the body .
in the body until carryover occurs.
In this case, the music in the human body follows the music coming from outside the body.
This causes the motor sensors to move following this synchronization.
Meanwhile, the other two types of entrainment are the process of synchronizing movement .
between individuals to other individuals (MSE) or one group to another group (CSE).
Motor coordination between individuals is something that is very possible between For example, when two people hold hands and both have a plan to swing the holding hands.
Then, the hand swings will be integrated and synchronized.
Therefore, the hand swings will occur in the same beat and not against each other.
The point is because one person follows the rhythm of another personAos movements.
This is the basic concept of entrainment.
The entrainment conditions seen from discotheque visitors are evenly divided between phase three and phase four.
Several other discotheque visitors reached the fourth phase with the encouragement of other external factors such as alcohol and so on.
However, active participants in this research only received stimuli and suggestions from music and the atmosphere of the room.
This is to make the research

The selection of participants in this category is intended so that participants have the ability to extract auditive information supported by a priori experience so that they can reach the entrainment phase.
The experience in question was aimed at ensuring that participants in this study had a stronger emotional connection to music, compared to ordinary people.

The stages of using this research model are taking data sources from two sources and two methods at once (Gilbert, 2.
In this research, the source of quantitative data was obtained from calculating the participantsAo time to reach the entrainment Apart from that, quantitative data sources are also obtained by calculating the middle tempo in the transition region, to ensure the DJ uses the most appropriate tempo in the music transition.
Meanwhile, qualitative data sources were obtained from phase to phase analysis of entrainment, as well as analysis of stages from individual entrainment, to synchronization with large The technique used for data collection is observation techniques.
The author will make detailed observations on each participant, to see the synchronization process that can be seen from motor movements and then measure the achievement time.
Meanwhile, the author used interview techniques to collect preresearch data.
The analysis process was carried out after the data was collected through two studies which were then referred to as research 1 and research Research 1 was where participants perceived music without transition Meanwhile, research 2 was when participants perceived music from a DJ using transition techniques.
Analysis is also carried out on observations from individual entrainment to collective social musical emotions are the key to how brain responses mechanistically have a direct effect on affective brain circuits (Koelsch.
Observation results are carried out by measuring the duration or time an individual achieves entrainment from phase to phase.
As a result, the data will be analyzed to reach logical conclusions.
The method used in this research is a qualitative method with a grounded theory approach.
The qualitative method was chosen so that researchers can get to know the subject well, and can feel what the subject feels, and then describe the research results (Basrowi in Fadli, 2.
Apart from that, this research also involves researchers in the context and atmosphere experienced by the participants at the time of the research.
The aim of choosing this method is to be able to describe the context experienced according to what happens in the study field (Creswell, 2.
Meanwhile, grounded theory is a method of analysis with systematic procedures aimed at developing theory (Ornam, et all, 2.
In this research, researchers tried to understand the behavior of discotheque visitors by observing and Researchers observed a unique phenomenon when someone entered a transcendental phase caused by music.
From this phenomenon, the researcher collected a number of literature and interviews with several disc jockeys, one of whom was DJ Rookie, until finally concluding a hypothesis that the transition technique used by disc jockeys was able to make listeners achieve the entrainment Apart from that, the author also borrowed quantitative methods to calculate the tempo of each song presented by the disc jockey.
This design is very appropriate for the research described in this article, because the theoretical testing described by Martin Clayton will DISCUSSION Entrainment Case Study and its Relation to Transition Techniques Research conducted by neuroscientist Patel .

being able to foster critical consciousness in a human being.
There are also many other examples of works that affect not only the way of thinking, but also the mode of consciousness of a human being.
This foundation that allows entrainment to occur in an individual is due to musical factors.
The influence of the transition technique is no less profound.
The interaction of music with biological rhythms in the human body is influenced by the synchronisation of Human biological rhythms come from heart rate, blood circulation, brain waves, and others.
In the biological view, the various biological rhythms are already synchronised in the human body.
Thus, an individual will feel that his or her heartbeat is in a steady beat with the pulse in his or her veins (Merker.

In conclusion, most research on entrainment is focussed on the idea of temporal prodicity.
That means, stability and periodic rhythmic cycles are the main keywords in entrainment.

process becomes a beat-based rhythmic That is, the process from rhythmic input to motor output is a beat induction process.
Patel has conducted tests on an older bird named Snowball and as a result.
SnowballAos head nodding follows the induction of beats that are regularly played into his ears.
Meanwhile.
Clayton has conducted the experiment on a sea lion.
The result was a synchronisation between the listenerAos motor skills and the beat of the music.
This synchronisation is called the entrainment phenomenon.
The most extreme level of entrainment is losing consciousness, and moving under the influence of the music.
This is a transcendental state that occurs due to music and is often found in a number of traditional arts in Indonesia (Irianto, 2.
This condition is different from the process of AotranceAo or Possession Trance Disorder (PTD) which belongs to the category of dissociative disorders and mental disorders (Pietkiewicz.

When it comes to PTD, there are other factors such as genetics, environment, culture, stress, and traumatic events.
Another cause is psychological disorders due to excessive emotionality or in medical terms called hysteria.
PTD conditions are also caused by the belief of the sufferer in the existence of spirits, as well as other As for entrainment cases, the synchronisation is purely caused by music.

Daryana : Analysis of the Effect of DJ Transition Techniques on Discotheque Visitor Behavior: A Case Study of Entrainment at Panic Paradise Club From the explanation above, it can be seen how the periodic cycle and musical entrainment are very closely related.
While the transition technique in this context is the way a disc jockey moves from one song to another perfectly.
To do this, there are several musical elements that will be seen and calculated in detail, one of which is the beat.
The beatmatching process is only one of the main elements in the transition technique used by disc jockeys.
However, according to the author, this is what makes the entrainment process possible.
The participants in this study did not stop following the music because of the disc jockeyAos successful transition technique.
It can be concluded that the relationship between entrainment and transition techniques is tempo.
A glance can be seen in the following graph:
Disc Jockey and someone who plays songs via cellphone or laptop.
Participants Perceiving Music from Disc Jockeys Without Transition Techniques The first research condition was designed with the researcher observing three participants, all of whom were dancers.
All three were asked to deeply perceive the music while a disc jockey .
nitialised as DJ A) was performing.
However, the first disc jockey was a disc jockey who lacked proficiency in performing transition The author considers that this disc jockey is less skilled in making musical transitions between one song to another.
Music transitions require beatmatching techniques, which is harmonising beats from two or more songs .
harmonise beats from multiple tracks, calculations are required on the beats of the bars and phrases of the tracks (Morse.
For example, when the disc jockey transitions from Avril LavigneAos AoGirlfriendAo to Maroon 5Aos AuPayphoneAy feat.
Wiz Khalifa.
The first song has a BPM of 75 and the second song has a BPM of 115.
The disc jockeyAos decision was to speed up the song that had a BPM of 75 to 115 BPM.
In fact, the best way to transition the two songs is as in the following diagram:
The chart above is the process of In this process, the rhythmic input, namely the music that comes out of the speakers and the audio sound, will be synchronized with the music from within the human body so that it comes out as movement .

There are several things that influence this process to run well, including tempo and If one music to another stops, the synchronization will also stop.
The transition technique is aimed at making the transition from song to song smooth and precise, so that the process of perceiving music does not stop.
This transition technique is also the difference between a Illustration of the process of making a DJ transition.

The following is the tempo calculation for two songs (Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne, and Payphone by Maroon 5 feat.

based on the median formula:
When calculating the median with the same formula as before, the calculation done by DJ Rookie is very precise.

Me=105 .
Me = [.
Me = [.

Me = 90 (Roundin.
Me = Median n = Total number .
In EDM music, the tempo of the song will be rounded in multiples of 5.
Therefore, the result of the calculation at 102.
75 will be rounded to 105.
The choice made by DJ Rookie to start the song at 105 proved to make him able to transition between songs smoothly, by involving elements for other transitions effectively.
DJ Rookie also performed a number of transitions using fade, cut, single phrase beatmatch, bass swap transition, and filter fade transition with ease, because he had synchronised the beats from the start.
This made the participants less distracted when perceiving music and responding to it with motor output.
From the researcherAos observation, the participants were able to gradually enter phase by phase of entrainment well and From the above calculation, there are two options that disc jockeys can choose.
Firstly, the BPM of the two selected songs (Girlfriend and Payphon.
is changed to 90 BPM, and finally using the trasition region in connecting the two songs to 90 BPM.
Of the two options, most disc jockeys use the first method, which is where the song sampled in this study is the song Girlfriend which has a BPM of 75 pulled slowly at BPM 90, then the Payphone song from 115 BPM is lowered to 90 BPM.

All four songs are set at 105 BPM, so that beatmatching can be done smoothly, and does not really change the perception of the song.
Comparison of Research Results The transition technique is the ability to produce a smooth transition from one song to another, so that the movement between songs becomes imperceptible.
It is as if the listener is still listening to the same song, and still enjoying it in the same vibe and These two things produce the same groove and beat, so that the rhythmic output felt by the body remains stable (Butler, 2.
Two songs that have different tempos, such as listening to two songs from one online music player playlist, will give the impression of syncopation.
Syncopation is a rhythm played at the Rizal.

this context, two songs played without a transition technique will result in Moderate syncopation will make a listenerAos desire to respond to it into motor output stronger.
However, syncopation that feels strong will make the listener tend to stop and stop the motor response (Witek, et al, 2.
The transition technique in this article is intended to make the process of aesthetic perception of a piece of music .
This is what allows participants to reach phase to phase of entrainment.
In the first study, participants perceived music without transition techniques.
a result, there was syncopation between the first music and the second music.
Whereas in the second study, participants perceived the music presented by the DJ using transition techniques.
The part in the middle between the two songs became a transition region that became a bridge to connect the whole.
This is what makes the process of perceiving music non-stop.
Thus, participants slowly entered each phase of The results of the two studies can be seen in the following table.
Phase While the second phase was only reached at the 70th minute.
Participants failed to enter the third phase which is the initial entrainment phase.
That means, participants failed to enter the entrainment phase, only being in the pre-entrainment This was in contrast to the second study, where participants on average entered the first phase at the 25th minute or 15 minutes earlier than the first study.
About 20 minutes later, or around the 45th minute, the participants successfully entered the second phase of entrainment.

To compare the results of both quantitatively, researchers try to look at it with a value comparison to find the ratio between the two (Hardi.

Comparison is the right choice to see and compare values or ratios.
Ratio search is the most appropriate way, according to the author, to compare one quantity with another, and find the ratio of comparison.
In the context of this study, it is known that with the transition technique, participants reached the first phase of entrainment at 40 minutes.
Whereas with the transition technique, the participant will reach the phase in 25 minutes.

It is a situation where an individual experiences entrainment, affecting other individuals.
Then, the synchronization becomes a collective situation, which affects one other collective In general, these conditions become three stages of the impact of entrainment from one person to all discotheque visitors as follows (Philips-Silver, et al, 2.

Thus, it can be concluded that the stages from SE to MSE, ending to CSE can only occur in the second study.
That means.
From the above formula, it can be seen that the effectiveness of using transitions in producing entrainment phenomena in In the first phase, the use of transition techniques made the process of participants achieving entrainment phenomenon more effective by 55%.

From this conclusion, it can be concluded that the influence of transitional music has a big impact on the entrainment phenomenon received by discotheque visitors as a whole.
the influence of DJ transition techniques is able to make this process possible.
Additionally, the fact that participantsAo movements were more influenced by live music performances, rather than recordings (Swarbrick et al, 2.
In the second study, on average, the SE process was achieved at 90 minutes.
The SE process is the initial entrainment stage, or the third of the 4 entrainment phases.
The author observed that the participantsAo movements, gestures, and movements gradually synchronized with other individuals occurred at the 140th minute.
That means there is a difference of about 50 minutes from the SE process to the MSE The MSE process puts one synchronized collective on the dance floor.
This collective set is then integrated with other collective This is called the CSE process.
Visibly, it can be seen that one other group is connected and then synchronized with the group resulting from MSE with participants.
Then the two collective groups become synchronized, which can be seen from the body movements that are in a periodic rhythmic cycle, and very accurately match the beat and pulse of the music presented by DJ.
The above explanation can be seen through the following table.

CONCLUSION
The results of this research prove that the transition technique used by a DJ is able to make discotheque visitors achieve entrainment, compared to DJs without this technique.
Successful entrainment can also explain scientifically what happens to the human body when they lose control of their own body.
This is due to the synchronization of biorhythms in their bodies with rhythmic input from outside.
This research also proves that entrainment will occur with various such as intimacy, pleasure and the process of absorption in music.
Transitions from one song to another with the right technique will provide these three factors, so that the audienceAos motor and nervous systems can be well synchronized with the beat and rhythm of the music.
DJs who are skilled at using transition techniques will be very able to manipulate the participantsAo hearing, so that they will not realize that the music has slowly changed from one song to another, even up to dozens of Coupled with the transition region section, then in at least 3 consecutive songs .
