Selected
rentak/bit tak tertekan
in music:
upbeat is an unaccented beat [especially the last beat of a measure]
unaccented in musical [kesenian, e.g. unaccented note = not tak tertekan] context is translated as tak tertekan
beat can be translated as either bit or rentak
ref: PRPM [you need to look the words up separately]
p.s. actually your retak keras or rentak awal is totally opposite to what the term really means.
