David Bayu Standing Alone In The Album In The Soul
JAKARTA - David Bayu dared to step on his own through his solo album Di Dalam Jiwa. This album marked his new career after Naif disbanded after 25 years together.
This project began when the pandemic hit in 2020. Naif's condition at that time made him start working at the same time opening up old writings.
In the past, the priority was not to (a solo project). DVD Boy is like a solo album, but it turns out to be just a fad because it's not a priority," said David Bayu.
Then David Bayu released Deritaku as the first single on September 30.
It is also reflected in the lyrics contained in the album Di Dalam Jiwa. Both from the expression and the nuances it describes dark conditions.
The topics are also diverse, ranging from changes in feelings to feelings of love for nature. Some of those tracks are Human, It's OK For Me Now, Dark, Mana, Heaven in Your Heart and Give Up.
David Bayu's voice was still heard the same when he played with Naif or The Singing Terror. But this time listeners can see his new side through this album.
David Bayu invites some of his old collaborators to work on an album. Vega Antares and Erikson Jayanto are the figures who worked on DVD Boy with him.
From discussing DVD Boy, I informed you, 'Eh, I'm working on a solo album. He immediately replied, 'Don't forget me, Mas!' It fits, it just so happened that Vega's taste fits," he said.
This album also takes inspiration from classic music such asread and Michael Jackson as well as producers of FINNEAS.
What I hope has happened, in the sense that I really enjoyed the process which was quite long. The results are as expected, said David Bayu.
Under the demajors flag, David Bayu's first album - Inside the soul can be listened to physically and digitally starting today, October 8.
