Contemplative Instrumental Collaboration Hendra James And Mahir Blues In In Your Heart

JAKARTA - Students and teachers, with a friendship range of 30 years, present an instrumental song with the nuances of goalspel, blues, rock, ballad and pop melancholic entitled In Your Heart.

Hendra James and Mahir Blues are old friends from elementary and junior high school. However, they were separated in high school because of their respective school choices. And when he graduated from high school, Hendra chose to move to Perth, Australia with his family.

Distance is not an obstacle for them to continue their friendship and make it happen through works. From the era of correspondence, international direct connection, emails to their video calls continue to communicate.

At its peak, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit planet Earth, they realized a work that represented the friendship in the song In Your Heart.

This song is an instrumental version of Hendra's original composition entitled Di Hatimu which was released in June 2021.

Recorded in Hendra's study room at Perth and at the Mahir & The ALLIGATORS studio in Jakarta, this collaboration is proof that the pandemic has not suppressed friendship and creativity.

This song tells the story of the large number of humans who are accustomed to the insane bustle of the world and without feeling lost care for the people who love us.

"We underestimate their love and dedication. While we are aware of this shift in heart, this song divides feelings of a broken heart and is determined again in taking the time to silence and enjoy their presence," Mahir Blues said in an official statement.

The song In Your Heart can already be enjoyed on various digital music platforms such as Spotify, iTunes, Joox, Deezer, YouTube, etc.
