Electronic Rock Duo, Mothern Releases Beforelight's Premier Album
JAKARTA - The electronic rock duo from Jakarta, Mothern, released their first album, Beforelight, today, Friday, February 19.
After releasing several singles, the unit consisting of Pandu Priyanto and Rastafarian showed their exploration of the rock and electronic genres in this album. Beforelight presents a story about what is happening around them.
Their inspiration in making Beforelight was not far from names that were already popular in their realm, such as The Chemical Brothers, Nine Inch Nails, Underworld, and Daft Punk.
Created for one year, they go through a huge process from expectations to expressed disappointment. These eight songs have a relationship with each other.
Through a listening session that was attended virtually by VOI on Thursday, February 18, Pandu said that one of the songs, Tunnel likened him to walking in a tunnel.
“Tunnel is one of the songs that is really personal to me. Sometimes I denial and tell myself that I'm okay. In fact, it's okay not to be okay, "said Rasta.
Mothern also invited a number of fellow musicians, including Matter Mos, Mantra Vutura, Rayhan Noor, Denisa, and Eupho.
Mothern's Beforelight album can be a new reference for those of you who want to listen to electro rock fusion that is rarely done by Indonesian musicians. Beforelight can be listened to digitally starting today.
