Back To The Utuh, The Changcuters Celebrate The Universe's Karunia At The Age Of 20

JAKARTA - The year 2024 is a very meaningful period for The Changcuters. With all its dynamics, this year is the commemoration of the 20th anniversary for the band from Bandung.

Tria et al want to give a surprise gift, a new single they have the title Karunia Semesta. The single released by Wowma Records is already available on various digital music platforms on October 10.

Their work this time shows the softer and more loving side of the agile and modest rockers. The lyric video Karunia Semesta will air on the same day on the YouTube channel The Changcuters Wowma TV, and is complemented by a related merchandise that will be sold through Sandang Wowma.

Kami mau ada 10 lagu untuk album baru. Sudah ada sembilan lagu yang ke-10 belum ada. Nah, kebenaran saya ada satu lagu yang gabung tapi belum ada liriknya. Gua menampikankan ke anak-anak, dan mereka kata, Lu yang sing ya, jelas Qibil sang guitaris sekaligus pembuat lagu Karaunia Semesta dalam siaran tertulis yang diterima VOI.

The lyrics just flowed when I found out what to make a song about. If you read it, the inspiration will be caught, I just want this song to express my affection for something to look forward to.

This song is an reflection for its personnel who have been busy with time. That's why the feeling contained in it is so personal.

We really felt the song. Understandably, band employees. So rarely come home. We have a feeling of longing, longing for children, wife, parents. "No matter how far we work and leave the city, we will definitely go home," said Alda, Qibil's partner in the guitar division of The Changcuters.

The Changcuters have been running for 20 years and six albums, so actually it's a bit stuck to find out what else the song theme is, that's why we adjust to age. So it fits really well when Qibil takes on the role of vocalist, because he gets a different feel and new challenges. That's what makes it exciting.

Erick the drummer added, "I like the song. It's different from the others, and maybe listeners of this song can see the other side of The Changcuters. There's still a common thread, only with clothes that the Changcuters rarely bring."

The new atmosphere offered through the 'Kununia Semesta' is also the reason why the song was used as a single to mark the existence of The Changcuters for two decades.

In 20 years people know The Changcuters are a rock band. Well, this is a moment where there is more love that we want to give, and Kununia Semesta is the right song," said Dipa the basis. This is also a gift for The Changcuters which I never thought could be up to 20 years with the condition of the personnel still complete and equal.

Now Tria can return to appearance, and Karunia Semesta is the right bridge to the new format of The Changcuters and the 20th Anniversary Tangguh Concert which will be held at the Ancol Convention, Jakarta on December 7, 2024.

"I am very grateful to my friends who heard The Changcuters and sent prayers for me," he said. That's an event that I don't think will happen with The Changcuters. I'm a seller, and this is one of the imaginations I've never prepared!
