Review Of Adhitia Sofyan's Transition Observation Album, Sejenak Melambat Di Hingar-bingar Perubahan

JAKARTA - Music carries out its function as a medium to reflect and get to know yourself, slowing down time. It can be felt when you hear Adhitia Sofyan's latest album, which launched November 6, Transitional Observation.

In the midst of a fast and noisy world, Adhitia invites listeners to contemplate, celebrate various feelings in a unified harmonious harmonious dress. Overall, this album offers a familiar feel of previous works, but with the right new touches, without being impressed by forcing it out too far under the pretext of exploration.

Hide used to be the opening track for this album which was able to represent the message to be conveyed on this album. No need to keep running along with the current, pursuing happiness whose standards are starting to narrow. Stop first so it is necessary to find our own happiness.

The lyric approach offered on this album has its own uniqueness. Instead of embedding many metaphors, he told more straightforward stories. Even so, the dramatic writing of the body is still presented in more melancholic numbers such as on the Destinations and Closing tracks.

Even in a warm song composed with nova bossa rhythm, Far in the Far Eyes in the Heart, there is an interesting idea that is conveyed, becoming an antithesis about popular expressions. With melodiousness, Adhitia sings "It doesn't have to be. It's a ridiculous sentence. It's not willing if you're with others."

Like summarizing observations in life with various problems, this album brings many stories and points of view about love, human relationships and retrospective lyrics that are not only syahudu, but also make sense.

For those who expect to hear an experimental album, maybe Transition Observation is not the answer they are looking for. But the album is not just a matter of change, but a musician's way of showing the best side of himself at any given time. And this is the best thing Adhitia Sofyan has worked on sincerely.
