Dira Sings Candra Darusman's Hits Song, Satu Cinta

Dira (Demajors)

JAKARTA - Singer Dira marked Indonesian Music Day by releasing a song called Satu Cinta. This song is a remake of the work of the legendary Indonesian musician, Candra Darusman.

Satu Cinta is a song that was first sung by Ruth Sahanaya in 1992 and arranged by James F. Sundah. Dira also performed this song with a soft vocal color and assisted by a new arrangement by Ricky Lionardi.

“With high technical capital, DIRA uses its vocals according to the needs of the song and the demands of Ricky's orchestration. The result of their collaboration is 5 stars on a scale of 1-5”, said Candra Darusman.

Candra Darusman also felt that Ricky Lionardi's arrangement added a sweet impression to the song Satu Cinta. Dira Sugandi also revealed that Candra Darusman's songs are eternal with time.

"Mas Candra's works are very honest and pure, the chords and melodies are pleasant to hear, the lyrics are very strong, timeless," said Dira.

“When I do take vocals in the studio, I feel a huge energy vibrating in my heart. As if I became an instrument to convey a beautiful message to the universe. Several times I felt tight in my chest and I didn't even feel the tears dripping down," he explained.

Satu Cinta is included in the album Seconds of Time #2 - The Journey of Candra Darusman's Cipta Karya which is a continuation of Detik Time in 2018. This album is scheduled to be released in May.

The song Satu Cinta from Dira can be listened to digitally starting today, Friday, April 1.
