JAKARTA - Indie musician and songwriter from Taiwan Mandark in late June released their first solo album titled BADA88 (readed Badass) reflecting its journey of finding unique charm and finding infinite love and freedom along the way.

BADA88 is produced by Fortune Coinie Records, a production team that has won several Goldenbinda Awards (Mandarian Grammy Awards) and was released exclusively in Indonesia with the Indonesian label Sun Eater.

Quoted from Antara, Tuesday, this album includes various genres such as indie pop, synth-pop, R&B, and alternatives. Some of the songs on the album use English lyrics, also in Japanese and Korean.

There are eight songs on the album BADA88 that show Mandark's vision to expand his presence in Asia, including Sushi, 8ODY, and DALIDA. There is hope that Mandark's music can make listeners rediscover themselves.

Mandark was previously known as the main vocalist and keyboardist of the indie band Sweet John and I Mean Us and has listed his name on the mainstream Chinese music scene over the past few years.

He is also active in various international indie arenas such as SXSW, Busan Rock Festival, and Audiotree Live.
