Musician Kunto Aji (ANTARA)

JAKARTA - Musician Kunto Aji celebrates Mother's Day which will fall on Sunday, December 22 by releasing a music video for her song "Releasing Mother's Hug" which is part of her third full album "Pertivators of Mind Purification".

The single captures one of the most common moments between mother and child, an adult phase when children have to get out of the house and choose their own path of life.

One of our turning points to grow is when we enter the adult world. And one of the most memorable moments for many is when we start to migrate. More specifically, the most memorable moment when we migrate is when we first leave the house, when we release the mother's arms," said Kunto Aji in his official statement, Saturday, December 21, 2024.

Kunto Aji provides three different perspectives through this song. First, from the point of view of young mothers who project their children's future.

Second, a mother who has to let her child go, and the last point of view is the child who tries to convince his mother that he is mature and ready for greater living consequences and responsibilities.

This single was done by Kunto Aji by involving his two friends, Afif Gifano and Pandji Akbari Kautsar. Kunto Aji musically wants to convey that 'Releasing Mother' is not a completely sad thing, but there is a new hope that awaits you.

Single Releasing Mother'' is also released in a music video format directed by Aco Tenriyageli. The premise of the story in the music video tells the story of a boy who migrates and lives a simple life with a cat.

The twists and turns of life passed, including a romance drama that made him fall. Until finally realized that there was no place to go home that was the most brewed besides the mother's hug.

I believe Aco as a film director can bring emotion to music videos with a narrative concept like this. I freed Aco to interpret this song. Finally, Aco translated it from an interesting point of view. From the point of view of a cat, "said Kunto Aji.

Kunto Aji hopes that this single can at least make us look back at the starting point and step forward, to what extent the journey has been taken and remember where we have to go.

"The important thing is to realize the point where we start all of this. Starting our careers, our passions, starting what we do. Maybe someone is starting to get married, leaving their parents and all kinds of things. So that we can measure where we used to be and where we are now, and every time we go home to our mother we realize it all. Mother as the starting point and the calibration point of life," concluded Kunto Aji.

The music video Releasing Mother's Hug can be watched on the Kunto Aji YouTube channel starting December 21, 2024. This single can also be heard through the digital music streaming platform.
