This single is also the second EDM track released by Judika after previously Judika collaborated with Whisnu Santika to remake the song How If I'm Not Well, I'll just become an EDM song.
Judika's collaboration with Eka Gustiwana began when Eka and Weird Genius remixed the song Aku Yang Terakiti. And then continued to talks between Eka, Judika and the label Judika, Dua Anak Deo, to compose an EDM song sung by Judika. Judika has actually been interested in collaborating with Eka Gustiwana for a long time.
"Actually, I've seen Eka as a genius musician, can compose songs that music lovers really like in different ways. After seeing her works, I hope that one day my work can collaborate with her," Judika said regarding her collaboration in a written broadcast, April 25.

Meanwhile, Eka Gustiwana himself admitted that he was a bit nervous when he accepted the invitation to collaborate from Judika. For him, the Batak-blooded soloist is a senior figure whom he respects.
"At first I was nervous about making songs for senior musicians like Abang Judika. I already had a lot of ideas but I crossed out a lot. Now in this song, I just believed and immediately sent it to Abang. Abang's response, gas! ... Yes, really happy!," explained Eka.
Furthermore, Eka Gustiwana said that the song Too Dalam is not Eka's first and last collaboration with Judika, there will be another collaboration in the future. Eka hopes that Indonesian music lovers can see and accept the different Judika characters. In addition, it is hoped that this song will also be used in videos on social media.
"So if you want to insinuate someone, you can only use the first verse, so far, this is the farthest," said Eka Gustiwana.
