JAKARTA - After the Judi album and its live session were successfully uploaded, Radikalideologi (RDLG) restarted its marathon through a brand-new single song titled Anak Metro. The song is packed with groovy beats and distorted guitar frequencies.
Metro Son is a nickname for people who live in big cities. As the opening track for the Positivist album. In this song, Armando (vocals) tells of the situation he felt when he was far from his place in Jakarta, as seen in the first verse; "What feels only iron and steel".
In writing this song, Armando described a magnetic element and an attachment that required him to grow up in the city of a thousand dreams, Jakarta.
Triggered by the stigma of 'money is in Jakarta' and also the perception of many people about Jakarta as central, delivering sentences in the song Anak Metro are increasingly interesting in their correlation with the reality of the Capital City today.
"Throwing up ambition, half delusional" in the second stanza is the most powerful blow as a definite and real description of what he is talking about.
After returning from his hometown, Manado, Armando poured his writing into the composition of songs together with Irsyad (guitar), Gethza (drums), and Kevin (bass). It is undeniable that the depiction of the differences in one's character when in the hometown and the capital city becomes one unit in this song.
In 2016, Anak Metro was introduced through the stages that RDLG tried. It was recorded several times, but the available draft was deemed inadequate.
In mid-2019, RDLG agreed on the album discourse to be worked on immediately.
The recording process is quite sophisticated and nimble, carried out in several precise places.
Starting with a guide, then Haryo Widi's manual drumming at Kandang Studio, and concocting a mix of bass, vocals, and guitar at Studio Soundpole with Wisnu Ikhsantama Wicaksana.
