Andien greeted Indonesian music lovers again by releasing his latest work titled Manusia Favorit.
In this project, Andien collaborated with the producer and songwriter with cool hands, Lafa Pratomo, to provide a fresher and atmospheric musical dimension.
The "Favorite Man" is part of Andien's 9th album series which is being prepared thoroughly.
Through this song, Andien tries to explore the personal side of the presence of meaningful figures in life, which he translates into a dreamy folk genre.
The first collaboration with Lafa Pratomo was also recognized by Andien as giving a new color that was very organic in his discography.
Andien said that the artistic vision of this song is to create a quiet space for listeners in the midst of the hustle and bustle of everyday life. He wants this song to function as a soothing heart that can bring the memories of listeners to simple but deep moments with loved ones.
"When I made this song, I imagined a song that felt shady, comfortable, and 'nyess' when heard, like being poured with fresh water that makes the heart feel cool," said Andien in her statement, Monday, March 9.
The creative process behind the scenes also took place quite quickly. Andien feels that she has the same frequency as Lafa Pratomo, so that her music execution feels very flowing. Lafa is considered capable of capturing raw emotions and packaging them into a reflective arrangement.
For the singer with the full name Andini Aisyah Haryadi, "Manusia Favorit" is no longer just a representation of her personal self, but a space for the public to interpret their favorite figures.
"Once the song 'Manusia Favorit' reaches the audience, this song belongs to them. 'Manusia Favorit' can be very personal, everyone must have their own favorite person," added Andien.
Not only from the audio side, Andien also pays special attention to the visualization of this song. He collaborated with Niamo Studio and director Gilbert March to work on the music video with a static framing approach. This technique was deliberately chosen to emphasize the intimate impression, where the camera remains still while Andien's movement in the empty space becomes the main focus.
This step is in line with Andien's consistency in the Indonesian music industry since her debut in 2000 through the album "Bisikan Hati". As a musician who has won various awards, Andien continues to prove her relevance by adapting to the latest music trends without losing her characteristics.
