JAKARTA - The moment of increasing age is often a turning point for reflecting on the journey of life. This is felt by musician Reno Fahreza. Exactly at the age of 38, he admitted that he was overwhelmed by feelings of deep sorrow and gratitude.
For Reno, 38 years old is not just a series of numbers. He feels there is a new awareness of time that feels so fast.
"His feelings are mixed, there is gratitude, sadness, and also becoming more aware that time is running fast. But for sure, I am grateful to still be given the opportunity to continue to work and live with the people I love," said Reno to the media, recently.
Entering a more mature adulthood, Reno has a clear vision, both for his personal life and his musical career. He is committed to continuing to transform into a better individual and a more solid colleague in the music industry.
"As a person, I want to be better, more patient, wise, and able to make my family happy. As a band member, I want to be more solid, professional, and be able to give a stronger color to this band," he said.
Reno Fahreza's name is inseparable from Loh Kok Tum Band, a music project that brings together a number of big names in the Indonesian music industry, including Yuke Sampurna, Stevi Item, Eno NTRL, Magi /rif, and Marcello Tahitoe.
Being part of a team filled with senior and experienced musicians certainly presents its own challenges for Reno. However, he sees this journey as a valuable learning process.
"From the simple beginning to now, we have learned a lot and developed, both in terms of music, character, and team cohesion," he added.
As he gets older, Reno feels that his responsibilities in the band are now greater, especially in maintaining the rhythm of work and togetherness among personnel.
"The biggest challenge is usually about consistency and maintaining togetherness. The way to overcome it is through good communication and mutual support," said Reno.
Good news for Indonesian music lovers, Reno revealed that Loh Kok Tum Band is preparing new ammunition. Currently, they are in the stage of working on a number of works that are ready to be released in the near future.
"Yes, we are preparing several new works. Hopefully in the near future we can release it soon and be enjoyed by listeners," he said.
Reno hopes that his band can continue to be consistent and reach bigger stages in the future. However, in the midst of his musical ambitions, he still insists that family is his main priority and source of strength.
"Hopefully always given health and smoothness. For the band, hopefully it will remain solid and successful together. Thank you for all who have supported us," he concluded.
