JAKARTA - After waiting for a year, Isyana Sarasvati finally released the album "EKLEKTIKO" in full on Thursday, May 21, tomorrow.
As is known, the journey of the fifth full album has begun since May 2025, through the release of "Hari Ini" as the opening single, which was brought in collaboration with Hindia.
"EKLEKTIKO" is packaged as a multi-chapter project that records the dynamics of personal journeys as well as Isyana's musical exploration without genre barriers.
Lunora, MAMIU, Cecilia, and ABADHI chapters, each bring a different character of sound, visualization, and emotional atmosphere.
In the first part, Lunora, Isyana celebrates diversity by embracing collaborations with Hindia, VIDI, Afgan, and Kamga.
Shifting to the MAMIU chapter, listeners will be presented with Isyana's imaginative side that speaks about inner sincerity.
Meanwhile, Cecilia is present with a more intimate, feminine, and contemplative feel about self-maturity.
As a conclusion, the ABADHI chapter is positioned as the peak of self-acceptance and the balance point of all phases of his life.
Isyana chose the track titled "BURN" which is in the ABADHI chapter as the focus track of this album. Through the song, he tried to combine elements of pop music, electronics, to metal distortion, which he then formulated into a subgenre called trance metal or dance metal.
The character of this song that beats and is full of rhythmic beats was deliberately created to trigger the physical enthusiasm of its listeners.
"'BURN' is one of the tracks on the album that most represents the meaning of 'EKLEKTIKO'. The combination of pop, electronic, and metal gives birth to a new color, namely trance metal (dance metal), which is a new exploration for me," said Isyana when holding a hearing session at Sudirman, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, May 20.
"As a kinestetic person, I created this song to accompany my friends to do activities, especially when exercising. Hopefully 'BURN' can be a trigger for enthusiasm to live the day," he continued.
The artistic dimension of the song "BURN" does not only stop at audio affairs. Isyana also expands the reach of his work through a large-scale video clip presentation.
The visualization is worked on grandly by involving 60 background dancers who move in the direction of structured choreography, creating a complete performative experience for the audience.
Overall, this album summarizes a complex emotional narrative, which is deliberately presented to be absorbed together with music connoisseurs and loyal fans, ISYANATION.
More than just a collection of songs, the project is also accompanied by more than 30 visual video releases uploaded gradually through its official YouTube channel to complement the visual storytelling of each chapter.
Through harmony that hits conventional boundaries, Isyana wants to invite the audience to celebrate every process of life.
"'EKLEKTIKO' is my reflection on human life. I believe we are here in this world to learn to feel diversity, experience the good and bad of life, find meaning in every journey, and celebrate it all. This album is my form of gratitude for every process," concluded Isyana.
In addition, "EKLEKTIKO" produced under the Redrose Records banner, contains a total of 18 tracks, including a collaboration with Marty Friedman on the song "my Mystery".
All the material in this album is guaranteed to be accessible and listened to simultaneously on various digital music streaming services starting tomorrow.
