JAKARTA - Dewa 19 band will be 30 years old next year. Ahead of the celebration, they hired singer Yura Yunita to give a new touch to the song Kangen.
The original version of this song is very attached to the ears of music fans. However, this time Ahmad Dhani tried to bring a new nuance with Yura Yunita. Besides Kangen, Yura Yunita also performed the song Risalah Hati.
"In my opinion, Yura is really cool singing the song Kangen and Risalah Hati, especially accompanied by the orchestra led by me and Guntur Pardjono Putra," said Ahmad Dhani in a written statement received by VOI.
Ahmad Dhani thought that Yura Yunita was able to bring the songs Kangen and Risalah Hati in her own style.
"I really believe that Yura's version of Kangen can beat the song Kangen that the late Chrisye and Sophia Latjuba sang in the 2000s," said Ahmad Dhani, focusing on Dewa 19's hits from their first album.
Apart from that, Ahmad Dhani also feels that Yura Yunita is a female singer who is adept at creating her own songs.
Yura Yunita who got this opportunity was happy because she really liked the two songs and was contacted directly by Ahmad Dhani. "I really idolized and grew up with the musical genius of Dewa19 since I was in elementary school."
This collaboration process was carried out for one month - such a fast time but Yura learned a lot. “This collaboration, produced by Mas Dhani and Dewa 19, is like a dream comes true. Never expected and very proud for sure!”
Yura Yunita's version of the song Kangen and Heart Treatise composed by Ahmad Dhani can be heard starting Friday, July 23
