JAKARTA - Atta Halilintar with Aurelie Hermansyah, Krisdayanti, Lenggogeni Faruk Halilintar, and through the national-themed song "This is Indonesia". In addition, Atta also invited DJ BEAUZ to collaborate. This national-themed song was released to celebrate Indonesian Independence Day.
"This pandemic situation has made Indonesia experiencing difficulties, therefore we present this work to raise the spirit for us to rise and grow together. So, #THISISINDONESIA, Indonesia can," said Atta, during a virtual press conference, Sunday, August 15.
Atta considered the involvement of this DJ from China carefully because he felt that this song needed a touch of international music that could be accepted in the global music industry without leaving Indonesian characteristics.
This Chinese DJ duo are musicians of Indonesian descent who have tasted the international stage several times, and have produced hits such as "Count the Hours", "Treasure U", "Feel the Light", and "Crazy".
BEAUZ then collaborated with Spinnin Records to release the song Feel the Light and recorded them as the first record from Spinnin' Asia. This collaboration also positions them as the godfather of psypop.
They are brothers Bernie and Johan who became the first electronic music DJ duo to be involved in "Youth with You". Their performance received a standing ovation from the audience and fans.
Beauz feels proud to be part of the This Is Indonesia project. “After all, we are still Indonesians, so we want to give the best for Indonesia. Moreover, we were also impressed when we heard the song and read the lyrics. The lyrics are very beautiful and poetic," said Beauz.
Atta collaborated with Rizal Mantovani to make a video clip using computer-generated imagery (CGI) technology and showcase the natural beauty and characteristics of Indonesia, such as clothes, arts, culture, and Indonesian icons. This video clip raises a futuristic concept without losing the majestic and elegant side of Indonesia.
"Hopefully this song can be sung in the future at sporting competitions to raise the nationalism of young people. Hopefully, young people can be moved to have a high spirit of nationalism so that Indonesia can progress," said Atta Halilintar.
