Friendship Between OmBags And Danilla Riyadi Resulting In New Song For Second Solo Album

JAKARTA - The bassist and vocalist of the NTRL band, Bagus Dhanar Dhana, who is familiarly called OmBags, has collaborated with Danilla Riyadi on his latest single, Persahabatan.

Persahabatan is the opening song for OmBags' second solo album, which is scheduled to be released in the near future. Interestingly, this song 'deviates' from the image that has been attached to this bald-headed musician.

OmBags is synonymous with alternative rock music. However, in this song, he features ballad music with acoustic (folk) nuances accompanied by Wayanjos' guitar.

Danilla Riyadi herself was chosen, according to OmBags, because this song requires a female vocal character, which is like being involved in a monologue.

“The original idea was, I wanted it to be like a monologue between two people who answered each other in this song. For this monologue, I want a female vocal voice that has character and is unique. And the one who can embody that vocal character in this song is Danilla Riyadi," said OmBags in an official statement received by VOI.

"But I freed Danilla to sing, to express in accordance with the song's story. And it turned out that Danilla's choice was the right one, because she was able to give life to this song," he continued.

The song Persahabatan was written by OmBags in 2011. This song tells about the breakup of a friendship due to differences of opinion and perspective, which in the end only harms both parties who prefer to win ego over the value of friendship itself.
