Meanwhile, Abeng as the Co-Founder of Never Too Lavish and also the designer of this project explained that the results of this collaboration are in accordance with the identity of Club 80's.

"Why did we finally invite a band, because all this time I always create design characters but never make band merchandise. The design is in accordance with the character of those bands," said Abeng.

In addition to Club 80's, Never Too Lavish also collaborated with St.Loco and The Brandals. Together with St.Loco, this collaboration resulted in long sleeve t-shirt merchandise.

"At the beginning of the collaboration invitation, I agreed, because I followed Abeng's career with Never Too Lavish," said Gilbert Joshua, St.Locco's bassist.

"I personally followed Abeng's career, until finally there was NTL. When there was a collaboration offer, I said yes, because of the culture and gravity of Saint Loco, the offer came so I accepted," added Gilbert.
