Don't Want to Be Labeled as a Metal Kid, D'Masiv and Kangen Band Inspire Kevin Harsanto to Create the Song 'Just to Remember You'

Kapanlagi.com - The name Kevin Harsanto may not be known to the general public, but it turns out that this 26-year-old young man has just produced a song titled 'Just to Remember You'. But behind all of that, Kevin Harsanto himself has actually been involved in the music world for 11 years.

The man whose full name is Kevin Diaz Harsanto started his music career in Bali at the age of 14. At that time, he formed his first band in the Pop Punk genre, then switched to Post Hardcore or Metalcore genre until he was 22 years old.

1. Starting Solo Career

However, being only popular in his hometown did not satisfy Kevin's music career. He then moved to Jakarta and formed a band with a different genre, Emo.

Not stopping there, as time passed in 2022, Kevin finally dared to step out of his comfort zone. He started a solo career as a pop singer.

2. Often Called a Metal Kid

Personal Document

But before deciding to switch genres, Kevin Harsanto was often labeled by his friends as a metal kid. But who would have thought that Kevin himself idolized bands such as D'Masiv, Kangen Band, Last Child, and Vierra, who inspired Kevin in creating his own work.

According to him, all genres of music are the same. As long as it's enjoyable to listen to, genre is not a barrier for a music lover.

"Any genre is fine as long as it sounds good to me," said Kevin in a press release received on Thursday (10/3).

3. Being a Fan

"Actually, I've been a fan of them for a long time, but only now I have the opportunity to go in that direction," he continued.

Returning to his latest song, Kevin Harsanto admitted that he did have a personal experience, so the song Sekedar Menganangmu was born to enliven the domestic music industry.
