Facts About the Selection of the Soundtrack 'SORE: WIFE FROM THE FUTURE' Sung by Barasuara, Conduct an Exploration

Barasuara contributed to the soundtrack of the film Soon: Wife from the Future with two songs, namely Pancarona and Terbuang Dalam Waktu. Suryana Paramita, as the producer of this film, revealed the facts behind the selection of Barasuara.

"As for Barasuara, usually when Yandi and I are in the script development process, the process of writing the script also involves musical elements. This was the case in the film Satu Kakak Tujuh Ponakan recently. So the scriptwriting process was done together with figuring out the right music to accompany this story. What song should it be, we did some searching. Yandi Lawrence was the one who found Barasuara," he explained in an exclusive interview via Zoom on Tuesday (29/7).

"So when Terbuang Dalam Waktu was just released, maybe around 2022-2023. I was listening, accidentally. Then I tried to listen to the lyrics and it seemed to fit what we were currently developing together. I tried to include it, it was already mentioned in the script that we would use the song by Barasuara. But whether it fits or not, we still don’t know. I mean, it’s still in our heads," he continued.

No wonder, if the film Sore makes many people fall in love, the whole team worked with totality. Suryana recounted that when the shooting was finished, the song Terbuang Dalam Waktu was included in the film. "It turns out our assumptions or visions during development were exactly like what was in the film when edited," he said.

Then, Suryana contacted Gerald to invite him to watch together. He also asked Gerald for permission to explore the song Terbuang Dalam Waktu with their concept.

"Because as we know, the arrangement involves exploration, a marriage between visual and audio. And we asked Gerald for permission, is it okay if we explore the discarded song over time with a concept like this," he concluded.

Gerald Situmorang, the bassist of Barasuara, admitted that he liked and agreed with the concept given by Suryana. "Well, until now, as we can see on the big screen," Suryana concluded.
