Once Mekel's Dream of Recording a Song with Late Father-in-law Stalled Midway

Among the sweet memories that remain, there is one regret felt by Once Mekel after the passing of his father-in-law, Muchammad Tauchid. A dream music project they had planned together must be halted and will never come to fruition.

As a son-in-law who is also a musician, Once had a great desire to collaborate seriously with his father-in-law, whom he acknowledged as a great drummer. The plan to create a song together had already been conceived between them.

"There are also some drafts, drafts of songs in the studio with my grandchild, eh what, my child. But they are just ordinary drafts. The ideas need to be explored further," he said.

Now, all that remains are memories of the times they often played music together without having the chance to record their timeless works.
