Expressing Concerns About a Hope Through the Song Fantasi

Kapanlagi.com - Bandung is one of the cities that has produced many great Indonesian musicians, whether in band, solo, or vocal group format. This time, a new band from Kota Kembang tries their luck in the Indonesian music industry, following their predecessors. Yes, the band named Jave pub presents their work.

Recently, the band consisting of Kevin (Vocal), Reza (Keyboard), Adijon (Bass), and Ryan (Drums) released a single titled Fantasi. The members of Jave use this song as a medium to express their concerns about someone's desire to achieve something with all their expectations, which may not necessarily happen.

"If we describe it in the current millennial condition, there are many people who only have high fantasies that they can only keep to themselves, and it has the potential to become a bad habit in their efforts to realize it or even become a mental health issue that has become increasingly prevalent lately," said Kevin in a press release received by Kapanlagi.com.

1. Song Rich in Arrangements

Carrying exploratory pop music, this song is so rich in arrangements. From the first second the song is played, listeners will be invited to explore a carnival-themed ride combined with a brass band arrangement that gives this song two different moods, dark and bright at the same time.

Divided into several phases, in the first verse we are invited to ask and find answers to someone's dreams of finding their anchor. This is represented in the lyrics excerpt "tangled in my fantasy, where will we anchor? side by side you and me, hold my hand don't hesitate", the question slowly becomes an unstoppable worry.

2. Like Someone Imagining

Like someone who is imagining, the second verse seems to give us concrete steps and the courage to break through things that can eventually be realized. The quote "dance, run, and spin to your heart's content" represents a man who desires to establish a relationship with a woman he dreams of, and turns his imagination into reality.

Through this song, Jave also wants to invite listeners to keep dreaming. Through dreams, humans have a better purpose in life. It depends on how the person wants to make an effort to realize their dreams or not.

"Dreaming is something that must be done by humans, it's what sometimes makes us feel fully alive, it's just a matter of how each individual chooses to pursue those dreams, whether they want to be optimistic or not, whether they want to make an effort or not," Adijon said.
