Introducing the Japanese City Pop Nuance, Fatin Shidqia Releases New Single "Pelangi Dan Hujan"

Kapanlagi.com - For Fatinistic (the term for Fatin's fans), it is no secret that Fatin is a fan of Japanese pop culture, ranging from comics, anime, games, and J-Pop songs. Fatin openly shows that she is an otaku or wibu. She watches Yakusoku Neverland, Sword Art Online, Kimetsu No Yaiba, and Tokyo Ghoul, and also enjoys the early works of Ayumi Hamasaki, Yui, Utada Hikaru, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. She often attends events themed around Japanese culture, as it is part of Fatin's daily life and her love for Japanese pop culture.

So, if Fatin finally manages to create a work with a J-Pop nuance, it is a long-standing desire that she wants to fulfill. Together with Nadya Fatira, who previously collaborated on the OST Dreams and the single "Jingga", Fatin finally gives birth to a new work titled "Pelangi dan Hujan" with a J-Pop nuance.

Listening to "Pelangi dan Hujan" feels like being transported back to the classic J-Pop era in the 80s - 90s. With a catchy intro and a melody that is very easy listening and easy to follow. It comes with an upbeat medium with a dynamic song structure, complete with electric guitar touches and snippets of Japanese lyrics, making this song not boring.

In the lyrics, Fatin tells a story about being in love. "You could say this song is about the feelings of a couple in the early stages of a relationship, feeling like they can go through many things together." Rainbows and rain represent those feelings, where in moments of happiness it feels like a rainbow in the heart and in moments of sadness it feels like rain but still feels and looks beautiful," Fatin said.

As she has done in previous works, as a singer/songwriter, Fatin is very involved and directly involved in working on "Rainbows and Rain", undergoing workshops and exploring various references to realize the song as she desires.

The visual artwork for "Rainbows and Rain" was done by @jyakaruta Jakarta Dalam Anime, an anime artist from Jakarta who is able to convey the message and nuance of this song. The music video for "Rainbows and Rain" was released on the Vevo Fatin YouTube channel on Thursday, September 17, 2020, at 16.00 WIB. The MV was directed by Angga Gadutism, featuring Fatin in her signature pink and pastel atmosphere, with visuals that accurately translate the beauty and joy of the early stages of a relationship but also hold a little plot twist.

“I hope that anyone who listens to the song "Rainbows and Rain" feels the joy and happiness that I feel and want to convey during the creation of this work. And also to my fellow wibu friends, I hope they can continue to love Japanese pop culture without shame, embrace it and be proud of it," Fatin said when asked about the hopes she brings through this single.
