Kapanlagi.com - Singer Shinta Priwit has officially released her latest song titled Mari Bagoyang (MARGOY) on Friday, May 23, 2025. This song has been eagerly awaited since the World Dance Day celebration at the end of April.
“Alhamdulillah, finally the song 'Mari Bagoyang' is released on Friday, May 23, 2025, so it can be listened to on all digital platforms," said Shinta.
She acknowledged that the release process for the song MARGOY took longer than usual. This was due to schedule adjustments from the parties involved in its production.
"But it was targeted not to take more than a month for the release, so it could still capture the vibes of the World Dance Day celebration," said Shinta.
1. The Longest Work
Interestingly, the song MARGOY is a work that has been in Shinta's possession for several years. She mentioned that the process of creating this song has become the longest throughout her career as a songwriter.
"Actually, this song has been entrusted to me by the Almighty Creator for quite a long time, about four years ago if I'm not mistaken this song existed, and interestingly it needed to be rearranged several times, it seems this is the song I made with the longest process," Shinta explained.
For the arrangement, Shinta once again entrusted musician Rachmat Ady as in her previous works. Meanwhile, mixing and mastering were handled by Andre Mesa, who has also collaborated with her several times.
"As much as possible, if there is a song of mine that can incorporate elements of tradition, I want to try to include it, even if it's just a little and it could become a characteristic of my music as well. Because our songs can now be accessed by anyone around the world, it can also promote Indonesian traditions," Shinta explained.
