Kapanlagi.com - The Indonesian music scene continues to evolve with the emergence of new talents. One of the new entities that has emerged to support talented musicians is ASKII Music Indonesia.

As a label services, ASKII Music is ready to help elevate the works of local musicians to be more recognized. One of their latest releases is the single “Jika Memang” performed by Uncle Aie.

This song is a work by Joeniar Arief that has been reimagined in a fresher version. The latest version of “Jika Memang” brings a pop vibe with a cheerful and fresh beat. The song tells the story of someone waiting for an answer from their beloved.

With poetic lyrics and a catchy melody, this song brings new spirit to its listeners. During the event 'ASKII: One Stage Session' held at Winners Backyard, South Jakarta, on Friday (8/11/2024).

"This song was written by Joeniar Arief, and I performed it with a passion that I have long wanted to realize. In the past, when I had an artist management, Joeniar Arief was one of the talents." I really love this song, but at that time the promotion for the song wasn't optimal," said Uncle Aie.

"One day while I was at the gym, this song came up on the playlist, then I contacted Arief and asked for permission to perform it again. So enthusiastic, Arief immediately sent the MP3 and the minus one," he continued.

Uncle Aie, who idolizes legendary singer Harvey Malaiholo, also shares his first experience in the recording studio.

“This recording is my first experience. At first, I was nervous, but in the end, it went smoothly. The lesson is, if you want to record, you have to be fresh, and the mood has to be good. The important thing is to express what I want,” he explains.

The recording process of “If Indeed” took place at the ASKII Music Studio in Depok, with the help of arranger Eldy ‘Anima’ and the support of his daughter, Naya J. To provide a deep experience for listeners, Uncle Aie has also released a lyric video for this song, which can now be enjoyed on digital platforms.

“Uncle Aie has wanted to sing for a long time. Now, everyone can create. We at ASKII want to accommodate talents that are overlooked by major labels, even those who might be marginalized. We are more of a service label, which is not so well-known in Indonesia. Here, musicians like Uncle Aie can record without having to be artists who appear in the media,” said Wawan from ASKII Music.
