Colderra "Dersik" Desah Bisikan Samar di Sekitar

“Dersik” track teranyar unit power metal Kota Malang, Colderra, satu single yang menuturkan satu keadaan dimana adakalanya seseorang selalu mendengar suara-suara sekitar namun tak berwujud.

 


 


“Dersik” menjadi single lanjutan pengantar album penuh ke-2 Colderra, sebelumnya 3 track yang dirilis duluan “Cracked”, “Holy Fire” dan “Jouska” mendapat banyak review positif dari berbagai media. Selain itu, ketiganya juga menembus belasan tangga lagu dari berbagai program stasiun radio, terutama radio-radio mancanegara. Bahkan “Jouska” sampai hari ini masih bertengger di 10 besar tangga lagu Only Rock Radio, Spanyol.


Mulanya “Dersik” direncanakan rilis di bulan-bulan akhir tahun kemarin, alasan klise dan cukup umum yang membuatnya molor hingga baru dilepas awal tahun ini. “Kita bertiga kan punya kehidupan pribadi dan pekerjaan masing-masing, jadi karena harus ada prioritas aktivitas baru bisa rilis awal tahun 2023, selain itu akhir tahun kemarin kami lagi pada bokek” ungkap Colderra sambi tertawa.


Arti “Dersik” menurut KBBI adalah desir atau suara angin, namun bagi Iwan sang vokalis artinya menjadi lebih luas secara penjabaran. “Entahlah kalau orang lain, kalau saya kadang di momen tertentu terutama saat sendiri di tempat sepi seperti ada suara-suara yang ngajak ngomong atau bisikin sesuatu. Cuman di pikiran atau memang ada Dzat yang melakukannya, saya juga gak bisa menjelaskan dengan pasti” ungkapnya.


Bagi pendengar Colderra, “Dersik” akan terasa sangat berbeda dengan lagu-lagu lainnya. Komposisinya dibuat oleh sang drummer dan programmer Yasa Wijaya, yang sebelumnya hanya mendominasi di sektor teknis produksi. “Iseng aja sih bikin aransemen, terus tatunjukin ke personel lain dan aku kira bakal ditolak soalnya beda banget, lha kok malah suruh lanjut” kata Yasa.


Menjadi semakin terasa bedanya karena di “Dersik” ada suara latar dengan karakter vokal ‘Growl’, membuat karakter lagunya jadi terasa lebih berisi secara penekanan nada. “Waktu proses rekaman di studio lagi ada temen nongkrong namanya Jihad, dia vokalisnya Dawn Of Impurity dengan karakter scream and nge’growl. Pasti bakal lebih pas kalau dia ikut jadi backing karena konsep lagunya memang lebih berat dari sebelumnya, bukan featuring sih cuman bantuin jadi backing vokal” jelas Iboer sang gitaris.


Seperti proses pembuatan artwork-artwork Colderra yang terdahulu, “Dersik” juga menggunakan materi dari beberapa seniman dari  platform-platform berbagi gambar. “Biasa, seperti yang dulu-dulu, nyari yang sesuai tema terus diedit biar pas, jadi gak otentik sih tapi saling menguntungkan buat semua yang terlibat” kata Iwan. “Kalau video lirik ‘Dersik’ ini hasil kerja sama dengan label kita dulu ‘Gerbang Sembilan’ dan ‘Metal Opera Webzine’ semoga aja ke depannya dapat terus kerja bareng” lanjutnya.


Colderra menyampaikan sesudah “Dersik” akan melepas EP/Mini album sebelum album penuh keduanya dirilis. “Maunya sih albumnya cepet rilis dan materi lagu juga sudah terkumpul, sudah terpaut jauh sejak ‘Quantum Imagination’ album debut 2018 lalu. Mudah-mudahan gabanyak hambatan dalam prosesnya kan kadang ada aja yang gak sesuai planning. Maklum, seringnya  band jadi nomer ke-sekian dari urutan prioritas” ungkap mereka.


“Kita sebenarnya juga malu, karena waktu rilis single-single sebelumya selalu ngomong albumnya bakal segera rilis, gataunya molor sampai sekarang, kalau diperjelas bakal banyak alasan yang bikin molor. Semoga teman-teman pemusik lain gak ngalamin kayak kita dan di 2023 ini semoga semua hal yang kita harapkan bisa tercapai walau gak 100%” kata Iwan menambahkan.


Menyadur dari interpretasi mengenai single termutakhir Colderra ini, bisa jadi “Dersik” yang terjadi di diri kita masing-masing adalah suatu penunjuk arah, agar kita bisa mengambil tindakan untuk menuju atau menggapai sesuatu. Tapi apa benar seperti itu? Atau memang hanya sekedar suara angin lalu.


“Dersik” per tanggal 19 Januari 2023 sudah dapat didengarkan di halaman Bandcamp Colderra dan video liriknya sudah terunggah di kanal YouTube mereka. Semua pembaruan dan informasi mereka lainnya dapat ditelusuri melalui www.colderra.com official website Colderra.

COLDERRA - Dersik (Lirik)

Music by Yasa Wijaya

Lyrics by Iwan Ruby Sasmita


This Gust Makes Me Pensive All The Day

Cause Restlessness In My Soul

Swirls In My Brain And Keep Me Wondering

Because Something Is Not Right Now

Dersik.. Don’t Make Me Confused

Dersik.. Tell Me Whats The Truth

This Breeze Makes Me Predict All The Time

Cause Anxiety In My Mind

Flashed In My Eyes And Made Me Remember

Because Something Was Forgotten

Dersik.. Don’t Keep Me Waiting

Dersik.. Come On, Hurry Up

Take Me To Cross The Horizon, Even Though I Cannot Fly

Give Me A Vision Of Heaven, Even If It Makes Me Cry

Choose Me As Your Holy Knight, To Go Through Scariest Journey

Cause It’s Worth Living, Cause It’s Worth Living..

If We Don’t Know, We Must To Go

Searching, Learning And Trying

To Embrace A Better life, Sometimes Need A Lie

Even Though It’s Hard

Rising, Winning Or Dying

Take Me To Cross The Horizon, Even Though I Cannot Fly

Give Me A Vision Of Heaven, Even If It Makes Me Cry

Choose Me As Your Holy Knight, To Go Through Scariest Journey

Cause It’s Worth Living, Cause It’s Worth Living..

Midnight Guest tunes 70s heavy and occult rock in new EP



"Satanic Panic Attack"  is Midnight Guest's newest release, the EP has featured four tracks. Mixed by Daniel Stunges, mastered by Arthur Joly and cover by Juarez Tanure, the release features musical influences from Black Sabbath, Type O’Negative and alternative rock. 

The "Satanic Panic Attack" EP features a play on words; "Satanic Panic" comes from the "Satanic Panic" of the 1980s, where people blamed everything on something supposedly involved with Satanism; they burned rock records and said that Dungeons & Dragons was something of the devil. A mix of hysteria and witch hunts. "Panic Attack" comes from a theme that appears in 3 of the 4 songs on the EP: anxiety and panic attacks. Midnight Guest put together one of the things that most surfaced during the pandemic: the increase in anxiety among people and also the witch hunts and fight against windmills that we have seen mainly from this crazy government and its supporters, although that seems to me to be a global phenomenon.

About the songs: 
"Sounds Like Doom": The initial inspiration was the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and what it would be like to be inside a besieged city. The subtext is about panic syndrome, anxiety and trying not to be paralyzed by fear.

“The Hour of the Wolf ":  The lyrics are inspired by Ingmar Bergman's movie of the same name and the 16th century poem "The Dark Night of the Soul". A line from the movie sums it up well: “The Hour of the Wolf is the hour between night and dawn. It is the hour when most people die, when sleep is deepest, when nightmares are most real. It is the hour when the sleepless are haunted by their deepest fear, when ghosts and demons are most powerful. The Hour of the Wolf is also the hour when most children are born.” "Everyone has their wolf hour in their dark night of the soul," mentions Daniel Stunges as he composes the track.

"If I Could": is about anxiety caused by being bombarded with too much information, the weight of choices and feeling paralyzed. It's a song that tries to be minimalist, hypnotic and has a Bridge/solo section inspired by Thin Lizzy.

"Carve Heaven Outta Hell": It is the first song composed by Daniel Stunges together with the other members of the band. Musically it's super Black Sabbath, very slow, heavy and full of dissonance. The guitar solo at the end was played by vocalist Kjetil.

As a bridge between the present and the past, Midnight Guest tunes 1970s heavy rock and occult rock with a modern look. The project created in 2020 by guitarist Daniel Stunges joins the vocals of Kjetil Landsgard, straight from Canada, and musicians Tadeu Correa on drums and Eduardo Oliveira on bass. The genesis of Midnight Guest comes from the desire to create within the occult rock genre, popularized by names like Black Sabbath and Ghost, but which also had a punk attitude mixed with metal, as is the case with Motörhead and Misfits. This more analogue sound guided the entire production.
