Theme and background

edit

Isyana Sarasvati released her third studio album Lexicon on 29 November 2019.[8] The album marked a change in Isyana's musical colours from pop and R&B to neo-classical and progressive rock[9]

On 20 October 2020, Isyana founded her own record label called Redrose Records.[10] A week later, she released a single titled "Unlock the Key", which still retained the progressive rock colours.[11] On 6 March 2021, Isyana released the single "Il Sogno".[12] On 27 December 2021, Isyana collaborated with the music group Deadsquad to release a metal version of the single.[13]

In June 2022, Isyana released her first mini album titled my Mystery as a thematic and groove bridge to this album.[14]

Then the Isyana album was released as a full album on 26 May 2023.[15]

Compose

edit

According to Isyana, this album was born from the maturation process after the COVID-19 pandemic and various events that occurred around her.[16] Through a press conference on the release date, Isyana revealed that she incorporated elements of rock, opera, classical and progressive and was inspired by the musical freedom of music groups, Queen.[17]

Release

edit

Isyana held a "showcase" concert titled "ISYANA: The 4th Album Showcase" on 20 May 2023 at Gedung Kesenian Jakarta, Central Jakarta.[18]
