about

We had a chat with Guling, Indonisian producer that we met two years ago.

HRDF: how did you discover that track?

Guling: This edit is a tribute to the orignal tracks Bom Nuklir by legendary Indonesian islamic girlband called Nasida Ria, to keep rephrase their message about spreading peace & love to each other, making health therapy by using organic products, rather than having a nuclear power that maybe be a potential to annihilate everyone.
Nasida Ria is very familiar to most Indonesian people, it is played anywhere on TV and radio during Ramadan fasting month.
There was a legendary "Qasidah" girlband in Indonesia. Qasidah was a genre that blends pop music with arabic and muslim culture.

HRDF: why did you choose it for an edit?

Guling: I choose it because most of Indonesian youth were shamed to listen to their music. It wasn't cool, more like a kitsch taste for them. But I want to keep rephrasing their message in today's context, and also to keep bangin' it into the dancefloor hahaha!

HRDF: what do the song's lyrics mean exactly?

Guling: They tell us to keep spreading love to each other, by planting more plants to save the world or create a medication therapy by using it as an alternative way. Instead of provoking nuclear war.

I think the message works for today's situation. We're not facing a nuclear threat, missiles or something like that anymore. We are facing a virus that can kill anyone.
In the end, although we facing this shitty situation - we can't go out, we can't make plans, no gig, all tour cancelled - we still need to spread love. To me, it also means that it's time to give rest to mother earth, as it is also said in the song.
