That weekend in New York became even more unforgettable when I had the honor of meeting the legendary songwriter and composer, James F. Sundah, at Java Jazz Festival Goes to New York. I’ve never felt so starstruck. he’s truly an extraordinary person.
What began as a simple moment to express my admiration for his work turned into a meaningful conversation about music. He also shared his full enthusiasm for my vision with Disconesia. His passion and warmth left a lasting impression.
While many recognize James F. Sundah as the brilliant mind behind Chrisye’s iconic hit “Lilin-Lilin Kecil,” here are five other incredible works by James F. Sundah that you absolutely need to check out:
Kiki Maria - Bayang-bayang Jingga
Vina Panduwinata - Aku Cinta Kau
Ruth Sahanaya - Astaga
Chrisye - Mesin Kota
January Christy - Bertahan

When I first listened to Honey, Baby live at our first stop, the goosebumps were unreal, & I lived for every time it was about to play in every city we hit after that.
As I took the Link on my way to the Seattle airport, I played the song like it was the credits of a movie, because these last two weeks have really felt like one, & then yeah I burst into tears on that train lol. Y’all just don’t understand, these people are my heroes, and after touring with them, that feeling has only grown stronger.
I'm forever thankful for this opportunity, & i love y'all so much @angeesentana@akbarrumandung@edoalventa@farizkyw please come back to the US soon ❤️❤️❤️
