How DNANDA Created The Song?
Dnanda revealed that he wrote the lyrics in just one night and completed the arrangement within three days.
After adding finishing touches in the studio, he considered it one of the fastest songs he had ever produced compared to his previous works.
“Bola Mata Sayu” carries the soul of a classic pop-ballad.
Its foundation feels familiar, yet it also blends in subtle touches of doo-wop, giving the song a warm, almost vintage atmosphere.
When shaping the track, Dnanda looked outward for inspiration.
He drew influence from international icons like Eric Carmen and Bryan Adams, both known for their timeless melodies.
At the same time, he turned to local music heritage.
He admired the late Chrisye, especially the way Chrisye could deliver simplicity while still making songs deeply powerful.
He said that Chrisye’s ability to deliver emotional power through minimalism inspired the way he approached this single.
Marking his return to Sony Music Indonesia this year, Dnanda sees the song as a new chapter in his career.
He noted that “Bola Mata Sayu” differs from his earlier, more melancholic works.
Instead, this track highlights romance, admiration, and hope—emotions that listeners can enjoy with a smile.
For him, working again with Sony Music is a milestone, since being supported by a major label with a global network brings him closer to his dream of reaching international listeners.
Closing his reflections on the song, Dnanda shared his hopes for the single.
He wished for “Bola Mata Sayu” to become a soundtrack for those in love, reminding people of the magical moment when admiration begins with a gaze.
He also expressed his desire for the song to bring him closer to his long-term goals in the music world.
“Bola Mata Sayu” is available on all digital streaming platforms.
