How Marcell Siahaan Approach The Song
Through Mulanya Disini, Marcell chooses an honest and understated approach.
Instead of amplifying the song with grand gestures, he allows space for its meaning to unfold naturally.
As a result, the song slows things down and turns its focus inward.
It speaks about togetherness and patience.
It also highlights the sense of responsibility that grows within a relationship.
Those are the values that Marcell and Rima both want to share clearly through the music.
Marcell has shared that the song did not need to be made bigger than it already was, as its beauty lies in sincerity.
He emphasized that their role was simply to deliver the message with genuine feeling.
Meanwhile, Rima’s presence adds a deeply personal layer to the track.
She has known Mulanya Disini since childhood, having grown up with the song during her early years in Singapore.
Now, after more than seventeen years of marriage, the song returns in a new light.
It moves beyond nostalgia.
Instead, it reflects a shared journey of love that continues to be chosen and renewed.

Collaboration with Rima Melati Adams
Furthermore, Rima’s involvement in the project feels natural.
She brings with her a long history in the arts and performance world.
Over the years, she has appeared on various national television programs. Her work spans both Singapore and Malaysia.
She has also collaborated musically with Marcell in the past, making this partnership a continuation rather than a surprise.
Recorded with an intimate and minimal arrangement, Mulanya Disini brings together two voices shaped by time, companionship, and personal growth.
The song presents love not as an idealized concept, but as a daily decision, one that often starts anew from the beginning.
Mulanya Disini now marks a new chapter for Marcell Siahaan and Rima Melati Adams.
The song stands as their collaborative single.
It is currently available across all major digital streaming platforms in Indonesia.
