Writing and production

For Alexandria soundtrack album, Peterpan tried to create a different sound and did some experimentation for the album's music, including in the lyrics-writing.

Songs

OST Alexandria contains five new songs. Unlike Peterpan's previous albums, the songwriting for this album was not dominated by Petepan's vocalist Ariel. Out of the five new songs, only "Tak Bisakah" was completely written by Ariel.

Ariel stated during the album's release that the reason the old songs are rearranged is to dispel notion that the album is merely a compilation album. [2]
