Collaborating Harmony: Dwiki Dharmawan (also known as simply Collaborating Harmony) is the first compilation album by Indonesian musician and songwriter Dwiki Dharmawan. It was released by Sony Music Indonesia on 6 February 2014, almost a year after his special album, Menembus Batas. Created as part of his thirtieth anniversary celebration, the album was inspired by Dwiki's musical journey in Indonesian music over the years and consists of twelve tracks that are mostly remakes of Dwiki's songs, along with the new song "Kerinduanku".

The album was preceded by the lead single "Imaji" sung by Shena Malsiana, which previously released on 11 December 2013. A physical version of the album was released on 25 February 2014 to generally positive reviews from critics, who complimented its fresh arrangement and interaction with the "new generation" singers and music directors.

Shortly after, Dwiki began explaining which music genre heard by teenagers and younger children. [2] The title Collaborating Harmony describes Dwiki's musical journey in Indonesian music for the last three decades. [3] From most of his songs, twelve of them are chosen to be sung by young singers. The album originally consists of thirty tracks, then shrunk to twenty as an official from Sony Music Jan Djuhana announced them and finally reduced to ten in which representing songs' harmony and theme, including songs by Krakatau and television drama theme songs. He also wrote and self-arranged the new song, "Kerinduanku" ("My Longing"), [4] and remakes of his previously written English-language songs, "Lamalera's Dream" and "We Are Many We Are One". It was preceded by the album's lead single and title track "Imaji" ("Image") sung by Shena Malsiana, released on 11 December 2013, [5] which received positive reviews, including its rearrangement. [6] The album itself released digitally on 6 February, followed by the physical release on 25 February. [4]
To produce Collaborating Harmony, Dwiki enlisted new collaborators to fit in with modern-day Indonesian music, such as songwriter Badai and young singers, including singer Shena Malsiana performing "Imaji", Mikha Angelo of Overtunes performing "Sekitar Kita", Dalagita performing "Biru Selintas Rindu", child actress Lana Nitibaskara performing "Dengan Menyebut Nama Allah" and Alex Rudiart performing "Melangkah Di Atas Awan". [7] [8] Sonically, this album adopted more of the "teen pop musical trends", [lower-alpha 1] as described by Dwiki. [2]
