Generasi Biru is the fourth studio album by Indonesian rock band Slank, released on November 15, 1994 through their own record label, Piss Record. This is the first album produced by Slank themselves after their contract with Boedi Soesatio was discontinued. It was recorded in 1994 at Cipayung and Cibubur. This album is best known for "Kamu Harus Pulang", "Pisah Saja Dulu" and "Terbunuh Sepi" as their lead single.
Because for their high sales in all music categories around 1994 to 1995, the album won double platinum award from the BASF Awards.
Slank had made a breakthrough in Indonesian music in the 90's. Before Slank, Indonesian music was dominated by the so-called 'pop cengeng' and the creative pop genre. The various musical influences of Slank members made an impact on their music. This difference was found out by a graphic designer, Boedi Soesatio, who was also a family friend of Indra Q. Boedi Soesatio was the man who was the band's producer for their first three albums.
After their contract with Boedi Soesatio had been discontinued, Slank decided to produce the next album themselves. Slank tried to make another breakthrough by recording the album outside a recording studio. The album was recorded in three places. Six songs were recorded at Pondok Nurul, a villa in Puncak, West Java. Two songs were recorded at Bunda Emma's place in Cibubur, West Java. The rest were recorded at their home base in Jalan Potlot. Uniquely, recording vocals for "Terbunuh Sepi", recorded in the middle of a field and in the middle of the night to give some sort of a mellow vibe. During the recording at Pondok Nurul, Pay and Indra Q caught chickenpox. They had to take a break from the recording process during the illness.
They used three units of ADAT, and Super VHS format recording units owned by Indra Q. The mixing and mastering process was done by Indra Q at IQ Kamar Musik. The recording process was drawn as a sketch inside the album sleeve. [1] This is the first time they use their new logo designed by Bongky, it was used until now.
This album is marketed in the form of Cassette and Compact disc with distribution assisted by Program/Virgo Rec. The album was at the height of the charts. Because of this, they won the award double platinum from BASF Awards.
