Recording

Sendiri Lagi was Chrisye's fifteenth album and serves as the follow-up to his 1984 album, Sendiri . [1] [2] Chrisye and producer Younky Suwarno began recorded Sendiri Lagi in early 1993. Both required four months of planning and another four months of recording to get the best result. [3] [4]

"Lirih" was originally intended to be part of the album, but didn't make the final cut. Aryono Huboyo Djati, the song's composer, said the song was not included in Sendiri Lagi as "it didn't meet standards, unless it needed minor revisions". [a] [5] Aryono revealed due to the deadline, the song was ultimately dropped from the album. [5] However, it was later offered to Yana Julio, who re-recorded the song in 2002. [6] "Lirih" was released posthumously 15 years later, in August 2008, one year after Chrisye's death. [5]

Release and reception

The album was released in July 1993 and was well received, with the title song was released as the only single. [7] Its music video, directed by Jay Subyakto, [8] was also premiered on MTV Southeast Asia. [9] Although Sendiri Lagi did fairly well, in the beginning of the 1990s Chrisye began to feel pressure from the increasingly visual-oriented music industry and growing amount of young talent. [3] He again began considering leaving the music industry, feeling as if he had already "reached the finish line". [b] [10]

Sendiri Lagi has been reissued twice, once as a CD in 2004 [11] and once as part of the Chrisye Masterpiece Trilogy Limited Edition in 2007. [12]
