Atilia "Indah"

Atilia has dabbled in the music industry from a very young age. She has a rich musical heritage and has given strong indications of her talent since young. A singer and songwriter, her adult contemporary sound is soulful and contemplative yet deals with universal themes of life and love to which one can relate to. In just a span of less than a decade since she took off professionally as a performer, she has done well.

After her debut album, Sangkar was released in 2007, which was hailed by listeners and music aficionados as a production of the utmost quality in compositions arrangements and mix that were accompanied by music videos that were beyond the expectations of many Malaysian listeners and viewers, Atilia, with sure footedness explored other areas within the art of performance.

She confidently took the stage and performed in musicals, acted and entertained on TV and produced showcases and concerts for carefully selected performers to provide them a platform to expose their talents and compositions further.

Her second album, Indah, which she considers closer to her heart as she was able to collaborate with many artists she had had ambitions to work with and managed to pool exactly who she had wanted to perform with for the album.

The reprisal of Maliq & D*Essentials, Harus Bagaimana, originally sung solo by Angga, Maliq’s lead performer, was tweaked and made into a duet together Angga himself and was recorded with the group in Jakarta.

Noh of Hujan fame, duets with her in Old Love. a beautiful ballad that was written by Mike Bloemendal, Atilia’s previous employer and close friend.

Atilia’s introduction to SORE, a band she respects highly for bringing nostalgia back to her life with their music that reflects the romantic days of yore back to the fore of South East Asian music. They produced Silly Little Things that brings tropical breezes to your ears with a calm and dreamy instrumentations reminiscent of walks by the sea.
