Raisa releases ‘best of’ album
JAKARTA - Pop singer Raisa has released a new album filled with her best and most requested tracks following the success of her self-titled and Heart to Heart albums released in 2011 and 2013, respectively.
"People keep asking me through Facebook, Instagram and Twitter about where they can find my previous albums, so I'm so grateful for this release," Raisa told a press conference on Monday.
In addition to her debut single "Serba Salah", The Best of Raisa consists of eight other tracks, including "Apalah (Arti Menunggu)" and "LDR". There are also special tracks that were recorded live and performed in different arrangements, such as "Could It Be", which, Raisa said, was darker compared to the original, and a more cheerful version of "Teka-Teki".
Raisa compared the difference between recording live and in a studio.
"Recording live is faster since I perform with the band, meanwhile recording in a studio gives me the opportunity to explore and experiment with different instruments," she said, adding that her next album would be simpler and use fewer instruments, as well as incorporate more mature lyrics.
