Dialog Dini Hari, the most respectable introspective folk group in Bali—have lately become relatively well known across metropolitan Indonesia—have just released their brand new album, Lengkung Langit, a few weeks ago. Consisting of four songs, the record is in vinyl format and limited: only 200 pieces have been pressed.
Recorded in Antida Studio, Bali, this album is their third composition. Their debut album, Beranda Taman Hati, was distributed to the public in 2008 and received warm responses. The second one, Album #2, released in 2010, has made their reputation as the ballad masters, even stronger. Now with this latest recording, the trio (Dadang, Zio and Deny) invited a few brilliant musicians to participate as well, including Kartika Jahja (vocal), Riza Arshad (accordion), Angelo Berardi (violin), and Windu Estianto (piano).
