Adrian Alaric Walden Tjoa // Jakarta-based songwriter.

Born in Bandung (’04) and shaped by a rich cultural mix of Chinese-Sundanese and Manado-Betawi roots, moving between the creative hubs of Jakarta and Bandung naturally fine-tuned a diverse artistic ear. The journey started simply out of a pure obsession with music spending years dissecting tracks, hoarding lyrics, and catching random melodies in voice notes. What was once a daily creative outlet eventually paved the way to a full-time role at a prominent music label in Jakarta.

Driven by raw instinct and a knack for storytelling, the focus now is entirely on elevating the local music scene. It’s about turning daily observations, unfiltered human emotions, and distinct sonic textures into authentic tracks that genuinely resonate. From conceptualizing the first beat to locking in the final hook, the goal remains the same: crafting sounds that people don’t just hear, but actually feel.
