Sheila on 7's article on Kapanlagi titled 'We have many collection of (unpublished) songs'
In this particular interview, Duta reveals that he himself composes a new song every two months and Eross, the mad guitarist (in a good way), composes a new song every single week. In saying that, we have to remember that they are in no way the most active band these days. Their last album came out in 2011, and the one before that came out in 2008. It's safe to say that in the last five years, they have only managed to publish a minuscule amount of their songs. If only there was a way in the world where these ears of mine can ever get a chance to listen to the rest of their collection :( So, why do they keep doing this? It sounds to me like it has become a second nature to them, composing songs without even thinking of the prospect of how it would be received and sold to the public. They do this because they simply love it. Duta mentions that 'this is what keeps the band alive' and in the greater scale, pushes the whole Indonesian music scene to keep improving and to hopefully follow So7's footsteps by releasing songs with such high standards and quality that they have kept up with for nearly 17 years long now.

End of rant.
Happy Sunday
