Production

Chrisye and Erwin Gutawa, a conductor who had coordinated Chrisye's first solo concert in 1994, began working on what was to become AkustiChrisye in 1995.Шаблон:Sfn Realising that Western artists such as Frank Sinatra had found success in rearranging their older songs, the two decided to do the same with Chrisye's older work.Шаблон:Sfn They chose the songs "Kala Sang Surya Tenggelam" ("When the Sun Set"), "Anak Jalanan" ("Street Child"), and "Smaradhana" ("Passion") from the 1978 album Sabda Alam, as well as "Gita Cinta – Puspa Indah" ("Love Song – Beautiful Flower"), a remix of two songs from the 1980 album Puspa Indah. The album also saw several new songs, written by other artists.Шаблон:Sfn

The album focused on using acoustic music, which Chrisye described as simple but still requiring serious work.Шаблон:Sfn At the time the genre had seen a resurgence in Indonesia, with the state broadcaster TVRI carrying several shows which featured acoustic music.Шаблон:Sfn The audio was recorded at Studios 301 in Sydney, Australia, with a full orchestra providing backing in a period of three hours.
