오늘의 모르포 선곡입니다. 아티스트 Vietra 는 인도네시아의 싱어송라이터인데요. 우연히 들은 음악이었는데 선율이 자꾸만 귓가를 멤돌고 잊혀지지 않아 이렇게 모르포 선곡의 첫 곡으로 소개합니다. 아티스트를 검색해보고 그녀의 애띤 얼굴에 놀랐는데요. 인터뷰 내용을 보고 또 한번 놀랐네요. 본인의 음악이 무슨 장르인지 작곡을 제대로 배워본 적도 없다는 Vietra, 사진을 보니 아직 풋풋한 소녀의 모습이더군요. 진정 음악은 배우는 것이 아닌 느끼는 것인가봅니다.
그녀의 곡 대부분이 좋지만 특히 좋았던 In love 를 소개합니다.

Interview with Vietra
What genre of music do you make ?
To be honest, I don't even know what genre of music I make. I compose what I want to compose. Sometimes I just listen to a song and then my brain goes like, "you have to create this kind of music" and boom!! one of my music is born.One thing I know is that I create music as a media of what I can't express by words. I love to create something emotional and full of feelings, but til' this day I really don't know what my music genre is. I think it's not pegged on one type- I listen to many genres so it's kinda like mixed or something but I don't know, really. It's hard for me to explain, maybe I'll find out about it later! I need some time to think though."
First song?
I came with my first song "Dim Lights" on August 15th, 2016. There's a little story behind it. I made that song as a trial and I really just wanted to have some fun. Music was not something I'm diggin in at the time, I just love music that much since I was kid- but that's it.
I didn't have any idea that I'm going to be serious in this platform in the future. Months after I posted "dim ligths" there were only a few people liked it, and by few i mean really a few--it was only 7 or 8 people. Til' out of nowhere, one of the soundcloud artist liked that song and it became pretty huge, especially for me at that time. There were only 15 to 20 people liked it at first but then I reached to 50 and it was really huge to me. I've decided that I gotta be serious in music since then with a few other reasons that I might explain later on other questions.
Did you go to music school ?
"I learn it myself--the music production and song writing. I took some piano lessons back in the days but it didn't fit me that much since I'm not patient and I learn by ears so taking a music school is totally not a thing for me. I even disliked some of my music teachers cuz they won't let me play what I wanted to play! Lol. Not a good thing though. Y'all, please keep on learning if you want to be good at something. I'm a really bad example."
Some people comment on your music that your song is emotional and fulfilled with love. Is it just your music style or something happened in your life impacted on your music style?
It is my music style, yes.
But something did happen in my life that I'm able to create emotional and fulfilled with love kind of songs. I went through things. Fulfilling a dream that you thought you were never gonna have is tough--at least for me. In those hard days, though, I still think that I have to fill my life with hopes as much as possible so that I won't do myself any harm, one of them is by loving. It doesn't have to be a person--I created a song for my piano, my favourite artists, musicians, someone that I look up to, my favourite song, my favourite things. I just personificate all of those so that my songs would make more sense (is that even a right word to say tho idk).
Who is your favorite musician?
A lot. There are really a lot.
I listen to so many musicians and albums and songs so I can't really decide which one is my favourite. Just gonna let yall know that my most favourite genre is bossa nova cuz it's so fuckin beautiful and Antonio Carlos Jobim is the love of my life. Heheh. But really, though, it always depends on my mood. If I have to answer with current artist, I'd go with Daniel Caesar. I fucking love Freudian album. That shit was a magic and will always be a great, great magic to me. Not to mention that I like all of his albums too, despite not being a very fan of it.
Story behind "ineedyou"
I wrote it when I was in my lowest condition at the time. I felt really lost for no reason at all so I wrote it down in hope that the song would do anything to me. It did, though. That was a total miracle! I was shocked that I got to hit 1k likes on the song within 4 days when people didn't listen to my music that much. I don't know if I really deserve it or not but man I cried when I find out about it.
What genre of music do you make ?
Whatever equipment or software you have, if you want to do it just do it. That's okay to start it simple. What matters is your idea and how wild you brain could be when you're bitching up with the melodies. Having good equipments or softwares is just a bonus. Talking about the process, I always start by creating on guitar or piano while I sing, and record it with voice note so that I won't forget what I made. I never write write cuz I can't. I'm bad at music theories. After that I made a couple arrangements and stuff on my portable grand, convert it to garageband, do some mixings and voila! It's done. I think I'm really bad at explaining but I hope y'all can get my point.

In love 가사
I'm so in love with you
난 당신에게 푹 빠져버렸죠
You just hug me and give me warmth
당신은 그저 날 껴안고 온기만 주면 되요
That could take away my pain
내 아픔을 사라지게 만들 것들이죠
And you let me feel so safe.
그리고 그댄 내게 안전하다는 느낌이 들게 하죠
And peacefully calm
그리고 고요한 적막
Dark runaway, Sea isn't cold
어둠이 물러가고, 바다는 춥지 않죠
Again when you're around
다시 그대가 머무는 동안
Your voice is near.
당신의 목소리가 곁에
Right beside my ear
바로 나의 귀 옆에
and I'll fall asleep again
그렇게 난 다시 잠들죠
Into your dusk and soothe my dark to glowing art I see the bloom
당신의 황혼 속으로 그리고 내 어둠 속을 빛낼 작품으로 꽃봉우리가 보여요
Of your flowers inside your heart and stars held by your eyes bring me to blue Sky's
당신의 꽃 속에 담겨진 그대의 마음 그리고 그대의 눈에 담겨진 푸른 하늘의 꽃같은 별들
And you hold me by your side
그리고 그대는 날 안아주네요
