Bingkai Karya – After releasing their second album Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi in 2025, Lomba Sihir returns with a deeper continuation of the record through ‘Setelah: Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi’, released today, September 4, 2026. The deluxe edition expands the original 16-track album with five new songs, including “Di Seberang,” which was previously released on July 15, 2026.
The idea for the deluxe edition emerged shortly after Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi arrived on May 7, 2025. The five members, Natasha Udu, Rayhan Noor, Enrico Octaviano, Tristan Juliano, and Hindia felt that there were still more personal stories and perspectives to explore. Rather than simply extending the album’s tracklist, the new material became another space for the band to continue the conversations that shaped the original record.
“We agreed that there was something deeper we could explore from Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi. There were more personal things we wanted to express,” says Natasha Udu. Hindia adds that after the original album was released, the members continued consuming new music and developing ideas they wished they had explored earlier. ‘Setelah: Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi’ became their way of bringing those ideas into the same creative era and bringing it to a satisfying close.
The five new songs continue Lomba Sihir’s concept of music as a conversation between its members. The band worked together on the music, while the lyrics allowed each member to respond freely to one another. This approach gives the songs an intimate, conversational quality, with stories moving between personal confessions, advice, disagreement, and reflection.
Each track explores a different dimension of everyday life. “Cerita Cinta” reflects on how family backgrounds shape people’s understanding of love and normality, while “Hampir” examines the struggle of trying to meet conflicting expectations. “Vas Bunga” portrays someone watching the band’s journey from a distance. Meanwhile, “Di Seberang” grew from Enrico’s personal reflections on marriage and mortality, and “Sedikit demi Sedikit” follows someone attempting to understand life’s setbacks and make changes before losing even more.
Musically, the new material continues Lomba Sihir’s wide sonic spectrum, combining thoughtful arrangements with accessible melodies and unexpected textures. According to Rayhan Noor, the deluxe edition encourages listeners to look even closer at the small things around them and recognize how deeply they can influence everyday life.
With ‘Setelah: Obrolan Jam 3 Pagi’, Lomba Sihir hopes listeners can discover new depths in their music and find companionship in its stories. The band is also set to bring these songs to the stage, including at Konser Ujung Dunia at GBK Basketball Hall, Jakarta, on November 21, 2026.
