“Flyafter is a Jakarta based band specializing in producing "beautiful pop melodies carving their way through a dreamlike foggy electronic soundscape." Part of 23 Seconds Netlabel, Today I'm With You is second release after the more acoustic sounds of the self-titled EP. In their music, Flyafter combines various elements beginning from electronic, acoustic, to techno, shoegaze, indietronic, and pop. Although the band has been performing around Jakarta for quite some time now it was not until 2010, with the release of their first EP, that their music crossed continents for the very first time. Ever since then the band have been invited to play at numerous gigs in Jakarta and cities around Indonesia and recorded it's first two EPs, both of which were made available to their fans as a free download through various sites on the Internet with sweet sequencing, synths, and drum machines all operating within their very own indietronica pop world. All in all, Flyafter is a nice listen+download”

“Jika anda telah mendengar lagu Stringless Purslane milik Bottlesmoker, mungkin ada baiknya anda kembali mendengarkan lagu tersebut yang telah mengalami perombakan dengan nuansa yang sedkit berbeda. Yah, lagu tersebut diremix kembali oleh band asal jakarta bernama Flyafter asal kota Jakarta, band yang menyebut aliran mereka ini Indietronica Acoustic Shoegaze, jadi bisa anda bayangkan bagaimana hasil remix dari band yang beranggota kan Hannan Jaya Mahardika (Conceptor, Vocal, Guitar, and Synth ), Rully Fahrezzy( Vocal and Electric Guitar ), dan Rully Luandri( Digital Sequencer, Synth, Drum Machines and Others Sound FX ).”

“Swedish home 23seconds netlabel, has proven the quality of its productions sounding electro / pop. Once again, it gives us an Ep signed a musician from Indonesia absolutely charming, in which the gentle melodies are mixed with beats and synth light, all in a spirit reminiscent of a little music the Notwist but also some Scandinavian pop. Why miss out?”

Are formed by Hannan Jaya Mahardika voice and acoustic guitar, synthesizer and the Luandri Rully Rully Fahrezzy also on vocals and electric guitar. The PS Today I'm With You was released on February 20th through the label, Swedish 23 Seconds. This EP is the second EP of this band, was recorded in the studios Sinjitos, mixed and produced by Joseph Saryuf Flyafter themselves. With a sound similar to their debut album, based on the indie pop, mixing it with details and chillwave poptrónica in a way that would almost irresponsible and dangerous but, fortunately for them, it seems to have resulted in full! When I hear new bands and try to register on the blog to their sound, clash me with some difficulty finding appropriate vocabulary to describe my hearing. And often difficult to characterize these bands are the bands I like most about and that they stay.”

"Recent Music Heroes" is blog dedicated to the free music scene. Here you find reviews, videos, news, links and more. Read what the Estonian Netaudio enthusiast Kert Semm thinks of our latest release by Flyafter This is the second album by this 4-pieced Indonesian ensemble under the Swedish 23 Seconds label. Similarly to their previous, self-titled issue the recent one is filled in with astonishing growings and transitions, more detailly, operating with traditional indie pop impetus and blissful horizons of chillwave/poptronica/glo-fi music, all in all, creating a kind of irresistible touch for ardent indie people. In a more technical language does it mean the change drifts toward a spot on drum machines, sequencers and synths. By the way, you can take the first EP and add it over to this one, thereafter getting a proper LP and more listen times. But it is just a hypothesis.

“In keeping with today's sun-filled day, there are a great EP from Indonesia. The three men behind Flyafter an equal start with their listeners on a long journey that has lasted unfortunately only 4 tracks. But it is very intensive in terms of music and lyrics. Besides the game with the instruments, which originate from the electronic area, they do it in harmony with the voice. This fits in perfectly with the melodies, floating with them, lives with them and brings this out further. If you expect the big change could be disappointed. But this is not to make the negative, no, what comes out of the speakers here is-beautiful music. Especially on a grand scale, a fact underlined in the last track again.”

“Late February was a period full of interesting new releases by some very good netlabels Europe. It 's the case of Swedish 23 Seconds, which never betrays the expectations about the quality of its proposals. In this new release presents the band Flyafter Indonesian, who has already collaborated with the label of Gothenburg in June 2010 proposing "Flyafter EP". The trio of Jakarta was born in 2004 and composed by Hannan Jaya Mahardika, Fahrezzy Rully, Rully Luandri, offers a pleasant blend of techno-pop flavors eightes with several references to some band of northern Europe and Germany in the years 90/00. Above all, certain melodies of heading back to the decade of the Cold War but also the carelessness of the proposals and all'orecchiabilità musical offerings. A-ha on holiday in the Indian Ocean. Drum machine, sequencer, pompous reverb and a guitar that offers warmth and humanity to the final product. Excellent work.”

“Mkorbit is a German site about free music, mainly from the netlabel scene. The site is run by photographer Matthias Kirschenstein. This week he wrote about our latest release by Flyafter. Have published as Flyafter (Jakarta, Indonesia) in the last year their first EP in 23 seconds, I was of their music is not so convinced that it would have been enough for a mention in this article series. Now her new work appeared, and it has done to me. Four strong pop songs with a distinctly electronic sound wait for the audience. Especially the song I'm not tearing Toys lovers with electronic pop music! Published on 23 Seconds Netlabel”

“Luapan kedua Flyafter adalah rilisan yang baru saja dikeluarkan pada Februari 2011. Terdapat empat track pada EP "Today I'm With You". Track-track tersebut berupa The Wonderstar, Today I'm With You, Back To Children dan I'm Not Toys. Track pertama "The Wonderstar" sangat tepat dijadikan pembuka. Lagu yang akan mengantarkan pendengar untuk mengenal karakter Flyafter sebenarnya. Dan juga tentunya unsur keharmonisan yang menjadikannya mudah untuk diingat. Track lainnya yang dikedepankan "Today I'm With You". Lagu lama yang dibuat versi baru. Pada track ini seakan bereksperimen pada permainan elektronik yang diberikan porsi banyak. Dianggap mempertegas karakter Flyafter berikutnya. Ketika ingin menikmati elektronik bernuansa pop EP ini menjadi salah satu pilihan yang baik.

“This is the second EP from Jakarta´s finest; Flyafter. Beautiful pop melodies carving their way through a dreamlike foggy electronic soundscape. Four strong songs that leaves you begging for more. And a new stronger version of "Today I´m With You". An excellent release from Indonesia. Enjoy!”

“From another of our favourite Netlabels, today we bring you Flyafter from 23seconds.org. A first for the daily dose, a band from Indonesia. Flyafter mix acoustic styles with shoegaze tinged electonica. Their first EP is available for free download from 23seconds.org.”

“The pop of Jakarta trio Flyafter is very playful and percussive, but with a hint of moodiness, especially in the vocals. "Today I'm With You" enchances the percussive element, but the vocals sound as dreamy as ever.”

“Flyafter’s Extended Play was the release I sought out among the label’s many releases, largely because of the art on the cover. An Indonesian band, Flyafter has a decisively mainstream feel, featuring strong synth melodies and a deep appreciation for strong hooks. In many ways, the familiarity plays to the band’s advantage, providing a real alternative to top-40 pop. This is a release that feels a lot like where Ben Gibbard might go given the opportunity to incorporate more synth-like experimentation into Death Cab for Cutie. This is to say that there are some very strong moments on this 25-minute EP, although there is little here that will feel unfamiliar. The band’s remix of Sigur Ros’ “Njósnavélin” was an unexpected surprise, as well as the strong acoustic sound of “Sleep Beside Me;” however, there isn’t anything groundbreaking in the mix, just strong execution of pop song craft.”

“Sounding Flyafter mulai terasa setelah organisasi musik dan label dari Swedia, 23 Seconds dan Inmyroom Records merilis Flyafter EP (Extended Play) pada Juli 2010. Dalam EP ini terdapat empat lagu, yakni Today I'm With You, Make Me Sleep, Sleep Beside Me dan Njosnavelin (Flyafter Remix). Pergerakan Flyafter juga dapat dirasakan pada salah satu radio luar dengan jangkaun siaran Jerman dan Rusia. Darker Radio menobatkan Flyafter sebagai New Comers Artist untuk Agustus 2010 dari hasil vote bulan sebelumnya. Penobatan ini menjadi suatu yang lebih lagi bagi Flyafter. Secara tidak langsung mereka telah mendapatkan tempat bagi penggemarnya di luar negeri. Saat ini Flyafter sedang menyusun lagu-lagunya untuk album repackaged yang akan rilis tidak hanya di Indonesia saja, melainkan juga negara-negara eropa. Termasuk diantaranya lagu The Wonderstar (single) dan Make Me Sleep (EP). Untuk info lainnya dan lagu tersedia di http://www.myspace.com/flyafter”

“Darkerradio is German Radio Podcast. And 395 voters have participated in the vote this month, about 2000 times the podcast and downloaded almost 20,000 times (!!!) the pieces from the charts. Presumably, many of which have uncovered the charts on the VLC-integration, because there the individual pieces are so directly accessible. The Newcomers have to see how you can once again shaken up the charts completely. And this month, some pieces have the potential to: " 'FLYAFTER' wiederum lassen es ruhiger angehen und eignen sich wunderbar zum nebenbei hören ". I am happy to recommend you, as always, the boards of the bands listen completely. If you have suggestions for the Newcomers can also issue you have with us in the Forum. The podcast is inclusive of all slip and margins already online. ”

“Flyafter is a pop band from Jakarta, Indonesia. A very underrated place in the here and now of pop music. The band was formed in 2004 by Hannan Jaya and Rully Fahrezzy and the setting was completed in 2005 by Rully Luandri. The band´s been playing regularly live from time to time ever since. Flyafter´s music is a cool mix of acoustic and electronic blends. Dreamy naked acoustic daydreams engaged with long trippy kraut-rock electronic passages. All mashed up with beautiful pop harmonies. They describe themselves as influenced by Britpop and Norwegian alternative music. And we know what they mean. Although the band´s been around for a while and had played a lot live during their years, the Extended Play EP is their first proper release for the world to know. And now is the time! Another quality release from 23 seconds netlabel. And from Indonesia. Enjoy!”

“Flyafter adalah sekumpulan seniman yang memilih musik sebagai presentasi seninya. Mereka menggambarkan musik mereka dalam suatu penggabungan antara akustik dan elektronik. Awalnya, Flyafter yang berdiri pada tahun 2004 ini, hanya digawangi oleh Rully Fahrezzy dan Hannan Jaya. Saat itu, mereka tampil dan memainkan jenis musik-musik alternatif Inggris dan Norwegia. Hingga akhirnya di tahun 2005, bergabunglah Rully Luandri yang diyakini membuat karakter musik Flyafter menjadi lebih hidup. Dalam “Demo Track” ini, Flyafter menampilkan 3 lagu buatan mereka sendiri dengan bunyi-bunyi instrument yang diaransemen dengan baik, dan juga satu lagu cover dari band Islandia, Sigur Ros dengan judul Njósnavélin. Secara keseluruhan musik mereka sangat bagus dan tidak terdengar ketinggalan jaman. Simak baik-baik “Demo Track” ini kalau anda tidak percaya! (ico/imr)”
