Some songs emerge almost instantly, while others need time to find their moment. “Lumrah Cinta,” the heartfelt ballad by Syamel and Aepul Roza, is one of those rare tracks that spent nearly seven years waiting for the right time – and the right voice – to bring it to life.
Enter Puteri Khareeza, whose emotional performance has turned this long-awaited collaboration into an anthem for the heartbroken, the hopeful, and everyone in between.
This is the perfect comeback song for those who’ve loved, lost, and healed – and it’s about time! Released under Alternate Records, “Lumrah Cinta” is a pop ballad that hits all the right notes: heartbreak, resilience, and the courage to love again.
What’s especially cool about this release is that it’s not just about a song finally seeing the light of day. This marks a major milestone for the artists involved – it’s been years since Syamel and Aepul Roza collaborated on a track. In fact, this is their first collab since 2019! And it’s clear from the chemistry between the duo that they’ve got something truly special here.
The Journey Of “Lumrah Cinta”
It’s a true story of waiting and patience. Syamel originally penned the melody for “Lumrah Cinta” around seven years ago, but the track wasn’t fully realised until it found its perfect match in Puteri Khareeza. According to Aepul Roza, who co-wrote the song, “This track needed time to mature. It was waiting for the right artist to do it justice, and now we’ve found her.”
What’s even more impressive is that the song wasn’t just dusted off and released. There was a delicate process of reworking the lyrics and tweaking the melody to give it a new life that resonates with listeners today. Aepul shared, “The combination of our writing and Syamel’s melody creates an emotional depth that makes this song stand out, and we’re proud of how it turned out.”
Puteri Khareeza’s Breakthrough Moment
And then, there’s Puteri Khareeza. Known for her stunning vocals, she brings “Lumrah Cinta” to life with an emotional intensity that’s simply impossible to ignore. “Recording this song was both exciting and nerve-wracking,” Khareeza admits. “Syamel and Aepul are legends in the industry, so to be able to work with them on this track was such an honour.”
She continues, “The challenge was definitely in capturing the emotion in every lyric. The demo was originally recorded by Syamel himself, so I had to bring my A-game to match the intensity of that performance.” Despite the pressure, Khareeza nailed it, completing her recording in just two hours. If that doesn’t show her talent, I don’t know what will!
A Song For Broken Hearts
In a world full of songs that come and go, “Lumrah Cinta” feels like one that will stand the test of time. It’s a ballad that’s just as much about healing as it is about heartbreak – and given its poignant lyrics and soothing melody, it’s no wonder that it’s already making waves in the local music scene.
“Lumrah Cinta” is now available on all major platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music, so you’ve got no excuse not to listen!
