The highly-anticipated collaboration between Korean-American singer-songwriter eaJ (also known as Jae Park) and celebrated Indonesian artist Hindia has finally arrived. Their new single, “Right Where You Left Me,” is now available on all major streaming platforms.
Jae, a longtime admirer of Hindia’s work, initiated this exciting project through a direct message, leading to the creation of a stunning and upbeat rock-pop track. Hindia’s production expertise and vocals blend seamlessly with Jae’s signature catchy pop melodies, resulting in a memorable collaboration.
“Right Where You Left Me” is written from a flipped perspective, juxtaposing its upbeat, rocky sound with sad but hopeful lyrics. Jae explains, “I don’t want to ruin the magic of relatability for the listener, so I’ll be as specific as I can be without touching on that fine line. It is written from the perspective of someone who is waiting for a loved one to come back from an emotional journey of self-discovery. They understand that life isn’t a movie and that things change from time to time. With a big heart of understanding and wanting to be of help for the person more so than oneself, they sacrifice their own emotional well-being to further encourage the other to explore as much as possible, with the reassurance that they will be right where they left them, if they choose to return.”
Hindia adds, “I received notifications from people saying that eaJ found my music during one of his livestream sessions and that he loved it. He then reached out to me on DM. We started exchanging songs and we agreed to work on this song. Jae is very kind, appreciative, and open to so many ideas. For me, the song is about having conversations with some version of yourself that’s locked out of your waking life. When I saw the music video for the song, it affirmed what the song meant to me as well.”
