maco marets is known for its style of minimalist tracks with restrained and gentle tones of rap, and its new single "Kariyado" is the first time in four years that maco marets has worked with Riki Azuma (Small Circle of Friends / Studio 75), who has trackmade and produced his debut album "Orang. Pendek" and three other albums in the past, and is a song that is truly a return to the roots for maco marets.
The lyric, sung over a soft piano loop, describes the state of life in flux and the flow of time, as in the song title "Kariyado" = "temporary lodging". The lyric "This is a temporary lodging / Someday I'm going to leave." ...... sings in a mumbled voice, depicting the mood of our somewhat floating days in the post-COVID era, with no place to go. The hook part is sung by singer Buoy, a regular participant in maco marets' works, who adds her voice to the chorus. Her voice adds a delicate touch to the song.
