Dear Murid2 Mr. Jon
The Ost (Original Soundtrack) of Brownies
Bisa Saja was chosen as the first single of the album and the theme song of
Brownies because the lyrics reflect the story in the movie. Budjana of GIGI
demonstrates his skill in playing an acoustic guitar in Cinta Terakhir. Three
other brand new songs, Dilemma, Jangan Bilang Pacarku, and Semua Orang Berhak
Mendapat Rasa Bahagia, give supporting nuances to the flow of the movie. GIGI
composed them by imagining how the scenes would look like based on the
screenplay.
When Hanung Bramantyo (the director) and Dewa Budjana of GIGI chatted, Budjana
expressed his interest in making a soundtrack album. Then, he recommended a few
GIGI songs, which the producer accepted because of the chemistry they created
with the movie.
Since GIGI could provide a variety of colors to add all kinds of musical
nuances to enrich the movie, the producers deemed it unnecessary to find other
musicians to complete the original soundtrack of Brownies.
Armand Maulana (vocalist), I Gede Dewa Budjana (guitarist), Thomas Ramadhan
(bass player), and Gusti Erhandy (drums-stand-in player for Budhi Haryono) put
a lot of effort into this album. As a result, they've created a perfect blend of
movies and songs that make Brownies tastier.
It’s always fun to have a piece of brownies in your mouth but having it on your
stereo is more entertaining. No movie is perfect without a musical score and
Ost. of Brownies has proved it excellently.

The Pros and Cons Of
Video Games
Nowadays, the video games industry is developing rapidly. It becomes a
multi-billion dollar industry. Video games have become an important part not
only in the children’s lives but also the adults’. Nevertheless, there is an
argument about whether video games bring good or bad influences on children.
People
who have a pro argument claim that video games give a lot of benefits? Playing
video games is a good way to kill children’s boredom. It can refresh the
children’s mind after a tiring school day. Moreover, they also argue that video
games can trigger children to be more creative because the games provide
challenging ways to win. In other words, they believe that video games can
actually sharpen a human’s brain.
Conversely,
some people believe that video games make children lazy. They argue that
playing video games is addictive. As a consequence, most of the children prefer
playing video games to studying. These children find it hard to concentrate on
their studies because they always think about how to spend more time playing
video games. In fact, there are also some children who skip their
extracurricular lessons, just because they want to play video games. In
addition, most of the video games often expose too much violence. Two years ago
in the USA, for example, a student shot his teacher and some of his friends.
Newspapers said that the boy was deeply influenced by the actions in the video
games.
It
is obvious that video games have more disadvantages than advantages. Therefore,
parents should be very careful in selecting the appropriate games for their
children.
