songs on the album; 2) Identify the main themes, messages, and writing styles used in the
lyrics; 3) Coding and categorizing data based on themes, writing style and other relevant
elements; 4) Analysis and interpretation of data to reveal the artistic ideas promoted by
Inthesky through his lyrics. In addition, music analysis methods are used to examine the
musical elements in the album composition. The steps in music analysis include: 1) Indepth
understanding of musical elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, musical
structure and use of instruments; 2) Listening and analyzing the songs in the album to
identify and note the musical elements used by Inthesky; 3) Interpretation and
understanding of the influence and uniqueness of these musical elements in creating the
quality of the music in the album. Inthesky's Extended Play album uses a combined
approach to literary theory and music analysis. First, analysis of the song texts was
carried out by adopting the theory of literary hermeneutics and semiotics. Themes,
narratives, and messages in the lyrics are outlined to reveal the meaning of the text. The
results of this study are expected to provide an in-depth understanding of the combination
of song lyrics, musical composition, and the relationship of meaning between the two in
the context of Inthesky "Extended Play" album. | en_US |
