Analisis Naratif dan Struktur Musik dalam Lagu Mendarah oleh Nadin Amizah
Keywords:
Mendarah, Nadin Amizah, Song lyrics, Popular music, Music analysisAbstract
This study aims to reveal the emotional and aesthetic representations in Nadin Amizah's song ‘Mendarah’ through the integration of lyrical narrative and musical structure. A qualitative approach was used with content analysis to explore the latent meanings contained in the lyrics and musical expressions. Data were collected through official lyrics documentation, audio recordings, live performances, and secondary sources such as articles and music reviews. The analysis was conducted by categorising symbols, metaphors, and musical structures, including melody, harmony, tempo, and timbre. The results of the study show that ‘Mendarah’ combines poetic lyrics and minimalist musical compositions based on minor chords, slow tempo, and soft dynamics that create a melancholic and reflective atmosphere. This narrative-musical integration produces a deep emotional experience, affirming the function of music as a medium for inner reflection and therapeutic expression in the context of Indonesian popular music.
