Your lovely Story Telling Pop band | heir debut album My Diary contains 13 songs which were written sequentially based on their story telling concept.

The concept was illustrated by Mocca through a girl’s point of view who frequently wrote her daily experiences into a diary.

The album started with a song: ‘Once upon a time’ as an intro, and followed by her first encounter with her secret admirer (song: secret admirer), then after a long hesitation (twist me around, what if) she decided to get steady with the boy (me & my boyfriend). Thus, they caught up in a fight (telephone), got broke up (when the moonlight shine), and in the end they understood that they weren’t meant for each other (Rain will fall, Life keeps on turning).

Every event were signified by different beat according to the girl’s mood. There are waltz, bossanova, rock n roll even 70’s disco beat.
All songs are written in English, therefore most part of the world could understand the lyrics and it’ll alleviate mocca’s way to go international.
In their live performance mocca is also supported by 2 (two) additional players (keyboards and trumpet).

MALIQ & D'Essentials adalah sebuah grup musik beraliran jazz yang berasal dari Jakarta, Indonesia. MALIQ adalah kepanjangan dari Music And Live Instrument Quality. Sejak penampilan pada pergelaran Jakarta International Jazz Festival 2005, popularitas mereka semakin meningkat terutama di kalangan anak muda Jakarta.

Perpaduan bahasa Indonesia dan bahasa Inggris dalam lagu-lagunya menjadi salah satu andalan khas mereka. Musik yang dimainkannya khas dan kadang tidak terkesan seperti lagu-lagu populer Indonesia pada umumnya.

Di sepanjang kariernya, MALIQ & D'Essentials sudah mengeluarkan enam album: 1st, Free Your Mind, Mata Hati Telinga, The Beginning Of A Beautiful Life, Sriwedari dan Musik Pop.

I share what I feel I wanna share. I sing from heart, and for people who have hearts:)
