The newest release by Pandu Hitomo is the Post-Grunge or Alternative Rock song “Mojang Supremacy”. The song is about a young man who wants to impress and attract the affection of a young unwed woman. Single women are called ‘Mojang’ in the Sundanese language which is predominantly spoken in West Java.

The psychedelic harmonies in this Alternative Pop song derive from Hutomo’s Indonesian home and consequently help creating a unique and mesmerizing sound.
