#SHOWBIZ: Imran Ajmain celebrates 20-year career with 37-track remix album
KUALA LUMPUR: After two decades in the music industry, singer Imran Ajmain is back with the boldest and most significant project of his career: a remix album titled 'Sila Ambil Perhatian,' released today.
"This album is for everyone – for those who grew up with full albums and also for the TikTok generation," said 44-year-old Imran when met at a private listening party in the capital, recently.
This album isn't just a compilation of past works; it's a fresh and diverse reinterpretation.
Featuring 37 tracks in new versions, the album guides listeners through Imran's musical journey, spanning genres like pop, R&B, acoustic, electronic, and hip hop.
It also includes collaborations with a variety of artistes and producers, such as Ahmadul Amin, Late Nite Frequency, Firwan Johan, Cheryl Samad, and Siti Sairah Tarudin.
"I gave other creators the chance to rework my songs, and the results were truly surprising," Imran said.
"I've wanted to do this for a long time. Twenty years of work, and finally, everything is brought together in one remix album. It's truly a dream come true."
Some of the songs given new life in the album include 'Selamat Ulang Tahun Sayang' and 'Seribu Tahun,' which feature rough demo versions and traditional arrangements by Faliq Auri, incorporating flute and woodwind instruments.
To mark his 20-year milestone in the industry, Imran has also announced an acoustic tour titled 'Mesyuarat Penting.'
The tour is set to kick off in Perak on June 20, 21, and 22, before heading to Terengganu and Johor.
Imran mentioned that these performances will feature more intimate and emotionally resonant live musical arrangements. For more details on the tour, visit
