As a kid in Jakarta, Jordan Susanto thought he wanted to be a filmmaker when he grew up, until he realized what he actually was obsessed with was the soundtrack. Inspired by classic soul music of the ’60s and ’70s, the Indonesian singer’s 2024 debut album, Jordan, modernized the vintage sound with big pop hooks and diaristic lyrics. His single “Senopati in the Rain,” an ode to cozy nights on the couch, was a mainstay on Shazam charts across Asia after the album’s release in August, coasting at No. 1 for 12 days in the Philippines.
