Abstract

Beautiful Island of the Gods is a song inspired by the beauty of the island of Bali. This song tells about the beauty, beauty, and natural beauty of Bali. Through this song the writer tries to pour out his heart and thoughts about the author's opinion on the island of Bali. The lyrics of the songs are in Indonesian as well as the choice of words and tones used are of great concern.
 The guitar playing in this song is adjusted to the effects used in order to support the message the writer wants to convey to listeners. In this song, especially the guitar solo using a blues scale, the writer wants to mix cultural and modern nuances. A touch of distortion emphasizes the dynamics and the use of the blues scale balances between firm and sweet tones which makes for a pleasant melody to listen to. As for the selection of chords used in the verse, pre chorus, and chorus, use simple chords so that they go in the same direction as the guitar solo in the interlude section.
 One of the musicians the writer has inspired is John Mayer, because some of the songs he created are major nuanced songs but his guitar solo uses a minor blues scale, one of which is a song called Gravity. This is what made the writer interested in using the blues scale in the guitar solo of the song Indah Pulau Dewata.
