MUSIC

Kelompok Penerbang Roket, a Jakarta-based rock trio, draws inspiration from the music of the 60s and 70s, citing iconic bands like Black Sabbath, Duo Kribo, Aka, Motörhead, and Led Zeppelin as their influences. Their passion for these legendary acts shines through in their own unique sound, which resonates with fans across generations.


In an exciting continuation of their successful "Meroket Bersama Compass®" campaign, Compass® made its first-ever collaboration with a band, none other than the renowned Kelompok Penerbang Roket. The partnership took place during the Sumpah Pemuda celebration in October 2019, as Compass® teamed up with IM3 Ooredoo, an Indonesian provider, to create an unforgettable musical experience.

 

Each musician contributed their distinct style to the creation of three pairs of shoes with extraordinary designs, reflecting their personal tastes and soulful essence.

Meroket Bersama Compass® tour showcased the artistic prowess of Kelompok Penerbang Roket's.

Rey Marshall's Compass® KPR Design:

Rey Marshall's design for Compass® KPR embodies simplicity with a powerful impact. The shoe features a lightning ornament inspired by Rey's stage identity, the guitar pick. Notably, this collaboration marks the first time Compass® has incorporated graphics on the outsole, adding an exciting visual element to the design.

Vikranta's Compass® KPR Design:

Vikranta's design showcases his preference for a light gray color palette, adorned with snake-patterned leather details and zigzag stitches. The red and white stripe pattern on the insole draws inspiration from Vikranta's favorite shirt, both on and off stage, adding a personal touch to his Compass® KPR design.

JP Patton's Compass® KPR Design:

JP Patton's unique design takes an innovative approach by incorporating synthetic fur in four different shades on the Gazelle® logo. Inspired by JP Patton's bass guitar strap with an animal fur pattern, this design element serves as a distinctive feature. The addition of feminine pink on the strap and outsole further adds a funky 70s vibe to the overall aesthetic.

The highly anticipated Collabonation Meroket Bersama Compass Tour of 2020 spanned five cities and became a captivating tale for the entire Compass® family. With each stop, the tour presented a myriad of unique and quirky experiences, leaving a lasting impression on both the band and their devoted fans.

The collaboration between Compass® and Kelompok Penerbang Roket brought together the realms of music and fashion, resulting in an extraordinary fusion of creativity. Through the Meroket Bersama Compass® campaign, these talented musicians were able to express their personal styles and inspirations through the design of their own Compass® KPR shoes. This collaboration serves as a testament to the power of artistic collaboration and the endless possibilities that arise when different creative worlds collide.
