Timeline

1954

Jockie Soerjoprajogo (Perfected Spelling: Yockie Suryoprayogo; 14 September 1954 – 5 February 2018) was an Indonesian musician and songwriter.

Jockie began his musical career while a junior high school student in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan.

Jockie was born in Demak, Central Java on 14 September 1954.

After beginning his education in Demak, he went to Semarang near the end of his primary years to finish elementary school.

His middle school education was in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan; while there he joined the local band Safira.

Most of his musical skills were self-taught, although he did study composition under Muchtar Embut and musical notation under Idris Sardi.

After middle school, Jockie moved to Jakarta and joined with several acts there, before moving to Surabaya, East Java and joining Jaguar, led by Mickey Makelbach.

He eventually finished high school in Malang and moved back to Jakarta.

1973

After working with bands in Jakarta and Surabaya, in 1973, he joined with Ahmad Albar, Donny Fattah and Ludwig Leeman to form God Bless; he would remain with this band intermittently until the 2000s.

Jockie also worked with artists such as Chrisye and Iwan Fals, ultimately writing two songs—"Kehidupan" ("Life") and "Kesaksian" ("Witness")—that were listed by Rolling Stone Indonesia as among the best Indonesian songs of all time.

In 1973, he joined with Ahmad Albar, Donny Fattah and Ludwig Leeman to form God Bless; their first concert was in Taman Ismail Marzuki in May 1973.

1975

He split from the band for a brief time to found the bands Giant Step in Bandung and Double Zero in Malang, but returned in early 1975.

During this period he was heavily into drugs, once stealing and selling a ring belonging to songwriter Harry Roesli to fuel his habit.

1976

In 1976 Jockie joined the committee for Prambors FM's Teenage Song Writing Competition.

Along with Prambors head Imran Amir, he unsuccessfully approached Chrisye to ask him to sing the song "Lilin-Lilin Kecil" ("Small Candles"); when Chrisye was convinced to record the single by Sys NS, Jockie handled the arrangement.

The following year, Jockie collaborated with Chrisye for a new album, Jurang Pemisah (Dividing Canyon); Chrisye provided vocals for seven songs while Jockie provided the vocals for two and wrote several more.

1977

In 1977 Jockie joined with Chrisye and Eros Djarot to record the soundtrack to Badai Pasti Berlalu, directed by Teguh Karya.

After the film's success, the soundtrack was rerecorded in Pluit, North Jakarta over a period of 21 days and sold as a soundtrack album.

The album, also titled Badai Pasti Berlalu, went on to sell 9 million copies over the next sixteen years.

1978

In 1978 he released his first solo album, Musik Saya adalah Saya (My Music is Me).

This was followed by four more albums over the next 15 years, Yang Terhilang Lepas (Free and Missing), Pernyataan (Statement), Penantian (Waiting), and Selamat Jalan Kekasih (Goodbye Dear).

1979

Jockie again worked with Chrisye for the 1979 album Percik Pesona, for which he wrote several songs.

The album was a critical and commercial failure, with critics writing that it was too much like Badai Pasti Berlalu.

1982

His composition "Kehidupan" ("Life"), from God Bless' album Semut Hitam was ranked 8th, while "Kesaksian" ("Witness"), from Iwan Fals' album Kantata Takwa was ranked 82nd.

Jockie was married first to Indah Soekotjo and had two children.

Then they divorced and Jockie married Tiwi Puspitasari and also had two children.

He had four children in total.

1983

Beginning in 1983, Jockie joined with Chrisye and Djarot to produce a trilogy of albums, Resesi (Recession; 1983), Metropolitan (1983), and Nona (Miss; 1984); the albums all went platinum.

1988

Meanwhile, with God Bless he released Semut Hitam (Black Ants; 1988), Raksasa (Monster; 1989), and Apa Kabar? (What's Up?; 1997).

1990

During the early 1990s, Jockie joined with Iwan Fals' band Swami to record Kantata Takwa (Cantata of Taqwa).

He and the band would often clash over creative differences, but reportedly were willing to compromise.

1993

In 1993 he released another solo album, Suket (Grass); he also arranged the music for the album.

In it he tried to give social commentary from his observations, a technique previously used by Iwan Fals.

2003

In 2003 he left God Bless again after creative differences; in an October 2011 Facebook post, he wrote that he had been forced to leave the group and that he was outraged that the band continued to play his songs without his permission.

In a later interview with Kompas, he stated that lead singer Ahmad Albar had pulled a gun on him when debating the latter's drug use.

Guitarist Ian Antono confirmed that a pistol was involved, but he thought it could be a toy; he stated that the argument flared up when Jockie insulted Albar's family.

2009

Jockie collaborated with numerous artists in October 2009 to put on a tribute concert to Chrisye.

In December 2009, Rolling Stone Indonesia selected two of Jockie's songs as being among the 150 best Indonesian songs of all time.

2010

Together with Garin Nugroho, in 2010 Jockie helped produce the musical Diana for the Kompas 45th anniversary.

For the production, a tribute to Koes Plus, Jockie remastered 20 of their songs.
