AM PM (stylized as AM:PM) is the debut extended play by Indonesian singer-songwriter Stephanie Poetri. It was released on 12 March 2021 by Infinite Thrills, 88rising, and 12Tone Music.[1]

Background[edit]

AM:PM was composed in 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2][3] The title AM:PM refers to the two contrasting themes featured throughout the project: the brightness of day and the darkness of night. In an interview with NME, Poetri stated,[4]

"I had a couple of really early morning and really late-night sessions to line up my schedule with America, and that somehow affected the music I had written. It became very apparent that there were very distinct and different vibes. At first, I was a little confused as to how I would fit all of the songs into one EP and have it flow properly, and then we realised that three songs sounded very morning-like and the other three sounded more suited to the night."

Release[edit]

The project's first single, "Selfish", was released on 1 December 2020.[5] The second single, "How We Used To", was released on 14 January 2021.[6] The third single, "IRL", was released on 11 February 2021.[7] All three singles were accompanied with music videos.

Alongside the release of the EP on 12 March 2021, Poetri released a music video for "Paranoia."[8]
