Percik Pesona was Chrisye's second solo album and fifth album overall. It was produced after the massive success of Chrisye's debut solo album Sabda Alam (Nature's Order) and soon after the death of Amin Widjaja, one of the founders of Musica Studios. Songwriting was handled by Chrisye, Jockie Soerjoprajogo, and Guruh Soekarnoputra. Backing vocals were provided by rising star Rafika Duri. Chrisye, although shocked by Amin's passing and feeling little passion for the music, provided the vocals, mixing pop and jazz; he also hit high notes on "Kehidupanku" ("My Life').
