Gusti Irwan Wibowo (28 November 1999 – 15 June 2025), also known as Gustiwiw, was an Indonesian musician, music producer, songwriter, comedian, content creator and entertainer. He was also known for producing music for other prominent Indonesian artists, such as Raisa, Ardhito Pramono, Sal Priadi, Danilla Riyadi, Nadin Amizah, and others.[1]
Wibowo was known for promoting his own music genre, namely "Endikup" (which literally translates to "pleasing to the ears"), by combining dangdut, pop music, orchestra, and traditional Malay music, with unserious and comedic lyrics.[2][3]
He released an album titled Duh Gusti in 2023.[4] He died in 2025 while preparing for his second album,[5] which was released posthumously a month later.[6][7][8]
Gusti was born 28 November 1999 in Bekasi, and graduated from the Cikini College Music Vocational School.[9] He was the son of Timur Priyono, a musician from the 80s, who was known for songs such as "Yang Penting Happy", "Kawin Silang", and "Sedap Betul".[10] Gusti's father forbade him from listening to any Indonesian songs when he was young. Hence, he became influenced by Western artists such as Queen, Whitney Houston, and The Police, with the Greek composer Yanni influencing Gusti's approach to orchestral music.[11]
Releasing various songs since 2015, he rose to fame when he become the music producer for famous Indonesian musicians. Mainly, when he produced songs for Nadin Amizah, Ardhito Pramono and Sal Priadi.[12] He was also active as a radio announcer on Gen FM and a host of podcast programs on YouTube, namely "Kedubes Bekasi" and "Trick Room". All of these programs were hosted with his comedic partner, Nehru Rindra.
Wibowo died in Lembang, Bandung on 15 June 2025, after collapsing in the bathroom hotel due to a heart attack. He was 25.[13]
