He also participated in the production of the albums Karya Cipta Guruh Sukarnoputra and Lomba Cipta Lagu Remaja, Prambors.[4] After high school, Addie worked as a clerk at his father's factory but quit after a month due to being 'unable to balance the books'.[1][2] He attempted to pursue his higher education, first at Trisakti University then at Krisnadwipayana University. He however abandoned his studies in 1984 when he was asked by composer Titiek Hamzah to conduct the orchestra in a pop song competition in Viña del Mar, Chile to perform her song which won second place at the competition.[2]
In 1982 Addie produced Vina Panduwinata's album, Citra Pesona (Charm Image).[5] In 1984 he was approached by Chrisye, one of his idols,[4] and asked to produce the singer's next album.

The resulting album, Sendiri, which featured piano, cor anglais went on to win a BASF Award for best selling album.[6] That same year he went to Ohio to take a course on recording engineering.[2]
