IMAGICA MUSIC COMMUNITY

Meet the duo

2008-10-20T21:06:00.000-07:00

The name Botaq & Ayid might sounds unfamiliar among independent music lovers but the fact is both of the names are the main backbone of 2 most rated bands in Shah Alam and Klang Valley. The frontman also founder of the band called Lydias Diery has been rocking with his band for more than 50 stages around peninsula since 2005. Plus, he’s the man behind our community i.e. Imagica Music Community that exposed a lot of new bands/musicians in the indie scene. Not just that, he’s the also the person accountable for the pre-launch album’s trilogy for the most rated local retro band i.e. The Times last March 2008.

To those music lovers stay in Klang might hear the name of Sonic Mush who most of the time grabbed top 3 places in every Battle of The Bands happened in Klang. Previously, Ayid was the singer of Sonic Mush who then changed his position as the drummer of the band. He was 2 times entitled as the best vocalist in Karnival Universiti Malaya Battle of The Bands 2006 and Klang Youth Fest 2007.

As the article being noted, both Botaq & Ayid has just finished their first duo performance for the launching of new Burger King Outlet in Shah Alam.

“Ayid and I were town buddies in Shah Alam and at the beginning we’re just having fun ‘acousticing’ together each time I hang out at Ayid’s home. Until one day, I proposed an idea to Ayid to come out with an acoustic stuff and Ayid agreed with the idea,” explained Botaq.

“We then wrote songs in which I’m more influenced to Sweedish Pop style while Ayid more on UK band and a bit of soft grunge. So, in this duo, u may hear Pop, Rock N Roll, Grunge and we also try to infuse a bit of Irama Malaysia elements in our duo project. All these we did in acoustic style without drum and any guitar efx,” added Botaq.

More interesting in this is that both Botaq and Ayid duet to song their songs where Ayid’s voice alike to Eddie Vadder of Pearl Jam blended together with Botaq’s poppish voice that may goose bump you guys out there.

“As for now, we already have 6 songs but unfortunately none of these songs being recorded properly except for one song entitled Kisah Cinta Nasi Lemak where we do a homemade record as a promo for people out there to get know about our music. Sorry for the quality of the sounds that’s sooooooo rare….. hehehehehee”

INTRODUCTION:

‘We are creating magic for the nation and creating magic for our name’

Success has so much to do with a sense of vision – the ability to look forward with confidence and purpose and to reflect with pride on real achievements.

The IMAGICA story charts the evolution of a visionary attitude, a style of business with responsiveness to changing markets, client needs and times.

This started since 2006, when Imagica Magic Resources broke ground for its operation as a freelance art community under the name of Imagica Music Community.

We have since grown from strength to strength over the years and have been involved in a broad range of entertainment projects – event organizers, event management, PA system and music equipment rental service, photography service, public relations as well as printing agent.

Whatever the job demands, IMAGICA delivers. In the process the company has not just created many of entertainment projects, but has formulated the deliver techniques and procedures that have been needed to make them successful.

IMAGICA is not an organization that rests on its past successes. It is constantly evolving, adapting and refining its services, on the lookout for new frontiers and opportunities, fostering and sustaining ongoing relationships with clients and partners.

We’re dedicated at all times to do the best job we possibly can – to perform, to deliver and to exceed expectations. Everything we serve is aimed toward making us a better company.

There are two key elements to the IMAGICA approach. Both are integral to an ongoing objective to create better, more cost effective and productive business solutions.

The first of these key elements is communication, understanding the clients’ needs, ensuring clear and open channels of communication to progress the project with a minimum of fuss and to facilitate fast and efficient problem solving, if and when the need arises.

The other key factor is flexibility. IMAGICA provides a strong and focused project management team while providing clients and partners with variety in their preferred method of delivery.

OUR TEAM:

‘We always believe success comes with support and teamwork’’

Fundamental to the success of Imagica Magic Resources is the firm support of our IMAGICA team. Our teamwork lends a personal touch to help us a steady climb toward excellence.

Happy 2008!!

2008-01-03T19:24:00.000-08:00

Yo.. Its been a long time for me to update this blog. Honestly, im not into blogging. Im more on myspace. hehehehehe...

Anyway just want to wish u guys a NICE 2008!!!

This year we, iMAGICA team had planned a few projects to be done this year. But this year we'r more focusing on Indie/Alternative/Acoustic music. In other words, we planned to push this kind of music.

Previously, yuppp... our objective is try to provide platform to all newcomers in our Indie Scene, regardless, what kind of music. But, rite now we can see dat there's a load of labels, even clothing label, have shined back our scene. Tabik springggg sikit to all these team who try to shine up our scene!!! So, we think, we should moved to another phase.

Hmmmm...why indie? why alternative? why acoustic? Why??? Why???

As for us, those kind of music can be categorised as an easy listening stuff. The purpose is to create a scene in which everyone can accept the music. How to explain ek???

Ok...
as we can see, most crowds who attend a gig is guy... how many pretty chics we can see in a gig? And most people who came to a gig are Malay people... Wheres the Chinese and the Indians go?

Diorang tak suka music ka? How can.......

As what we'v discoverd, those people prefer like to hang out at a party or at any relaxing place.

In a party, what kind of music they play? A kind of music which can be accepted by everyone, rite?

We are not being offense with those bands which play heavy music or anymusic relate to it.

It just we'r trying to create a scene in which everyone can support and comfort with it. So, as our 1st step this year, we r focusing on thse kind of music.

These are our 2008 objectives!!!

To gather all peoples, regardless what sex u are, what race u are as log as it creates a supportive spirits among us!!!

Y2K live in Klang

2007-11-08T22:30:00.000-08:00

Wanna see this punk rock guy gigging??? This 17th November 2007 , Tunestone Entertainment, 31c Lorong Kepayang Off Jalan Meru 4 Klang. Admission will be RM15.

Congrato and salute to Y2K!!!

2007-11-08T22:27:00.000-08:00

Masked punk rock band Y2K triumphed at Malaysia’s first-ever GBOB Challenge National Finals held on November 3 at Kuala Lumpur’s filled-to-capacity Club 18. Aside from the honour of representing Malaysia at the World Finals in London, Y2K also walked away with RM50,000 Ringgit Malaysia (approximately USD15,000) and inclusion in a commemorative GBOB Challenge Malaysia 2007 compilation album to be produced by Life Records.

Old school rockers Revenge came in close second in their full hard rock and heavy metal glory to clinch the RM10,000 (approximately USD3,000) Ringgit Malaysia runner up cash prize. The Malaysian leg was concluded after a six-month search that has seen over 65 bands registering for the national competition and where 15 remained to battle it out over two successive nights of preliminaries held on November 1 & 2, also at Club 18. Y2K first blasted onto the local indie music scene in 2002 with each member bringing their unique influences and origins into the mix, fusing genres and languages, the group still retain the pop-punk ethos. Y2K recently finished their debut album, “Pizza Salsa”, a blistering barrage of pop, punk rock, hip-hop, metal and ska in English, Malay, French and Japanese. Y2K have been a staple of the Malaysian music scene since their formation, busily playing show after show throughout Kuala Lumpur, Terrenganu, Penang, Melaka, Johor Bahru and Singapore, building up their reputation as excellent showmen. They performed at the Fat Festival in Thailand, the Duduluran Rock Fest in Bandung, Indonesia and the last Rock the World Festival.

So, me accept this offer.

NURUL TANYA LOQUE BUTTER PLAK PASAL SCENE UNDERGROUND MALAYSIA

2007-01-30T12:08:00.000-08:00

CUBA KITE COMPAREKAN PENDAPAT ANTARA JOE KIDD DAN LOQUE PASAL SCENE UNDERGROUND MALAYSIA:

-Siapakah anda (band/perseorangan), asal, pekerjaan dan menetap di mana?
saya loQue.pemain gitar/penulis lagu/penerbit utk Butterfingers dan skrang menetap d boston belajar jurusan music synth dan composition di berklee college of music.

-Boleh ceritakan perjalanan sejarah dunia muzik anda? Dari awal hingga sekarang.
saya mula berjinak dgn gitar sejak umur 13 thn.membuat rakaman pertama pada tahun 1994.membuat album pertama butterfingers pada tahun1996, 1.2 milligrams.
1997- butter worth pushful
1999-transcendence
2001-Malaynuem
2005-Slamat tinggal dunia.
skrang bersiap sedia utk studio album butters ke6 dan juga project2 sambilan yg lain, spt MONOLOQUe.

-Apakah yang menyebabkan anda berjaya di dalam muzik seperti sekarang?
saya belum lagi berjaya.kerana saya tidak pernah puas dgn pencapaian saya. mungkin saya akan menyerah kalah suatu hari nanti.barangkali.

-Bagaimana scene underground pada awal pembabitan anda?
seperti bayi yg . merangkak sedang belajar berjalan.

-Bagaimana scene underground sekarang anda lihat?
seperti budak belasan tahun yg. inginkan kebebasan.

-Saya pernah terbaca di internet, tentang tulisan Joe Kid Carburetor Dung mengenai tapak permulaan seni di Central Market. Boleh ceritakan apa yang berlaku sebenarnya di Central Market? ( kalau tak boleh jawab, abaikan soalan ni)
central market boleh dkatakan tempat bertemu kelompok2 pemuda yg inginkan kelainan dlm muzik/falsafah/ideology suatu ketika dahulu.dgn itu tercetuslah label'underground' yg digembargemburkan skrang...

-Saya selalu mendengar mengenai konsep DIY di dalam scene underground.Boleh ceritakan mengenai konsep DIY (do it yourself) di scene underground?
konsep BUAT SENDIRI.

-Bagaimana DIY pada scene underground sekarang?
smakin kukuh, tapi banyak yg terpesong dari konsep DIY itu sebenarnye. tapi manusia memang mcm tu. jadi biarkan lah.pada saya, saya cuma lebih cenderung dlm bidang muzik dan sedikit tentang nasionalisme.

-Pada satu masa dahulu di dalam scene underground, saya pernah terbaca scene underground Malaysia telah berpecah, tidak unite, berlakunya perpecahan di kalangan undergrounders. Kenapa itu berlaku? Pada pandangan anda, adakah scene underground sekarang unite atau tidak?
seperti bangsa melayu itu sendiri.. susah nak bersatu. mungkin sudah menjadi adat kita mcm tu. tapi siapa yg sedar kena berbuat sesuatu, kalau tak nescaya djajah lagi skali.

-Pada zaman awal pembabitan anda di dalam scene underground, bagaimana anda memperkenalkan muzik anda kepada umum?
saya percaya pada diri sendiri danmuzik yg hendak diketengahkan walaupun pada masa tu saya gila tiru gaya Nirvana.(hanya pada masa tu).

-Saya pernah terdengar pada tahun 1995 – 1999 banyak band underground Malaysia pernah membuat persembahan di luar Malaysia dan album terjual di luar, sedangkan ketika itu, kemudahan seperti myspace dan email tidak luas dipergunakan. Bagaimana ketika itu scene underground boleh begitu meriah sehingga ke peringkat luar?
saya rasa itu mungkin khabar 2 angin yg indah khabar dari rupa. mungkin ada tapi saya kurang ariff pasal perkara ini.

-Pada pendapat anda, bagaimana untuk menjadi sebuah band yang bagus dan dikenali?
berani membuat sesuatu yg asli dan lain dari lain sambil mengekalkan kesegaran.

-Pada pendapat anda, muzik Malaysia secara menyeluruh, kenapa muzik Malaysia tidak mampu ke luar?
saya rasa mungkin sebab kita terlampau fokus kat luar, padahal dlm negara sendiri kita tak mampu menguasainya 100%... akhirnya menjadi mangsa gergasi globalisasi spt MTV dan sebagainya..

-pada pendapat anda, bagaimana untuk memperkenalkan muzik Malaysia ke luar?
muzik Malaysia yg cuma terdapat di malaysia yg aneh kepada dunia luar.dan ia akan mengambil masa.kena mulakan skrnag.

NURUL TANYA JOE KIDD PASAL SCENE UNDERGROUND MALAYSIA

2007-01-23T10:11:00.000-08:00

INTERVIEW | January 23rd 2007
questions by Nurul Aisyah
all answers by Joe Kidd

- Siapakah anda (band/perseorangan), asal, pekerjaan dan menetap di mana?

Joe, pemain gitar Carburetor Dung. Campuran Kelantan dan Terengganu. Web dan print designer, juga penulis sambilan. Menetap di KL.

- Boleh ceritakan perjalanan sejarah dunia muzik anda? Dari awal hingga sekarang.

Diperkenalkan dengan muzik serta "budaya serpihan" atau "subculture" punk ketika berumur 13 tahun; Mula berjinak dengan pelbagai jenis musik semenjak itu termasuk reggae, electronics, experimental, jazz, blues dan seterusnya. Mula main muzik bersama band sendiri sekitar umur 25 tahun.

- Apakah yang menyebabkan anda berjaya di dalam muzik seperti sekarang?

Kejayaan kami bukannya dari segi duit ataupun keselesaan material (kami semua mempunyai pekerjaan masing-masing untuk carimakan), ianya lebih condong kepada personal satisfaction dan juga keupayaan untuk kami berdikari tanpa rantaian syarikat rakaman korporat dan juga bergiat jauh dari pelbagai sifat-sifat negatif serta bacul yang ada dipersada industri muzik tempatan. Dari segi nilai-nilai tersebut, ya, kami amat berjaya. Kenapa? Antara sebab utama, D.I.Y. Kedua, kami degil. Ketiga, kami jalani aktiviti kami atas kehendak kami sendiri dan bukan atas arahan pihak luaran. Ianya satu "kemerdekaan" yang total untuk karya kami.

- Bagaimana scene underground pada awal pembabitan anda?

Dulu hanya ada sekerat, sekarang ribu-ribuan. Dulu hanya di setengah-setengah tempat, sekarang merata.

- Bagaimana scene underground sekarang anda lihat?

Band banyak, tapi kualitinya kurang. Kebanyakkan pemuzik sekarang tidak berani cuba menapak atau membawa arah muzik atau intisari yang baru. Kebanyakkannya hanya sekadar meniru apa yang dah ada, terutama trend-trend masa kini yang popular. Minda kebanyakkan orang muda sekarang juga tidak kritikal, dengan itu warna-warni yang mereka hidangkan agak hambar serta cetek; tidak menghambat pendengar supaya berfikir atau menghayati kermurnian santapan seni.

- Saya pernah terbaca di internet, tentang tulisan Joe Kidd Carburetor Dung mengenai tapak permulaan seni di Central Market. Boleh ceritakan apa yang berlaku sebenarnya di Central Market? (kalau tak boleh jawab, abaikan soalan ni)

Central Market adalah tempat utama untuk kami yang aktif didalam muzik underground berkumpul. Ianya bermula sekitar 1987/88. Boleh dikatakan semua yang aktif didalam dunia muzik kami semuanya lepak di CM, bertahun-tahun, beberapa genrasi, sehingga sebuah restoran yang kami guna untuk berjumpa tutup kedai awal tahun lepas.

- Saya selalu mendengar mengenai konsep DIY di dalam scene underground. Boleh ceritakan mengenai konsep DIY (do it yourself) di scene underground?

D.I.Y. Bikin sendiri. Tanpa campur-tangan pihak industri muzik atau yang lain yang kebanyakkannya hanya "menolong" untuk mengaut keuntungan yang selalunya berat sebelah. Ada pelbagai bentuk DIY yang dibawa; ada jenis DIY yang bikin-sendiri tapi masih menggunakan setengah pihak industri muzik yang ada untuk publisiti dan juga distribusi. Ada juga yang langsung 200% DIY tanpa campur-tangan apa saja yang ada. Dan pelbagai variasi diantara kedua yang disebut.

Ianya pilihan diri masing-masing dan juga mengikut nilai-nilai yang dipegang oleh diri masing-masing. Yang penting, budaya DIY membangun semangat diri untuk mencapai apa saja yang diimpikan secara usaha atau kerah tenaga sendiri dan bukan bergantung pada orang lain. Ianya menjana diri kita untuk terus maju tanpa tongkat-tongkat yang sebenarnya adalah pagar-pagar yang menyekat kebebasan kita berkarya secara jujur.

- Bagaimana DIY pada scene underground sekarang?

DIY undergound di Malaysia sentiasa membangun dengan pesat, banyak keluaran kreativiti bikin sendiri tanpa campur-tangan luaran dan juga mereka jauh dari eksploitasi industri muzik yang hanya semata ingin mengaut keuntungan tanpa menghiraukan hak-hak pemuzik sebagai artis dan sebagainya. Banyak antara kita yang terkenal diseluruh dunia, mengeluarkan rakaman diserata, termasuk Jepun, Eropah dan Amerika Utara. Ada juga yang telah mejelajah Eropah, Indonesia, Thailand, Jepun, Australia dan seterusnya. Ini semua sudah menjadi kebiasaaan didunia DIY, ianya tidak lagi dipandang sebagai sesuatu yang "special".

- Pada satu masa dahulu di dalam scene underground, saya pernah terbaca scene underground Malaysia telah berpecah, tidak unite, berlakunya perpecahan di kalangan undergrounders. Kenapa itu berlaku? Pada pandangan anda, adakah scene underground sekarang unite atau tidak?

Seperti mana-mana perkumpulan masyarakat yang lain, ada perbalahan dan ada juga persetujuan. Ketika dulu scene kami kecil, sekarang ianya amat besar, dengan pelbagai pandangan, ide-ide dan pegangan yang jauh berbeda; oleh itu perpecahan adalah sesuatu yang tidak boleh dielakkan. Ianya perkara yang sememangnya normal dimana-mana sahaja.

- Pada zaman awal pembabitan anda di dalam scene underground, bagaimana anda memperkenalkan muzik anda kepada umum?

Sebenarnya dulu ianya lebih dengan cara "word of mouth", panggil kawan dengar lagu-lagu oleh band-band yang kita suka. Lepas tu kita mula menulis dan mengeluarkan fanzine-fanzine yang dijual secara murahan dan juga dihantar kepelusuk dunia. Seterusnya kita rakamkan 'demo", buat kaset sendiri dan edar anatara kita, dan sbgnya lah. Sekarang ada internet, oleh itu cara penyebaran info lagi senang juga meriah.

- Saya pernah terdengar pada tahun 1995 – 1999 banyak band underground Malaysia pernah membuat persembahan di luar Malaysia dan album terjual di luar, sedangkan ketika itu, kemudahan seperti myspace dan email tidak luas dipergunakan. Bagaimana ketika itu scene underground boleh begitu meriah sehingga ke peringkat luar?

Dunia DIY underground bergerak secara internasional, ianya semacam sebuah keluarga yang besar yang menjaring keseluruh dunia. Ianya juga tidak mementingkan "keuntungan" dari segi kewangan, malahan ianya mempunyai ciri-ciri utama yang lebih berkisar dipusaran minat terhadap muzik, dan juga agenda-agenda yang lebih kearah kemanusiaan dan kepentingan sejagat (keamanan, dunia tanpa prejudis, keadilan dan seterusnya); ini semua adalah nilai-nilai kemanusian yang umum, oleh itu ianya mempunyai pelbagai sokongan dari mereka-mereka yang sebulu diseluruh dunia. Sebuah band DIY di Malaysia sekarang bila-bila masa sahaja boleh mengadakan persembahan menjelajah serata dunia hanya dengan sokongan yang tersebut diatas. Ianya apa yang kita panggil sebagai "a global network of friends".

- Pada pendapat anda, bagaimana untuk menjadi sebuah band yang bagus dan dikenali?

Saya rasa originaliti adalah sifat yang amat penting. Juga intisari lirik-lirik yang ada perlu mempunyai nilai-nilai bernas dan juga jujur. Selebihnya adalah keupayaan untuk sentiasa berusaha tanpa disekat oleh elemen-elemen luaran.

- Pada pendapat anda, muzik Malaysia secara menyeluruh, kenapa muzik Malaysia tidak mampu ke luar?

Pada saya, industri muzik perdana yang kita ada, terutama semenjak pertengahan 80an adalah sebuah industri yang hanya mementingkan keuntungan tanpa memikirkan hak-hak serta kehendak artis; seperti pengagihan royalti yang lebih adil tanpa berat menyebelahi pihak industri semata.

Mereka juga lupa untuk menjana pelbagai insentif yang baik untuk para pemuzik terus berkarya secara bebas dgn berani mencari pembaharuan. Yang ada sekarang adalah formula-formula muzik yang telah lama basi dan tidak mampu untuk bersaing dengan industri muzik international yang senantiasa bergerak secara progresif.

Dilemma ini adalah sama dengan apa yang dihadapi oleh pelajar-pelajar kita sekarang. Kualiti pembelajaran yang tidak tinggi serta menghalang kreativiti, yang hanya berkisar semata untuk meraihkan diploma-diploma dan degree-degree, walhal pemikiran dan juga kebernasan berfikir serta sifat-sifat pemikiran kritikal diabaikan sama sekali. Hasilnya? Manusia "robot" yang hanya mampu menerima arahan demi arahan tanpa mempunyai sifat individualiti berani yang penting untuk kita terus maju bersaing.

- Pada pendapat anda, bagaimana untuk memperkenalkan muzik Malaysia ke luar?

Saya rasa sebelum kita berborak tentang "memperkenalkan muzik Malaysia ke luar", apa yang lebih perlu adalah memperkenalkan diri kita kepada kepentingan "kritikal thinking", juga menimba budaya alternatif yang ada; kita perlu memeluk perbedaan yang ada tanpa prejudis dan juga mengenal hak-hak asasi kita sebagai manusia berfikiran yang perlu diambil berat dan tidak diperlekehkan.

Mereka yang jauh terbang adalah mereka yang bebas, terutama mereka yang bebas berkarya dan bersuara. Tanpa itu semua, apa yang ada adalah kepompong atau pagar-pagar dan kotak-kotak berkunci. Katak dibawah tempurung tidak akan kemana.

Terima kasih.

QUESTIONS:

2007-01-08T06:26:00.000-08:00

These are the common questions people ask about us..... So, we damn so tired to answer them orally..... so just read this things..... okay!!!!!

1) Who is behind Imagicamusic Entertainment?

botaq
faiz
shakir
mamat
nurul aisyah
erna
wan

2) Why did you guys form Imagicamusic? What are the goals or objectives?
imagica music is not a business entity but it is a community dat gather all local bands/musicians regardless they are new, 'orang lama' undergrounds bands or mainstream bands to support each other towards our local music. we believe dat, to enhance our local music, all we need to do is to support each other. what imagica music see, there's something like a gap exist among new comers, those orang lama, underground bands n mainstream bands. it is very seldom to see underground bands n mainstream bands share one stage in any events/showcase. same goes to to the new comers and the orang lama in underground scene. we dont want this new comers say "band lama ni berlagak loooorrr..." and orang lama say "band sekarang ni harap glemer je lebih...attitude kurengggg..." the phrase of "attitude kureng" by orang lama refers to to those newcomers dat might forgotten the DIY spirits in undergroung scene...... so we want to create back the spirit of DIY plus support each other include junior, senior musicians regardless they come from mainstream or underground.

besides, imagica music also try to provide platform to newcomers to expose their music. its very difficult for newcomers to expose their music to public especially bands who play heavy music. they cant join open mic (maybe can, but not suitable laaaa) like troubardours or doppelganger around kl. so, one way is.... 'marilah kite join battle of the band je laaaaa.... kalah pun kalah laaaa... janji boleh perform..... ' so, imagica music welcome this newcomers... any kind of music..... u r good or not, doesnt matter... as long as it creates a spirit of supportive among all who participates. a baby start from crawling then he/she started to walk and then learn to run.... all this need supports.... same goes to the bands, eventhough they r not good, if we keep on supporting them they will never give up, n they will keep learning n become greater....
we also encourage band to learn on how to conduct gigs practically.....
these is our roles and our objectives.

3) Besides gigs, what kind of stuff does Imagica do?
-we help bands in distributing their Demos , EPs, albums.
- we print out shirts
- we organise art exihibitions by UiTM students.
- we organise futsal tournament.

PAY TO PLAY SERIES 1- review

2006-12-26T07:52:00.000-08:00

Pay to Play Gig??? This is a gig in Klang to give platform to newcomers to expose their talent in music as well as supporting local indie music. A special thing about this event is, all bands who involve in this gig pay RM 60 in order to expose their music to public. This is the reason why it is called PAY TO PLAY GIG. Bands who involve in this gig not only will perform their music, but also learn in conducting this event, and marketing the event to the public.
There will be 13 bands involve in this event. Each band need to pay RM 60 to cover all the rental i.e. space and music equipment. Profit and loss from this event will be shared equally. Via this, all bands will take part and giving ideas to make the event success as well learning the concept of planning, organizing, leading and controlling a project.

On 24 December a day before Christmas, music fans and 13 local bands strolled into Tunestone Studio Klang for an intimate show organized by Imagica Music Community.

The 13 local bands were The Melodies, Miura, Round robin, Radioflyer, Lydias’s Diery, Maximus, Abstrak Hingga Ke Bulan, Cili, In Curl, Fedora, Marionexxes, Sonic Mush and special appearance from Ipoh, The Hans.

Started at 2.30 pm, the gig kicked off with opening acts by The Melodies with their 70’s rock n roll music and appearance. The band was really stunning bringing their 4 Malay songs, originally composed by them.

The show continued. It was Round Robin to rock the crowds. Sing 2 Malay songs and 2 English songs, the band sounds like Gorillaz and Pretty Ugly.

When Miura comes on stage, the hall was full with crowds. This band sounds like Muse and Radiohead. They started to perform, and at the end of the first song, the 2nd guitarist, Pejai realized that his guitar is not functioning. Thank God, Pejai realized it earlier. If not, he might continue ‘gigging’ without realize his guitar cable was not put into the guitar amp. Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!

“Okay, introduce the next band, Radiohead Malaysia…. RADIOFLYER!!!!!!” shout-out by the MC for that day, Zarul of Abstrak Hingga Ke Bulan.

Radioflyer came onto stage and took some time setting up their instruments. Wooooowww!!!!! They damn so good!!! It was totally Rock N Roll. Both guitarists were very good in controlling guitar sounds. Crowds seem to enjoy their performance regardless boys or girls…… fuhhhh!!!!!

The organizer band, Marionexxes standby to rock the stage. As usual, their guitarist, Paul will Berkaki Ayam and jump like Ayam Kena Sembelih. Not only that, his hair style also liked Ayam Sabung. Hehehehehehe…… The off beat singing by Piko plus Ayam Kena Sembelih by Paul was just an excellent combination to attract the crowds. You rock Marionexxes!!!!!!!!!

In Curl, Sonic Mush, and Abstrak Hingga Ke Bulan continue to rock the show. Most crowds seem tired and they hang out outside the hall. It was damn so hot inside the hall. Imagine, with only 2 air conditioners inside the hall try to cover almost 110 people inside the hall.

It was already 7 pm. The show stop for a moment to respect Maghrib. The show continued after 15 minutes with Fedora Band. The front man for this band is a girl….. Cute girl!!!!! Yummmmmm!!!!! This band create back happening atmosphere probably because of the cute girl. Hahahahaha!!!!! They perform 3 cover songs and one their own song.

Next band after Fedora was Maximus. It was Miji (Flop Poppy)’s side band project with Apex (Ex Muffin Band) who formed this band. This band sounds like gothic Malay band. A powerful voice from Apex combines with charismatic guitar sounds from Miji creates an atmosphere of Fantasy, Romance and it was awesome!!!

“This gig is actually our second show. Thanks to the organizers who invite us” said Miji.

The gig ended with Cili bringing their ska and punk music.

After Cili finished perform, all bands gather together to take pictures. It was a really great moment when old timer bands shared same stage together with newcomer bands. Hopefully there will be more show like this in the future.

Indeed, we need ALL supports to save our music!!!
Thanks to who participates towards the event!!!!!!
