M.C Asia Behind The Music 2

November 23rd, 2009, posted in Events, Music, Random rants, Shennanigans

Thanks to Caryn, i was invited to a DJ Workshop entitled M.C Asia Behind The Music @ Royale Chulan. I almost run out of petrol trying to get my ass there. As you’ve read the post before this, M.C Asia is a series of DJ workshop that will guide participants to get their ass up in the dance music industry. Specifically aimed at Asians, this workshop really benefits me in every way. =)

 Enough of pictures, lets get down to DJ-ing. As you guys know, (well only some of you la.) im into mixing music. And this platform is a great opportunity to dig as many information as possible from the industry’s veteran. DJ Blastique and Gabriel was warming the house up with host Daniel Jones getting us hyped.

DJ Blastique

Through out the whole session, both DJ’s were explaining to us different style of mixing. DJ Gabriel is an old skool freak, preferring to lay his hands on CDJ’s and Vinyl while Balastique is equip with his MAC, Midi Controller and Mixer. ( Laptop DJ )

Both DJ’s were showing us what can be done with Laptop DJ and CDJ. Well to be honest, i think CDJ has a wide load of functionalities but are limited to a few at one time. For example, the effects such as flanger and brake and etc, you can have them played at the same time. Nevertheless, you look cool mixing in CDJ’s. =p

Laptop DJ functions has more and are only limited to where your imagination can bring you. You can cue lotsa clips of audio from your current song on the fly, you can have many effects craving through your mix, on the fly too, and tons of other stuff.

I took this opportunity to shoot as many ques as i can to Gabriel as i have problems with beat matching and BPMs. LOL. i cant beat match perfectly on R&B.

RECHARGE YOUR SENSE – JB DISCOVERY, HOLIDAY PLAZA JB.

October 25th, 2009, posted in Events, Random rants, Shennanigans

 

Yes party people in the house! Guess what?

I’ve been out of KL.  Been partying and sort… We’ve gone bonkers. We’ve danced. We’ve party. We’ve got wasted. We’ve got the booze!

And guess what?

WE ARE TOTALLY RECHARGE!

Its all thanks to Bass Agent and Proteus, our night in JB Discovery was worth every single second.

IMG_0072

Not only that, the company that night, made it even awesome!!!! Who can ever forget our fond moment that night? *hint hint*

And of course, the ever hyped party animal crowd!!

Who was there that night, gimme a woots!

The night started with BASS AGENT hitting the DECKS with their thumping signature hard bass sound.

IMG_9950

I’ve been their fan since i was 15 cuz i was attracted to their style. They are not your typical DJ. They blast BASS out of your stereo. And its HARD BASS.

WHAT’S MORE ADDICTIVE THAN BASS ITSELF? Nothing as close as them.

IMG_9951

It was such a great honor to be able to watch them perform live. I was NEVER able to catch them live. Although I’ve been their fan for 4 years, this is my first time and I CAN TELL YOU, THEY ARE AWESOME OFF AND ON SET. woots. KUDOS TO YOU BASS AGENT.

IMG_0072

They got the people dancing to their beats before the main act got up on stage to show JB what Finland night scene is all about!

Yes and you guessed it right, DJ Proteus is from Finland. And he is the first Finland DJ to ever break into the World 100 DJ list. You can guessed by that, how he brought the house down, babeh!

IMG_0123 copy

Not only he spins head banging music, he interacts with the crowd too! Yeah man, HE INTREACTS WITH THE CROWD.

Tell me people, which DJ in the world (at least to my knowledge) ever dance with the crowd while spinning?

He does. Period. IMG_0117 copy 

IMG_0134

He was dancing all over the stage. I really thought he was high by the booze! Instead of dancing, i got amused by him. =p Seriously you should see him dancing while spinning.IMG_0129

While Proteus was doing his thang, we party goers get our selves down with Colgate liquor! It was MINT and it got us REFRESHED for the rest of the night!

Enough of talking, lets get down with pictures!=)

DJ PROTEUS WITH US BLOGGERS =)’

 

While we were busy enjoying ourselves, Proteus did the unthinkable. Something so awesome, you’ll never wanna miss his next performance.

IMG_0184

YES OMGOD. He went berserk and start strumming the bass guitar. Thinking it would suck, he proved me hell wrong. His punched of bass guitars on his on going set was awesome that the crowd went on cheering for him!

IMG_0187

A nice touch by Proteus. First good impression he had to me. Cant wait for his next set. =)

Its my first time being to Recharge and partying all night long and yet it made my feel damn good. Recharge just got us bloggers ( hard to please bloggers mind you =p ) dancing with the music and booze right to the wee hours in the morning.

 

IMG_0289

We went from some dead zombies to RECHARGE PARTY ANIMAL that night. Bass Agent and Porteous came in not knowing how sucky that place was, BUT BROUGHT THE HOUSE DOWN the moment their magic hands started laying on the Vinly.

From my all time fav, Bass Agent to the newly discovered awesome DJ hailing all the way from Finland the night was not getting any better. This trip down is so worthwhile. Never mind NN Awards ( heard it was boring, anyway =p ), we have
