The title itself had got me very eager to pop the CD into the player, what more having to listen to the CD. This latest compilation CD by Sony Music Malaysia features the best in the industry from two different genre, Indies and Hip Hop.

1. Isabella – Joe Flizzow feat Amy Search
2. Oh Sizuka – Pop Shuvit
3. Cinta Gila – Grey Sky Morning
4. Aurora – Estranged
5. Mimpi – Altimet feat Ning Baizura
6. Ayoh Joget – Kraft
7. Si Murai Penipu – Stonebay
8. X-Ray – Nabila Huda
9. Aku Pelangi – Joanna & Co
10. Gadis Gedung Atasan – Brainhead
11. Biar Mati Chinta Ini – Maximus
12. Tentang Kita – Couple
13. Cuma Dia -Sonar
14. Osaka – Disagree
15. Diamonds – Kraft
16. Do It Duit – Joe Flizzow feat PhlowtronIMG_1969

To be very honest, i find the Indie tracks that were included in this album are below par compared to the Hip Hop tracks. It might be just me, but seriously hotter and way popular tracks from Couple, Estranged should be in. I have no complains for the Hip Hop tracks though.

Another thing to note is that the first track, Isabella is really a turn off to most people. Well the main important reason on why people got turn off by Malaysian music are the Rock Kapak style of music made popular by Search, Wings and etc. Making the track hip hop-ish would not help either. I’ve pop the CD into my player while my friends are around and when the first track played, the first thing they did was to complain. Just my 2cent.

Pop Shuvit - Oh! Sizuka[1]

Pop Shuvit is one of the ‘attraction’ to the album.

All the Hip Hop track such as Diamonds and Ayuh Joget by Kraft, Do it Duit by Joe Flizzow, Mimpi – Altimet are the bomb! I really enjoyed listening to all of it especially Diamonds. I was hoping more hip hop tracks to be included to balanced with the Indie track though. Maybe in the next compilation.

For the Indie part, aside from what I’ve mentioned above, the remaining tracks hit the sweet spot. If you were to realized, most indie bands that are in the CD are uprising stars. Notably Joanna and Co, Maximus, Nabila Huda and Stonebay. All of these uprising indie stars are making waves in our local music industry and best of all, their songs are worth listening. You’ve got my words.

There are only two English song in the album, Osaka by Disagree and Diamonds by Kraft. I really wish in the next album more English songs are included too as it will reach out to a wider target market.

This album is a must buy for local indie and hip hop music lovers! Some songs might be a lil’ ‘outdated’ but nevertheless the indie track of upcoming rising stars are worth listening. If you are a hip hop lover, all the tracks will appeal to you as the beats dropped are done by Maestros! Flizzow, Altimet, Kraft. Its a bliss. Worth the bucks. So what are you waiting for, head down to your nearest record store and grab your copy for only Rm31.90

My Verdict: 3.5/5

Spot on for : Local Indie and Hip Hop LOVAH! :D

Dump it if : You are not into local music. =’(

Fuzzy Feeling Factor : Fuzzy to my spine!!! :)

Fuzzy Feel Rating : Next please |  I feel tinges | Fuzzy to my Spine | Outta this world

p.s: Everyone hates Isabella. :X

Finally, thanks to TM’s Everyone Connects campaign, Tokio Hotel graze our shores with their absolute rock perfect performance that send waves across Central Park Avenue with screeching voice of screaming teenagers… woots.

Yea, that expression above was exactly how every single girl had that night. Waves and waves of screams form the die hard fans of Tokio Hotel send shivers down my spine.

Some was even there as early as 3pm; nobody would wanna miss a glimpse of Bill and hear him perform the hit that brought them to the charts, Automatic and World Behind My Wall.

Despite all the rain and etc, Fans were still stuck to the ground waiting patiently for Tokio Hotel to come on stage. That cutie was a die hard fan and had been there since ground zero till Tokio Hotel took the stage by storm.

Hours before Tokio Hotel performed, fans were already screaming frantically and even louder as Hitz.Fm Jin came on stage to host teh parteh!

IMG_1091

As an avid local music supporter, how can i miss Bunkface and Pop Shuvit’s performance. =p Although Tokio Hotel was the main act, but i was happier to see both of our local bands performing on stage. OPPS! =p

IMG_1120 

Pop Shuvit got the crowd warmed up when they opened the concert for the night. The crowd were screaming when Pop Shuvit hit their latest single Oh Sizuka, followed by Jump and lastly the all time favorites MaraBahaya.

Moots – “Jauh ku menuju…….. ”

Moots as usual does the crowd surf. He does it at almost every performance. <3 Pop Shuvit. WOOTS. =)

Bunkface followed up and hyped the crowd even more! =)

IMG_1208 

Definitely BunkFace was the crowd favorites as compared to Pop Shuvit. After all, they are the fastest rising Punk rock band in Malaysia. That night they sang most songs from their latest album such as Situasi, Extravaganza, Revolusi, Prom Queen and of cuz the all time favorite Melalui Tingkap Ku / Through My Window. =)

Watergun to prepare the crowd for the limelight. =)IMG_1249

 

While waiting for Tokio Hotel to prepare their set, the DJ’s were spinning club hitz , that made the crowd to groove a lil while waiting for Bill to mesmerize the girls. Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Snoop Dogg and etc etc were pumping from the stereos.

Sharp 9.30pm, I get this awesome looking expression… >> IMG_1272

Cuz guess what, its Tokio Hotel’s turn to rock the stage.

IMG_1298

 

When Bill came from the back of the stage, every single girls from every corner of Central Park screamed their lungs out. The place was so defying that it almost made my ear drums burst. Even those who doesn’t have a ticket and were watching outside were jumping up and down when Bill came on stage.

IMG_1318 

It was as if, Bill is their religion. Their God. Every single girls out there worships them. It was like then end of the world. But heck, Tokio Hotel pulled a great show. The sang all of their hits in their new album and of course the two hip songs that are hot on the airwaves right now.

IMG_1306

By the time they sang Automatic, its just beyond imagination. Wild screams, moshing, botty shaking were seen at every corner. It was a controlled chaotic situation. Out of this world.

IMG_1324

But nah, i wasnt blow away. =p

IMG_1326

Ok you must be wondering where are the other group member photos. Well, media’s were ask to leave that place. So none of us got a really decent shot of the group members. Way to go organizer =) *Claps*

Tokio Hotel really did a great job on stage. Their live performance are very good and comparable to other more established rockers out there. I dare to say they are as good as Daughtry. Everything were pitched perfect . We definitely need to bring them back again to our shores. I am sure most of the girls out there still could not get enough of them. But most importantly.. get a better organizer. and a better venue.

Tokio Hotel Live in Malaysia were proudly brought to you by TM. Thanks to Universal Music and Advertlets for the Media Passes.
