BAND ANNOUNCEMENT #10

TENDERFIST




There's two ways i can describe this band. One is that they write awesome forward thinking music. The other is that they are made up of super cool cats! I have known Nazri since i moved to KL 4 years ago when he was still under the moniker Joe Ribut dan Sidang-Sidang Petualang..I had loved the sax and noise drenched bleeps he was twiddling with back then! He was one of the guys besides Reza Salleh who actually invited me to play at their gigs and i would always be thankful to them. Now, back to the band! These guys dabble in electronic janggle tunes which are sweet n dark at the same time..backed by beats and a floor tom beaten like a heartbroken caveman. Reminds me of JAMC on a sunday afternoon stroll..haha..Thanks blats for finding the time to lend us support despite the impending birth of Nazri's baby! Like i said to him, fathers-to-be unite! A must see band!

BAND ANNOUNCEMENT # 4

SPaCeDaYs.......



"Funk, soul and psychedelic music."

These are the many few things that can best described the trio from Lion City, Spacedays.

With a mission to re-create the 70's soul/funk fever back in Asia, the trio consisting of Mamat Modjo ( guitars/vocals ), Andi Rahmat ( bass/vocals ) and Shakir ( drums/vocals ), are going at the scene with a big bang!!

What started out as a side project, evolves into a spectacular catastrophic turn of events and from then on, the "Space" frontier begins. With influences from the classic Motown soul and funk, along with the tripping colour scenes of Jimi Hendrix Experiences,David Bowie & Ziggy Stardust,Issac Hayes & James Brown and the direct Rock 'n' Roll approach of Dr.Feelgood, the boys sought out to create what was thought to be the new school of old school soul.

Many months have been spent in the studio perfecting their unique sound and approach to their music and now they are ready to take over the world!

Well , personally i have been given a rare preview of their tracks and i was blown away...Catch them live onstage at disko papan versus clef tunes this 23rd jan!
