Fly FM Campur Chart Goes Live Earth Hour 2009

2009-03-16T10:08:00.033+08:00

It was that time of the month again where Fly FM Campur Chart Goes Live brought some uber talented homegrown artists to perform at Laundry Bar. But this time around, on 12th March 2009, was extra special. Why so? It was a gig in support of Earth Hour! This truly phenomenal annual event aims to reach billions of people of all race and creed to switch off their lights for one hour on the 28th March 2009 in support for the fight against global warming.

"For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.

Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.

In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday." - taken from http://www.earthhour.org

Fly FM Campur Chart Goes Live In Support Of Earth Hour showcased Dose Two, Altered Frequency, Mia Palencia, and John's Mistress. The show was rockin', rappin' and absolutely awesomely happenin'!

Moonshine feat. Otam, Mia Palencia, Slowjaxx, Car Crash Hearts

2009-03-09T10:47:00.003+08:00

It was yet another great night with Moonshine at Laundry Bar. This time featuring a stellar cast of seasoned performers with a closing act by an up and coming pop-punk act. Singer-songwriters Otam, Mia Palencia and Slowjaxx graced the stage and showcased a variety of unique original tunes. Later on Car Crash Hearts closed to show with a bang! While the night started off with a relaxing ambience, Car Crash Hearts tuned up the volume and rocked the house down!

Otam, a one-of-a-kind folk singer-songwriter opened the show with one of his most famous song. With a raspy, no holds barred voice coupled with a series of facial contortions, Otam gave one heck of a performance! This funny lad never fails to entertain the crowd with his innocent almost boyish spontaneous and completely out of the blue comments like "Oh sorry I played a bit too rushed". But of course writing about it doesn't do any justice what so ever. He's the kind of performer that you have to see to know. And if you weren't there at Laundry, man oh man, did you miss out on something great or what.

What makes Otam so unique is not only his coarse, honest voice, but also the spirit and vibe he gives out at every performance.

Otam coaxes the organizer of the show, a singer-songwriter himself, Reza Salleh, to play the guitar while he... raps!

A folk singer-songwriter who raps? No, really, he pulls it off superbly well!

Next up was none other than Mia Palencia. This lady really doesn't need much introduction. We've heard more than enough times of how explosive rock bands would bring the house down. Well, I bring to you ladies and gentleman, this sweet faced lady who would bring the roof down with only her voice. A constant joy to watch, Mia displayed an air of confidence and charm that only a seasoned performer possess. Belting out some new tracks she recently wrote, Mia played with a funky looking acoustic guitar (I swear it looks like a part of a mandolin or a ukelele).

Reza Salleh was again ushered back on stage to duet with Mia for one last song. His deep voice coupled with Mia's falsetto voice sent shivers down my spine. They are quite possibly one of the best vocal duets I've heard in a long time.

Slowjaxx came up stage later armed with an electric guitar, a fedora hat and a glass of whisky. His songs weren't technically complex, no fancy gorengs, and nothing Hendrix-ish. I felt that his songs could be developed more, with more layers and some variety of melodies and riffs. But despite all those, there was a sense of "air" that eminated from him. You could feel his gravity and you can't help but be intruiged by his aura. He had charm. He had style. And he had an infectious smile. Just exactly the kind of triple threat combination of many legendary singer-songwriters that started out performing in pubs and cafes. Musically he wasn't near mind blowing, but his voice and catchy lyrics gave him an edge. The kind of edge that you would hear and say, "He's an artist".

And what'd ya know, Reza's back on stage again! Here he is accompanying Slowjaxx on stage to sing a number.

And here it is, the final act of the night, Car Crash Hearts. These four lads from Klang Valley gave a heck of a rock out! A new up and comer in the indie scene, Car Crash Hearts comprises of seasoned performer (Wafiey from Ben's Bitches and Alda from.... well there's too many bands to name if y'know what I mean!). No doubt their sound is comparable to a slew of other pop-punk bands currently in the indie scene now. But I've to say, from experience, that their performance was nothing short of spectacular! And that is what sets them apart from many other pop-punk bands out there. Their songs are impressive as well; fresh and catchy. There was never a dull moment and their whole performance was filled with non-stop energy!

Moonshine feat. Azmyl Yunor, Sharidir & Nizam P., Sundae, Stonebay

2009-02-18T11:46:00.001+08:00

Last week's Moonshine featured veteran folk rocker Azmyl Yunor, acoustic duo extraordinaire Sharidir & Nizam P., goosebumps inducing Sundae, and indie rockers Stonebay. It would mark return performances (after a long absence) by Azmyl Yunor and Sharidir & Nizam. Sundae and Stonebay, came in as first time performers for Moonshine at Laundry. And, oh boy, they did not dissappoint. To say the very least.

Nizam P. on percussions & 2nd vocals

Sharidir on guitars & main vocals

Nizam's small army of percussion instruments

Sharidir & Nizam forms one of the most unique acoustic duo KL has ever seen. Honest to the bones lyrics, supremely tight skills, crisp performances, and straight-from-the-heart singing. It's a refreshing change in this sea of almost identical singer-songwriters of similar genres of music.

If only this photo could move, you'd be able to witness Sharidir's lighting speed guitar plucking. Absolutely awe-inspiring.

Anis, lead guitars and main vocals. And you gotta admit that the guitar is just too distractingly beautiful!

Down to earth, adorably shy and insanely talented, this girl embodies what the indie music scene is all about. Honesty, above all things.

Mar on the melodion (nifty little thing I tell ya)

Azam on drums. He's also part of a percussionist group called White Percussions.

Mar on violin

It's amazing that the band Sundae was formed only a little over a year ago. Consisting of music students, these awesome five-some are possibly one of the most promising bands in the local indie music scene.

Sundae performing their last song of the night, their swan song, Hilang. For a bunch of youngsters, the arrangement of this song was done so well. The multi-layered lush sounds on top of its simple, down to earth lyrics makes Hilang an amazing, amazing number.

"Aku cinta kamu

Aku rindu kamu

Aku perlu kamu"

Devoid of pretentiousness, the lyrics is written exactly the way it is in life. Corny as it may be, it is often the truth.

Next up! Azmyl Yunor & The Sigarettes

Keng on 2nd guitar

Now, how many college lecturers can you find rocking it out like this!

Azmyl Yunor & The Sigarettes

Adrian on bass

Azmyl's singing the lines to Makan Gaji, arguably one of his best songs to date. This cult favourite tune is funny, catchy and full of energy!

His awesome showmanship (most of the time quite entertaining, and sometimes extremely funny) never fails to bring the house down!

A guest performer playing a flute for one of the songs performed

And this is why they call him the Bob Dylan of KL. Possibly one of the very few singer-songwriters that has a harmonica among his repertoire of instruments.

At the end of the last song. Epic!

And the last one for the night, Stonebay!

Ojie on lead guitars and vocals, a Sabahan who is heavily influenced by 70's tunes and 90's alternative rock music.

Stonebay definitely has stage presence. Here, performing their hit single Sangsi (currently playing in the local airwaves).

Ashroff on 2nd guitar
