It was yet another wicked night of uplifting and progressive trance anthems setting the mosh-pit on fire.

Despite being a rather wet night, it proved no wet blanket for ravers and EDM party punters to continue storming ahead to Club Neverland for a cosmic blast to kick-off their weekend.

It certainly didn't stop me from making my way there, that's for sure.

Thank you, Wicked Entertainment, for the invitation! 

With my other half, all ready for a great party ahead!

Destination: Club Neverland! 

Upon entering its premises, I spotted pretty cool rave gear being sold by Rave Kandy!

(((STYLESHOT)))

As I arrived rather early, I got to catch the opening acts for the night.

Our very own rising nu-breeds, B.A.T.E (Brains and the Eye) as well as Captain Ed (C.Ed) in action. 

Our opening acts did a great job in turning the temperature up as early as 10pm.

With their booming sounds of disco, techno, big room and electro, they blasted various tracks from the likes of W&W, Hardwell, Zedd and more!

Ethan Curzon of B.A.T.E doing this thing

B.A.T.E and Captain Ed set the mood amazingly well!

More and more people began to fill the dance floor as the night unfolded.

I took a step out for a breather and managed to take some photos with my buddies. 

Us at the entrance, where all the activities and games were ongoing.

We didn't manage to win ourselves anything though… boo!

Kim and I at the entrance 

We went inside and back upstairs at the VIP deck again and grabbed another round of drinks.

With more of my buddies Ryan and Sam! 

Anytime now. Here we are,waiting for Cosmic Gate's set. 

At 1am sharp, it was time to turn our party dial a notch higher.

Our superstars of the night, Cosmic Gate took over the decks in style and rocket-launched us to euphoria.

Say hello to DJ Bossi and Nic Chagall 

The dance floor was packed as ever.

Even upstairs, where I was, was full house! 

These German duos really know how to kick a party into immeasurable levels,

especially when they played 'Be Your Sound'.

The energy was infectious and kept building like there was no tomorrow!

Our World  #39 Top DJ-Producers definitely made sure we had fun 

Pretty sure everyone present would agree!

Nic driving the crowd wild

When their set hit a halfway mark at a little past 2AM, a loud bang was heard followed by a burst of confetti filling the air with streams of shiny paper and colourful bits.  

It was raining with colours and sparkles for a good one minute! 

A thunderous applause and wolf-whistles were heard from the mosh-pit!

The music was not only superb, but the lighting and sound system were flawless! 

I absolutely loved their remix of Above & Beyond's 'Thing Called Love' and Hardwell's 'Spaceman'.

It was brilliant! 

Jun 7, 2013 | Awesome remix by @RealCosmicGate of #Hardwell's 'Spaceman' and Above & Beyond's 'Thing called Love'! ❤ Rave on! by imthejessicat on Keek.com

Fist-pumping all night long!

We left a little before 3AM to avoid the massive lockdown at the carpark.

But as we came out, we saw that here were very efficient RELA cops (for my non-Malaysian readers, these are paramilitary civil volunteer cops!) there to assist with the traffic, ensuring that partygoers were able to leave the premises without much delay. 

Tonight's entertainment was brought to you by Wicked Entertainment and Club Neverland KL.

Thank you for giving us an great  time 

It was progressively hard-hitting, as it was vocally serenading.

I felt like I was taken to different spheres of the universe! Here's a short video I made of the night.  Enjoy!

Track ID: Cosmic Gate – 'Be Your Sound'

Leaving the club at a little before 3AM

I could still feel Cosmic Gate's bass-jacking, heart-stopping tracks on my way back

It was indeed, a night to remember.

Kicking off earlier in the year, KL music lovers and EDM fanatics were in for a head-banging treat!

The Wicked Nights club series set the bar by producing international megastars, namely Steve Aoki, Angger Dimas and Vicious Sound System to take over the decks for a night of stellar electronic vibes right at the heart of our city, in Club Neverland KL.

Presenting only the most eclectic EDM acts around the globe so far, clubbers will be shot right onto the heart of the dancefloor for another stunner this weekend.  

Just by looking at the title of today's blog article, I'm sure you know which EDM giant I'm talking about by now. But before that, I'm going to share some photos from the night Wicked Entertainment brought Steve Aoki to us.

Was rushing out and forgot to bring my camera out so I was stuck with using only my iPhone! 

Watching Steve Aoki perform, downing heaps of champagne with the rest and raving hard till the wee hours of the morning made up one phenomenal night for me, all thanks to Wicked Entertainment and Club Neverland KL! 

As you have seen, with Wicked Entertainment at the helm of the night, you know a wicked party combined with wicked acts headlining the parties is in store for you. They sure know how to throw a sinister night, hands down!

This time round, Wicked Entertainment brings the galaxy’s favorite progressive & hard trance electronic duo to town.

Guess who?

With a legion of more legendary acts in the pipeline, the Wicked Nights club series is about to transcend music purists to another celestial episode with its next showcase this Friday featuring German trance duo, Cosmic Gate!

So guess where I'll be partying at this Friday?

No where else but Club Neverland KL, of course!  I was excited to be invited to attend Cosmic Gate live in Club Neverland KL as they are my favorite EDM duos ever.

I practically have all their songs on iTunes and admittedly, stalk them on Spotify.

Watched them perform last year at Future Music Festival Asia 2012

In line with their Wake Your Mind Asia Tour this year, they will be returning to Malaysia as one of their stopover locations to perform for their local, die-hard fans again. 

That's excellent news! 

Nic Chagall and Bossi have evolved Cosmic Gate into one of the most creative and highly-sought-after electronic music acts in the world. 

Revered uber-producers, their musical acumen has seen them become long-term favourites of the trance’s Big 5 DJs with their 3 hugely-received albums transporting some of my favorite anthems.

'Be Your Sound'.

Ranked at World #39 in the Top 100 DJs of 2013, it's no wonder Cosmic Gate is taking on the wheels of steel and whipping dancefloors into a frenzy when their evocative mix of trance, progressive and electro hits the speakers. 

So here are the details again, summarized just for you:

What? Cosmic Gate live in Malaysia

Where? Club Neverland KL

When? 7th June 2013 (9pm till late)

How? RM65 early bird tickets | RM80 plus 1 drink

RM270 for a 6 Asahi pack (admits 3 pax) | RM450 for 1 bottle (admits 3 pax)

Only one more sleep to go, I'm ready for another cosmic blast to hit the city this weekend 

See you there, party people!

Been really busy! Hence lesser updates in this month. 

Anyway, what rocked Malaysia's music scene?

It is the first ever Asian installation of the famed Future Music Festival – an outdoor, world-class rave party originating from Australia.

As I mentioned in this previous entry, Malaysia was the first ever venue to host Future Music Festival outside of Australia, boasting 70 international, regional & local acts on our party-grounds in Sepang International Circuit.

The FUTURE IS NOW.

If you missed the fabulous 13-hour rave event, then take my hand and I'll show you what happened through my eyes & party-feet 😀

I started my journey south to Sepang International Circuit right after lunch with my partymates.

Pam & I (and a wild, random distraught face) in the backseat

Emily & I 🙂

Okay so.. that wild, distraught face wasn't exactly that random after all.

It was theboyfie photobombing us 😀

We arrived just as Stafford Brothers set ended. Bummer! 🙁

But at least we could hear just how awesome they are – collaborating with Timmy Trumpet – as we walked to the event from our car.

Partying at Future Music Festival Asia in First Class thanks to Future Music Entertainment, Livescape Asia & Ecosphere

My partypeeps for the day! 13 hours of non-stop raving.

Let's do this! 

Got our rave essentials ready : our Ray-Bans & party shades, slapped on lots of sunblock, brought disposable raincoats (just in case!), tissues, fully-charged mobile phones & cameras, LED finger-lights and ourselves of course – brimming with energy! 😀 😀 

Camwhoring with theboyf while waiting for others to arrive!

More camwhoring!

Met up Sueann! 🙂

Finally when everything was over and done with at the entrance, we proceeded to go into the grounds.

There's no backing out once you get in there as a no re-entry rule was imposed.

Once you're in, you stay in 😉

With the Aussiemates!

Watching The Potbelleez at Future Stage

The crowd went crazy when they sang their single 'From the Music'

The other half & I (LOL look at Jane & Ray photobombing us!)

LOL Ash wore his shades upside down

Prolly can't see Jane's hat in this photo but she was wearing an epic feather headgear ala red-Indian!

With Shannon & Jane (and Joanne photobombing!)

The 4 piece Irish-Australian electro music group gave us a swell performance!

Managed to spot Jonny Sonic backstage! I ran outta the VIP lounge room to catch him for a photo

Sehati-sejiwa and I with Jonny Sonic! 

After Potbelleez, we stayed on at Future Stage to watch Flo-Rida spin right round, right round 😛 😛 

Flo-Rida!

Flo-Rida performing 'Low'

The popular American rapper bringing the house down with 'Club Can't Handle Me' 

Flo-Rida interacted with his audience pretty darn well! He came down to where the audience was and stage-dived.

Grabbed my friend's waterbottle and poured everything on himself too! 😀

Next up, we headed to Flamingo Stage to watch Grandmaster Flash

No prizes on guessing why it's called the Flamingo Stage

The legendary American Hip Hop pioneer, musician & DJ – well known as King Grandmaster Flash!

Boyfie and I

We be lovin' his 90s gangsta rap music! He even dropped beats by Eminem and Snoop Dogg.

Joe and I at the VIP deck

Bumped into a few other friends during Grandmaster Flash's set, Leonard & Belle!

So happy when Aaron and I *finally* met each other!

We haven't seen each other ever since I left Australia to come back to Malaysia 

Bumped into a former collegemate, Theresa! 🙂
I just had a hunch that she will be there, knowing jolly well she's an EDM fan too!

Also met up with Chris, my first few buddies here when I first moved to KL!

When we walked past the art wall, Pam & I couldn't help but to run to the graffiti and take a picture with it!

Beautiful street art. Major loves!

We crossed to the other side to get to Las Venus stage to wait for Sneaky Sound System.

Look at everyone behind us waiting on the field!

Boyfie and I waiting too…….

Why are weeeeee waiting!!?

Getting darker and darker! Still waiting..

Jon, Jason and I…… still waiting

It was already 15minutes past 8PM and we have been waiting for 45 minutes! 🙁

We could no longer wait and dashed to Future Stage to quickly catch the last 15 minutes or so of Eddie Halliwell's set

We made it in time 😀 😀 

Loved the deep & heavy sounds of his house and trance mixes 

On the same stage after Eddie Halliwell was Pendulum, an Australian-British Drum n Bass/Rock band.

Rob Swire in action!

He was so lively and bursting with spirit and vigor – jumping, headbanging and beckoning us to follow suit.

We DnB revellers were practically feeding off his infectious energy! 

Pendulum performing ''Witchcraft'

I daresay that Pendulum stands strong as my favorite act of the whole event, a tie between Cosmic Gate & Eddie Halliwell.

They were so amazing and their performance was resonating with intensity throughout their 2 hour set.

Pendulum performing 'The Island'

Wish I could stay longer though! Loved their performance so much 🙁 

Unfortunately, we were all famished and thirsty as we had not eaten ever since we arrived the event at 3PM.

We had meat pies and delicious ice cream!

Laying on the couches inside the VIP lounge room after dinner

Pam & I ran all the way to Las Venus stage to catch Chase & Status!

Alas, we only managed to hear their final song performance and a thank you speech from them

Shortly after, Pam, Konzy & I headed to Gnome Stage to catch Super 8 & Tab.

Geez! We felt like energizer bunnies running from stage to stage making sure we get to watch our fave acts!

Woot woot watch the Finnish duo of  trance music producers go!

The laser lighting & flashes at this stage was extremely glaring! It was difficult to take photos or to watch the DJs

But fret not! We had our rave shades on us – it sure came in handy!

Shades and LED finger-lights!

Bumped into XinXian! 😀 😀 

Finally, my Konzy came to join us right after he finished playing

his racing game at the interactive game hut

Oh, and he won himself a kick-ass lighter in red & silver! 😀 

We all then headed over to the Las Venus stage to catch Alex Metric soon after.

Watching the British musician & DJ drop the bass! 

Bumped into my other Aussiemates, Michael and Chris standing right in front!

And the rest of the girls chilling on the field listening to Alex Metric from where they lay

After Alex Metric was over, we roamed about before heading to watch the Chemical Brothers

Fun fair rides! There was a Ferris Wheel and a Reverse-Bungee Jump ride!

From the initial 5, we spread out and so the 3 of us made our way to the front  to watch 

Chemical Brothers as well as our favorite of the night, Cosmic Gate!

Part of the Chemical Brothers!

The transition between Chemical Brothers and Cosmic Gate was so quick that many of us didn't quite notice the sudden switch!

But here they are, the final act of the night…. the German trance duo behind the ever-popular 'Be Your Sound'

Cosmic Gate

Raise your hands for Nic Chagall and DJ Bossi!

Their 1.5hour set was phenomenal

All 5 of us reunited again after the 13 hour rave – fully exhausted and drained yet ecstatic that we have lived to rave through the first ever installation of Future Music Festival in our home country, Malaysia!

First of many to come, I hope? 🙂

Final photo! Tired but happy faces 

Bought myself a Future Music Festival Asia tee as a memorabilia of the fabulous night!

I had recorded so much footage and was going to make a kick-ass video summarizing my FMFA 2012 experience, but it got deleted by accident as I thought I had already transferred them to my computer (but I didn't yet). Goddamnit! Was so pissed 🙁

But at the very least, theboyf happened to put together a simple video containing the footages he recorded! 

So here it is – 

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv_XdchLMFA

Thanks for the footages, hun!

A big KUDOS and thank you to the organizers of Future Music Festival Asia 2012, Future Entertainment and Livescape Asia as well as its sponsors for making this event a tremendous success!

FMFA 2012 has certainly set the bar for world-class rave/music festivals 

If you were there, you definitely will remember this for life!

When I first heard about Future Music Festival ASIA, I was ecstatic!

I got even more excited when I found out that the Asian instalment is going to be held in my very own homeland – Malaysia!

Future Music Festival is internationally known to be a world-class music festival experience.

Indeed, a record-breaking rave party and a sold-out national tour in all its glory!

Malaysia will be the first ever Future Music Festival venue outside of Australia!

So yes, if you don't believe it – YOU BETTER!

The moment fellow music revellers have all been waiting for has arrived on our Malaysian soil. 

Boy, aren't we proud to host this massive 13 hour rave of ground-breaking music? And have over 60 international, regional and local acts all happening on one mad day? 😀 😀
