Future Sound Asia presents David Guetta LIVE in Malaysia (Special guest DJs Alesso & Kaz James) @ Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia! | David Guetta Asia Tour 2012

October 18, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

 

I'm still buzzing from Friday's massive David Guetta rave! My body hurts all over, but the pain is oh-so-good.

You know you've been to a hell of a wicked party when you wake up with a sore neck & shoulders, painful calves & aching arms. Friday night saw more than 20,000 revellers at the Paddock Parking of our famed racing circuit, the Sepang International Circuit.

 

I'm ready for a night of mayhem!

 

*disclaimer*

Didn't feel like lugging my DSLR camera around as I planned to party the hardest.

So all the photos in this blogpost are taken by the iPhone 4S 

 

Selca while waiting for boyfieKon to get ready – one of the rare moments I'm

ready before him because I've got so little clothes on LOL :P

 

When it rained all day on Friday, I was fully prepared to rave the night away away nonetheless.

 

Double outfit of the day!

I chose a rainbow-coloured coordinate while boyfieKon wore his comical Futurama tee

 

Come rain or shine, the show must go on, yes?

But thankfully, the EDM gods must've heard our plight & stopped the rain before the event even began!

 

I headed down to Sepang with boyfieKon along with my buddies Larry & Sabrina.

 

The crowd

 

We missed local electro-techno DJ Xu & Australian DJ Kaz James' set upon arrival. Bummer! :/

But we managed to watch the full set of Alesso, David Guetta & our homeboys DJ duo Blink & Goldfish. 

 

The very second I arrived, I put on my Ray-Bans & dived straight into the raging mosh pit, as usual!

 


What's a rave party if you sit at the sidelines and not get down raving, jumping, shuffling, headbanging your heart out? I just had to. The atmosphere was beckoning me – couldn't resist! 

 

 

We were trying hard not to get pushed and shoved even more when we took this photo! :D

 

Shakey shakey!

 

boyfieKon and I at the crazy mosh pit! 

 

 

Alesso was spinning while I was springing along with full gusto!

The energy in me was roaring to go all out tonight.

 

 

I went beserk when 'Raise Your Head' was playing LIVE before me.

Oh Alesso!! 

 

 

Met up some friends at the mosh pit and I was so stoked! :D

What are the odds? Bumping into your friends in a sardine-packed crowd of tens of thousands?

 

Buddy Hisham was one of them :D

 

So glad to bump into buddy Anis at the mosh pit!

 

No, actually, we didn't bump into each other 

She called to ask where I was and managed to squeezed through the violent mosh pit just for me!

 

Major love for my girl, Anis 

 

I was actually surprised she was here!

Looks like there was more of a partygirl streak in her that I didn't know :P

 

More camlovin'! 

 

boyfieKon joined us :D

 

 

Friday night was also the first time I heard 'Every Chance We Get We Run' – a collabo between Alesso & David Guetta – which you can check out on the latter's latest album : Nothing But the Beat 2.0.

 

 

Alesso dropped many familiar tracks including all his original tracks and shot us to the sky with the mighty ones that clinched the #1 spot on Beatport!

Do you remember which ones? The atmosphere was uplifted yet again with 'Years' and 'City of Dreams'.

 

Milkyway backdrop!

 

 

I looked up to the sky, raised my hands and sang (screamed, actually!) along to the beautiful lyrics.

Don't know about the rest. I was flying high as a kite to take notice of everyone else around me.

 

 

But I'm pretty damn sure everyone else enjoyed themselves during Alesso's set. I know I did 

 

Loving the cityscape backdrop!

 

 

He ended his 1.5 hour set with crowd-favorite, 'Calling (Lose My Mind)' – a 2011 collaboration with Sebastian Ingrosso, paving the way our main headliner, David Guetta to steal the show.

We yelled for an encore but Alesso didn't return :/

 

While waiting for the next act

 

Moving on….

David Guetta's entrance was nothing short of dramatic. See it for yourself! 

 

 

The helicopter-chopping sound effects & background music of his grand entrance reverberated from the giant sound systems surrounding the rave zone, invoking much suspense and anticipation from us all.

Thousands of us were chanting, "GUETTA! GUETTA! GUETTA! GUETTA! GUETTA!"

 

Finally… our World #1 DJ made his debut appearance in Malaysia!

 

 

He kick-started his 2 hour set with 'Titanium' featuring Sia which shot us all into a delirious frenzy.

YOU SHOOT ME DOWN! BUT I WON'T FALL!

I AM TITANIUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMM!

 

 

I then started live-tweeting the songs he played for my friends, readers & followers who were unable to be there!

 

 

The first 5 songs Guetta performed were :

'Titanium' feat. Sia, 'She-Wolf' feat. Sia and a remix of 'Quasar' by Hard Rock Sofa, 'Sexy Bitch' feat. Akon and 'Craissy 2k12' by DJ Obek.

 

 

The moment I heard the very hint of 'Metropolis', I went absolutely crazy! 

I loved the song so much. It was a collaboration between Guetta & Nicky Romero

 

 

A colossal burst of shimmery confetti then filled the night sky as David Guetta dropped a deeper, pulsating beat to move our feet.

He sure had the bass tomelt the face!

 

Silly selca with confetti paper which landed on me

 

I traversed into a state of ecstasy and raved like no one was watching.

 

LOL candids that boyfieKon snapped

 

 

Being amongst an exuberant crowd jumping in unison felt like we all came here for one sole reason.

To gather in the name of EDM and muster all our energy to rave the night away 

 

Guetta's crowd interaction was fab. He even jumped onto the DJ console and jumped along with us!

 

Among the rather touching and heartfelt things he said was:

"I'm so happy to be able to be here and play for you for the very first time"

"This is my first Asian tour. Looks like tonight is going to be the best night and the biggest Asian tour I've done. Over 20,000 people. WOW! Thank you for making it so special"

 

 

At one point he even brandished his French flag and waved it in the air!

 

Guetta also pumped up the crowd with his original tracks 'Sexy Bitch' feat. Akon, 'Love is Gone', 'Bad Girl'. 'Without You', 'When Love Takes Over', 'Turn Me On'. 'One Love, 'Memories' feat. Kid Cudi, 'Where Them Girls At' and a truckload more!

Other songs he remixed were 'Fix You' by Coldplay, 'Apologize' by One Republic, and I Gotta Feeling' by the Black Eyed Peas among many others.

 

Sillytimes!

 

Some of Guetta's older songs actually reminded us of our late teenage years where those famed songs will be blasting non-stop in all the clubs every weekend. 

FLASHBACK!  Think 2009's 'Sexy Bitch', 2007's 'Love is Gone' and 2009's 'When Love Takes Over' 

 

 

We sang along with him when his track went "I'M DAVID GUETTA, BITCH!" instead of "I'm in Miami, bitch!"

I found that very amusing; he was chuckling while playing that too. We could all see his smile from a mile away!

 

 

Here's a video I made of the event. Do watch it! I've spent quite a while on it :)

Watch out for the parts where David Guetta spoke to us in the crowd & jumped right on to the DJ deck with the explosion of sparklers and confetti bursts!

David Guetta & Alesso LIVE in Malaysia 2012. Enjoy! 


As Guetta clocked in his last 20 minutes of his set, boyfieKon and I decided to withdraw from the crowd & *finally* help ourselves to some ice-cold Heineken, hang out with some buddies and get a comfy place to sit down.

I didn't realize we've been standing & dancing for more than 3 hours! 

 

Hisham & us

 

Steve & us

 

Ben & I

 

Fireworks shot away from the stage and sky-rocketed into the air several times as David Guetta's set came close and closer to the end. It was magnificent! 

Looks like boyfieKon and I made the right choice to sit back and enjoy the more laidback crowd at the back lounging around compared to the insanity of the mosh pit.


Got an official photo taken for us! :D

 

Goldfish & Blink took over right after as the closing act of the night. They dropped various tracks by Hardwell, Ferry Corsten, Tiesto, Swedish House Mafia, Knife Party and many hours in their 1 hour set.

The DJ duo also included a never-heard-before song booming from the speakers. It was 'Flags', their latest, original track produced in collaboration with Sidney Samson.

It's not out yet, but we all heard it first! 

 

httpv://youtu.be/plGQNPnNCb4

Here's a little snippet to how it sounds like

 

We left soon after Goldfish & Blink finished their set. 

Wasn't looking forward to throng through the crowd all leaving at the same time but we made it.

 

We had some dimsum at Jalan Ipoh thereafter… and its good night to all!

 

 

So yes, that made my Friday a notch more exciting than usual. 

Raving & soaring to progressive, house & trance amongst 25,000 fellow EDM-ers.

A night of world-class DJs spinning, an impressive stage set-up & lighting, and good company.

 

Bring on the next rave! 

 

Thank you Future Sound Asia for a phenomenal night!

The Sunday Times VIII: Sights, sounds, adventures & eats! My week in a flash ♥

October 14, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

 

Ohai lovelies! It's Sunday again.

Feeling a little sleepy now but here's my weekly edition of The Sunday Times, as promised!

 

Apart from cooking & eating (LOL I sound like sucha fatty!), studying & working, I didn't do much fun this week except…

THE FREAKIN' WEEKEND! Friday night let's geddit on!

 

DOUBLE outfit shot! Guess where we're all dressed up to go?

 

Future Sound Asia presents David Guetta LIVE in Malaysia!

 

Our World #1 DJ made his 4th stop right here in Sepang International Circuit during his Asia Tour 2012 with special guest DJs Alesso & Kaz James. I had my mind completely blown away that night. 

We went with boyfieKon & two of my buddies, Larry & Sabrina. Major thanks for the carpool too! 

 

We truly enjoyed ourselves raving away like no one's watching!

*Full blogpost coming soon*

 

Dinner date with boyfieKon at a Manhattan-townhouse inspired restaurant : Ben's KLCC

Food was terrific! We had Mum's Cottage Pie, Wild Mushroom Quiche & the Roasted Tomato Soup.

 

I would fully-recommend the ones we had! Food & ambience deserved a 5/5 rating from me 

However, the service was deplorable (Foursquare was right!) The waiter & waitresses (except one) were hardly attentive towards their customers and even forgot to serve us our Chargrilled Rack of Lamb which we ordered along with our other meals – to which he gave 101 excuses as to why it wasn't jot down. 

 

Moving on…

 

 

Had my first ever swimming lesson thanks to Swimin12! Check 'em out 

I am now actually able to swim properly/correctly instead of paddling like a drowning puppy

 

Corporate outfit again. This time, to attend a rather corporate/business/formal event in KL city!

 

Congratulations PETRONAS on the successful launch of your

first solar photovoltaic installation system! *Full blogpost coming soon*

 

Having many massive solar panels – largest in the region, mind you! – on the rooftop of our iconic mall KLCC Petronas Twin-Towers allows electricity to be utilized from the sun's natural solar energy to power up the building 

So proud of my country & its efforts of going green with effective sustainable development!

 

 

On a random note…

 

GOSSIP GIRL SEASON 6 IS *FINALLY* OUT THIS WEEK.

Had been waiting for months on end for the season finale to premier.

 

Outfit of the day! Donned a smart-casual yet edgy wear tonight for…

 

The official launch of Samsung's latest tablet-smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Note II

I was impressed by the really cool features & user-friendliness! *Full blogpost coming soon!*

 

This week, as usual, spells being domesticated & self-sufficient again. 

Yup, cooking healthy, low-calorie food strikes again!


Fluffy Omelette with Old El Paso salsa, tomato ketchup & lotsa ground black pepper!

 

Black Peppered scrambled eggs with Tuna Chunks, Baby Romaine Lettuce & Oregano!

 

 

Oh and yes, I discovered a new-found love for beans in my cooking escapades. 

Yup, lentils are the way to go! Full of protein & fibre 

 

Haricot Beans baked in tomato paste & rock salt, Romaine Lettuce, 

Omega Eggs, Oatmeal flakes with lots of Thyme & Oregano!

 

 

Stir-fry garlic Iceberg Lettuce & Moroccan Chickpeas 

on buttered Wholegrain Toast + Roast Carrots glazed in Raw Maple Syrup

 

Middle-Eastern style Chickpea Stew with Spinach, 

Carrots, Basil & a Sunny Side Up Omega egg!

 

Combo Salad of Iceberg Lettuce, hard-boiled Omega Eggs, Steamed Chickpeas, 

Onions, Mashed Tuna & Ranch with Tomato ketchup & Parsley!

 

Sounds good? I had so much fun in my kitchen cooking all those delightful, healthy bites :)

Speaking of which, I just returned from doing some grocery-shopping at Jaya Grocer

 

Some of the foodstuff that will keep me going throughout next week!

 

My apologies for the delay in certain overdue blogposts, will have them up throughout this week & the next!

I have an exam tomorrow & during the little time I was ever at home, been trying my best to slot in the most study-time I could. Can't believe I had to forgo my gym trainings all week too. Bummer!:/

 

Pretty short edition tonight, I've really gotta go! Imma burn the midnight oil tonight to make sure I'm well-prepared for tomorrow's exam.

Have a superb seven days ahead, dear readers!
