Partying on the beach with Heineken! | Footie fans kicks off to Ibiza, Spain for the UEFA Champions League

May 29, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 

That Saturday night was a series of back-to-back partying for me.

After blogging about this event, I figured that I'd publish the sequel to the previous post I wrote on the Heineken Kick-Off to Ibiza party today.

I made my way to Mines Wellness Hotel KL in Seri Kembangan in anticipation for a night of good food, good drinks, good company and to watch 30 contestants battle it out to win themselves an all-expense paid trip and VIP experience to watch the screening of UEFA Champions League (UCL) Finale.

 

Hello from the beach!

 

I arrived a little after 7pm at the hotel. It was my first time at Mines Resort City! devil

Aku tidak pernah berkunjung ke kawasan ini sebelum tu! Jadi, malam itu bagai penjelajahan baru untuk aku!

 

The registration booth

 

Arriving Mines Wellness Hotel lobby. Now, where's the party? wink

 

The drinks bar

 

To get to the beach, I had to enter a cave-like passage way

 

There was so much excitement by the seaside and adrenalin was on the high!

A myriad of activities were ongoing the moment I arrived, coupled with quizzes, hunts and a mind-boggling Question & Answer session for the participants to outdo themselves for a spot in the Top-3! 30 of them has come this far to the finals, and today's challenge was the only barricade to their victory.

If you hadn't already guessed from the title yet, they be watching the UCL in VIP-style at…

 

No where else but the heavily celebrated party capital of the world – Ibiza, Spain

 

Imagine that! What I'd give to be flown VIP-style to the party central of my dreams!

With a combination of intelligence, imagination and inventiveness, three Malaysians emerged as winners.

 

They are: Yeoh Keng Meng, Lim Sze Hue and Joel Hoshea Munjan

Congratulations to the three of you! laugh You deserved it.

 

Beer showers anyone? laugh

 

They will be joining more than 200 Heineken fans from around the world in an ultra-luxurious VIP experience at the UCL Final viewing event in Ibiza — which will see the best of football and music culminating in one spectacular event.

Wish I could be there too! cool

 

Have a great time in Ibiza, you guys! yes

 

After the announcement of winners, dinner was served. 

We were treated to a generous buffet of both local and continental delights spread across long tables.

 

Let's eat!

 

I remember enjoying a delightful array of food for dinner.

From seafood spaghetti, roast lamb, & chicken to fish, noodles,crabs & ice-cream, they had it all.

 

There was even a satay corner where beef and chicken satay were made fresh off the grill for us!

 

For the sweet-tooth in all of us! My favorite was the cheesecake laugh

 

Buddies Casey, Nath and I getting our foodies on

 

Spotted an awesome chillout spot made of wooden crates! yes  How ingenious.

 

Needless to say, that was where I spent the rest of my night with Heineken! devil

 

The partyheat was steadily rising as the night progressed

 

Hurrah! More of my buddies arrived! Don, Yuki and I smiley

 

With my gorgeous girls Zana, Karmun and Yuki

 

Yuki and I with our Heinekens

 

Boooooo!

Hailing from Penang and now residing in KL – hear us hollllaaa for Heineken!

 

The party was thrown on a much smaller scale this time but I had a good time partying with my mates.

And of course, indulging in several helpings of drinks, cheesecakes and satays. 

Guilty as charged! But hey, they were too good to pass… blush

 

Went home with some limited edition merchandize as well.

Thanks for the gifts, Heineken! heart

 

Winners Keng Meng, Sze Hue and Joel will set sail this month for the Heineken Ibiza Final and will experience the best of football and music in the world’s party and nightlife capital – Ibiza, Spain. 

Is there space left in any of your luggage to slip me in? cheeky Genuine question. Haha!

 

Congratulations once again!

Have fun on your ultra-luxurious VIP experience at the UCL final screening in Ibiza devil

 

Thank you, Heineken Malaysia and the team for a great night heart

More good times ahead!

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

May 26, 2013 by thejessicat
 
 
 

Thanks to Wesak Day being a public holiday, I’m back in Penang now for the long weekend!

One of the best things about living in Malaysia is the insane amount of public holidays we have, I swear.

It’s so awesome that it’s ridiculous.

 

Our public holidays consist of holidays at national & state levels, royal installations, birthdays of the who’s who in our governing body, religious purposes and the fact that we comprise several different races would mean Malaysians observe almost every festive occasion there is to celebrate. 

 

Holidays can only spell more fun times out and about! laugh

 

Cuti awam, cuti umum, semua cuti pun kiterang sapu! Macam tiap2 hari ade cuti. Seronok giler!

It's crazy I know but hey, I'm not complaining! laugh

 

My purpose of returning to Penang this time was to visit and spend quality time with my family.

In the afternoon, we adjourned for some Japanese food, shopping and coffee. heart

 

Just the weekend outfit of the day

 

Candid of my holding granny's hand. Priceless photograph. heart

 

May 24, 2013 | Having a late #lunch with the #family at Sakae #Sushi! by imthejessicat on Keek.com

Hello from Sakae Sushi, Queensbay Mall! laugh

 

Coffee sesh with the family 

(Pardon the coincidental blinking by two people)

 

Had coffee right after

 

Uncle Mikey and I

 

At night, we were booked in for a nice Chinese banquet dinner at Jade Blosson Restaurant at Krystal Point. This is to celebrate the homecoming of one of my favorite cousins, Kevin, who came back to visit from Los Angeles, with his newly-built family. laugh

 

Couzzie Kevin and I

(P/S: He doesn't have sleepy eyes, just wasn't looking into the camera lens LOL)

 

As far as I can remember, I’ve never exactly been too fond of children and babies. indecision

I just don’t fathom how everybody finds them so amusing – give me cats anytime. They’re far more affectionate and entertaining.

 

Can't believe I'm an aunt already! surprise

 

Tonight, I held a toddler for the first time. He wriggled initially and I freaked out, but we eventually got along just fine. I was just happy I didn’t drop the kid. yes

 

Photographic evidence that I ain't too shabby with children perhaps? cheeky

Say hello to my 2 year old nephew. The very charming little one – Caleb.

 

How cute is he? Adorable beyond words! heart

 

I think we are naturally gifted at posing for photographs HAHAHA

 

Dinner ensued at last, and more merriment soon followed. 

This was what we were served in our eight course dinner. (Photos aren't too pretty this time – sorry!)

 

Traditional Peking Duck (Skin) served with Chinese Pancakes and Condiments

★★★✩✩

 

Yam Ring Basket

★★★★✩

 

Chinese Herbal Chicken

★★★★★

 

Deep Fried Sweet and Sour Garupa Fish

★★✩✩✩

 

Traditional Peking Duck (meat)

★★★★★

 

Spinach Soup

★★✩✩✩

 

Braised Pork Belly

★★★✩✩

 

Pumpkin with Minced Meat and Dried Shrimp

★★★★★

 

To my surprise, my family didn’t fancy the food at all. LOL I think granny's expression says it all

 

I had no complaints, though.

What really left an impression were my two favorites, the Steamed Herbal Chicken and the Peking Duck.

The chicken was incredibly tender; bursting with a hint of Chinese herbal essences with each bite. The duck was tastefully done. It was so aromatic and flavorful; cooked to just the right texture – not too soft nor too chewy.yes

I was helping myself to them both one after another uncontrollably. cheeky

 

The interior

 

The rest? Well… it wasn’t bad neither was it exceptionally good either.

I’d say it is just your average Chinese dinner fare.

 

***

 

The very next day, I made plans with Kevin and his lovely wife Rachel (whom I clicked with very well!) to spend some time together for an afternoon of lunch and coffee. heart

You know, being cousins, it’ll be nice to do some cousin-to-cousin catching up and bonding sans the entire family.

 

Saturday outfit of the day

 

We went to my favorite restaurant in Queensbay Mall to have lunch.

It was T.G.I Friday’s! laugh Here's some of the food we had:

 

Jack Championship BBQ Beef Ribs

★★★★✩

 

Baked Potato Skins with Bacon & Cheese

[No ratings because I didn’t have any – but they seemed to like it!]

 

Baked Stuffed Mushrooms

★★★★✩

 

We didn't want to leave just yet – too engrossed in our world of conversations!

Coffee was at Old Town White Coffee, Queensbay Mall.

 

I never regretted making plans with them that afternoon.

 

There was so much catching up to do with Kevin, while Rachel and I got to know each other better. We talked, we ate, we laughed the afternoon away. I foresee myself jet-setting to Los Angeles sometime next year! 😀

Have a safe flight back to the US of A, guys! kiss

 

***

 

Being back in Penang for the long weekend, I wouldn’t miss a chance to party on my beloved island.

Especially when my bestest buddies are around with me! heart

 

The night was Richard Durand presented by Twelve XII, QEII On the Sea and Heineken.

 

Partied with my fave Penang buddies! devil

 

He played, in equal parts, uplifting trance as well as progressive trance. His remixes were wicked! yes

 

Thanks to Sam for the help, I got to take a photo with world #89 Richard Durand himself.

 

***

 

After a hectic Thursday night, Saturday night was another night of partying.

It was Hennessy Artistry Penang! 

 

Suffered a very, very bad hairday so I decided to tie all my hair up for the night

I was surprised when I got told numerous times that I looked nice with my hair done up. surprise

 

Hennessy Artistry Penang was amazing, as usual.

It was fantastic being able to catch up and party with some of my favorite Penang friends again, as well as my buddies from KL.

 

The interior was magnificent!

 

May 25, 2013 | Thank you @HennessyMY for another great #party! I had a great time ❤ #hennessyartistry #penang by imthejessicat on Keek.com

More in another blog post.

Oh and… I got myself a new tattoo (again). laugh

One every year since the year 2007 and counting!

 

Remember the one that I sketched on my shoulder with markers?

 

Part of it came to life.

More in a full blog post soon.

 

Clearly, I had a great weekend. But what’s been happening earlier in the week? 

Gym, as usual. Decided to switch my routines to more interval and circuit ones for maximum efficiency.

 

Had time in between sets to steal a piccie

 

Weights. This is for the abductors and adductors

 

Barbells are my favorite

 

And so is the spinning/RPM sessions!

 

What else? Been cooking. A whole lot.

Here are some pictures of my post-workout meals to make you hungry hehe cheeky

 

Hardboiled omega eggs with sliced tomatoes, tuna chunks,

cottage cheese and lettuce on wholewheat toast

 

Fluffy giant salmlon omelette and sides of garlic,

stir-fried organic pea-sprouts in olive oil and kidney beans

 

Platter of four: Grilled Shitake mushrooms and tomatoes, boiled carrots and steamed broccoli

 

Pan-fried brown rice in olive oil, eggs, kidney beans, organic peasprouts

with lots of garlic, quinoa, basil and black pepper! 

treasure pocket of brown rice baked in ricotta cheese & garlic, salmon, green & yellow zucchini,

baby carrots, pea sprouts and egg with a dash of quinoa seeds & black pepper!
 

 

Also been having sleepless nights. (Don’t ask why)

 

The things you do when you can't sleep.

 

My week also saw me going to Publika for the very first time.

I KNOW, I KNOW. DON'T CHIDE ME. Yes, believe it or not I have not been there ever. Well, I just had no specific reason of being there neither did I make the effort to drive there to check the place out or make any plans there. sad

But that night, thanks to my buddies, plans were made at Publika!

We went to The Red Beanbag for dinner and drinkies at Barfly after. 

 

Wednesday night with my girls and the rest (not pictured)

 

Desserts after dinner at The Red Beanbag

More in a full post soon!

 

Had also been shopping at fashion bazaars!

The most recent one was the Markets @ Jaya One fashion flea marketheart

 

Girls day out. En route for shopping and lunchie! devil

 

We bought lots of pretty pieces. I think I ended up with a few dresses, tops and skirts.

Photo credits to Ning. Thanks girl! xo

 

Random, irrrelevant photo of my cat being confused as to why his picture is taken

 

Caught my sleeping child on the table LOL devil

 

I woke up one day to find that my black kitty has turned snow-white.

LOL kidding. 

 

Last weekend was also BestiePam’s birthday!

It was a house-party at her crib and the theme was supposedly ‘Pyjama Party’ but I was the only guest who showed up in pyjamas. Grr. cryingcrying

Fell in love with Rama's bunny slippers at the party and kept wearing it.

How can anyone not love this giant, fluffy thing? heart

 

Random photo of the other half and I during her party

 

We played the classic Kings Cup!

 

Watched them down Jagermeister trains! It's cooler than regular Jagerbombs methinks.

 

Happy birthday Pammy, I enjoyed the party! Hope you liked the birthday present I got you smiley

 

Later that week, I was invited to a Star Trek Into the Darkness movie screening in Cathay Cineplex thanks to TalkFILM.

 

 

Never one to be into science-fiction action movies, I found myself scratching my head in dismay for the most part of the movie.

Admittedly, I have never watched any of the previous Star Trek movies and I stand completely at polar ends of being a trekkie. blush

 

 

From a complete trekkie-noob standpoint, I found Spock rather peculiar-looking.

Oh and I could't help but to tune out without realizing and found myself organizing my schedule for the coming week on my PDA. Despite trying my level best, my attention span for this movie was next to nothing. I wasn’t even paying any attention half the time. I felt bad but ultimately felt better when I heard some snoring coming from the back of my seat.

Looks like it isn’t just me who found this movie utterly boring, eh? blush

 

May 16, 2013 | Just got back from the movie screening of Star Trek Into Darkness! Go watch it!

 

Give me back Star Wars anytime.

Perhaps I would appreciate Star Trek better if I had a better comprehension of it, though I enjoyed watching Captain Kirk in action. I thought he was rather hot.

 

After the movie!

 

***

 

One afternoon, I found a pretty ingenious way of eating my favorite Secret Recipe cake, the White Dark Chocolate Cheesecake.

Though it may gross some of you out, I figured that I am going to share it regardless.

 

So this was what I did.

 

I cut off a spoonful of cake and dipped it into my cup of Flat White coffee for a few seconds before lifting it up and putting it straight into my mouth. devil

Having white chocolate, dark chocolate and cheese mulled together into a cake is good enough, now with a touch of coffee-flavour? I’m a genius! LOL.

Sedap giler, percaye aku tak? Cube sendiri pastu habaq kat i camne okey? Haha.

 

Jokes aside, I loved how it tasted.heart

 

Dipping it into hot coffee made the crumbly chocolate half at the bottom disintegrate with moist, producing a wonderful melt-in-your-mouth texture.

And the cake wasn’t cold anymore, obviously. Not that I minded having it served cold – this was just so much better! Try it… and tell me what you think! 

 

So there you have it, a wrap-up of my busy fortnight.

Have a good week ahead, folks. Make every single day count! laugh

 

Much love,

kissJessicat

Wanna go to Heineken’s Kick-off to Ibiza Finale Challenge Party? | Mines Wellness Hotel KL

April 25, 2013 by thejessicat

 

It's that time of the year again where all the parties seem to collide back-to-back with each other every weekend (and even weekday nights).

So, before you guys ask me what parties there are lined up for this week, I'll let you in on some details!

 

One of the many events that will be happening this weekend is Heineken's Kick-off to Ibiza party!

 

I received a very creative and crafty invitation from Heineken early this week

It was in the form of a message in a bottle! Sweet yes

 

Thanks to Heineken, I have had the pleasure to party at almost all their music and rave parties alike.

And honestly? I really have to give it to the folks at Heineken for all the incredible parties they throw!  They really, really know how to win every avid partygoer's heart. heart

 

Heil, Heineken! wink

 

Take these pictures from last year's Heineken Progressive Party, for example.

 

GREAT MUSIC

A long night of bass-jacking tracks and progressive beats! devil

 

 

 

GREAT TIMES AND FREE-FLOW OF HEINEKEN

Good times with buddies and party-mates and not remembering how many bottles we all chugged! cool

 

 

 

GREAT LOCATION

Where else but my homeland, Penang Island?

 

At the classy Mansion 32 along Upper Penang Road

 

They transformed the entire dining area into party central!

 

See? Told you I've always had good times at Heineken parties. 

This time round, Heineken's going to bring their party-scene a notch higher.

 

Recognize this place?

 

Ring any bells yet?

 

How about now?

 

Are you sure?

 

IT'S IBIZA, BABY! PARTY CENTRAL OF THE UNIVERSE, HOT DAMN! cool

 

The clock is ticking as the Heineken Ibiza Final contest officially ends this Saturday. Heineken is giving Malaysians the chance to watch the screening of UEFA Champions League (UCL) Final VIP-style in the party capital of the world – Ibiza, Spain.

The only catch is that the Heineken Ibiza Final tickets are hidden in a secret location somewhere in Klang Valley and fans are encouraged to collaborate via social media activities in order to be one step closer to finding out where the tickets are! devil

 

 

Once the location is revealed, 80 lucky football fans will be invited to participate in the Heineken Ibiza Finale Challenge where they will have to display their skills through a combination of charm, imagination and inventiveness to be rewarded with this ultimate football and music experience.

Hmm.. I wonder what they have to do… angelangel Heh. Heh. Heh.

 

You know an epic, hardcore party is in store for you if it's a Heineken party cool

 

The top three winners will join 250 Heineken fans from around the world in an ultra luxurious all expense-paid VIP experience at the UEFA Champions League Final viewing event Heineken-style in no where else but the party capital of the world – Ibiza, Spain.

To stand a chance to win:

1) Log on to Heineken’s official Facebook page OR

2) Head to any participating Heineken outlets nationwide (most clubs and bars)

enlightenedContest ends on 20th April 2013. enlightened

 

Trust these chaps, they sure know how to party deliriously hard devil

And you heard that from me wink

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!

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!

Full raving speed ahead with the Heineken Progressive Tour spanning Malaysia!

September 12, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

 

During the weekend, I flew up to Penang Island to attend a hardcore indoor rave, all thanks to Heineken!

Yup, you guessed it. It's none other than the Heineken Progressive Tour.

 

I've always loved Heineken's parties.

So much energy brimming from my partysoul whenever I'm thrashing about at their dance floor!

 

One that somehow landed me on our local newspaper, The Sun last Friday.

 

Before I share the photos of my weekend trip and the mad-awesome time at Heineken Progressive Party at 32 The Mansion in Penang, I'd like to announce that the celebration continued with their regional tour in Ipoh and Johor 

 

Remember this Heineken bottle launch party? *click*

 

In conjunction with that launch of Heineken's new bottle in the city, the Heineken Progressive Tour keeps the party momentum going with the same experience heating up 3 more states in Malaysia!

So if you missed the KL, Penang and Ipoh one, don't fret.

 

 

Mark your calenders for this Saturday, 15th September 2012!

Heineken Progressive Tour will be jet-setting down to Johor Bahru's Lost Malaya

 

 

Mini Compo, Nick Haydez, DJ Faith and KBnL Dancefloor Hell will be your entertainment for the night 

See you there!
