Raving to Shogun and B.T at Global Sound System! | Music Conference Asia 2013 @ Sepang

May 18, 2013 by thejessicat
 

That Saturday was a superbly busy one for me!

Thanks to Global Sound Masters, I found myself speeding down the highway to attend Global Sound System all the way in Sepang International Circuit, right after another event (more about that later).

 

Safely arrived at Global Sound System in Sepang.

Thank you Nelson, for getting us there safely! heart

 

This what what I saw from the afar as I was entering the party zone. Wait for me!

 

Managed to snap a quick photo and immediately ran to the front to be part of the rave!

I was so upset that I missed the earlier acts, as I arrived rather late. frown 

 

Dahla tu, sampai lambat sangat! crying

Was looking forward to watch them spin so much. This was what I missed:

 

Mr. Nasty & GuruGuru

 

Judge Jules

 

Felix Da Housecat

 

Alex Kenji

 

Fortunately, I managed to catch two of my favorites, Shogun and B.T perform alongside the host of the night, MC Stretch. laughlaugh

With these powerhouses, I have no doubts that the remaining hours I have left of the night will be blast!

 

It was a hive of activity and a psychedelic dance arena in there!

 

The Global Sound System music festival was deemed a success with big support and attendance coming from both true blue music enthusiasts and party goers alike.

You know how we electronic dance music party punters are like – to never miss a rave! cool

 

The energy brimming from both the DJs and the crowd was spectacular!

 

Over 5000 revellers filled the mosh pit and all corners of the party zone to catch the stellar mix of international talents of electronic dance music. I was no exception.

Hurriedly, I went down into the mosh pit to let my hair down and go absolutely beserk riding the waves of progressive music that was blasting from the larger-than-life sized speakers! devil

 

The ever-so-amazing Shogun!

 

Shogun, a popular Asian American DJ-Producer of Armin Van Buuren's Armada Music record-label fame, turned up my party dial the very moment I amalgamated with my fellow ravers into the mosh pit – right in front of the stage!

As a ardent fan of Shogun's tracks, I was always hoping that he would come to Malaysia to perform, and guess what? Global Sound Masters made my wish come true. wink

 

Shogun slamming bass-jacking tracks for the night

 

The legendary music maestro definitely did not disappoint as he spewed an incredibly extensive set of progressive as well as uplifting trance beats.

I found myself singing along to the vocal tracks and furiously fist-pumping the sky when the beat warped a notch heavier. cool

 

Clearly, we were in a world of our own raving to Shogun's music

 

Despite raving on the dance floor till the skies come down, I made my way back to the VIP deck to party there with my buddies as well.

Here are some photos of me and two of my girlfriends! kiss

 

Yuki and I

 

Take two.

 

They say the third time is a charm smiley

 

Sam and I with our Asahi cans

 

Zana and I stayed in a corner when the boys began to pour beer onto each other's head

Yikes! Count us out of that! surprise

 

The crowd showed no signs of stopping even after hours of mad raving!

 

Right after Shogun, B.T took to the decks and showed us what he was made of.

As if the party couldn't get any heavier! We welcomed B.T on stage with roars of cheers and whistles cool

 

Helllllllllloooo Brian Transeau

 

The highly reputable Grammy-nominated music producer, platinum-selling artist, film composer and technologist Brian Transeau (B.T) wasted no time in delivering wicked tracks and addictive beats.

His big sounds boomed tonight's party scene to the next level! yes

 

 

B.T's electronica dance-floor destroyers got the crowd raving like there was no tomorrow.

His set included my favorite track of his, 'This Must Be The Love', a fine collaboration with Arty and Nadia Ali.

 

Look at him go! heart 

Lihatlah kehandalannya. Hebat sungguh BT nih!

 

Somewhere on the center-left, was where I am. If you can spot me, I applaud your eyesight! yes

Actually, don't even try cheeky It's an impossible feat when we look like grains of sugar on the screen.

 

Take a look at B.T himself instead

 

 

His tracks transcended the dance floor all the way to the VIP deck where my buddies and I were.

Sometime into the night, I think the drinks began to do the talking.

 

 

 

 

 

Yup, affirmative. Crazy times with my buddies ensued, made even better with endless flow of Asahi Beer.

B.T was still taking on the night in full swing! cool

 

The motion of the laser beams spun faster than all our heartbeats combined!

 

Just Sam pouring Asahi beer onto my hair. Yeah, thanks angry

Malam tu, i kena basuh rambut kuat-kuat tau? Semua habis berlekatan dengan bir! angryangry

 

I wasn't the only one! crying

 

Throughout the entire night, Global Sound System featured a very recognizable and special guest, MC Stretch to catapult the party scene to levels of infinity and beyond!

 

If his name doesn't ring a bell, I'm pretty sure you would have heard his VOICE.

Nada suaranya yang mengagumkan dan kebolehannya sebagai pengacara pasti

meninggalkan kesan pada hati-hati kita yang terlibat dalam kemeriahan ini! heart

 

Magisterial, loud, authoritative and clear voice at music festivals of international fame? wink

 

Yup, it was the voice of MC Stretch that boomed throughout the entire rave of the famed Tomorrowland 2012 in Belgium, Armin Van Buuren's Armin Only World Tour and countless dance music festivals around the globe. 

Hearing his voice at Global Sound System made me feel like I've traversed oceans to party in Europe's world-class rave parties!

Don't know how; don't know why. But he just has this effect on me. wink

 

 

Thanks to my buddies and Define, I also got to party at the DEFINE VIP deck. heart

Like you have saw earlier in this post, we were treated to free-flow of Asahi and a perfect, elevated view of the stage and crowd!

Here are some photos:

 

 

That Saturday spelled an exciting one for me. devil

Good drinks, good company of friends, great music and great line-up! We sure had a lot of fun dancing, headbanging and partying our weekend away.

 

Don't stop the music just yet! The night was still young.

 

To see how epic the night was, check out Global Sound System's official after-movie!

 

 

The very same organizers will also be bringing down one of my favorite Trance producers and World #7 DJ Dash Berlin, to crank up the rave party scene for us here in Malaysia! 

 

 

I've watched Dash Berlin twice, but I've still not gotten enough of him just yet.

This Dutch DJ is amazing with vocal trance, uplifting trance and infectious progressive trance beats too. My favorites from him include 'Better Half of Me' and 'Disarm Yourself'.

His world tour is certainly something you shouldn't miss. Make sure I see you there! devil

 

I had a kick-ass time that night. Thank you Global Sound Masters!

Looking forward to the next rave cool  Pergi, faham? Jangan tak pergi! laugh

The only club with a Buddha concept! Partying by the sea at Alumbra | Central Pier @ Docklands, Melbourne

July 19, 2011 by thejessicat

 

 

I've always liked the sea/seaside/beach concept of things.

Complemented with awesome music, bass, drinks & crowd, you can never go wrong; which is why I was convinced that Alumbra was my favorite club in Melbourne!

 

I swear I don't remember painting my nails pink? 

 

Alumbra's tagline is Music, Life, Culture.

It was pretty apt for a club of its kind, as you will see soon enough.

 

Located along a harbour, it's no wonder you can see heaps of boats, ships and yachts around

 

The canopy walkway before we arrived the entrance

Good for rainy days

 

Okay, so what's with the culture part of the tagline?

I was shocked upon seeing this MASSIVE BUDDHA HEAD inside by the bar

 

WOW.

 

Although I doubt this club as anything to do with or affiliated with Buddhism, the concept just blew my mind.

Apart from the bar, there were more statues and heads of Buddha at the main dance floor too.

 

But it's fairly awkward, no? It's like, the Buddhists would probably think "oh no, Buddha is watching me drink"

Likewise, I'd feel uncomfy if a statue of Jesus was watching me drink and party away.

 

Get ready for some shots!

 

There was just an amazing variety of drinks to choose from!

 

Tim was awesome enough to bring me here!

Thanks heaps 😀

 

 

Met some really cool people too. Culture fusion indeed!

Italian guy on my right, Japanese guy on my left. 

 

Thank you for the fabulous evening, Tim! 

I enjoyed myself.

 

If you guys happen to be in Melbourne, do remember to make a stop at Alumbra.

You won't miss it! It's by the pier, just follow the sea and it'll lead you here 😀

Fashion, music n' fun! The Underground Dominants of Project UNDO @ The Opera, Sunway

December 31, 2010 by thejessicat

 

One rainy afternoon on a Thursday, I made my way to Project UNDO.

LOL the tagline was something that goes along the lines of "too little time, too much to undo"

So kinkeh!

 

 

Anyway, its a series of Underground events which involves fashion and music. (Don't ask me why it's underground. It got me scratching my head in confusion too) And the dress code was 'UNDERGROUND'.

And! I had no idea in hell how to dress 'underground' so I resorted to wearing earthy, brown and ground colours. Thankfully, I found the one and only brown top I own. Looks like brown had never been my colour huh 😛

 

Yeah I was trying to look as brown and underground as possible.

Any browner and I'd turn into a mole or a pile of sand

 

Was there with my pals all the way from Penang and some of my gurls here! 😀

 

 

We all had lotsa fun and was treated to lotsa booze at the VIP terrace upstairs on the 2nd floor.

If i remember correctly, there was Johnnie Walker black label, Glenmorangie and beers throughout the night!

 

By the sofas & balcony

 

By the drinks bar

 

Finally, the show began. It took a good long 2 hours to start after its scheduled time.

The party was to begin at 7pm but it only began somewhere after 9pm. Grr! But issokay, good company and drinks kept us busy anyway

 

Cassandra Patrick was the MC while violinist Arthur Tan started the ball rolling for the night

 

Magic Show! See that girl lying on top of the sharp point? Insane.

Sorry fo overexposed shot but that's Rosen Roy the magician/illusionist in red

 

She could totally be a devotee for Thaipusam while she's at it, since needles and spears don't seem to hurt her.

Anyway, here's our view from the top terrace 🙂

 

 

Fashion show began and it showcased classic collections and some pretty unique pieces from local designers like Jimmy Lim, Joe Chia, Alexandrea Yeo, Allien Gan and MNEP 🙂

The gambit was instead of playing the same old "catwalk tracks" while the models are strutting down the runway, Project Underground saw local pop/punk/rock bands playing live for all of us.

 

Local punk rock outfit, An Honest Mistake!

 

And that's my friend Leonard playing right in front.

Can't believe he spontaneously followed suit and "catwalked" with the models as well LOLOL 😛

 

More and more performers took the stage and they were local DJs DJ Nas T and DJ Tareeq, Scottish DJ Dayshavoo, local rock band Underheadlights and 19 year old beatboxer Koujee.

Camwhoring and partying continues!

 

A tad off-focused but memorable all the same

Double iconic brass ring by Soak Republic

 

 

We left somewhere past midnight.

It was a working day tomorrow yo! Can't stay up too late.

 

And just before I left, bumped into Andy at the doorway, and he took a shot of us.

One for the road babeh!

 

That was how my Thursday working weeknight was spent…. at Project UNDO!

Guess who? Lady Gaga is going to DiGi Pimp My Music party @ Zouk tonight!

November 11, 2010 by thejessicat

 

Courtesy of Nuffnang, I was invited for tonight's DiGi Pimp My Music party at Velvet Underground @ Zouk.

Best part is, the last day of my exams are TODAY!!

 

Woots! So why wouldn't I go? I absolutely love love love costume parties and if you've been reading my blog for long, I've been to a number of themeparties for the past few years! 😀 😀

 

As exams just finished today, I thought I would just go dressed up as a normal person. Doubt I have time to go pick and plan my costume! But hey, I changed my mind. Made props, dressed up and rented stuff would go perfectly for my Lady Gaga character tonight.

 

Introducing you… *drumroll*

TheJessiGaga!

 

 

 

For those who will be going, I'll see ya there aight?

Let's have some fun this beat is sick, I got my head and my heart on the dance floor! 😀
