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

September 16, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

 

Happy Sunday lovelies!

My past seven days were likened to a happy breeze kicking up colourful leaves on an Autumn evening

I was back in form. Cheerful &  brimming with smiles, compared to last week's dreadful crawl of a week

 

 

Out and about on a sunny afternoon!

 

 

Oh and to my fellow Malaysian people, HAPPY MALAYSIA DAY!

Yup, for you non-Malaysian readers, today is Malaysia's birthday and we are 49 years old. 

 

———-TRIVIA ———

 

Malaysia Day is NOT to be confused with our National/Independence Day,

which was celebrated some two weeks ago on the 31st August.

 

Today, 49 years ago, the formation of four independent nations : 

Malaya, Sabah, Sarawak & Singapore gave rise to a new nation….

and that new nation was Malaysia.

 

16th September 1963 was the very day we became a country of our own! 

HAPPY 49TH BIRTHDAY TO MY BELOVED COUNTRY MALAYSIA 

——————————–

 

Anyway, what made my week this time round?

We'll see :

 

 

Headed to The Pool KL in Ampang for a food review of their Japanese restaurant, Kyoto Lab

Being a Japanese food enthusiast, the excellent quality, taste & choice of meals exceeded my expectations!

Full blogpost coming soon!

 

 

Slowly regained my appetite again and indulged in some comfort food

Traditional American Pancake Stack by Paddington's House of Pancakes @ The Curve

 

For some reason, those pancakes that I had above tasted like cardboard & had a rubbery texture. 

What happened to the soft, fluffy, melt-in-your mouth pancakes I always used to have?  This makes the avid pancake-fan in me, sad :/

 

 

Had some retail therapy to make me happy.

Hey, who doesn't love pretty things in pretty boxes? :D:D

 

 

Char Tang Hoon in SS2 Pasar Malam (night market)

Only RM3.50 and was superb! 

 

 

Dinnertimes with the magician boys Andrew & JB :D

We hung out at Delicious @ Mid Valley Megamall and I'd fully recommend the…..

 

Pumpkin Soup with chopped almonds! 

It's a new item in the menu. It was flavourful, not too creamy & just the right texture 

 

 

Party time at NSFW presents : 12th Planet all the way from Los Angeles, USA!

I jumped right onto the podium (and made bestie Pam join me up there!) and I shooked 12th Planet's hand! 

Thanks for the photo Pam xx

 

The heavy dubstep-DnB artist shot our faces to full colour once he took control of the party

 

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HOLr0jqnCI&feature=player_detailpage

Song of the week! I love Zedd, 'nuff said 

This was the song that 12th Planet boomed and catapulted me to rave on the podium!

 

 

Just a lil SELCA again

Headed out for dinner with my suede grey fedora & a buttoned American flag blouse!

 

 

Made some dinner. Inspired by popular Arabic dish, Shakshouka

Baked eggs, tomatoes, onions, black pepper and cumin!

 

 

Got a little SELCA crazy whilst stuck in a jam. How narcissistic, I know 

 

 

Found something extremely relevant whilst I was caught on the LDP traffic jam

Why that highway is congested even at 3PM is beyond me. But that's something to think about, no? :P

 

 

Spent my entire Saturday with theboyfie in Borders-Starbucks, The Curve.

He was reading the new book he bought, The Great Mortality by John Kelly,

while I was working away on some of my blogging & photo editing. 

 

 

Attended another one of the Arthur's Day celebrations in Sid's Pub @ TTDI today

Gee, I love the month-long celebrations! So much merriment 

 

To Arthur! 

 

 

Dinner at TGI Friday's @ Sunway Pyramid! 

For the non-health conscious, I'd recommend the Deep Fried Mac & Cheese balls 

 

Should you prefer a healthier meal, I'd recommend the Stuffed Mushrooms with ground beef!

It's served with bruschetta toppings and pretty damn delicious too 

 

 

Dennis & I :) Just came back from Youth Jam, held in Sunway Pyramid!

I was the judge for the blogging competition by Youth Jam-SONY's National Blogger Festival

So happy to be able to lend my support to the movement and youth empowerment 

 

 

And that wraps up my seven days this time round.

It was a pretty average week, with some good news (still a secret at the moment!) to share very soon!

 

Just a little secret (well, not so secret anymore!) I'm pursuing magic & aim to learn a new language.

A while back, I promised a certain French magician that when I go to Paris one day, I'm going to impress him with my magic performance and a particular mentalism/illusion trick. And I will. 

 

That being said, have an awesome seven days ahead dearies.

And to my Malaysian readers, enjoy tomorrow's public holiday thanks to Malaysia Day! :D:D

 

 

Much love,

Jessicat

We be dubstepping rooftop high with Skream & Benga LIVE in Malaysia! NSFW Tracksuit Party @ Vertigo, The Gardens

February 4, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

As a regular at rave parties and the like, it never occurred to me that I've never attended a dubstep party before.

All the raves I've been to revolved around trance, techno, electro, house, hardstyle or a medley of them all.

 

But not dubstep.

Until tonight.

 

Part of ze clan and I 

 

It was the night of 2 prominent Dubstep pioneers-cum-producers

Their time to shine…hailing all the way from United Kingdom :


None other than Skream and Benga themselves! 

 

Tonight's gonna be a good, good night indeed.

We be raving to the most anticipated Dubstep party and…

 

…the other half finally landed in Malaysia! 

 

The boys from Budculture and Cee X H3 soundsystem opened with a bass-dropping set!

They drove the crowd wild – yours truly & the clan included! 

 

Tonight was the first time we ever raved in a different way. 

Heaps of popping, locking, dropping, shuffling, stomping and tectonic moves as well!

 

This calls for more, are you with me? 😀

 

We gurls be rippin' the dance floor! 😀 😀

 

Keep it going boys! Wub wub wub wub wubbbbbbb

 

Ze clan and I had a smashing time.

Pictures are self-explanatory 🙂

 

Buddy Pam and I 

 

Raving to towards a whole new dimension!

 

And it just never stops

 

OBEY… CEE! Such heavy dubstep warps the night into a Transformers battle

Autobots & Decepticons… major pwnage! 

 

Sure, Fry. Sure.

The boyfie and I – our first time raving together IN MALAYSIA!

Imma show you how we Malaysians party… till the morning light! 

 

And when the night strikes 1AM, Skream and Benga steals the limelight. 

 

Make way for these legends!

 

They shot the party to the skies the very moment they hit the decks

 

 

I've never, ever heard dubstep of all variants being performed right in fronta of my very eyes before.

Yup, I still had to digest the fact that Skream & Benga are here.. right here on our Malaysian soil.

 

Sucha durrrty durrrty set!

 

Jump, jump, jump!

You are my cinema.. a Hollywood treasure 

 

After what felt like hours of non-stop tectonic, crumping, popping, locking  and dropping to the heavy bass, synths and snares, Skream proceeded to escalate the party.  

Quite literally, in fact.

 

Yup, he rose and stood on top of the DJ table while dubbing!

 


It was so wicked you have no idea!

 

We were closing our eyes, headbanging, gritting our teeth and let the insane beats take control

Before we knew it, something else happened outta the ordinary

 

Benga began to stage-dive & crowd-surfed all over the dance floor

And many others followed suit (like this guy above)

 

 

WHEN I SAY SKREAM

 

 

YOU SAY BENGA

 

 

SKREAM!!!

 

 

BENGA!

 

 

SKREEEAM….!!

BENGAAA!!!!!

 

I had a fan-dubstep-tic time.. it goes without saying!

 

 

SKREEEAM….!!

BENGAAA!!!!!

 

Raising the bar of Dubstep music even higher.

Give it up for Skream and Benga!

 

I'm sure all the other revellers of the night can agree with me

 

My first time raving to Dubstep proved to be a helluva epic night.

ENCORE!!!

 

Speaking of which, ze clan and I are gonna be heading to OMFG Saturday @ Barsonic tonight.

Bring it on Mr. Nasty, GanjaGuru and the rest of the bass agents!

Week Recap : GLOBAL presents electro-pop Brazilian DJ ‘The Twelves’ + NSFW presents ‘Don’t Believe the Hype’ featuring electro German DJs Beens n YKEL

November 25, 2011 by thejessicat

 

Hola! A snippet of what I've been up to this week thus far.

Been busy with workies and of course, rave parties!

 

If you missed it, check out the wicked parties that has been happening throughout this week

GLOBAL presents 'The Twelve' @ Zouk Club KL

 

One of my rave-kakis, Pinpin!

 

The Twelves are an electro-pop duo that hit our Malaysian shores all the way from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 🙂

Dubbed the Daft Punk of Brazil, The Twelves comprise Luciano Oliveira and João Miguel

 

Ready to watch them play?

 


Luciano Oliveira of The Twelves takes the turntables!


Work it, work it! 

 

Bumped into so many pals I couldn't keep hold of everyone for a group photo!

So here we are again, just by the DJ decks


 

Next event is one of the famed NSFW raves we have in our local party scene

Don't Believe the Hype featuring DJ Rob 'Beens' & YKEL @ The Gardens Rooftop

 

They're hot, they play kick-ass electro beats and they sure know how to demolish the dance floor!

 

I'd just like to put it out there. Rob and Ykel are such warm & friendly lads to hang out with!

Rob and I was chatting in the afternoon and asked me to join them for drinks before their set – to which I did.

 

The boys DJ Rob 'Beens' and DJ YKEL

 

Hung out with the boys for a bit and we talked about heaps of stuff despite the loud music that was booming through the speakers! 🙂 YKEL taught me some simple German words haha!

As I *might* be in Europe for a week, Rob told me to check out their fave clubs in Germany 🙂

 

DJ Blink and Xu of LapSap, my local fave homeboy DJs were the opening act for the night

 

Was given heaps of Jagermeister shots too, thanks Rob!

 

Shotshotshots everybuddy!

 

At 1am, it was DJ Rob 'Beens' turn to tear up the DJ decks. His set was simply wicked!

His electro tracks boomed through the speakers and those infectious beats really got me going

 

 

 

Can youuuu feeeeeeeeeeeeeeel the paaartay escalate? 😀

 

An hour later, at 2am, DJ YKEL took to the decks and played alongside DJ Beens.

It turned up the party dial even harder. Double the DJs, double the fun!

 

Awesome shizz you guys had going! 

 

They made my night truly spectacular.

Also, what made my day was that when I was shuffling and raving on the dance floor, a reader recognized me and was gracious enough to offer to buy me a drink! That was so nice of him 🙂 

 

With reader Keem 🙂 Thanks again for the drink, my fave Baileys on the rocks

 

Dearest DJ Rob 'Beens' and YKEL, t'was a pleasure to get to know the both of you.

All the best for your gig this Friday & Saturday in Germany and haben einen sicheren flug!
