Some people sure have way too much smoke grenades to ignite. Sad fact is that there are suckers that constantly fail to see through the stinking smoke screen. I for one, can smell a farce a mile away. But then again, my opinion means squat...
Whatever! Don't want to bother either... until it's too late to do any damage control.
On to more interesting things... astrology! And just to see how precise it is, I'll underline and headlight what's true.
Cancerians are very sensitive, sympathetic and emotional, with moods that shift and change like the tides. Though you may hide behind a shell of equanimity or indifference, you are really very easily hurt and take almost everything personally. You have deep feelings for, and sentimental attachments to, the past, your home and family, or anything or anyone you once had a close affiliation with.
You need to be needed, and desire a very close, secure, loving and protective relationship. Family or domesticity is extremely important to you.
You are very independent and do not want to be possessed or restricted by other people's ideas of what you should do or be. There is a rebellious streak in you. Being part of something larger than yourself, a group or community of some sort, is very important and necessary to you.
You tend to be hot-headed, highly competitive, and driven to achieve - and these energies will no doubt play a significant role in your life.
For those that are still on networking platforms like Friendster, Multiply, MySpace and what-not... welcome to the new era of poking someone you hardly know and not get arrested for harrassment! Sorry, that sounded a bit dubious but that's the thing... no one really knows what it's for but we all keep doing it despite agreeing that it's bloody meaningless!
"What the hell does it mean to POKE someone anyway?"
"I don't care coz I'm going to keep poking!"
Still don't get what the big deal about poking someone means?

It's pretty fun to go mad once in a while, and last night was one of such rare occasions... especially with all the personal issues and zero morale state that has been dogging me the past few weeks. It took a lot for me to put my worries and concerns for my dad aside and to step up at 1.30am to DJ to a really appreciative audience, friends and long-time mates. Thank you all for the continued belief, encouragement and support. Without you, Yukun is nothing. Big ups to Benesia and JonG... and Razaq for those shots of... was it Sex On The Beach? The Denon boys were a laugh! All in all, last night's crowd and party was surreal... and it's always nice to meet new faces as well as the mates that have stuck with me all these while... and it's a good thing to constantly see new folks being initiated into our nice "little" trance community.
Woke up feeling kind of hazy, buzzing and dazed (pun intended)... and facing a hard slap of reality. I've to resume my responsibility of looking after my dad today. Thankfully, I've taking the time off from work today. Last night, I had a reason to "cowboy-up", tonight I don't! So in way, it's good that I'm spared the ordeal again... of having to go through the motion and play to a room of music-retarded transient "people"... or worse, to deal with over-enthusiastic name-dropping pricks. Comparing that with yesterday's experience, Dazed Out was like a glimpse of heaven... happy people, happy vibes... and a GREAT END to a great night with people still on the floor even though the main lights came on at 3am. Now it's a party... PROPER! With none of the DJs fucking up a single mix or jumping around like chimpanzees on acid or create a post-nuclear mess in the DJ booth.
"You make the world better." - Simon
You're too kind!
Even my bar supervisor Vince came up to me and said, he had fun and has been craving for a proper night like this when his bar is pushed to the limit... to clock in sales (not freeflow). And to the outlet's Assistant Manager Adrian... happy birthday in advance and thank you for your efforts too! Happy hangover! We have a good team, just need the right pivotal motivation factors. Agenda met, point proven. Don't have to have a huge redundant mailing list or have freeflow to entice cheapskate fuckers or tie in god-knows-who. Just have to listen to the consumers. Then again, I'm not about to release all the little trade secrets either. Yeah, to some "people", I'm a bloody bastard. Whatever. *zipping up*
Nice to know, from phone messages, that quite a few of you are nursing a hangover. It's a good thing.
"Hangover rabak! Working now when my eyes are still @@" - Ian
It was memorable, to say the least. Till the next Dazed Out in October... THANK YOU and YOU and YOU!!! I'm going back to sleep... will need a hot bowl of soup later when I get up.
p/s it might be a Halloween special!
"Last night was awesome! Please keep me in the loop for future events like last night's." - Jeremy Thia
Don't expect effort, input or any creative contribution. All that is going elsewhere... ... and I'm not telling either! *snigger*
I need to go attend this above funeral! Apparently, it dies every day!
Will spend the weekend looking after Dad and attending to his recovery. Decided to start the tedious work on the next Progressions Megamix CD. So many have ask if I can match up to the NYE promo. You ain't heard nothing yet! Will get some sponsor money and hopefully make a substantial amount to toss out at the next one.
Friends, relatives and those that have expressed their concerned and offered their valued prayers...
Thank you very much for your words of encouragement and support. The doctor discovered another blocked artery in my father's heart today while performing a procedure on the "problematic" one. He will thus be heading back again for yet another procedure in about 2 weeks' time as the specialist felt that my dad may not be able to withstand TWO series of "repair" work at one go.
He's weak at the moment and has temporary lost mobility of his legs due to the insertion of micro fabric optics into the main arteries of the limbs. Most probably discharged Saturday night after some physiotherapy and routine follow-ups.
All in all, not much of a complication. Discovering the other blocked artery today was actually a blessing. Work's disrupted but like I said, family comes first.

********************
Currently on urgent leave to look after my dad who'll be undergoing procedures for his heart problem later today. Those heading for Dazed Out tomorrow, I'll be there to wrap things up around 1.30am... nonetheless. I'll probably be on leave on this Saturday as well, depending on his recovery condition. Notably, I'll be retaining my sanity by not having to deal or listen to patronizing buttwipes / industry laughing stock / pests / conjobs / yaya-papayas.

My eyes BLED when I saw this... they were meant to be, weren't there? Deep down, there's a Ross and Rachel in everyone of us.
Please be warned not to call me "BRO" unless the either of the following is met...
1. You're really related to me by blood.
2. You have the same surname as me.
3. We're sworn by oath.
4. You were servicing with me in the same elite armed forces unit.
5. I call you by that too.
6. We actually know each other for over 5 years.
If the above is not applicable, you may however use others like "sire" or "sir". This is applicable to all those pesky little suck-ups that I'll have the unfortunate luck of listening to again very soon. Call me "bro" again and I'll give you my middle finger!
It's not personal. But you really suck. Some of my senior peers have actually had the shocking displeasure of hearing you... and the comments given has been far more crude than what I've been saying thus far.
Reality check...
SO CHUCK YOU, UNDERSTAND? CHUCKING CHUCK HEADS!
And if you really want me to stick up your event's flyer here, considering the traffic I get, please wired US$500 to my account first. I don't do it "for the passion" or "for the scene". Everything has a price. Stupid chucker!
With the amount of stupidity, idiocy and stagnancy driving me into creative frustration, I've got this great urge to take leave from work, go watch the upcoming Linkin Park concert and treat my ears to some really angst-filled music... and headbang myself into oblivion and then re-access some crossroad issues.
"You think you know... ... you know squat!"
Kapala buto...
On a sadder note, my dad is going for his heart surgery this coming Thursday so don't expect me to be the best of moods and etc. So don't come give me any evils!!! And don't expect me to be overly excited over anything else either. Right now, all that concerns is my dad... nothing else. Now bugger off, idiots! I got no mood for anything! Period!
For those that are sincere / selfless / nice (i.e. really buddies, friends, mates and loved ones) and really do care... a prayer would be nice. Thanks and bless you too!
Don't know why but for once in my entire life, I'm actually looking forward to next January's in-camp training. Really need a bloody break from all the stagnancy and stupidity. There after, if I'm still around, I'll apply for another week's leave and disappear somewhere to rot. Don't know how much longer I can keep up the "passion" and "positiveness" of playing to a room full of musically-retarded "vagabonds". Don't even feel like peeling myself off the bed this morning.
This is bad... :(
Really sick and tired of explaining logic and common sense over and over. Really fed-up of having to deal with half-baked DJ-wannabes. Sick sick sick sick!!! No wonder that soldier runaway with a rifle. I would too. Only difference is that I'd have used it and did the world a favour in decreasing the portion of the population that's actually dumbfuck.
Question asked during the weekly "charity drive" last night... "Why you look so lifeless?"
Idiot! It's because the so-called "audience" is fucking pretentious, pointless and boring me to death! Now can you chuck along and leave me the hell alone too before you get OWNED? Chuck-face! By the way, electro is dumb. And there's no such thing as "dirty trance". Period.

Forewarning
To all those DJ wannabe's that are trying to smoke / blag their way into scoring gigs, I'm going to be damn blunt from here forth. No I don't know / or care whatever regional shitty DJs you're trying to "sell". Sorry to say that the DJs I know are beyond regional and have all played in Singapore in the past to full rooms. Plus they aren't wankers like you. International vs Regional? Which makes more marketing sense in our current clubbing environment? Idiot. I hate all that "big talk" when it actually amounts to a fart of a plankton. And also, please do not ever FUCKING request to "jam" with me unless you can meet the following pre-requisites...
01. Understanding to harmonic and key phasing 02. 10 and above years of deck exposure 03. A proven track record 04. Accolades that I may have yet to achieve 05. You're not a bragging asshole 06. You don't drop names 07. You don't patronize me for own agenda 08. You know how to use other gears besides Pioneer CDJ-1000s 09. You don't get on my nerves 10. You don't SUCK at DJing
To put it in local terms that you might understand. Yukun don't like "yah-yah papaya punks". I've been there and done it. Nothing you say is impressive. Pay your bloody dues first and stop being a goddamn poseur. If you only know what the other club owners / marketing managers / resident DJs are saying about you. Notably, if you can handle the truth, let sit down, allow me to reality-slap you for about an hour and then send you off to buy me some cigarettes. In the meantime, since you've managed to pissed me off effortlessly just by BEING YOURSELF... please fuck off and take your smoke grenades elsewhere.
Many thanks to The Vibesetters (David and Amanda). Cheers for the dirty beats, squelchy analogue synth, quirky riffs... and for sharing a laugh or two. That "Born Slippy" improvisation was just beyond MAD! Next time round, we do a menage a trois... I'll go hunt for a Roland TB-303!
"I funny, meh?"
Tonight, is going to so pointless and I'm actually (see what bunny is doing below) just thinking of it. Another "transient" night with the same old bunch of (too crude to post here). Honestly, I'm getting damn chucking sick of it. My enthusiasm is at it's lowest when it comes to this weekly "charity drive". It's killed my passion for the DJing craft.
So don't ask me that stupid question... "Why you look so uninterested and tired?" Because I AM!!!
Looking forward to next Friday's "Dazed Out". I'm going to eat pineapple cake (yummy!), and start working on the next promo mix CD in the next few days. Sorry those that are still emailing me for #1... no more left! Maybe Ebay have... hahahaha!
p/s I've been informed that a certain DJ duo here is dubbing themselves as Singapore's Deep Dish. Damn cock if you ask me. Where is the originality? Why copy and not be pro-creative instead... unless you're lacking in the creativity department. It's like cover version songs, ain't it? Don't have the original, here's the next best thing... a poor impersonation. Seriously, what the fuck are the younger generation of DJ-wannabes eating nowadays? Fucking idiots!
With each passing day, the people I deal with on a daily basis at work are refining the term "fucking stupid". I know some people are downright ignorant. Others are just born without common sense. Anyway... I'm getting really sick and tired. Whatever happened to forward-thinking?
On a lighter side, here are some things that have been asked at the club...
01. Play something good that we can dance to. 02. Play something with a "beat"! 03. I don't know what's the title but I want you to play it! 04. Everybody wants to hear this! 05. Nobody wants to hear this! 06. Everybody will dance if you play it! 07. I can get laid if you play it! 08. I want to hear it next1 09. What do you have? 10. Nobody can dance to this! 11. Play it next because we're leaving! 12. Please play "********", it's my birthday! 13. What time will you play it? 14. I know the boss of the club, please play my song now! 15. Can I DJ? 16. I'm a DJ also, you should play "*****" and mix it with "*****". 17. I'm the owner's wife and he wants you to play this song...! 18. Can you please play it again? I didn't hear it just. 19. Is it gonna be this music all night? 20. Can you play song No. 12 on CD 2 of "Best Hot Hits Vol. 5"? 21. Hey! Where can I buy drugs? 22. Can I leave my bag in here? 23. Where is the toilets?? 24. Can you make an announcement that its my birthday? 25. How much should I pay you to play "*****" 26. Did you see the girl/boy I came in with? 27. Two gin tonics, please! 28. Do you have a pen? 29. Are you the DJ? 30. Can I plug my iPod and play MY music? 31. You should play "*****" and see how eveybody will dance! 32. Hey! This is a good track! Can I have the CD? 33. Can you play something faster 34. Do you have a microphone to shout out my birthday ? 35. You got any R&B and Hip Hop? (when playing house) 36. Can I look through your music/cds/records?
Feet heavy... haven't really recovered from the past week. Backache. Migraine. Lousy mood. Brain dead. Zero in the drive department. Excuse me while I have another crappy week ahead. I bloody hate Mondays! With each passing day/week/month/year... the more I feel that I shouldn't have quit from my 5-day work week job at the music industry, which was paying me a good tidy sum for almost doing nothing... except to answer stupid questions from a moronic boss. Ah... well...
Self-explanatory! "almost there"... if you know what I mean. [clue : scroll further down!]

********************
Playing to a room of transient tarts and wankers week in and out is getting to me BIG TIME. It's damn fucking demoralizing playing to a bunch of people that are not the very least into the music. Their exodus after their "drink entitlement" ends is enough to tell me that it's damn fucking pointless! I don't know how long more of this I can take before the interest and passion completely dies off. It's such a chore to actually drag myself into the DJ booth and then put on an "it's all cool" masquerade so that no one else gets affected by my actual sentiments. I need to go secure a few big gigs soon to recharge before I completely toss in the white flag in frustration. I need that so fucking badly...
I miss those Centro and Onyx days... :(
I don't blame anyone. It's just a situational thing and that it's reaching to the point whereby I'm going to... (use your imagination)
My apologies to the "bros"... when I eventually reach that "point"!
For the benefit of those aspiring to be DJs... please note that having the latest tunes, or having the money to buy the so-called best industry standard gear, or possessing the ability to jump around like a monkey... sadly, does not make you a DJ at all. True that we're in the digital age but if you don't know the basics or know how to adapt and operate any other gears besides those you know, then I really strongly suggest you go to the nearest bookstore and buy the following book. It should help... hopefully. A brief glimpse into Chapter One, don't talk big in front of seasoned DJs, we aren't easily impressed... all we hear is nonsensical babbler from a chipmunk.
... and stop being a name-dropping parasite! Whatever names you drop, can you beat being personally invited and attending Paul van Dyk's private wedding party at Winter Music Conference? So spare me the tall stories because I have skyscrapers that tower above yours. We don't take kindly to "papaya"-types. Pay your dues and tame that monkey first... and then if we deem you attitude is in the right place... then maybe we might consider a firmer handshake.
This posting is so mega-OWNAGE! I've never felt so accomplished for months!
Much as most of you Singaporeans hate to admit it, you're as bad as Hongkongers! Seriously... the purpose of the yellow lines is for incoming passengers to stand outside so that the alighting passengers have a route out of the freaking train! If you don't make space for people to exit, how the hell is there going to be any vacancy inside the train? Is that so hard to comprehend? Idiots!!!
Much as the train transport system is downright convenient, it never feels to be an unpleasant experience. No thanks to you SINGAPOREANS! And don't get me started with people who run from one platform to another just to be first in queue. What? Is there a prize to be won or something?
And seriously, what's the bloody deal with the above? I know we all strive to STAND out as a nation but having such ugly traits is not the way. Using tissue packs to reserve your seat is downright ridiculous! Why? What proof do you have that the tissue pack belongs to you? Please leave your ID card instead. At least there won't be any grounds of dispute.
Don't laugh... I'm sure some of you are guilty of it!
Enough of DJs that can't mix or and have zero sense of rhythm and tempo. Some of us are trying to push beyond the benchmarks and the refinery of the craft; and here we have jabronis that call themselves DJs but in the true sense, are absolutely FULL OF IT. Crap, that is. I'm actually ashamed to be called a DJ when there are such hopeless "talents" around. So bloody embarrassing. On the other hand, knowing that you can't mix to save your life, I do actually feel a great sense of achievement on my end... to know I can beat you in every area with my hands tied behind my back. Not that I'm proud but some of these "DJs" are really that bad and they don't even know it! With that said, I'd really appreciate that I don't have the displeasure to hear anymore of such feeble "attempts" at DJing anymore? REALLY! PLEASE!!!
And I especially hate "DJs" that have no discipline, respect or professionalism. Last night, it was unfortunate enough that we had a guest cannot-mix-for-nuts-DJ for a private event... after he left, there were split drinks, empty glasses, chewed drinking straws and used tissue paper in the DJ booth area. How would you like if I came to your house, take a dump in your living room and then leave?
The next time any DJ comes and does this... I'll bring him a mop and a rag, right in front of everyone... "Clean up your own shit!"
And fuck all those DJs who can't work with other gears and insist in their own technical rider because of their inability to coop with adaption. That's the difference that seperates REAL DJs away from the kids. Fuck you and the industry standard gears. Some of you are not even INDUSTRY standard to say the least. To put it bluntly... "CAN MEANS CAN". Don't have to whine and make little excuses.
"Oh, I need this and that if not I can't DJ..."
Reality check. You're NOT a DJ! Not in my books anyway. If you can show me tricks on those gears that I'm not able to do, fine... you win. If not, shut the fuck up and stop polluting the environment with hot air!
Mother chuckers! Simply cannot make it! Do yourself and the world a favour. Stop kidding yourself and keep your day job. We already have enough clowns to keep us entertained for a lifetime.
I'm really really really really really really not in the FUCKING mood for anything!!! NO FUCKING MOOD! GET IT? NO MOOD AT ALL!!! What-bloodyfucking-ever!!! Like I really really care about anything else? And spare me the fucking arrows...
I just received some really bad news the hospital. My dad has been diagnosed with diabetes and also needs a bypass soon as there's some blockages in his heart. As I explained before, I put my family before anything else. I only have limited time with time. Everything else is not important, as far as I'm concerned.
I'm not in a very fantastic mood right now so if I seem disinterested or distant, please bear in mind what I'm going through... financially and mentally. Notably, I may also show signs of no dedication or commitment in the other things of my life. The news is not something I'm dealing with very well right now.
I can't help feeling nostalgic. It was SIX years ago and I'm not talking about the above. Time has gone by. Regretful words have been said. Stupid things have been done. Resulting in what things are today. Lives have changed. Taking everything in stride... and moving on.
I caught a glimpse, but its been forgotten So here we are again I made a vow, to carry you home... home
I really tried to do what you wanted It all went wrong again
I made a vow, to carry you home If you fall sick, if you pass out
I figured it out, I can see again - "So Here We Are" by Bloc Party
