Gig update...


Come 31 October, I'll be bring on the lighter shades of Progressive Trance as I grace the luscious and cosy Majestic Bar for their Halloween celebrations. There'll be a limited entry guestlist due the capacity of the venue however, it'll be a great way for friends and mates to gather and have an "intimate" night out. Details will be posted as the date draws closer.

p/s personal friends that have my contact number, may SMS me now if you want to reserve table and what-nots. I know it's way early. Just giving you a heads-up.

And "Bruised Water", which is a mash-up of Natasha Bedingfield and "Saltwater" is beginning to latch on... perhaps one of the most memorable Balearic trance to date! It's still ringing around my head...

Zzzz...


Damn tired... don't know why. But I know I'm going to sleep the entire day... stay tune for this week's updates and TWO podcast episodes to follow.

Chivas @ RVP was one of it's kind, eh? But Singaporeans still need to open up to be more receptive to music that they've not heard instead of letting the ang mohs punters lead the way all the bloody time and the locals basically "monkey see monkey do". Stop being such clueless mimickers. It's embarrassing enough when some idiot comes up to me and say, "nice techno set you played." Me, techno? Unthinkable.

Oh and for those people last night that were trying to reach me by my handphone. Sorry, it's a MUST-DO ritual for me to switch my phone off when I'm on set. Reason? It's distracting plus I get to ignore any stupid SMS-song requests from imbeciles. Those that complained the queue was long? Come earlier instead of being so traditionally Singaporean... arriving at the last minute.

"How come you finish playing already?"

Hello... look at the fucking time, will you? I'm just warming up for the main act which I personally think brought an interesting perspective in terms of merging "live" music with electronic.

"Can you get me into the VIP area?"
"Can you help me cut the queue?"
"Can you bring me backstage to meet the band?"

Do I look like the HOST to you? My father's name Chivas Regal is it? Use your brain can? Already said how many fucking times... it's not my event. I'm just booked to DJ for them. I don't have such privileges like those of a KING or something.

"Later you DJ again, lah!"

Later I go home and sleep while you stagger to find a cab.

"Why you play familiar tunes again?"

I'm paid for the job and the organizer came up and ask me to switch to more familiar tunes... because the earlier portion of NEWER material draw BLUR-LIKE-FUCK faces from the punters. The paymaster wants, the paymaster gets. Simple enough an explanation? I'm not a bedroom DJ who goes to play a gig and self-indulge without being bothered if the audience is digging it or not. Speaking of irritating... I really hate NOOB (Traktor) DJs like the one before me. Fucking attention seeker who stands in the DJ booth all the way while Chicane is on stage? And while I was helping Aldrin hook up his Serato box, last thing I need is for the NOOB and his I-also-want-to-do sidekick to stand in my way and ADVISING me what to do. My advise back to you? Give it up. You don't have the persona or etiquette to be a DJ at all.

The most evident proof that some Singaporeans are not only ignorant but also at the same time, too goddamn "act smart"... as I was exiting from the stage area, some guy stop me and ask "is Yukun still on stage, my friends and me want to say "hi".

"I think he's still in there. Why don't you wait for him here. He should be coming out soon."

And I left. S.U.C.K.E.R.S.

Enough bitching about ignorant and socially-ugly Singaporeans... I need some more shut-eye.

********************


"You going F1?"

My answer : "Nah... Every day during peak hours, Newton Circus also have."

"Huh? That's not the same!"

"I beg to differ but I'd say it is the bloody same! Basically it's just a bunch of cars going round in circles and jostling to overtake each other, except that in this case, the cars are cheaper, slower, less noisy and more practical."

OWNED!

Today's SMSes


1. "Hey Yukun, I heard Chivas event is by invites only. You have guestlist?"
Reply : "You already answered your own question. BY INVITES ONLY."

2. "Can sign me and 10 of my friends in?"
Reply : "......"

3. "What is the cover charge for the event? How to book table?"
Reply : "You don't read well, do you?"

4. "Yukun, I have a song request for Friday."
Reply : "You reached the wrong radio station."

5. "How do I get the invites?"
Reply : "Try e-Bay."

6. "You think Chicane will play some tunes from Armin?"
Reply : "It's a LIVE set. Chicane's a producer. DUH!"

And I also asked these six clowns to go read my blog and my past postings regarding the event as well as where I stand when it comes to the requesting of tunes. That's SIX new imbeciles that I've made enemies with today. HURRAY!!!

p/s some ex-colleagues called and bitched about their jobs. Quit bitching and walk out! Complaining about it won't bring you anywhere! Think you're overworked and underpaid? Be the man, do the right thing... and show your employer the middle fuck-you finger! But if you've got bills to make, ends to meet... then I suggest you stop lamenting and continue to be the company's little whore...

With that, I'll see the rest of you in the "pool".

Got CD?


Don't say I never give anyone a heads up, OK? In a week or so, we'll be making super limited CD promo copies of A Journey Into Sound #1 and #2 (due after this weekend) and we're going to run a contest exclusive for the peeps in the Progressions Facebook Group. Still not in it yet? Not in Facebook? Waiting for what? Durian to drop? Those already in, stay tune and look out for a mailer in your inbox.

Got milk?

This is the funniest shit I received by SMS thus far...


World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a warning. Due to the milk situation in China. All men are advised to be cautious when s**king the breast(s) of China girls as they might contain melamine as well.

Sorry if you're from China. But this is corny and funny as hell. Anyway, I'm Chinese too so don't accuse me of being a racist, ok? It didn't come from me. I'm just the messenger :)

Wah lan!!!!



FOR FUCK'S SAKE... FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME!

STOP ASKING IF I HAVE A GUESTLIST FOR THE CHIVAS LIVE EVENT!

DON'T HAVE! DON'T HAVE! DON'T FUCKING HAVE!

STOP EMAILING / SMSING / WHAT-NOT!

IF YOU HAVE BOTHERED TO REGISTERED WITH THEIR SITE AS REQUIRED... BY LAST FUCKING WEEK, YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN YOUR INVITES.

DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME YOUR FUCKING SAD STORY. NO GUESTLIST. UNDER-FUCKING-STAND?

SINGAPOREANS! GETTING EVEN MORE STUPID WITH EACH DAY!

Itchy backside, earlier don't want to bother to register. Now last minute no more invite, then ask me. Too bad when some people don't know what RSVP means. Now please stop bothering me, can? Nothing I can do. It's not organized by me or Progressions and thus we don't have any liberties to grant people entry and etc. Don't understand, nevermind. Just stop pestering me!

Another idiot is born!


I'm tempted to put the name of the person that SMS this...

"Yukun, could you play ID by ID this Friday? Armin played it on his recent live set. I saw the playlist of some other DJs on the net and they're playing it too."

What a complete fucking idiot. "ID" means "unknown". And there are thousands of new promotional tracks that are "untitled" until release signing. DUH!

p/s I'm not entertaining any fucking request for the simple fact that I'm not an inanimate jukebox.

Darn good read...

I know it's controversial and that's why it's banned in some "multi-racial" countries (more specifically, in Asia). Managed to order a copy from Amazon and since it's arrival this afternoon, I've been fully absorbed by it's alternatively profound perspective on religion.

"The danger of religious faith is that it allows otherwise normal human beings to reap the fruits of madness and consider them "holy". Because each new generation of children is taught that religious propasitions need not be justified in the way that all others must, civilisation is still beseiged by the armies of the proposterous. We are, even now, killing ourselves over ancient literature. Who would have thought something so tragically absurd could be possible?"
- Sam Harris

For those still trying desperately to make it (in the clubbing scene), quick order a copy. Nevermind if it's not your cup of tea or if you don't really understand jackshit about it. I promise that it'll make you look uber intellectual and boost your chances of getting laid! Yeah... riiiiiiggghhht!

Another contender!



"Hey Yukun, I'm available for gigs this week if anyone wants to hire!"

Now I'm a fucking job agency, is it? I'm going to get my cellphone number changed as soon as possible. The amount of stupidity that is coming from it at the moment is really record-breaking. It's F1-weekend. Party planners sorted everything out months ahead. If you're not hired, you're NOT hired. There's a reason as well which you should know. No need for anyone to highlight to you. Can means can... you comprehend? I got nothing for anyone. It's every man for himself. If you can't help yourself, don't expect a helping hand. That's the way of the world. C'est la vie. Now stop asking!

posted by Adminstrator @ 9:24 PM 2 comments

Stop asking dumbass questions, can?


Some of you fuckers are just downright fucking retarded. Really! Admit it! This was the SMS I got : "Yukun, I'll be at the Chicane party after the F1 party, I should bring bermudas or beachwear? Will I get get drenched?"

How the fuck I know? Since when did I become the fashion advisor? Choose either parties to go. The snooty in-the-air one with loads of stupid models and plastic morons, or the one that's for the musically-inclined and people that are keeping it real. Use your brain, if you have one. It's an outdoor party. Who the fuck goes to ZoukOut in a tuxedo, unless you're from the mental asylum.

It's amazing how more and more stupid some Singaporeans are getting with each passing day. No wonder we need more and more foreign help! Nonetheless, congratulations to the person that SMS the above question... you win the "World's Greatest Cock" tee. Cock as in "COCKER-NATHAN"!



"cocker-nathan" = fucking stupid

China is killing the world!

Singapore's Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) says its latest laboratory findings show that the "White Rabbit Creamy Candy" from China is also contaminated with melamine.

It advises consumers who have bought the affected product not to consume them.

The latest test results bring the total number of milk and related products from China imported into Singapore that are found to be contaminated with melamine to three.

The other two affected products are "Yili Brand" Choice Dairy Fruit Bar Yogurt Flavoured Ice Confection" and "Dutch Lady" brand of strawberry flavoured milk.

FUCK!!! I've been like eating that shit since I was I kid! Fuck man, I'm not going to trust any product (or nationals) that is made / assembled / exported by China. Hmm... then again, I was NEVER an advocate of China exports. And seriously, international companies and brands should fucking boycott and close their fucking factories in China down!

I'm off to buy a cow later.

More Chivas Live News...

Chivas Live At RVP Set To Hit The Party Scene In Singapore By Storm!

Partygoers looking to get away for a unique music experience during the Formula One weekend do not have to look any further. Come September 26, Chivas Live will introduce yet another unique party experience in Singapore. This time, the inimitable concept is to have people partying in an empty pool with showers of rain, to the live beat of British ambient trance guru act Chicane at the defunct River Valley Swimming Complex from 10pm till late.

For the locals who may have fond memories of the long forgotten swimming complex, Chivas Live at RVP aspires to awe them with a total transformation of the abandoned pool, making this party yet another first in Singapore's partying history. The successful Chivas Live launch at Cavenagh Bridge in March this year, which featured Kyoto Jazz Massive's first ever live set in Singapore, showcased the brand's promise of a unique music experience. Once again, this next instalment
introduces the "alternative" venue to be at for their discerning audience.

"Chivas Live is a music platform that promises to redefine the way we live our life, and embodies the whisky brand's declaration of enjoying a life less ordinary. Through a series of exclusive unique music experiences, we aim to deliver the ultimate parties to be at, while ensuring that each one stands apart from the next," said Mr Alfred Goh, Brand Manager for Chivas.

Goh added: "We want to go against the grain and do something exceptionally different. Furthermore, we also want to provide partygoers and music lovers with an alternative entertainment platform aside from the Formula One parties."

Gracing the decks for the first time in Singapore, Nick Bracegirdle and his band aka Chicane will arrive fresh on the shores with an astounding electronic music live set extravaganza. Nick, once dubbed the "godfather of the Ibiza anthem" has progressively moved away from producing solely dance and his sound has evolved to encapsulate the full energy and diversity of live electronica. The Chicane live experience has travelled the globe from Moscow to Manila and will make an exclusive one-night only appearance in Singapore for Chivas Live at RVP.

Nick first burst into the electronic music scene in 1997 with his debut album Far From the Maddening Crowds. The classic hit "Offshore" fast became the sacred song on dance floors internationally. Apart from his own projects, the multi-talented producer, DJ and songwriter had also collaborated with legendary music artistes like Bryan Adams, Cher and Tom Jones to name a few. The expansion of the Internet in 2003 caused Nick a massive setback and Chicane soon became a victim of internet bootlegging.

His return in 2006 with the single "Stoned in Love" was greatly welcomed by fans who celebrated this new and evolved Chicane sound. While the essence of dance remains strong, the novelty of a rock/ indie edge has been introduced to give Chicane's sound added bite and on September 26, Singapore will play witness to this music evolution at Chivas Live at RVP.

Entry to the Chivas Live event is exclusively available by invitation only. Interested party-goers can register online at www.chivaslive.com.sg for their chance to receive an invite.

Ha ha!

Email from some local "industrial gothic" band who call themselves "The Village Of The Damned" (not a very original name to begin with)...

"Hi Yukun, we're a big fan and would like to invite you to remix some of our songs."

Reply : Thank you but I doubt you're a fan in anyway. If you were, you'd know the sound(s) I represent and wouldn't have asked for my remix services. Nonetheless, I could still give it a shot and perhaps help you guys move towards a more consumer-friendly direction. May I also suggest a name and image change?

Do consider "THE VILLAGE PEOPLE" as an alternatively to your otherwise sombre and pointlessly dark personas. It's much brighter and more positive. It'll still fit into you nipple-piercing culture... just in a more GAY way, that's all.

Getting back into the program...


Thanks for all the really crappy demo mixed CDs that some "still-aspiring-for-years" DJs have sent me! They've inspired me to pick myself off my arse and do a much over-due mix of my own. And against my better judgement, I'm going old-skool on this one this weekend - making use of a mate's home studio and do it "live" on the CDJ1000s and then try to edit out all the horrid out-of-sync mistakes. God knows how many times I'll be doing it. I'd probably get really sick of the entire mix before it's done. Alas, that's how it was back in the day when the word "digital" was totally unheard of and "compact disc" were an luxury item.

Also, it'll give me some momentum as we head towards the Chivas Live party. I've got a bunch of drummers coming to jam alongside so beat-matching will have to be pretty spot-on, eh? Hope everyone drinks excessively to block out the ruckus :p

Sorry I won't be burning the mix out on CDRs. It'll go straight into my podcast. Go green, you know? Watch this space for an update on the mix (mine, that is).

Unwell...

My flu medication is making me woozy. It's like flying except that you have a freaking runny nose that is flowing like a freaking monsoon drain. "Chloe" tells me to cover up and not to sleep naked. Errr... I don't do that (unless required). I sleep fullu clothed. OK, too much details. And don't bother asking me who is this "Chloe" either. I won't tell.

Random note. Some of you lamented that you miss the really funny pictures I stick here. Here's one for you...


Not funny? Damn it... how about this?


Fine. How about I show you a photo of my new freaking neighbour-with-long-name from India, sun-tanning his hairy-like-gorilla legs right outside the common corridor? OK, now that's gross.

Rest day for me tomorrow. Hope to get better soon because it's money-making week from Tuesday to Friday and I'll shoot myself if I miss out. Off to bed again...

Make (gecko) Love, Not War!

As part of my anger management programme, I went around the house looking for lizards to kill... I mean, exterminate. I found these two. Being the nice guy that I am (yeah, right!), I decided to let them finish off their last screw on earth and then flush them down the toilet bowl.

Hmmph! Those horny male lizards sure take a bloody long time to blow their load!



Everything's fornicating.
Shouldn't we do the same?

Warn your other scaly friends, call the SPCA... Death Angel has arrived and the killing (or drowning) season begins! Thrash Metal and lizard termination seems to go hand-in-hand darn pretty well! If you got a lizard problem, you know who to call... provided it's not a freaking Komodo dragon or something of that size (unless you don't mind cleaning the bloody mess after I slit it's throat).



********************

Further proof that people don't read properly

"Yukun, the Chivas event got guestlist?"
"Chivas event can book table or not?"
"What time is the event?"
"Can you play some banging trance?"

Dear vision-impaired people... please read the following text in bold...


For the final time... NO GUESTLIST as it's not MY EVENT. Just go to their website to registered for this INVITE-ONLY event. At the same time, why not direct those ignorant questions to the organizers as well. Time and date has been plastered over and over this blogsite as well as the FACEBOOK event page. Sorry if you're still not on the FACEBOOK wagon. You're missing out then. No I won't be playing any BANGING shit whatsoever. I'm the warm-up DJ and if you know Chicane's music and the policy behind the professionalism of the job, I cannot play any music that will overshadow the main highlight of the night. If you still do not understand from hereforth... I suggest you enroll yourself in the Paralympics because you're obvious retarded beyond a shadow of a doubt.

"How much is a bottle of Champagne at Helipad?"

How the fuck should I know? Just because I dropped by doesn't mean that I would know everything there is to know about that bar. Do I look like I work for them? Better still... do I look like the bloody internet to you?


TO END THIS RATHER RANDOM POSTING...

I have another new neighbour from India who is... (guess)... another IT specialist. See the pattern? Anyway, as my lizard hunt brought me outside of the flat, he said introduced himself, "Hello. My name is Bhaktavatsalam Bhayakridbhayanashanachar."

I replied, "err... hi. You can call me YK."

Not a very convenient Indian name is it? I wonder how big his staff pass is at work. Quite an anti-climax whenever he makes out with his wife and she goes...

"Bhaktavatsalam! Bhaktavatsalam! I'm coming, Bhaktavatsalam!

Hello! This is not a racist joke, OK? It's really his name and I'm merely eloborating examples of why the heritage of such long names should be eradicated... just like that lizard I see hiding behind his potted plant. Perhaps he should change his name to something that would be easier to remember, like Jabba Binks or something along that line.

OK... this little kid of angst got to go rest now. Having the flu makes me a bit warped. Gearing up for the big match later. Liverpool vs Man Utd. If I can wake up, that is.

Screw the world...

This photo was snapped at a pet shop that I was at last weekend. And it illustrates every being's main purpose in life... to fornicate, but not necessary in that position. What other possible reasons are there for living? To save the planet? Oh please. If you had to choose between joining Greenpeace (and probably drown in the process) or just lying in bed for the entire week to screw your brains out with a harem of drop-dead gorgeous women, which would you decide on?

The frustrating thing about watching the above making out? NOTHING EVER HAPPENS! Man, it must suck to be a terrapin.

Ran into some ex-colleagues of mine for the last F&B job I held as well as the Gramophone one. Great to know some of them at ardent readers of the blog and agree with my sarcastic jibe at the stupidity of reality... especially those about how idiotic most Singaporeans are.

But nothing quite grinds my gear when it comes to the governing authorities...

I know the Paralympics is not as "recognized" as the Olympics but seriously, I personally think it's a GREATER TRIUMPH of the human spirit as compared to able-bodied athletes. I bet many are not aware that Singapore's Laurentia Tan became Singapore's first Paralympic medallist when she came in third in the individual championship (Grade 1a) Equestrian event on Tuesday and just last night, she won bronze again, this time in the individual freestyle test.

What's the big deal? She has cerebral palsy. If you don't know what that is, please GOOGLE it. And it's not easy for her to do normal day-to-day things and to achieve what she did is to be saluted with respect and awe.

For her achievement, Tan will earn $25,000 under the Singapore National Paralympic Council's Athlete Achievement Awards scheme.

WHAT? OUR OWN FUCKING CITIZEN WINS AND THE AMOUNT IS SO LITTLE? And we had a fucking parade for our China-imported paddlers and God knows how many front pages they were plastered on. What the fuck? Since when have true-blue Singaporeans become SECOND-CLASS citizens? Since the fucking day foreign talents invaded us and took away every fucking job imaginable... i.e. coffee shop beer lady.

Man, I feel so bloody pissed with the injustice... I need to go listen to the new Slipknot album and go bash up some lizards or something...
