Thanks to all who came despite the thunderstorm temptress teasing us. Just wanted to shout out a TQ to Rina and 8TV team for shouting out to the Doppelganger family on air. And on ya to Chak, Bala and Superbar for their upcoming album launch. Tell us where to buy it ok. Ain't distribution always such a drag? A huge thank you to Reza Salleh and band for turning up at the last moment in place of Ching & Hikaru (Ching - hope yr drummer's hands heal soon). And the usual shout out to everyone who played: Ariff Akhir, Azmyl Yunor, kisskissbangbang, Lightcraft, Oddstars, Otam, Soft Touch, Superbar, Tongkat, Zalila Lee and Jerral Khor, Yuri & de Vodstoks. Thanks!! We'll upload pictures soon as we get them sorted!
Here we go again with Doppelganger Indie Picks. Each time, we select one local and one foreign artiste to share with you. This edition, we are shaking with excitement as we reintroduce two punk acts, both of whom have been around for quite some time. Whilst our Balinese counterpart, Superman is Dead enjoys a fan base of over 5million on Facebook, the other closer to home (we're speaking of Ampang in Kuala Lumpur) has an insignificant amount of but in our opinion, have the promise of being a really really really (as my Italian friend Valentina says) a smashing big band! So the long and short is, the Malaysian band Y2K has been established since the early 2000s and is about to release it's second album. How many albums did Sex Pistols release? Perhaps this article (Sex Pistols' Steve Jones interview: 'We should do a covers album') could be an inspiration to them to reinvent, repackage and just bloody get their band out there more and more and more :P Can...
Thanks to Jasmine and her crew. Keep on "Keep it On"- you are doing a good deed
