Announcement: 27 Aug 08: Wayang Kata returns! This time, it's the music edition...


Hi there! This August, Wayang Kata returns. Though it won't be your regular hosts - Jerome (as he's busy with work, methinks) nor myself (as I'll be escorting 7 gamers for the grand finals of ESWC in San Jose, USA!), do come support British Council and listen to some of the best vocalists in town - Mia Palencia and Reza Salleh. I've not heard Najwa myself but hear the sounds from that singer songwriter is stunning too! So here goes this promo for Wayang Kata, peeps! Cheers and happy Merdeka!

Spoken Word with Kim Trusty
This August we bring back Wayang Kata with a twist!

We're joining forces with Moonshine, Klang Valley's very own homemade music
show organised by singer-songwriter Reza Salleh.

Canadian-Jamaican poet Kim Trusty will share her poetry alongside Dizzy & The. And we’ll have music from Najwa, Mia Palencia and the man himself, Reza Salleh.

Doppelganger Indie Picks: Y2K (MALAYSIA) meets Superman is Dead (INDONESIA)

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...
