Pesawat

Pesawat was born in the hangar of Ampang after occasional just-for-fun jamming session of four boys from Klang Valley. In 2005, they decided to take music seriously and started to write their own material that is different from the rest. Influenced very much by the bands from the UK, namely Editors, We Are Scientists, Dirty Pretty Things, Keane and Pigeon Detectives, Pesawat's music can be summed up as Indie Garage Rock with Malaysian flavor. Their music comes both in English and Malay.

The band went on hiatus in 2006 due to other commitments and back in the hangar in the end 2007 to write new songs with a new direction with more flavor. Pesawat was slotted to play at KLUE Urbanscapes 2008 as one of the voter's choice alongside with Komplot, The Otherside Orchestra and Auburn. The event was touted as the biggest art+music festival in Malaysia was held at KL Performing Arts Center.

The band was reviewed in the MalayMail(Malaysia’s top English tabloid) as the discovery of 2008. Due to that, Pesawat has achieved tremendous publicity and has become one of Malaysian band to be given attention. Other notable shows that they have played includes Converse Century Project in Queensbay Mall Penang, Crossborders at Laundry, KLUE Urbanscapes 2008 at KLPAC, EURO FINAL Indie Jam at Cyberjaya, Indie Youth Fest 2008 in conjuction with Electronic Sports World Cup 2008, XFreshFM X-Gig at Zouk KL, Moonshine and FlyFM Campurtchart Goes Live at Laundry. They have been getting rave reviews due to their energetic live shows.

Their first single entitled “Mirage” is due to release middle October 2008 and has already got an airplay in local radio station XFM. EraFM and FlyFM. The demo version of Mirage was featured in Junk Magazine Online Compilation and Voize - Possibly the best compilation ever! CD. Currently they are working on a yet-to-be-titled full length album with a second single to be out in November.

Yuna

She writes a couple of songs, and basically picks out the best out of the bunch to share it with the world. Nothing really mindblowing. It is what it is, you dont have to like it.Best listened when you’re lying on grass in a quiet afternoon, your toes in the sand facing the ocean, or when you’re in the car watching trees go by.Singing became a habit when she was 6.She didn’t like her piano lessons and quit when she was 12.She wrote her first song when she was 15.

She quit singing when she was 16.She started writing songs again when she was 19.About the same time she started playing the guitar.Last year. She started playing the piano again.And now shes regretting that she quit music school.Crap.She’s very new to performing with the guitar, and piano.Saya budak baru belajar. Kalau salah tolong tunjukkan.Other than that, shes pretty much a very normal person. Who loves Jimi Hendrix, Alanis Morissette, and Feist, and goofing around.

Elektrik Retro

Pada pertengahan tahun 2003 band ini pada mulanya adalah bernama Limited Garden yang dianggotai oleh iqbal = gitar&vokal, ashraf.d = bass dan afdhal = drum. Kami pada masa itu memainkan muzik berkonsepkan grunge dan merekod demo pertama yang bertajuk bank negara malaysia, pada tahun awal tahun 2005 zul = gitar kedua menyertai band kami dan pada masa itu juga kami telah menukar konsep kepada brit pop dan kami merekod demo kedua kami yang berjudul H.i.V.

Setelah bermain dibeberapa gig pada penghujung tahun 2007 nama band ini ditukarkan kepada ElektrikRetro dan pada masa yang sama azim dibawa masuk ke dalam band ini sebagai vokalis utama dan pada ketika itu juga kami sekali lagi menukar konsep kepada garage rock/art rock kemudian kami sekali lagi masuk studio untuk merakamkan demo yang bertajuk antarabangsa yang biasa sesudah membuat rakaman iqbal merasakan ingin menambah bilangan ahli band bagi menghasilkan muzik yang lebih baik daripada yang sebelum ini, kemudian rafizul = seksefon, aidili = trombon dan hizami = papan kekunci dipelawa untuk menyertai EletrikRetro. Matlamat utama band ini adalah untuk menghasilkan muzik yang berkualiti. Walaupun begitu, perjalanan masih jauh kerana kami masih muda banyak perkara yang perlu dilakukan sebelum mencapai matlamat itu.

Komplot

Komplot released their first single in 2007 which was aptly called ‘Konflik Metropolis’. It became the rave of the town and about. It all soon became clear as Komplot returns the compliment that the local independent scene had. Komplot bared it all on their first ever show at Laundry Bar, when literally hundreds if not thousands came to the modish bar to gratify their curiosity as to what the hype about Komplot is all about. The show exploded with broken furniture flew about, massive dance-pit encircled, and significantly those who came were enthused and this started the craze called Komplot. From then on, it was apparent that Komplot is a band to pass on for and the songs to live by.

Flash forward to 2008, as Komplot grew more established, it was inevitable that Komplot had to release a brand new recording following the hugely successful single, ‘Konflik Metropolis’. This was said to be a mini album cum EP also some sort of a teaser for an upcoming full length album. That’s right. A full length album is in the works as we speak. However, the public whom now had become all too familiar with Komplot, pressed for a lengthier recording. Yet, Komplot understood a release can only be released when it is supposed to be released no matter how great the urgency. The songs in the EP had to go through rigorous regime in terms of re-phrasing, re-mixing and unorthodoxly re-recorded. This was done however to justify the hype and the demand that the public has pressed upon Komplot.

Komplot transcends all when it comes to critics and admirers alike. Both acknowledge the energy that Komplot gives a free rein to and the public would remain vigilant as to how Komplot would progress. And indeed, this is how Komplot relishes the challenge under adversity with their eclectic mix of band members. Eclectic in the sense of confluence, achievement and confidence. Zac, a regular player in the circuit, hits the melodies with such ease and commandeering while maintaining stage zest ness and authority. While Jeff ‘the whore’, is the ‘in-demand’ saxophonist at the moment and he calls himself home in Komplot. He cites Micheal Brecker and Hello Kitty as primary influences. However, the centre of gravity which makes sense to all of it all is the guitarist cum the chief songwriter. He calls himself Amrud. We call him the prodigious guitarist who brings to the band hope, desire, motivation and lastly, monies. Not many à la mode riffs can be churned out of a Godin. Yet he manages to do it with bravado, every time. Yup, every time

The band’s structure would be complete with the introduction of Komplot’s groove section comprising Chino and Haekal. The latter is the bassist. Walking down Komplot’s groove section, one would reminisce the good moment when funk is all boorish and uncouth. The groove section stand by the tryst that embraces the roots of groove and the energy which seemed to have lost it all in translation. Yet, what path do men take? As fame is death’s little sister, isn’t it all too corny that men should partake a path that conjoins passion and contentment instead of gluttony and sheer pompousness. Komplot firmly believes in the spirit of musicianship and the freedom that comes with it. Hence, Komplot embraces the D.I.Y and the independent spirit while being realistic and pragmatic to the reality of the local music industry. Komplot hopes to shatter the mental hurdle that independent acts should suck and be pain in the asses. Komplot believes in the thriving of the independent scene and would strive hard to go beyond the localized genre ship and ultimately to penetrate the persistent and conservative listeners.

Joanna & Co

Joanna & Co was first formed in 2006 when Joanna was discovered on a local radio station, XfreshFM by local producers bard and arab. Herewith, assembled Ijam, Kusha and Farid for Joanna. They instantly found music chemistry and a brother-sister bond that made them inseparable.

Joanna Renisa is a 23 year old rock princess, born to rock the stage and shake her tail feathers. Her infectious smiles and famous crowd teasing moments melts the hearts of men and lesbians. This singer/songwriter first started singing profesionally with an RnB girl group called Harmonee at the age of 7 at hotel events for kids. She soon rocked out of the girl group and into a band named after her :)

Ijam, the coolest guitarist in the band (that’s because he is the only guitarist in the band) plays an important role when it comes to song writing. 80% of Joanna & Co’s songs are composed by Ijam and Joanna. Therefore, he is the coolest. Ijam is currently playing for other local underground bands like Freygyle, Elm Kids and etc etc. Ijam is an icon when it comes to combing hair. Jaws of all ages falls flat on the ground whenever they see Ijam’s hair combing routine.

Farid looks like he eats kids; but he really is a funny guy. Everywhere he goes people calls him "brader", its either because his brother billy is hot, or because he looks like everyone’s brother. Farid joined the band in early 2007 when the previous drummer was too chicken shit to play for Joanna & Co. Farid was pulled by Ijam and it was a blessing that Joanna & Co is finally settled after the lost of the chicken shit drummer who stole cds. According to Joanna, Farid has really good taste in music and he deserves the spotlight in the band. However, this funnyman is reported to be very shy.

Kusha is the last puzzle that perfected Joanna & Co. His mad bass skills makes people wanna be him or wanna be WITH him. Kusha's lips contradicts with his hands. He doesn’t talk much but yet his fingers can pluck mad tunes. There are no other way for me, to describe how CRAZY this dude is. You just have to come down and see him for yourself. I swear, he will blow ur mind away. And as far as questions asked towards Kusha about his mad skills, a humble Kusha said "No Comment."
