Love Me Butch: Worldwide Transgression
Formed in 1997, Love Me Butch is one band that refuses to be labelled as a one hit wonder. Instead of sitting on the fame they had gained with their 2005 single ‘Hollywood Holiday’, the quartet strived for regional acclamation by touring most of Southeast Asia. The band has since opened for international bands like […]
Jabèplastik: Britrock Wisdom
Hafiz Rafar has been involved in the music scene for the past 15 years, evolving from one genre to another and at one point the drummer of afternoon tea before deciding to pursue his own career. Now based in the UK and known as Jabèplastik, he’s busy dabbling in electronic instruments, channeling them through tunes […]
Marionexxes: Sexy Indie Pop
‘Harimau Malaya’ might be the song they are best known for commercially but it was ‘Marilyn Monroe’ that cemented their presence to us. Their brand of subversive pop punk mixed with transcendental Engrish lyrics (this is not snark, honest) on the latter track is heightened to great effect on ‘Pop’, the first single off their […]
Celldweller: ‘Frozen’
Imagine Marilyn Manson, deadmau5 and Vannila Ice (post-’Ice Ice Baby’) all rolled into one! Here’s electronic rock mastermind Celldweller’s new music video…
Zee Avi: Ghostbird
Zee Avi, Malaysia’s answer to a Mandy Mapes and Norah Jones amalgam is back. After her tour of doing Malaysia proud and putting us (finally) on the international radar, she tiptoes cautiously to the expansion of her sound. On Ghostbird, she tries to reach precariously out of her comfort zone and experiment a little. This […]
She & Him: Christmas Day
Whilst Christmas has probably not held claim to a particularly ‘hip’ image since JC and the Biblical days, sometimes all it takes is the endorsement of Hipster Royalty to make a commercial craze buzzworthy again.
Oliver Huntemann: Paranoia
Techno doesn’t get a lot of respect or wider recognition in electronic music these days. More prone to conjure stereotypical imageries of E-laden youths in dingy underground London clubs than music critic acknowledgment, it is fitting that Oliver Huntemann’s Paranoia happens to be released at this point of the genre’s growth. With it, not only […]
Dum Dum Girls: Only In Dreams
Dum Dum Girls is one vintage venerating band that could easily be dismissed as just that, yet another retro reverent band. But that would be reductive criticism. Informed by France’s yé-yé (a contemporary example would be April March of ‘Chick Habit’ fame), they’ve certainly gotten enough criticism of that from their debut. Sophomore album Only […]
Soft Rocks: The Curse of Soft Rocks
Distancing themselves from the monotony of today’s musical palette, Soft Rocks, out of Brighton UK, have pieced together a musical soundscape on their new album The Curse Of Soft Rocks. After a pause in musical releases spent spinning edgy parties and curating mixtapes for the likes of Beats in Space and ID Magazine, the new […]
Feist: Metals
It’s a music critic cliché to claim an artist has grown every time they release a new record. So we’ll do one better and say that Feist has always had the maturity despite her traipsing the fine (and rickety) line between artistry and commercial success. You’ve known her through obvious hits like ‘1, 2, 3, […]
