Dubstep

life's been mundane.
work, work, work and more work.
i've been listening to too much dubstep lately.

some of my favorite

65daysofstatic - WK4 (Live in London 04/26/2009)

new stuff from 65daysofstatic.
looking forward for their latest album.
so bloody awesome.
still true to their original sound
their synths and drum beats are just so catchy.
usually their live shows would have visuals to go with it.
but for this one, i think the lights do enough justice.
OMG!

malique - rahsia

Cerita terjadi
Cerita
Cerita terjadi
Ceritakan

Intro

Korang nak dengar rahsia tak korang?
Kalau cerita korang jangan cerita orang
Janji dulu
Korang tak kan pecah lobang
Jangan pasal korang ku sakit sorang

Pada satu masa tak lama dulu
Orang mula berhijrah ke hutan batu
Ada lelaki dan ada wanita
Ada yang cari nama ada yang cari harta

Verse 1
Ada minah ni namanya rahsia
Binti apa entah tak pernah bertanya
Keluarga entah kenalnya di kota
Kata dari sini tipu dengan lorat desa

Duduk rumah sewa 6 jahanam jadi kawan
3 tak kerja 3 lagi shif malam
Gaduh dengan 2 hal dato kumis nipis
Dia kenal dulu mereka yang dapat kikis
Takpe orang kaya banyak
Cuba skali 3 4 hidup mesti tamak

Nampak anak Tansri umur jauh muda
Janji kereta 500 kuasa kuda
Erm dengar ada botol sauh
Ada burung putih besar boleh terbang jauh
Cincin gelang rantai ada loket
Betina mana tengok tak terjoget

Rumah atas bukit kamar bercahaya
Kamera disorok boleh ambil gambar rahsia
Tunjuk kengkawan semua puji ketawa
Baru tau orang kaya tak boleh percaya

Ha ha ha
Ha ha ha
Baru tau orang kaya tak boleh percaya
Cerita terjadi
Cerita
Cerita terjadi
Ceritakan

Intro (repeat)

Verse 2
Ada 1 hero melayu namanya juga rahsia
Dulu lepak tepi parit kampung
Sekarang lepak media masa
Asal boleh masuk tv dia mesti buat
Awek tengok jambu lelaki tengok meluat
Ceritarasa makin besar otak makin ketat
Baru angkat berat sikit baju pun dah sendat

Jalan nak berkepak dengan awek romantis
Biasalah budak baru nak naik jadi artis
Biasalah budak baru nak naik jadi artis
Biasalah budak baru nak naik jadi artis

Jakun jadi pelakon ke makan malam
Dinner show nyanyi orang tak paham
Tapi datin muda tengok geram sangkut
Dato outstation datin apa lagi angkut

Terima kasih power root
Rahsia diterima
Kalau sudi lagi boleh main gila

Datin kena taruk rahsia kemaruk
Makan boleh tapi jangan sampai kena lauk
Dato pegi London muka pucat bila balik
Bini buncit sikit tau dia tak boleh naik

Nak jadi terkenal harus pandai main api
Rahsia tinggal rahsia tak kan masuk tv lagi
Rahsia tak kan masuk tv lagi
Rahsia tinggal rahsia tak kan masuk tv lagi

**one of malique song taken from his OK album.
he makes good lyrics with flow and rhythm.
some say he's snobbish.
i think he's just a low profiled person.
he's awesome nonetheless.

Butterfingers- Mati Hidup Kembali

Jalan raya terlampau sunyi
Untuk ku terus bermimpi
Mataku belum mengantuk lagi
Bawa ke mana sahaja kupergi

Tunjukkan ku bulan gerhana
Tiada siapa nak kujumpa
Pendirian tiada kusangka ada
Oh tak mengapa oh tak mengapa

Malam semalam gundah gulana
Hari ini hari mulia
Tak pernah daku rasa begini
Seperti mati hidup kembali

Bawa kuhilang dari ingatan
Hari ini sehingga esok
Tak pernah daku rasa begini
Seperti mati hidup kembali

Agar sepenuh dengan pendirian
Kucapai sebelah tangan
Sebalik awan ada cahaya
Bercahayalah selamanya

Daku tertawa seorang diri
Darah yang mengalir terhenti
Fikiranku melayang-layang
Tiada siapa yang perasan

Malam semalam gundah gulana
Hari ini hari mulia
Tak pernah daku rasa begini
Seperti mati hidup kembali

Bawa kuhilang dari ingatan
Hari ini sehingga esok
Tak pernah daku rasa begini
Seperti mati hidup kembali

david davison / maps and atlases

a song by dave davison.
not a traditional way of playing the guitar but is absolutely inspirational.
he also plays for the band maps and atlases. a math rock band from Chicago, Illinois.
with much influence from don caballero and hella they try to produce a sound that is both technical and organic.

i know you don't intent to.

tam is the most unintentionally funniest person ever!
for example,
in the car 2 days ago

me: have you heard of the song the climb by miley cyrus?

tam: who's miley cyrus?

*background music playing taylor swift - you belong to me*

tam: is this miley cyrus? *refering to the background music*

me: no! that's taylor swift. miley cyrus is hannah montana. tylor swift is the girl that sings ever after the song that the boys like to sing to piss everyone else out.

tam: huh? owh. the one that goes i like girls, i make out with my girlfriend yeah?

me: huh?!?

tam: ya lah! she sings i like girls.. then something.. then i make out with my girl friend.

me: NOO!!! that's katy perry! i kissed a girl!

mana dia ada nyanyi macam tu! she didnt say make out or i like girls...

T.T

tam: owh.. sama je..

*sigh* *sigh*

me: takpelah...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yeah.. that's why tam is always unintentionally funny.

(side note- tam should really listen to more commercial music. haha.)

passion pit - the reeling

how could you not fall in love with them.
i love how the video is done.
the collage look and paper strips and the 80's feel to it.
i should learn how to make videos like this! huhu.
passion pit reminds me of MGMT and a bit of m83.
worth checking out if you feel like dancing on a friday morning.
