Hmm...
Went for the Heineken Green Room focus group discussion on Monday. Was quite interesting. Met a bunch of folks there, namely Wayne from JUICE, Amanda from Electrico and DJ Feng. Was introduced to music producer Case who did an electronic album with Kit Chan, I believe. Since he had been recommended by some friends, namely Fuzz (if I can remember correctly), I asked him if he did mastering as well. He started bitching how Don Bartley ex-chief mastering engineer of Sydney's Studio 301 really screwed up Concave Scream's Horizons. He made a very interesting point about how all the local albums still sound softer than their international counterparts and how that really pisses him off. It really makes the Singapore acts look amateurish and bad. Interesting.
However, there was this chick from a PR agency who was all out to impress the Heineken brand managers at every opportunity she got. She kept praising the team about how good the Green Room Sessions were and how glamourous the events were. Fucken bitch sounded like she was going for a job interview. Probably, she was, considering the fact that she admitted earlier that she would bring shitloads of namecards to network at parties.
Me? When they handed out a survey form, I placed the most important reason for being at the focus group: Money.
By the way, The Lard Brothers (which Jason Ong has been asking what the hell this is all about.) is finishing up an original track 'Democracy'. Weiyuan'd be probably recording Max's final vocals over the weekend. Gotta check with my colleague Andrew to see if he'd be scratching over the track. We'd be starting on a new track 'Monster' soon. I'm thinking of doing it ala George Michael as a tribute tune. Well, I've been listening way too much George Michael these days... that and DJ Krush. Kinda weird though.
Thankfully, The Love Experiment will finally start recording next week if nothing goes wrong. Hopefully, the album will be completed before our 30th birthday... Heh.
