Another evidence that Singapore doesn’t lack musical talents. It’s just that we don’t know where to find them.
Found out about Juliet Pang when I saw my friend post photos of her performance at Esplanade on facebook. I must say that her voice is pretty good. If only she don’t add those “special effects” on her [...]

Got to know Benjamin lately at Hackerspace Singapore. He is a pretty good singer and provided lots of entertainment during our Christmas party last friday.
I didn’t know he is a contestant for Singapore Idol 3. I don’t watch Singapore Idol anyway. And he was eliminated pretty early. Which is quite a pity. I think [...]

I’ve heard about The Fire Fight for quite some time. But never had a chance to catch them live until the recent Youreka finale party. And they are good man. Here are 2 of my fave songs.
The Fire Fight – Candela
The Fire Fight – Dreamer
And I also discovered that I know their Manager. Haha. Singapore [...]

It’s been a long time since I bought a music CD. I think the last CD I bought was Shirlyn Tan’s Newfound Jealousy. That is more than 2 years ago! And don’t get me wrong. I don’t download music too. I’m been listening to podcast and online streaming. So buying a CD can be considered [...]

We always hear people saying that Singapore has no musical talents. Well, if that is the case, then explain this.
Ling Kai – 21 Years
Her name is Ling Kai. Her self-penned acoustic guitar song ‘Larkin Step’ garnered over a million hits on youtube.
We do have talents in Singapore. It’s just that they are hidden somewhere in [...]

We always complain that local talents doesn’t get enough exposure in the mainstream media. We have couple of great local bands/singers out there. Just that they haven’t got a chance to proof themselves.
I’m pretty excited when I saw sixtyfive.sg from Hisham’s twitter. Sixtyfive.sg is a site showcasing local bands. Visitors get to check out [...]

Another nice song by local band Plainsunset. Starworld used this song for their Heroes promotion clip.
Plainsunset – Johari Window
You’ve been a part of me so long
Just not the part that keeps me strong
You’ve been a part of me and I know
That I will miss you when you go
So long you’ve been a part of me
Just [...]

Stumble upon this cover of “The time of my life” by a Singapore girl call HazeLua. Nice voice. Kinda reminds me of Marie Digby.
She even writes her own songs. Wow….
Check out other videos by her. Or visit her website.

Remember Shirlyn Tan? I blog about her last month when I went for the album launch. Her MV for the song “Window” is out. And she uploaded it to youtube. Cool. This is so unlike some recording companies and singers where they are quite against their music being placed on youtube for everyone. I strongly [...]
