On Wednesday 19 November, join us again for a night of good old fashioned fun and creative networking, Pecha Kucha style at The Apartment Downtown @ Suria KLCC.

If you haven’t heard of Pecha Kucha Night Kuala Lumpur, it can basically be summed up as a night of quick draw presentations by creatively inclined beings, good company, cool tunes by DJ Blastique and even greater conversations. Try it to believe it!

We’ve got an excellent line up of presenters - check it out here.

Massive respect to Richard and Dan of twentyone for booking me, taking care of all my needs and for making me feel completely at home. Also, a huge thank you goes to EVERYONE who made it down for this very memorable gig. I can’t say that I’ve had as much fun playing solo anywhere in KL until that night itself. You peeps on the dancefloor stayed till the absolute end and it was a mad feeling seeing ya getting down to breaks and bass

I have uploaded a coupla hours of the set here. I wanted the whole thing, but unfortunately my recorder was acting a bit funky, corrupted the beginning of the file, and decided to run out 1 hour before the end, grrrr!

Anyhow, enjoy! Next up, face2face…

Face book Party, facebook party, face2face, lets face it, it’s a f***kn facebook party, and it’s the talk of the town, but here’s the low-down… First off, I am not one of the organisers of the event, however, I happen to be performing amongst two prolific and downright awesome DJ’s and I consider myself to be very fortunate having this opportunity!

There are impostors out there claiming to be doing their own little Facebook party. Seriously though, if I were to quote, word for word, the emails that were coming in from these supposed “organisers”, you would personally laugh them out of town!

Let me reassure you that I know the organisers of face2face, and they have materialized this vision of theirs over months of hard work. The quality of this event to be witnessed, in about 3 weeks time, will be testament to that.

So get on over to the facebook event page for face2face and RSVP!

Here’s another lovely bit of news from Silo Recordings Label-Guru Mikey…

Hey everyone

Super-duper-uber-BO!!!!!

As released on Foundationkl.org last month, I’ve now added it to my mix portfolio here at blastique.net. Here’s the lovely blurb that was written:-

Ableton Live whiz-kid, Blastique, returns from a long hiatus here on FKL with one hell of mixset to kick start the week. And in typical fashion, the listener is assaulted right from the get go with a plethora of rocking-bass-funking-madness as the boy rips out a barrage of multi-layered tracks, stitched with a surgical precision that would make any Nip/Tuck surgeon cream his pants. Not to mention plenty of live, on-the-fly SFX manipulations and sampling.

So get ready for some insane non-linear editing from Blastique and sheer awesomeness from Alex Metric, Splitloop, SuperStyleDeluxe, DJ Fixx, Kickflip and a whole lot more.

One word. Sick.

Artist: Blastique
Title: Do It Like Rabbits (Deepgroove Remix)
Label: SILO
Release date: Sept 08

“From the first to the last release on Silo… classically trained sonic alchemist Reuben Samuel, aka Blastique, cut a groove out for himself with the original release of ‘Rabbits back in November ‘06. A hot mixture of progressive vibes and rolling tech-funk, DJ’s championing it included Hybrid (”playing it more and more!… Love it!”) and Nick Thayer (”the kind of relentless rolling tech-funk that I really dig”).

This time around it’s all twisted bleeps, squeaks, and wobbly bass as we get a nasty tech-house turn-in courtesy of pioneering duo Deepgroove (Underwater / Slave / Klang Elektronik). As druggy as they come, it’s all squelching basslines and sharp percussive edits set around a massively infectious groove. One for darkened rooms and big systems.”
