Yoz! Just came back from work not too long ago...sigh..it really sucks to work on saturdays...cause it makes the weekends feel so short...and its like friday just ended but look at the time! Its already 4.06pm..sigh..oh well..the worse thing is I have nothing on for the weekends -.- Gahs...So no life de...luckily Jeremy just messaged me...asking me if i wanna join him for dinner..cause he's coming over to amk to buy 4D for his mum...lol..ok anw..thats later...now i'm just gonna continue my life story from where i stopped at my previous post (for ppl who had lost contact with me or just wanna know me better...) and on my way home i was thinking "Hmm..maybe i'll update on everyone about my music today..." lol..and i'm actually blogging while playing a game called naruto arena (http://www.naruto-arena.com) Naruto fans should go play this...its an multiplayer online game where u can form your own ninja teams and battle in an arena...no animation provided and no music...most importantly it helps u waste your time...haha but actually its a little addictive...at least for me..and for now...lol...i'll post some screenshots and explain a bit on the gameplay on my next post...meanwhile...back to my music...:)
Hmm..lets start with a little history lesson...I started writing my own songs when I was as young as 17..(ok the 'as young as' was just to make it sound like i'm some child prodigy..) but the fact is I started writing my first song in Lecture Theatre 4 in AJC at the end of J1 i think...well..as most of you should (or maybe not?) know that my first song is called 'Yong Heng De Ai' or eternal love when translated into english...It was actually written after a breakup..and you can say that it is actually a cry of hope for an enternal love...hmmmm ok thats just to make the song sound more meaningful...but i remembered sitting down in front of the piano in LT4 and playing in front of kianhuat (lyricist), wanping (jie) and jin zi (bobby)..it is true that i was terribly hurt by the girl then and that I almost went into a state of depression...but fortunately my friends supported and held on to me..telling me that the right one will come soon...I believed them..and I trusted them...so i started to hope...and this hope led to me composing one of the nicest songs i've ever written..'Enternal love' (I will post this up as soon as i find a reliable file host that will not crash and allows only streaming...anyone know of any? tag pls...) This song brought me to the talent time finals in AJC and I'll never forget the time when me and kianhuat was specially invited to sing this song in front of AJC again in a guitar concert...It was a moment of fame for all of us...and it was the song I first composed...:)
Ok..that was how it all started..and as of today..i'm proud to announce that I've finished composing 7 songs...from pop ballades, rock, country and recently big band style(think new york new york)...I will post this songs up as soon as possible for everyone to enjoy...but this few weeks i've working more on my second song (xing fu de ding yi) with my band...well...I havent got a chance to take a photo of all 4 members...but they are Jeremy Goh(Drummer), Cheston(Guitarist), Desmond(Lead singer/guitarist) and Zhi Xiang(Keyboardist)...and here's our band logo...
Nice rite? this was designed by Jeremy and he did it in an amazing 30 minutes...He's really the artist among the 4 of us...and in fact he had actually designed some stuff for AJC as well...which includes Point X (our mama shop) and this huge wall outside our band (AJC symphonic band...not my band..:P) room..I mean..he really amazes ppl with his art skills man...oh well...but everyone has their strengths..so nothing to be envious about...lol :P
Ok..back to the band...so like i was saying...i've recently formed a little band and we call ourselves 'Popconz'. And y popconz? well..initially Jeremy and I came up with the name when we walked pass this popcon store (i think) outside hougang mall...then we were thinking...pop con can = pop icon = ppl who play pop...EUREKA! Popconz!!! ok ok i can see that some of u have the =_= face already..but who cares..mi lu bing also won in the finals...so y not popconz...and i have told my fellow members that we will be a band that plays our own original music...we will not only play music...we will create music...we will make music...:) well...everyone sort of have a role in the band...like desmond writes lyrics..cheston is the technical expert...jeremy does technical, music demos and arranges...and me, zhixiang composes the songs...i mean isnt this cool?? An original band with an original band name..playing original songs..and supports original stuff.................hmmm...not too sure about the last part...but ANYWAY...music is my life...and I will never stop making music...sadly I'm losing inspiration these few days...sigh...can someone be my inspiration pls?? :P
Ok...so i'll end off here first...will update more about my job..my life..my sorrows...my problems...my magic...my friends...my family...my naruto....the next time when i blog again...
