Nightsound

Sunday evenings are usually quiet ones for me. But last Sunday was a little different, I went for a rock concert. Or at least, I assume it was rock, which I will explain a little more along the way.

Invited by a friend, XR, who recently became a part of a local band called Nightsound, I found myself in a little black room with about a 100 seats at The Arts House, waiting for the concert to begin.

XR, sporting a new beard and playing the keyboards, looked every bit like a grunge artist. He had always been very talented in music and it is great to see him involved in a band, adding buzz to our local arts scene.

Nightsound, apparently, has been around since 1999. That makes it 8 years, which is a rather long time, and which is also strange that not many of us knew about the band. The lights dimmed gradually. But in the dark, we could still make out the musicians in their long black trench coats taking their places on stage one by one. Then with the drummer starting the beat and the lights on again, the concert began.

Nightsound is made up of the drums, the bass, the keyboards, the guitars and the vocals. For a band like this, one would expect the music to be loud, which it is, but the audience was quite tame I must say. It was not until the Japanese rapper (an invited guest) who added more funk to the music that the audience started warming up to the atmosphere.

When the concert drew to a close, I started wondering about the kind of music that Nightsound does. It did not feel like rock, but yet it was not too far from rock. So I asked XR how he would classify it. "It's more filmic, visual kind of music," he explained. Cheem, I thought to myself. "...the music brings visual images to the mind," he added. Then I began to understand.

Nightsound collaborates with local directors who use their music for films. So think about the kind of music you hear from local English films and that is possibly the kind of music I heard last Sunday evening. Not really rock, but yet not too far from rock.

Happy Children's Day!

1st Oct used to be one of my favourite days, where we'd attend joyous school concerts on the eve and receive presents from the teachers and best of all enjoy a school holiday!

So, even though it's 10.51PM right now, and the day's almost over, and most of you are above-21, I still wanna wish EVERYONE (yes, EVERYONE, as long as you had been a child before ;) )

a Happy Children's Day!!


Let the child in you always keep you happy (^v^)
