Rumors About I.J Studios

2006-06-28T08:32:00.000-07:00

msg frm shai:

so the rumour mill has been working overtime.
"IJ has closed".
"IJ this"
"IJ that".

lets get it straight. im very closely affiliated to the owner of IJ as some of you are too, and might know.

IJ studios is temporarily suspended, yes. why? on 11 June there was a show called METALCORE vs PUNKROCK and there was a case of bullying and an eventual fight. there has been a few scuffles at shows there yes but that one took the cake because
1) when volunteers come down to 'jaga' IJ in case of trouble nothing happens, but on that day when all the volunteers were busy shit had to happen
2) apparently a fight , of which i only have second-hand info of, took place and was caught on the building CCTV. IJ owner, "Abang Wan", the management and the cops were called in.

cops locked the place up and the venue will remain sealed until the case is settled. as a result, Wan has been smacked with a $300 fine due to the crap that happened. fights, vandalism (which fucker burnt the washing machine anyway?), dustbins thrown to the first level, blah blah.

i am fucking pissed off. because i have always encouraged and advised people to take care of the space and be responsible whether yr an organizer, band or paying member of the audience.

i was surprised to know that all the footage of kids playing with the industrial lift, drinking, loitering, smoking in the common area fell under the NO PROBLEM category. that shows that building management has been very lenient with us. so if they had to shut the space down it means things went too far right?

so promoters/bands/people reading this, please take note. IJ Studios, or any other gig space, is not only Wan's responsibility, its mine and it is yours. the space has been abused and Wan has to take the shit for it. is it fair? you tell me.

i have also heard a lot of rumours about bastards accusing Wan of running away with gig money and all that. thats a load of utter crap. me and my friends have done shows and recording sessions many many times there before and he has never been calculative about money. yes it is hot as fuck there and yes equipment fucks up time to time but i have never been happier with a space as cheap, lenient and understanding to the scene as IJ.

people had better sit up and take notice and do something and get some sense knocked into their heads. for once i refuse to blame the cops for any problems should (choy choy) the space be shut down, because the roots of the problem are all down to our own idiocy.

11 June is not a one off problem. shit has happened many many times. there was even a time where the security guard was almost beaten up by a 'fashioncore kid'. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!

punks thrashers hc kids come down in droves at every show and as 'threatening' as they look there has been no problems at all.

i could list down names that have been 'paotoh-ed' that has led to this shit. you people better wake up your idea because if the space shuts down, you fuckers have a lot to answer for.

spread this all around on your kiddy forums and e-groups, i dont give a shit. lets solve this problem before it becomes a permanent predicament.

this it the most sensible thing ive ever seen. and im glad its going around myspace bulletin posts.

This section is taken from here

There are some issues which you people really need to read and think really hard at why it happened.

Heres the first one:

WAN IJ will moved to JB in July.

No more IJ studio here.

Heres the second:

From Wan IJ himself. He will moved there till eternity.

Once, IJ Studio is one of the few studios in Singapore where Extreme Metal, especially BM can be recorded. Now, there are a dozen around. There is no use staying in Singapore with the expensive rent that he could use to pay for 2 months rent in JB.

IJ Studio has always and will always be the place where Extreme Metallers gather once and have their materials rekorded, now its infested with full of HC, Emo, Indie skumz

But no worries... Joes got a msg from Wan himself saying that I.J is not closing and there will be one more studio opening at Johor at Skudai.....

So BlooDy take care of I.J studios........

Punkrock Versus Metal

2006-06-18T08:32:00.000-07:00

Orite Guys...... The gig punkrock versus metal was a bloody blast....

It all happens when we Joe and Syed (organisers)wen there around 11 plus..... Syed Go chase by a dog... Hehe... It was very funnie.... After The setup was done... We chilled out side the studio...

Around 1 plus... 2 people came..... Joe was abit worried about the crowd not coming due to the rain the was forming in the sky..... the Gig was supposed to start at around 2....The first band (hopekilled) came at 2.11.... The rain started..... The crowd started pouring in at When the rain had paused for a while.... When hopekilled performed.... The crowd packing....Until they stand outside...

Then it was Murdered By Ska turn to perform... People keeping coming in.... Joe,Syed and Fir was so overwhelm by the people who came.... Estimation around 100 plus people came to their first gig ever made.....

The crowd started to mosh and having a great time..... Dark Resurrection was up next..... Then every one started to get dressed up.... Mabok and Khairi dressed up as nerd boys... Joe dressed as an old man... Berg wear only boxers.... It was very funny... Izaac have a very smart look......

The moment we entered the room,it was so warm in side b'coz of the body heat..... When we started our first cover song,94 hours,people were moshing their heads out....... The following song was Rise by Bleeding Through.... The whole room of people was moshing.... until zul And sid from Shadows Embrace had to stand on stage with us........ People were all over the place... We even had a feller who headbang infront of Izaac..... People were shouting,demanding us to play Black Lable by Lamb Of God.....

We agreed to play.... We told them to divide themself... Forming a walls of death.... IT WAS THE BIGGEST WALLS OF DEATH WE EVER HAD........

Berg screamed...1....2....3..... The people started to clash with each other Moshing like there was no tomorow....hehe.....It was the biggest Walls of death we had... We were very happy with the crowd and ourself........ We got alot of comment after our set.... And of the comment was good....

Emolition

2006-05-19T10:30:00.000-07:00

Ok Guys.... Sori for the late update.....

The gig emolition was a bloody blast..... But the problem was that the crowd was not that pack..... But aniways.... We really enjoyed alot... Obsuce Phionix was performing with us too......

The thing about that gig was that,form my band onwards,everybody was playing behind time.... The reason was that one of the speakers exploded or sumthing... So we all had to wait for Abang Wan (the owner of I.J studios)to come and replace the new speaker....

This was berg's first time performing alone... And he really proves to the band that he can manage alone....Although he's still abit slow in the timing... but he can manage alone...... Good for him....

Actually our time slot was at around 5 plus... But in the end we performed at around 7 plus at nite.... But we still enjoyed our self there....

Ok guys.... On the 4 June We will be performing again with Shadows Embrace,Rhetorical Theory,Obscure Phionix,Jackalhyde,Death Defyer and many other great bands.....

(sori about the flyer....)

And on the 11 June JOe and two other Guys from 201,Syed And Fir (Open Ended Truth),made a gig called Punkrock Vs Metal.... So Do come an catch us and other great bands on these daes....

Todae Was a very sad day for Izaac And Joe... Shah leaves The band...
It all started when A guy called us... NAmed Kassim.... A friend of Zul from Shadows Embrace.... He said that we are invited to perform a gig on the 4 of Jun...

So Joe went home to called every one to confirm with them.... All of them said ok... Except for Shah..... He said that he needs to go for a camp in Mount Kinabalu or Mount Ophir or something... He claimed that he told Joe..... But as far as JOe remembered... He didn't even said anithing...

Joe and Izaac called him down to 211 the next dae to talk to him....
so when he reach there we sat down away from the others and talk... Izaac started the conversation... He asked about what was his problem in the band and every thing....from his facial expression... Its obviously clear that Izaac very pissed off with Shah.... After the long conversation... Joe ask a question.... "Are u interested in the band anymore?"Then he kept quiet..... Then he said "After a long thought... I guess i wanna out a fullstop here..." Joe ask really?" He replied "Yeah"

So now Dark Resurrection is a five piece band....no worries... We still have the will to move on.... we are still performing at the 4 jun gig.... So plz do come down and support us......

This is the last that you can see Dark Resurrection as a six piece band......

About death metal

2006-03-05T01:26:00.000-08:00

Death metal is a sub-genre of Heavy Metal that evolved out of Thrash Metal during the early 1980s. Commonly recognized characteristics include rhythmic, chromatic progressions and a narrative or "story telling" song structure such that there is not a verse-chorus cycle as much as an ongoing development of themes and motifs. Aesthetically, it is usually identified by violent rhythm guitar, fast percussion and dynamic intensity. "Blast beats" are frequently used to add to the ferocity of the music. The vocals are commonly low gurgles named growl, death growl, or death grunt. This kind of vocalising is distorted by use of the throat, unlike traditional singing technique which discourages it. Music journalist Chad Bowar notes that, due to the similarity of the vocals to "unintelligible yelling", the style is sometimes described as "Cookie monster vocals"[1]. Also, those not familiar with the genre sometimes confuse it with "Deathrock".

Death metal's subject matter usually addresses more nihilistic themes than any other genre (except maybe black metal), usually using metaphors of a gruesome nature to represent a larger concept. The focus on mortality along with the extreme nature of the music (as well as the name of Death, one of the genre's pioneers) likely inspired the naming of this genre as "death" metal.

Death metal is commonly known for abrupt tempo and count/time signature changes, and extremely fast and complex guitar and drumwork, although this is not always the case. Bands of this genre frequently utilize downtuned and distorted guitars, a downtuned, sometimes distorted bass guitar, a drum set (almost universally using two bass drums). Although this is the standard setup, bands have been known to incorporate other instruments such as keyboards. Death metal is very physically demanding of its musicians, especially in its more "technical" forms.

Sorrry For The Late Update.....

2006-01-21T22:30:00.000-08:00

Hey guys....

Sorry for the late update....We are currently busy learning new songs to cover.... We were thinking of covering Ruin by Lamb Of God,Laid To Rest by LAmb Of God,Rise by Bleeding Through,i Will Be Heard by Hatebreed and a few more others that we haven'tmade our minds up......

So far we have complete a song called Ruin.... But there's alot of brushing up to do..... Like the drum solo that Izaac had to do after the lead part.... Izaac had the idea in general,which tomp or which symbol he must hit,its just that he had to do it in a fast pace...

After the jamming session... We sat down at 211 and talk things out....
We comment on each other's tecnicality upon they instrument and vocals... Every body agreed about each others comment...

We are now in search of Gigs..... We want to expose ourself..... So any of u guys knoe any gigs that have slots... Please contact us..... We'd really appreciate it.....

Ok guys here's some video for u...... this bands are seriously good.... Check out their drummer.....

This band is called Crytopsy

One of the best gig so far

2005-12-26T09:57:00.000-08:00

Oh gosh.....

Sunday 25th dec.. Was by far the best gigs that we had ever perform..... We really enjoyed ourself.......Eventhough the place was not big,the heat was unbearable,we were sweating like hell,Izaac had to remove his shirt to just continue playing the drum....But still the crowd was great.... We didn't expect this to happen.... We played the same song that was played on dec 17 "Gate Way To Hell"....We even covered a song from a local band called "Worms" and the song was titled "Chillie Tofu"...

We really had a bloody good time....The people who were not the same genre with us was still supporting every metal band.... That's what i call support the local scene......

Every song that we played had a mosh pit....

But the most breath taking part of our set was the song that we covered by Lamb Of God called Black Lable...... There was the WALLS OF DEATH..... Bloody awesome man....

We Dark Resurrection would like to thank:

Suzie and the organiser(sori we didn't noe the Abang's name)...

Shadows Embrace for helping us out during setting up...

To our detracters for firing us up....

and not forgetting Irwan of Jackalhyde!!!!

Once again thanx to you guys..... You guys made us have the confident......
Joe would like to say thanx to Sid from Shadows Embrace for reminding him from boosting his bass amp too loud.... hehe....

Be sure to catch us on the up coming gig....

........SUPPORT THE LOCAL SCENE.........

The Horrible GiG...

2005-12-18T08:24:00.000-08:00

Shit!!!!! The gig GAte Way to Hell SUCK BIG TIME!!!! The sound was horibble... The crowd is really...really....BAD...

The Problems......

(The Guitarist)
Khai couldn't hear his ampliflier not even Izaac....
MAbok even worse,his amplifier was very soft then the sound man was just sitting there not doing anything....

(Drummer)
The drum mic was not on or to soft..... The crew didn't do anything also.....

(vocals)
The mic was faulty......Shah was screaming his heart out and Berg was on the verge on giving up........
All b'coz of the sound man...... Shit!!!!
Berg was so angry that he jump and wanted to body surf but no one supported him....
And he fell...... HEHEHE!!

The orginiser said that it was gonna be like a concert..... The prop over shadowed the sound..... He said that there will be the crew to help us out....But i Saw none.... There was once, when we only finish the set... They were like wanting to chase us out......They were like "ok guys!!out.. out"...Is it fair that we pay good money to perform and in the end we get only less time to play as what was promise.... Fucking rubbish..... And the worse part was that the playing order was change.... the reason was, the other bands came late and had to push them in..... WHAT KIND OF RUBBISH IS THAT?... If the other bands came late.... Ask them to play last.... Shah had to leave early b'coz of sum problem.... They didn't even told us that there was a change of time....
Haiz!!

But Never mind.....We promise a better energetic performance.....
We are having a gig this sunday at I.J building..... At Paya Lebar.....
