Shayna Zaid (NYC) - Live in Concert at Bar Savanh Too, Plaza Mont Kiara KL

Malaysian-American singer and songwriter, Shayna Zaid is coming back to share a piece of her heart through her second album, Half A World Away, as well as exclusive tracks from her highly anticipated third album to be released in 2008. These albums were produced in New York City and were specially recorded in celebration of her roots here in Malaysia as a dedication to her culture and heritage. Shayna Zaid’s unique vibe and signature sound encompasses many culturally diverse influences stemming from her childhood in Malaysia to her coming of age in the United States. Shayna’s soulful voice is unmistakable; powerful yet tender, strong yet sweet, and mature beyond her years. Combining very catchy hooks, heavily textured background vocals, clever lyrics, and beat driven music, Shayna’s music can compete with anything on radio today. Charisma and personality pour out of Shayna and her music, making it remarkably commercial, yet authentic and unique. The album is a “first of its kind” blend of American Pop, R&B, fused with traditional musical elements that originate from this part of the world which Shayna still proudly calls home. A concert not to be missed !!! The event also features DJ Johan to continue with the after party of R&B and Housexy music. Ticket counter opens by 8pm. Entry: RM35 (which include 1 drink) Time: 9pm-3am Bar Savanh Too is located directly behind McDonalds at Sunrise Plaza Mont Kiara.

Discolicious CNY Invitation at Heritage Mansion

Discolicious is a concept of music being timeless. It is the story of evolution in the sound of Disco that began in the 70’s and constantly changing through the time in its current form of Disco House, drawing influence from the past. From the signature boogie tunes made popular by Salsoul Records, (a blend of Salsa and Soul), the fashion and lifestyle made infamous by clubs like Studio54 in New York and hit movies like Saturday Night Fever, Staying Alive and Xanadu, the disco movement ruled the airwaves and was a global phenomenon.

House music pioneers today were all in some way educated and continue the musical journey through labels like Hed Kandi, Strictly Rhythm, Twisted and Defected. Innovative DJ Producers like Phats & Smalls, Dimitri from Paris, Jamiroqui and Bob Sinclar pushed the scene by sampling famous disco anthems and bass lines of the past, if they’re not producing the new disco sound for the future.

Let DJ’s Bernie, Jason Martin, Ali B (Australia), Garry T and Johan take you over 40 years of music, skillfully blending the infectious rhythms and educating the clubbers of today where the original songs and lyrics came from and where it is still evolving now, mixing the classic hit disco music with the sexy disco house beats of today and creating a new cocktail of what we call, Discolicious.

Before Hip Hop and House, there was Disco! Every Thursday nights, exclusively at Heritage Mansion.
