Steve Gerrard - Bedrock // Wrecked Angle
In 1998, Steve Gerrard emerged to win Muzik Magazine's prestigious Bedroom Bedlam award. Influenced by some of the leading figures of the past few years, such as Sasha and John Digweed, Nick Warren, Danny Howells, Hybrid and many more, Steve's DJ style brings together deep progressive sounds, breakbeat and much more, and is so greatly popular that it has seen him grace the decks at many of the world's best clubs.
Recently having supported John Digweed on a Bedrock university tour of the UK, act as resident at the nights of people like Steve Lawler and even promote his own weekly events. Steve has taken each step in his stride, and it's his level headed approach to djing that has earned him respect from fans and peers alike. John Digweed had this to say about the album - "Steve Gerrard's reputation as a great DJ is increasing year on year. This mix shows exactly why, with a cool mix of house and breaks".
It would seem the time for talking is over, the time for thinking is now, and it will be loud...
and
Armando Rossi // Rhythm and Soul

Kakiseni: Hate the sin, love the singers? Theatre Listings and more
Hate the sin, love the singers? Are your favourite pop stars doomed to sizzle in hell? Or will Malaysia’s mighty morality scorch them like overdone satays before they even get there? Former Siasah editor Mustaqeem looks at the cellphone-busting phenomenon of Akademi Fantasia with its cohort of cute belters, and wonders: Why do we enthusiastically send so many SMS-es in support of the very ones we would also condemn to perdition?
Singers are not alone. Actors get no bloody respect too. Instant Café Theatre’s youngest member and Cameronian nominee, Ghafir Akbar, tells us about a new performance programme at Sunway College that will hopefully go a long way in changing society’s attitudes; and if not society’s, then at least his parents’. Aspiring young actors, feel free to print this article out and accidentally leave it on your family dining table.
In the face of so many challenges to our country’s faith – pop idols, ungrateful children, belligerent editors – National Laureate Noordin Hassan attempts to remind us of the Qur’an’s truth from the stage. Who better to understand his play Demi Zaitun than a reviewer named Zaiton (aka Toni Kasim)? Check out her ever incisive (but necessarily careful) review.
Meanwhile, Jerome Kugan comes out from hiding to talk to members of Five Arts Centre. They celebrate their 20th year in existence – a remarkable feat, considering their reliance on commercially unviable projects. Will their answers make more sense than their movement-intensive performances?
At the polls, we asked if you agree that Malaysian writers should write in the National Language. Interestingly, on the second day, the number of yes’s jumped suddenly to twice the number of no’s, as if someone with a point to prove was frantically clicking on the poll with all the computers within reach. At last count, however, 81 disagreed with the language criteria, 71 agreed, while 100 of you voted ‘depends’. Does this prove a point? It proves that people in this country think that numbers prove a point. If anything, it proves the question is badly phrased, as a very savvy poster pointed out in the feedback to Zedeck’s popular KL Lit Fest article. For the record, I think that a Malaysian writer is a writer who is Malaysian, no more, no less. May he or she be heard, read, and reprinted in every LRT train.
Some recommendations for the coming weeks:
Wish I Was There, new play written by Gavin Yap for The Actors Studio’s Malaysian Playwright Series, will run from Thu Sep 2 to Sun Sep 5. Though not exactly a sequel to his Dumb Waiter-like Sweet Nothing, the play stars Patrick Teoh and Gavin as two dead men whose souls are stuck in the basement of heaven. Sort of.
At the MPO, Joshua Bell, the prettiest violin player this side of the gender equation, will be in town to perform the Brahms’s Violin Concerto, as well as an evening of solo offerings.
And lastly, our glorious country will celebrate her 47th year of independence this Tue Aug 31. The party, complete with hell-bound entertainers (out to take the whole country along with them), will be held the night before at the Dataran Merdeka, as well as other liberated patches of grass in your respective states.
In an interview with Bernama, our former prime minister said regarding young Malaysians: “If we tell them that our country was once colonised, they probably wouldn’t have an inkling of what it’s all about. Hence, it is not easy to make them realise the importance of safeguarding the nation unless we relate to them continuously of the past years’ experiences.” He then suggested that we sing patriotic songs to safeguard ourselves against our former colonialists. You know, dude, it’s been 47 years. I do hope that at some point, the government will see fit to move beyond fear-instilling rhetorics and start encouraging people to be independent minded too. It’s about time.
In closing, I would like to quote a kindly mee-goreng cooking makcik I met at Chow Kit last year: “Kalau orang tu baik, dia tu bebas lah.” Happy Merdeka folks.

Julian Mokhtar & Friends @ Le Bernardin
Julian Mokhtar is a well-known name on the Malaysian music scene due to his 13-year stint as lead guitarist of the popular Malaysian blues/rock band Blues Gang. Julian and his friends' energetic mix of blues, rock, soul and reggae tunes drawn enthusiastic response from the audience at all their performances.
The strength of this band lies not only in the talent and musicianship of the individual members but also in the way they play together. Fast, slow, skin-tight or laid back, this band has a groove that few can match.
Sharing the spotlight with Julian's guitar work is Zarul on harmonica and occasional vocals, with suhaimi on drums and Julian's old Blues Gang bandmate Jim on bass as the rhythm section. At some gigs additional musicians, keyboardist Lord and percussionist John H, may join in.
Julian has released his solo debut album, "About Time". The CD is available online from cdbaby.com. Individual song downloads are also available from musiccanteen.com. Now you get to listen to them so up-close and personal in a 24-seat lounge.
