Talk about D.I.Y with Radio 1003 DJ Ken, 17 Oct 2008, 10:30pm

YET introduces Instrumentalist Tera

Ken & YET

Tera and Ken

The TRIO ...

Ken is such a happy boy. His program is so fun and he makes us realise that we are afterall HAPPY people. So be like Ken, everything can. Ha ...

Since the release of "No Problem" CD Single, Ken has been very supportive. And with the release of debut album "Crazy Yet", he invited me to his program to share about being D.I.Y in Singapore. That night, I also pulled along my music partner, Tera. Tera is a young boy who not only does pop writing, but also into instrumental music and game...ing music. He is a songwriter, arranger and producer. Currently, he has 2 instrumental album under his name. I felt strongly that local audience should be given more opportunity to be exposed to this little group of D.I.Y musicians and so, I got permission from Ken and brought him along.

Yoz Ken, Tera is "terror" right? Ha ...

I love performing at heartland. It is so close to heart and it is just me. I'm not a superstar and I'm just any other ordinary people but trying to sing a song on your behalf.

the queue ...

He is one other GREAT friend I have known through music. Capital Radio FM95.8 DJ Jiabiao. Thanks Bro from being so crazy with me throughout the performance and autograph.

Yes, though it was not a sardine-packed performance/autograph session, a humble turnout of 30 persons were considered positive (at least my personal opinion) for a D.I.Y performance/autograph at an open plaza. The DJ and myself have had fun jumping off the stage onto the ground level to bring the performance closer to the audience. At least this is something not common in a superstar autograph (Heee ...), and we did it. I really thank everyone for keeping up the energy and stayed with me for the 1 hr long session. See you in Nov and Dec for more action.

<<那个疯狂的人>>全新华语大碟的制作过程

05/10/2008 (11pm - 12mn)电台1003"Sunday-11"DJ珂宁与独立音乐创作狂人YET叶敦鸿畅谈<<那个疯狂的人>>全新华语大碟的制作过程

People said I'm really Crazy Yet. Spending 50K on an album and knowing that the market is not readily available. Yes, 50k may be a lot, it can buy me a reasonably good car, it can be used to pay for downpayment of a condo, it can be used for investment, it can be at least saved for rainy days, or at least make my days better ... yah I know ... thanks for reminding. Actually, I do feel heartache ... haaa !!!

But I think there is one good advice that I never going to forget ... how many people would have a chance and dare to accomplish their dream in this LIFE they are living. The value of 50k increases if it is used more meaningfully and purposefully. So it's worth it.

Money should not be used as an excuse for not being able to accomplish task though it really plays an important part. Howver, the process has let me understand that my attitude in working things out is more important.

Friends out there who have stood by me and lent me a hand in this project, whether or not we have conflicts or different agenda throughout the process, I still want to thank all of you for being part of everything. All of you are part of my growing experience. Do continue to pursue your dreams within your means and best of luck to everyone. Any thing that I could be of help, do let me know.

Cheers.

音乐和自己的正业---社工

30/09/2008 (10pm - 11pm)Capital Radio 958 "月光宝盒"DJ潘家镳与独立音乐创作狂人YET叶敦鸿畅谈<<音乐和自己的正业---社工>>

... the contents below are my 2 cents of worth of thoughts ... it doesn't represent any party but only myself as a resident in Singapore who is concerned about the well-being of the children and youths nowadays.

Music and Work, I insist not to mix them up. However, Music and Work, mixes in reality. Similarly, there ain't a clear line between anything even though if we insist. Because the so called clear line is a result of human intervention. No one can be so clear, even about themselves. The only clear line is actually all about yourself, to bluntly put ... self-ish. A "self" is made up of experiences. And decision is made based on experiences. So, whoever got a louder say, draws the line. But is it objective or subjective? My Music and My Work depend on My Experience ... My Music and My Work are subjective... yes I heed advices here and there ... but I only take what my experiences told me work for me. So is it ob or sub?

The new generation of children and youths are trapped with all sorts of LINES. Clear or Unclear, Objective or Subjective ... I guess the most important thing for them nowadays is CONVENIENCE. This is when LINES turn in LIES so easily, where you find the letter N of a COMPASS is missing. Children and Youths lose direction in a society where there are so many lines set up to provide them with a structure to arrive at a destination. Maybe the system should not base their experience to enforce it on the new generation but to return the COMPASS and let them discover for themselves their real "self".

Whether this entry makes sense or not, it's objective and subjective. But at least I speak up. Imagine how many children and youths have chosen to shut up due to the lines? They should have a voice, not a represented self-ish voice ...

RadioS --- I've heard U !!! 10q !!!

请准许我此刻5分钟的骄傲。人在谦虚之时，也得在适当的时候为自己的刻苦耐劳赞一赞自己，为自己骄傲一下。这样一来，接下来的路，才会走的更有劲，走的更有意义。

如果每一步骤都活得过渡谦虚，都活在他人眼光里，连开心都害怕人家说骄傲，把谦虚当成是掩饰自己真性情的工具，这样的生活最终会熬出病来。因为自己的情感被自己压抑着，不病都难。
所以何不活开来，活得大方一点。不是叫你骄傲到目中无人，而是为自己的脉搏注入一股能够为自己所为而骄傲的气息，给自己多一份信心去迎接全新的挑战。

我骄傲的是我的努力，我的精力，我的体力，我的耐力，我的战斗力，我的毅力，我爱吃的巧克力(哈!!!) 。。。

我骄傲的是我看见了自己的信心，人生观和处世态度。

这张专辑让我看见了许多生命中的不完美其实是完美的一部分。

大家给我的支持和鼓励，有时还真教人难以承担 --- 因为我不完美。

不过就是因为有你们的这份心意，我会鞭策自己积极努力把路子给走好。

感谢:

i-Weekly No.570 - 20 Oct 2008

Was negotiating a deal with a friend's CD Shop, New Millenium Music Pte Ltd at Pearl's Center, Chinatown. When showed him the CD, he was like ...,"Oh, I've seen it on magazine." I was like ...,"Huh ... where?" He then started to look through his newspapers and magazine ... and there in i-Weekly was the review.

Thank you Huizhen for the review. Thanks.
