Neon Lights Festival, another new major music & art festival is back in Singapore just in days count. The first of its kind in Singapore, and taking its cues from the world’s greatest music festivals, Neon Lights will illuminate the historic Fort Canning Park on Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th November with a rich and vibrant music and arts programme encompassing international and local music, dance, theatre, comedy, art & design installations, spoken word and children’s workshops.

Built on an uncompromising philosophy of collaboration and community, the inaugural annual festival will run from 1pm till late each day, and will incorporate every nook and cranny of Fort Canning’s three main outdoor event spaces – Fort Green, Fort Gate and OMSQ. Neon Lights promises a premium multi-disciplinary, multi-sensory experience for everyone, regardless of age or interest, set across six stages – Neon Lights Stage, Neon Gardens Stage, Club Minky, Cloud Factory, Lit Up @ Neon Lights and Easy Street.

The first 16 acts of a superbly eclectic music line-up are released today. Handpicked from over 10 countries across 5 continents; Neon Lights’ headliners are the legendary hit-makers USA’s CHIC feat Nile Rodgers – one of the most influential producers and prolific musicians in the history of popular music – and multi-platinum-selling singer-songwriter Ireland’s Damien Rice who will play his first Singapore show in nearly a decade.

Brilliant cult mavericks USA’s Mercury Rev make their long-awaited return to Singapore right off the release of their latest album and upbeat party acts Flight Facilities from Sydney and New Yorkers Ratatat will play their first-ever shows here.

Other acts making their first trips to Singapore include legendary UK shoegaze trailblazers Ride, the hypnotic Songhoy Blues from Mali, Mancunian world-fusion DJ Mr Scruff and the Asia premiere of Kiasmos – the groundbreaking new audiovisual electronic project from Iceland composer and pianist Olafur Arnalds; who needs no introduction to Singapore audiences – his last trip here in 2013 saw him sell out two nights at the Esplanade Theatre. Kiasmos’ show will be preceded by Swedish techno demi-god Axel Willner aka The Field.

The Neon Lights and Neon Gardens stages will showcase a stellar music line-up spanning genres and decades, blending international stars with local heroes, including sensory rockers Hanging Up The Moon. Also on the Neon Lights bill so far are cool punk-meets-bossa-lounge act Nouvelle Vague from Paris, gifted Japanese multi-intstrumentalist Shugo Tokumaru, introspective indie folksters USA’s Sun Kil Moon and Singapore’s Bennett Bay, and the new queen of dream pop USA’s Julia Holter.

Families with kids will be entertained by the interactive sideshow, circus, comedy and cabaret performances at Club Minky, followed by children’s wearable art and movement workshops by MySuperFuture at Cloud Factory. For fans of the spoken and written word, Lit Up @ Neon will be a literary treat with performances, readings, panel discussions and interviews.

The holistic festival will feature three distinct performances each night at Cloud Factory by some of Singapore’s most innovative sound, video and performance artists, all curated by Noor Effendy Ibrahim, former artistic director of The Substation and Teater Ekamatra. Also, attendees will get to participate in a live street art and culture celebration on Easy Street curated by Recognize Studios and Sideshow, alongside the breakbeats of hip-hop artists and scratch DJs.

Last weekend, thousands music fans once again congregated at The Meadow at Gardens By The Bay for St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival – Singapore edition, which become annual year festival. And for their fifth year’s edition they brought sets from Chet Faker, Pond, Mac Demarco, Jon Hopkins, Angus & Julia Stone, Courtney Barnett, Jungle, FKA Twigs, Little Dragon, Banks, Future Islands and many more.

But it seems like it’s not only for the sake of music only this festival was meant to be, but also for commercial entertainment to show Australia’s summer music festival vibe feels like. Combining the old and new Laneway’s alumnus, we can expect new generation of so called music lovers and festival goers gather together experiencing whats new and what have they missed from previous festivals. With three stages which divided based on either different genres or target market, crowd are force to choose between the acts they knew more and new acts they have never heard before. Another unfortunate but understandable thing also happens when the rain started to poured down just not long after the festival get started, the humidity is just unbearable to see especially for all hipster’s outfits who came not only for the music but for the scene.

Started the festival by English post-punk band Eagulls, rocking the main stages of Laneway with fun yet angry sounds made the punk lovers bopping along to their tunes. Continued by Perth psychedelic band Pond, crowd can enjoy the modern age of rock and roll with an Australian twist. With the distortion of the guitar, heavy drums, swaying vocals and groovy Australian attitude. And that marks the start of the festival.

Another fun sets came from the witty solo singer – songwriter Mac DeMarco and his band. The Canadian-native Mac DeMarco attracted the largest afternoon crowd at Laneway, with his jizz jazz laid-back music. Whilst he fixed up some technical issues, his band mate covered Yellow with some karaoke style goofiness. And as usual, Mac ended his performance by crowd surfing over the soaking wet crowd.

Talking about women’s day not long after the festival, we can see that there are long list of female performance for this year’s festival. Starting with Melbourne, singer-songwriter and guitarist Courtney Barnett, her performance is just as sweet and sly as her music style. Playing songs from her EPs, we can pretty much enjoy what she had brought to festivals such as Glastonbury, Lollapalooza and Coachella.

We also experienced another awesome rock band from duo Royal Blood that afternoon. With the guitar-like bass and drums rippled among the crowds, we definitely thank the promoter for not being too mainstream.

Angus & Julia Stone, the formidable brother-sister duo, hailing from Sydney, which also another top act who have performed at a large-scale event bring their heartbreakingly beautiful lyrics and honey-like harmonies is just nice to company couples that afternoon. Follow by local Singapore acts .gif and Hanging Up The Moon, with their folk acoustic tune which suits the timing for the crowd to have a break for food or just chilling before the sun goes down.

After the sun goes down, the party started up. As expected with big crowd, London’s tropical mambo jambo percussion rhythms band Jungle, serving up without doubt the funkiest set of the day, just nice to start the weekend night. Continued with some other girl power such FKA Twigs, and Swedish band Little Dragon, and followed by Banks, whose electronic efforts were almost wasted on a crowd that was running for cover. As expected with bigger crowds, they are as impressive as what electronic with lots of sound effect could offer. Name that we couldn’t missed was Chet Faker, man who was once a faceless musician with a powerful voice, and became the best of what electronic soul has to offer. After collaborations with the likes of Flume and his hit remixes of songs like Trembling Hands by Australian band and previous Laneway Festival Headliner’s, his live performance is one of the too bad to be missed that time.

Probably things they need to take notes of next time when they want to do such festival in Singapore, are consideration of what exactly the target audiences wanted to enjoy, and again when it comes to after party. We think if they still wanted to held such festival in one of the cleanest place on earth, maybe they can hire some volunteer to do it or just simply not having too much waste cause commercial booth – you know, it’s supposed to be simple raw music festival for music lovers not farmer’s market with lots of unnecessary pop up booths. So lets see what they can bring next year, will the festival be more commercial or they can introduce us to more of music options like what they will do in SXSW. (Photos : Michael Reily)

The Big Pink are Robertson “Robbie” Furze and Vicky Jean Smith (and formerly of Milo Cordell), two electronic rock duo from London and signed to no other than the independent record label 4AD. With five singles and two full length album A Brief History of Love (2009) and Future This (2012), this British band is ready to rock Asia on March 15th 2014 in Singapore. So we asked Robbie a little about their future records and catch a bit of whats left from their last updates before seeing them live next month.

London is a big place for all music genres to live. Why do you choose electronic rock as your main sounds?
We didn’t really choose any sort of sound it just can you sounding like that.

If you could collaborate with one of the artist in Mosaic, who would you choose to work with? And if you are to pick one song that is totally opposite from the music of The Big Pink to perform at the festival, what would it be?
I don’t really know any of the other bands playing at mosaic but I’m excited to listen to some new music. Light Asylum Shallow Tear - I love this song and would love to cover it and will one day.

Tell us about the upcoming album that you are working on. How does it sound? And is the process working on the new album similar to the last two?
It is the most honest music I have ever made. I have fallen into a creative love affair with a producer called dave mc craken he produced ian brown solo records. I hated the recording process of the second record and I love this process.

So, you’re in New York and working with some cool indie acts such as The Drums, Andrew Wyatt and Supreme Cuts, so tell us more about this. Will producing be your main project or it’s just a side project to distract yourself?
I actually haven’t worked with the drums they are called the drum totally different. some of the sessions will be used on the record and ill use for other stuff. andrew wyatt is one of the most amazing artist i have ever worked with.

Do you enjoy making music in a studio or doing live performance?
You got to have a mix of both, x

Carb On Carb is Nicole and James who met a few years ago in 2009 along with their friend’s Giles Thompson in Wellington band called Mammal Airlines. Not long after Mammal Airlines went on hiatus, Nicole and James decided to carry on playing together as Carb on Carb’s, which influenced by popular culture from three different ages and generations artists.

We saw them performed live last weekend as the opener for Mac DeMarco at Home Club, Singapore so we decided to dig more about the band and their Asian touring.

Tell us a little bit about the history of the band- how Nicole and James decided to make music through something called Carb on Carb?
We used to play together in a band called Mammal Airlines where I (Nicole) played drums and james played guitar along with our friend Giles who also played guitar. I joined by lying that I could play the drums when I hardly knew the guys at a festival. After that band was put on hold, we decided to form a two piece and swap instruments. I had music I had written after my high school band broke up sitting around so we tried some of those songs first. We’ve been playing as carb on carb for around 2 years now!

As a new young band, what do you think about music nowadays back home? and what influence you the most when making music?
We are really lucky to have come from New Zealand, even though its a very small country, the music scene is amazing and very supportive of young musicians. James and I have both been playing in bands since we were 14 and have been very lucky to play with some of our favourite bands from New Zealand. The people we meet and the bands we get to play with really influence our music. We learn a lot from our friends in bands and share music through them, resulting in a communal music scene. We like to tour a lot so we are constantly being exposed to different bands from around the world and meeting new people who always have something different to offer for inspiration!

Have you ever counter strange situation / crowds / environment while on tour?
The China tour was a big culture change to New Zealand, at one of our shows a group of very drunk men kept heckling us in Mandarin and coming onto the stage taking the mic from us which was really confusing and hilarious, they looked like the mafia so we tried to be as friendly as possible…

After your Eps (Ladies Mile and No Body Perfect) have you decide when are you going to make studio album?
We plan to write and record a new album next year but will probably do it DIY, as with our eps we record most of it at home and mix and master it ourselves.

Stay tune to hear the next Mxitape Monday made by them next week!

It’s been weeks since we saw Efterklang live at Urbanscapes, and we hope you still don’t have that post-fest depression till now. But if you do, we are here to help you to relax with our monday’s mixtape made by the very own Casper Clausen of Efterklang. In Danish “Hygge” is closely related to “coziness” or time when you just chilling with good friends or loved ones, hope you can enjoy it as much as we do!

Track listing:

1. Bill Callahan – Small Plane
2. Anna Von Hausswolff – Goodbye
3. Dead Can Dance – Children Of The Sun

5. Einsturzende Neubauten – Alles (Ein Stück im alten Stil)

So finally after a while in Singapore, we’ve decided to dig deeper to this country’s very own music scene and thanks to our gig friends, we found out about Obedient Wives Club or in short OWC. The band started making music since couple years ago, when Keith - the guitarist of OWC, decided to put something that’s lack in Singapore’s music industry. So keep scrolling down our page to get to know this band we saw first time live at Urbanscapes festival.

Please tell us a bit about the history of Obedient Wives Club?

YinQi: Keith had an idea for a fuzzy band with girl group vocals back in 2011 and he set out to recruit the various members. All of us are personal friends of his before the band, except Cherie who was introduced to Keith later and joined us only in early 2012.

Indie music in Singapore is much more being appreciate nowadays, I see lots of indie bands touring there, music festivals, and also Singaporean bands making their way on the industry, so what’s your opinion about it? Is it really like that? How is the indie music (or music in general) industry in Singapore according to your view?

Keith: Lots of people listening and no one is playing. Actually I don’t know if people even listen to the music. Attending festivals seem like the fashionable thing. A recent festival had a much better lineup than something coming up in January, but the one in January has become a brand name and people just attend it to be seen.

YinQi: I think there’s definitely a growing demand for indie music among the younger crowd. Of course, “indie” is all subjective as the internet makes discovery of bands easier, and technology allows just about anyone to make music from their bedroom. Personally, I see a healthy drive in the local music industry, regardless of the genre and standard of the music, but better to have many people trying to make music than sitting around waiting for that one good band to drop!

What is your best gig experience? And what do you think having the same stage as Franz Ferdinand later on at Urbanscape?

Keith: Best gig attended – Pearl Jam 1995. Played – Beach Fossils support slot. The crowd was extremely close to us. Haven’t listened to Franz Ferdinand since 2005 so I most probably won’t know half the songs they’ll be playing.

Y: Recent best gig experience has to be our Singapore Night Festival show in August! We had ample time and organizer support so we actually had backing vocalists and live violinists accompanying us. Very cool. I’m trying not to think too much about sharing the same stage as Franz Ferdinand. Probably as the lead vocalist, I will just do some research to see how he and other big bands make use of the huge stage space and improve on presence!

Lastly, we’re making playlist every week from different bands, would you mind to make one playlist that consist of 10 of your favorite songs?

K: Gallant’s “Manhattan” and Rhye’s “Open” ‘coz they are both make-out/sex music!

Y: Since I’m still on my high from Camp Symmetry, I will give some love to my Danish dudes Mew and their epic “Comforting Sounds.” The song is back on my iPod after a long hiatus and still sounds as good 10 years after it was released. Another tune that I still love, even after 10 years too, is Death Cab for Cutie’s “A Lack of Color”. There’s just something very lulling about the opening guitar notes that makes me want to close my eyes and let the notes wash over me.

Lennat: “Love Is To Die” by Warpaint – Stella’s drum parts are beautifully intricate. I’m sold within the first 10 seconds of the song; “Strife” by Savages – Dystopian Post-punk that gives me chills every single time.

Sulaiman: “Set It Right” by How To Dress Well – it’s about coming to terms with losing someone; “Løb Stop Stå” by Boom Clap Bachelors – it reminds of a road trip with a loved one.

Cherie: “Porcelain” by Snowbird – it’s Cocteau Twins’s new band, ’nuff said; “40 Days” by Slowdive – it’s my current heartbreak song.

Listen up to the mixtape we named “Journey of The Past Future” (A Mixtape by OWC)

Journey of the Past Future (A Mixtape by Obedient Wives Club) by Svanamix on Mixcloud

After our ‘indie’ weekend early this month in Singapore for Camp Symmetry, we headed to the neighbor Malaysia with even bigger festival which combined art and music in MAEPS with big line ups such as Tegan & Sara, Franz Ferdinand, Efterklang, Sore, Obedient Wives Club, and much more.. too bad due to Alex Trimble’s of Two Door Cinema Club all their show in Asia had to be canceled. But anyway we met lots of friendly people and cool art stuff around, and for you who didn’t get the chance to get there, here’s our review of the fest so maybe you want to plan ahead for the next year!

How we get there? We went there by bus from Singapore, yes you read it right, 5 hours bus to Perhentian Serdang and a cab to the festival. Rain and sun can’t stop us from seeing what’s Urbanscapes all about. The venue itself was gigantic, maybe since it was actually Malaysian agricultural place, and the crowd was about the same as Singaporean festival goers or even more vary, since it was music and art festival. Many food stalls (so you won’t get hungry), exciting artwork and fancy pop up market.

How’s the first day? We were prepared with raincoats, boots and stuff, but the only thing we used that day was sunblock. Even though it was raining pretty heavy in Singapore, it was sunny like hell in Serdang. We arrived when Sore was playing at the Urbanscape stage, performing their hits as smoothly as usual. After that we scrolled the venue and couldn’t be more proud to see our bands performs and some friend’s art works exhibited there. Back to the main stage we saw Oh Chentaku perform, which was great indeed. Band that famous with their ‘Sing It Rock and Roll’ song, succeed brought the crowds to paid attention till their very last song.

We also went to the Next Stage where we witness some of the most random performance mixed by rapper and local ghost after. Its a bit surreal and funny at the same time. We dont have much time as we are heading to see another Indonesian act at Upfront stage, which is one of the line ups we didn’t expected to be amazed by. The Experience Brother, Daud and Ibrahim, proved once again that rock and roll are still alive. With songs taken from their Eye Contact album, the band succeed mixing Zeppelin’s rock and roll style with the spontaneous quirky only Indonesian can do it well, not to mention when they performed ‘She’s Alright’ which made the crowd couldn’t help but to sing a long.

Right after them, it was the Aussie’s very own next big thing, Last Dinosaurs. We’ve seen them several times already just in a year and yet they are still fun to watch. And apparently, they have huge fans here in Malaysia! Lots of teens, boys and girls, local and regional flew to Malaysia just to see this band. Performed the same set list as in Jakarta and Singapore, the band still being asked to do encore. Well, we hope that will encourage and inspire them to make more music for the next album.

And the headline of the night was Tegan & Sara. Even though we’ve seen them in Jakarta before, duo that known first time as ultimate commercial songs (well, I knew them from an advertisement) still had the thing to ‘heart-rob’ the crowds. Playing their hits such as ‘Alligator’ ,‘Back in Your Head’, ‘I Was A Fool’ to ‘Closer’ the crowd couldn’t be any happier than sing a long for more than an hour.

How’s the second day? On the second day we’re mostly chilling with our friends and people we met at the festival, talk with the artists around and enjoying ourselves by the cool vintage lo-fi performance by Obedient Wives Club. Group that has been recognize not as the female muslim group, but a group that consist of Singapore very own Keith Tan, YinQi, Sulaiman Supian, Lennat Mak and Cherie Ko, played songs from their EP ‘Murder Kill Baby’ and captured the crowds of lo-fi spectorgaze fans.

Beside OWC, we also ran to another stage where -another 4AD acts, Efterklang, performs. After our interview with Casper, we couldn’t be more surprised when Mads used ‘Angklung’ we gave for the intro of Hollow Mountain, followed by Casper and Rasmus on stage and that’s when all the magic of sounds happens! I mean really, they literarily used everything, from normal instruments, to ipad apps, to stage’s pillar like those Berlin Blue Man Group with less disco vibe. Despite of the heat outside combine with people inside the tent, this Danish band amazed the crowd with their electronic wave sounds. My worried about either the crowd were already melt by the heat or were there because of the music has been answered, when they forced to ‘pause’ their performance due to afternoon break, the crowd still remind the same. Ended by their hits Modern Drift, this band is definitely one of the band you must listen to if you are fans of Sin Fang, múm, and other Scandinavian experimental electronic music.

Right after Efterklang, we went to the highlight (or mine) of the festival seeing Franz Ferdinand! Even though I wasn’t a big fan, I couldn’t help but to sing a long and dance to their song. They performance were just addictive and let’s face it, no one could possibly stand still watching their energetic act. These Scottish ‘uncle’ brought all their hits to the table from Bullet, The Dark Of The Matinée, No You Girls, Tell Her Tonight, Evil Eye, Do You Want To, Walk Away, Horizon, CSF, Fallen, Jacqueline, Michael, Take Me Out, Love Illumination, This Fire, to Ulysses and not to mention their encore with Right Action, to Outsider. I think it has been a long time since I sang very loud and dance very passionately in a show.

As the technician packing the instruments, crowds went home, so it’s time for us to get back to reality. We took the last bus to the city center and grab the first bus to catch our flight home. Lets hope to see some more exciting line ups with less animal cause itchiness next year, and don’t forget to catch Urbanscapes’s final Satellite show featuring Canadian indie-rock giants Metric this December 3rd 2013.
