Impresario 2009

Wow! Its been some time I last post something here! Haha! Life has been... busy as usual. Life in my NS unit is as enjoyable as ever. And my superior helped me to defer my re-course BMT to a later date, THANKFULLY! Film Unit now is like my 2nd SCC, all the wonderful people inside...

Ok, enough of NS stuff already, haha! I have been in this compeition call Impresario 2009 Original Composition for quite some time already and got all the way to the finals. Thank God for that. And my song "Only Way" is the only English song that went into the Finals! I dunno whether that's a good thing or a bad thing judging to the fact that the music publisher for this competition is a chinese based industry publisher call Touch Music from Music Forest aka. Ocean Butterfly.

I was quite disappointed when Tiffany did not get into the Finals for the Vocal Solo category, cos I wanted to see her in the Finals with me, just like old times... But anyway, I have to thank her for spamming votes for me, LOL! Tiffany has LOTS of email accounts!!!

Anyway, back to the song writing competition topic. Yesterday, me and Tingren have a session with Hong Jun Yang and the head of Touch Music Publishing House to discuss on how to improve the song for the competition. I was like OMG! when I saw him in the room waiting for me. By the way, he look so much shorter than when he's on TV... LOL! and fatter too... I realised he's very used to chinese music arrangement. He even ask whether I can convert my this English song into Chinese version. LOL!

After some time of discusion, we went onto the topic of music recording techniques and the music market industries, and we went on and on and on without watching the time, leaving Tingren lost in space alone, i guess... Haha! It was an enjoyable chat la. Finally there's someone who like to discuss on the same topics that I like and can understand me!

After that, he brought me and Tingren to his office, which is a mini recording studio! And he also gave me his name card. He has moved on to be the creative executive of Touch Music, that's explain why he seldom produce albums recently. And he calls himself Alien Ang. LOL! Anyway, he will be the judge for my competition, so better not make fun of him anymore. =P

I was also told to attend an interview session on the radio on this thursday or friday 7pm on 100.3FM. OMG! I wonder how am I able to speak well in chinese over the radio!!! SO EMBARASSING!!!
