We have been Waiting For That Day. The brand new WVC TRiO +1 album, official launch. With Music, Photos, Stories and Movie Clips. Joining us are Tan Choo Harn, Wong Horngyih, Alex Ls Tan, who went through the album making process together with us.
After 31 days, 50,000kms traveled, 17 cities and 23 performances/talks. We survived sicknesses, fatigues, long hour of tiring walks, lost in unfamiliar cities, cheap hotels, dangerous driving, exhausting eating, audience indifference, incompetent soundmen, equipment problems, overwhelming responses, heavy burden carrying of CDs, inhumane weather and humid condition, unidentified food items, excessive snoring from bunkmates, air pollution, face numbing chilli, smelly tofus, great friendships, enthusiastic students, enlightening conversations, occasional pretty ladies (speak for yourself the three bachelors in the group, definitely not from us two married and faithful men), great music, internet iron curtain, unstandable body odors, intermittent appearances of the green hulk who didn't get his vegetarian food served right, enjoyment of the company of old friends and discoveries of the new ones, death inducing drinking games, absence of good caffeine, obscene pseudo cultural locations, overwhelming human presence, long queues that is not a straight line, etc etc etc etc etc.
It has been awhile I haven't been writing any instrumental compositions, in comparison to year 2010. But towards to end of 2012, the sketches that I have been keeping in the past two years came to fruition. I managed to complete four new compositions in a week's time (but just like making babies, you usually wait months for it to complete itself in the dark, and then voila, suddenly it popped out).
Here is one of the compositions:
Waiting For That Day:
What Is This Feeling:
The Moon & the City Light:
Goodbye One Town:
Maybe you have got tired of this, but this is another version of
The Art of the Wind Up Alarm Clock:
