A Tale of 'Sekali Ini Saja Lagi'

2011-01-09T13:20:00.008+07:00

2010 - 2011 = keringat bercucuran

Well yeah, memang saya bukan ahli dalam membuat tulisan,tetapi apa yang saya coba hadirkan disini semata wayang hanya untuk melengkapi kisah yang akan kalian terus kenang sampai mati nanti, berlebihan? tentu tidak, were having so much fun last night dont we? hahaha.

Persiapan acara ini sudah dimulai sejak sore, dengan menata perangkat pengeras suara dan merakit tabung-tabung kayu berselaput yang konon keadaannya semi parah dan berumur puluhan tahun,membentang kain putih dan proyektor lcd, benar-benar perkembangan signifikan dari tahun sebelumnya, walau laptop ini harus mati-nyalasampai 20x-an. Stage set sederhana dan sedikit serius,2000an watt, siap untuk di hajar!

*Peraturan inti dari acara ini adalah: tidak ada rundown!, alias diundi ditempat, jadi semua band harus datang, tanpa ada toleransi, demi tanggungjawab dan disiplin.

Beberapa entitas luar rumah mulai berdatangan, menempati space yang ada, acara di mulai, undian berupa kertas di

gulung yang berisi nama-nama band yang berpartisipasidiambil, dan yang beruntung mendapatkan giliran main pertama adalah: Robot, mereka membuka acara ini dengan sangat manis, dengan sentuhan elektrobeat+gitar yang cukup membuat kita menunduk dan menggalau... Next, ada Sonar Soepratman, format single player ternyata cukup membuat penasaran audiens yang datang, berbekal keyboard, pianika, dan mesin tik, membawakan irama yang kelam dan klenik, dan cukup membuat kita semua resah saat menyanyikan genjer-genjer, tetapi untung tidak terjadi penggrebekan oleh pihak yang berwajib, puji syukur hal itu tak terjadi...Next, Pisau Nalar,nampaknya sudah banyak yang mengenalnya walaupun tergolong baru, sistem bermusik yang crusty fast punk, dan akhirnya menciptakan banger-pit perdana di acara ini,chaos! ...Dengan posisi yang masih penuh dengan kesempatan untuk banger dilanjutkan oleh Headcrusher, dan semuanya pun bergelinjangan berterbangan karena raungan trahs,doom,metal atau apalah itu , semakin panas, semakin intens...Lelah beradu badan dan keringat, cooling down sedikit dengan My Father Is John, membawakan tembang-tembang andalannya dengan rokenrol abis!, cooling down batal terlaksana, karena suasana tetap panas dan banger terus berlanjut...Lalu ada Helps, yang mendinginkan suasana, dengan output semacam british poprock mungkin,membawakan beberapa hits-hits yang tidak asing di telinga audiens, dan semua pun bernyanyi bersama...Wesley Westlight, merupakan pendatang baru juga, yang berisikan player-player yang tidak asing lagi,side project,post punk mungkin? well,tampaknya sang vokalis yang tampan hampir menguasai penampilan kali ini...Noise Good melanjutkan suasana crunchy yang ada, dan membawakan lagu-lagu andalan yang sounds like white stripes maybe,dan beberapa diantara mereka terlihat sangat menghayati karena pengaruh pengairan?...Karl And Rupecth Kronoen melanjutkan sesi tak sadarkan diri, tetap dengan suasana yang crunchy, salah satu personil mereka adalah personil dari band yang cukup ternama di telinga di kalangan remaja surabaya...tampak beberapa orang mulai kepanasan dan keluar dari venue,
namun Mooikite berhasil menarik mereka kembali, grunge and noisy, belel(kecuali gitaris yang satunya dan drummernya), membuat audiens berteriak-teriak kembali...kehadiran The Frontliner membuat suasana menjadi dingin, santai, dan sounds like The Strokes maybe? sang vokalis yang memang lihai dalam menggaet wanita? lupakan, audiens masih tetap bernyanyi bersama, bahkan gitaris dari noise good pun ikut mengisi part gitar...setelah grafik keringat menurun, Humanure membuat susasana menjadi panas kembali, grindcore yang padat, raungan distorsi, dan visualisasi orang unjuk rasa membuat kita semua saling ingin memukul, mosh pit yeah...dan tak terasa waktu sudah menunjukkan pukul 00:00, selamat datang 2011, dan penampilan terakhir di tutup oleh Egon Spengler, yeah dengan image rokenroll yang kuat, dengan sentuhan cartoon punk, zombie, atau apalah itu. Beberapa orang pun membuka atasannya, telanjang dada, mosh, keringat! well sudahlah, saya cukup lelah untuk menceritakannya!..beberapa audiens pun keluar dan membakar sate, selamat makan, selamat malam, sampai jumpa di waktu dan tempat yang mungkin kita takkan tahu bagaimana.

special thanks to:

-Talka buat Sound monitor set n power mixer serta laney guitar combo nya.

-Ricky buat HK head cabinetnya, membuat suasana lebih padat, serta beberapa peralatan drum seperti bangku, stand, n cymbal.

-Damis, buat kabel cabangnya, dan kekuatannya dalam mengatur posisi piranti pendukung.

-Pongge n Tebo, buat perangkat visualisasi macam kain, proyektor lcd, dan footage video sederhana tapi catchy, maaf laptopnya lama nyalanya.

-Yance untuk setting drum nya dan tenaganya.

-Yogie yang secara sukarela menjadi operator mixer.

-Ganis Krebo yang jauh-jauh dari jakarta untuk memberikan es buah secara cuma-cuma.

-Otis buat kembang apinya.

-Mr.Zaini yang ikut menjaga ketertiban.

-Mr.Unknown yang menjadi tukang parkir dadakan.

-Beberapa pihak yang membawa pengairan.

-Beberapa pihak yang mau meminjamkan jack n cable

-Semua yang sudah mau membantu menata dan membersihkan

-Semua yang sudah datang dan tidak mengeluh, bagi yang mengeluh, tak tantang buat bikin acara seperti ini aja yah?

regards.

LAST but not LEAST

2010-08-02T10:18:00.004+07:00

Yak, inilah gig terakhir kita sebelum bulan puasa. Setelah ini kita akan kembali ke studio untuk memantapkan materi untuk membuat kejutan. hohoho. Btw, gig ini benar-benar mantap!
Kami tampil sebagai pembuka acara. Dan, kondisi saat itu asyik sekali. Setelah sekitar 2 mingguan kita berkutat di kesibukan masing-masing dan bereksplorasi sana-sini, akhirnya kita bertemu kembali dengan teman-teman dan kembali memanaskan malam (yang akhir-akhir ini lebih dingin dari biasanya) di Surabaya.
Seperti biasa, kami membuka dengan lagu 'Between Room&Room.' Dilanjutkan dengan 'Agata.' Kemudian berlanjut dengan 'Los Muertos' yang benar-benar liar (diwarnai tendangan kung fu Cupu pada Ryan Ka). 'Windmill' menyusul dan ditutup dengan kepekatan 'Take Me Back to the Outer Space.'

Di M-150 Revolt: Grunge kemarin, juga menampilkan Freakin Noise, Monkey to Millionaire (yang perform asik sekali) dan Blingsatan. Royal Ego, band selingkuhan Eno 'Netral' yang dijadwalkan manggung akhirnya batal perform (mungkin) dikarenakan jadwalnya sebagai seleb yang tidak memungkinkan untuk main di partai gurem yang luar biasa seperti di Surabaya ini.

SEE YOU ON THE NEXT GIGS!

untuk apa kamu bermusik?

2010-06-28T08:32:00.004+07:00

Sebuah pertanyaan yang simpel tapi seringkali kita sulit untuk menjawabnya. Yah, kalimat ini saya temukan setelah menghadiri gig-gig yang banyak itu dan menonton banyak band yang asoi geboy. Seringkali ditemukan band yang mirip inilah, itulah... dan jastifikasi penonton tentang sebuah/beberapa band kalo mereka itu menjiplak.

Terlepas dari itu semua, sebenernya bukan masalah band itu menjiplak atau meniru atau bahkan hanya meng-cover lagu band lain. Kini semua itu kembali ke pertanyaan, "Untuk apa kamu bermusik?"

Misalkan saja, di kota saya ada band yang mirip banget dengan the Strokes, atau sebuah band yang mirip sekali dengan Arctic Monkeys atau mirip inilah, mirip itulah... sebenernya saya sama sekali tidak peduli tentang itu dan tetap mengapresiasi mereka dengan bertepuk tangan dan mendengarkan lagunya. Nah, sekarang, bagaimana jika dalam band itu sendiri mengatakan, "Aku gak sreg nih sama lagu kita. Udah gak feeling lagi." Nah, lo!

Kembali lagi, sebenernya untuk apa sih kita bermusik? pernyataan terakhir itu pernah muncul saat saya masih bergabung di sebuah band sebelum Mooikite dan dalam hati saya berkata, "Maaaan, come on... sudah berapa lama band ini berdiri? Kenapa kita gak bisa menghargai karya kita sendiri sedangkan kita ingin karya kita dihargai orang lain?" Yah, memang. Sejelek apapun karya kita, setidaknya kita menghargainya seperti kita menghargai pacar kita. Menurutku jika pernyataan itu muncul, sudah saatnya kita berkaca pada diri kita, UNTUK APA KITA BERMUSIK?

Sisi Jalanan

2010-05-05T08:25:00.000+07:00

Dari judul di atas mungkin semua langsung protes bahwa kami tidak seperti itu. Mungkin kalian benar. Kita sendiri memang merasa kehilangan sisi itu. Dimana kami biasa tabrak sana tabrak sini. Main hajar sembarangan. Tidak pikir panjang. Sampai, meng-ada-kan sesuatu yang hampir tak mungkin ada. Kami sadar, kami terlalu banyak berpikir. Terlalu banyak pertimbangan dalam melangkah. Yah, karna kami terdoktrin kata-kata orang tua di rumah ataupun kata-kata orang 'bijak' di TV. hahaha..

Yasudahlah... biarkan saja. Mungkin yang seperti itu tidak kami saja. Teman-teman dekat, kalian, presiden, menteri, ataupun siapapun pasti pernah seperti kami. Mengubah penampilan menjadi 'rapi' karena alasan 'kedewasaan.' Mengurangi jadwal manggung dengan alasan rekaman. Menghilangkan kebiasaan sarapan demi berangkat pagi-pagi. Yah, semuanya mungkin dilakukan karena sekeliling kita ter-dogma seperti itu.

Ah, lagi-lagi, ah. Dunia ini penuh alasan. Selalu saja ada alasan. Tidak bisa manggung gara-gara mengantar adik. Gara-gara anjingnya sakit. Ataupun gara-gara pacar minta jalan-jalan. hahahaha

Sekarang gimana enaknya? Yah, kalau kami, menilai kedewasaan bukan dari seberapa rapinya penampilan, bukan juga seberapa patuhnya kita pada orang tua, ataupun seberapa rajinnya kita pergi kuliah/sekolah. Menurut kami, kedewasaan itu adalah bagaimana konsistensi kita saat kita telah 'memilih.' Saat ini, kami memilih sisi jalanan kami. Dan, jangan dikira sisi jalanan itu buruk. Jangan berpikir sisi jalanan itu hanya main pukul, main hajar sembarangan. Tapi, sisi jalanan yang kita maksud adalah, bagaimana kita bisa agresif dan bertahan di situasi yang terburuk. Di situasi yang serba tak mungkin kita mengubah menjadi mungkin dan terjadi. Di situasi yang tak punya duit menjadi punya duit. Di situasi yang tak mungkin makan menjadi makan. Di situasi yang gak mungkin manggung menjadi ROCKIN'!!!

Yah, kembali ke jalanan...

SEE YOU ON THE NEXT GIGS!!!

From secret gig: SEKALI INI SAJA

2010-01-02T13:57:00.000+07:00

GREAT gig!!!
yeah, that's the word what we could say.
8 bands. full of euphoria!!
it's the best new year eve we ever had!
the gig was opened by MY FATHER IS JOHN. Keweh (the vocalist), put off his t-shirt and jeans. it made the audience falling into the great euphoria. then, EGON SPENGLER continued the scream. there're also SIBERIAN HUSKY, ROBOT, HUMANURE, and YOUNGMAN AND HISWORLD. also, freaky performance by DESKRIPSI SEBUAH MAHASISWA. it's really becoming a great night.

we, MOOIKITE, also closed the gig. yeah! there's no rundown. every performance was drawn. thus, we got the last turn.
However, even we're tired enough ('cause we all got in the moshpit and having fun), we gave our best to close the gig. we opened the closing with 'Between Room and Room' that had an indian ethnic melodies. next, 'Agata' burned the show. yeah, we're also dancing in funk-grunge beats in 'Los Muertos.'

'Time Circles' made the audience falling in gloomy feelings. and, 'Windmill' closed the show with its experimental voice.
after all performances over, Ryan Ka felt something's wrong with his body. yeah, he puke all he ate that night. what a disaster! hahaha :D

anyway, that was the greatest gig in 2009 we ever joined. yeah, it burned us to see 2010 with positive energy. thus, we need it. because, we'd like to finish our new EP in 2010. YEAH!!! WAIT FOR IT, PALS!!

SEE YOU ON THE NEXT GIGS!!!

Mafia Industri

2009-12-26T09:48:00.000+07:00

Festival, festival, festival. kadang juga bernama parade. sebagian anak muda atau temen2 yang lebih tua membuat band atau bahkan bersolo atau memakai alat elektronik untuk mengikuti acara-acara itu dan berharap bisa menang dan meraih popularitas dan terkenal. beberapa malah ingin masuk TV. ya, masuk TV. sebagian menganggap bahwa kesuksesan(ketenaran, kaya, harta melimpah) dari seorang musisi itu bisa diraih melalui acara2 itu. nah, itu bener. bener-bener SALAH.
Ya. kenapa salah? sebenernya tidak terlalu salah. sekarang ini sudah jarang sekali ditemukan orang-orang yang bermusik hanya karna musik (meskipun di daerah saya masih banyak yang seperti itu dan sekarang sudah mantab). seperti dalam sebuah artikel yang saya baca tentang seseorang yang bandnya akan diproduseri,

"Kalian musiknya seperti apa?" tanya sang produser.
"Terserah, bang. Yang penting bisa terkenal.." jawab sang musisi, eh, orang yang pengin terkenal.

jadi, musik yang kita liat di TV sekarang, 95% adalah musik pembodohan. tema yang selalu itu2 saja (baca:cinta). lagu yang iramanya juga itu2 saja. tapi, dengan bodohnya, banyak orang membeli kaset, bahkan memborong, hanya dengan alasan, "kan band terkenal mas.. masuk TV loh.. !!"

BUSYET!!!

Dengan keadaan seperti ini, dengan adanya pembodohan yang dilakukan media, kita sebagai konsumen yang tidak tahu (sekarang udah tahu kan?) selalu saja menjadi sasaran empuk si MAFIA INDUSTRI. memang, musisi butuh makan. manusia memang butuh makan. belum lagi kalimat bahwa kita kalau mau sukses harus ke Jakarta. bah! seperti doktrin aliran sesat yang makin menjamur. padahal, dengan banyaknya orang yang urban ke Jakarta, masyarakat asli Jakarta sendiri lama2 akan terganggu. terhimpit oleh 'modernisasi' jaman. indrustrialisasi yang omnivor. sebagian manusia Indonesia berbondong ke Jakarta. melupakan kampung halamannya. padahal banyak kota selain Jakarta yang bisa sukses. ada Yogyakarta, Bandung, Kuta, Batam dan lainnya. Jadi, kenapa harus ke Jakarta?
Berbicara seperti ini bukan berarti kami benci Jakarta. bukan berarti kami tidak menjual CD kami. kami hanya memberi wacana. sharing apa yang kami alami dan lihat. bukan untuk melarang teman2 ke Jakarta. hanya sharing. dan, semoga berguna bagi otak kita.

SALAM

TV bikin Bodoh

2009-09-23T14:56:00.000+07:00

Televisi memang bikin goblok a.k.a bodoh a.k.a stupid. Masih belum kebal masyarakat kita digempur tayangan-tayangan shitnetron dan infotaimen, eh.. sekarang malah muncul kartun malingsia a.k.a malaysia berupa Upin dan Ipin. Mau dibawa kemana generasi muda bangsa Indonesia ini?? Film animasi buatan anak negeri 'Meraih Mimpi' memang menjadi harapan tersendiri, namun tetap saja itu tidak cukup. karena penayangan hanya sebatas di bioskop yang saat masuk kita butuh beli tiket. bandingkan dengan nonton televisi yang bisa tiap hari dan GRATIS. kita memang tidak anti televisi. kita juga tidak menyarankan untuk menonton acara berita saja (karna berita dan dunia jurnalis itu juga sarat dengan manipulasi, seperti kasus Antasari itu--itu semua jebakan untuk memperlemah KPK). kita hanya menyarankan, biarkan televisi kalian mati... off.... selama mungkin. sebisa mungkin kita menghindari televisi. sebisa mungkin kita jauhkan generasi muda kita dari acara televisi. setidaknya kita terhindarkan brainstorming televisi. brainstorming yang dikenal sangat efektif.

Salam kita pada temen-temen di seluruh pelosok negri...
SELAMATKAN GENERASI KITA DARI INSTANISASI... !!!

SEE YOU ON THE NEXT SHOW!!

HAPPY LEBARAN DAY !!!

2009-09-13T03:27:00.000+07:00

but, we think nothing about it.
it's free for people to called our music.

HAPPY LEBARAN DAY guys!!!
we'll see you on the pit......

SEE U ON THE NEXT SHOWS

Our Drummer History

2009-08-21T21:30:00.000+07:00

yeah,, they're ones who have given beats in our songs..
they're all rock!!

Prehistoric Era : HUGO

he claimed himself as the next generation of Jose Pasillas II.
he'd been influenced by him and some of Lars' style. sometimes, he acted like Cobain in his daily life. but, in a momment, he'd lost himself and walked away from the band. he's still looked playing with his old band; Jabanero.

Progressive Era : MELO

Melo really excited to Mars Volta. also, he'd given more unpredicted beats in the songs. yeah, our songs sounded more progressive. but, he'd had many jobs in outer band. he didn't wanna be a permanent personnel. so, we couldn't count on him.

Experimental Era : GILANG

Gilang was a solo drummer before he joined us. the first impression when he played with us (in practice section) was HE ROCKS !!! he'd been influenced by Mr BIG style and some rock bands like Deep Purple and Metallica. he also liked a band from our hometown; Padi.
now, we're playing together in the big waves of the rockin' city; Surabaya and we make songs to kill stupidities. YEAH !!!

Mooikite Live

2009-08-15T10:18:00.000+07:00

we're gonna rock this show.
even there're many problems in this show.
come.. come.. guys!!
there are many bands from Surabaya, Sidoarjo, and Malang.

Brotherz Stairway Jam Session

2009-07-07T15:36:00.001+07:00

Yeah,, it was our warming up session before we get a show in Bali.
Placed at Musicalo Studio we rocked the room.

at 6pm the session should be started. But, because we (Gilang, Cupu, Ka) got lost,
the session started at 6.30. Yeah,, it was really dumped us. We're on the first one
who opened the session.

Unfortunately,, we played 'Agata' so bad on the first. But, we do understand because
we just played it three times. On the second chance, we played 'Morning View' and,, yeah.. it was burning us. And we played 'I'm Led by Alien' after it.

Guys, the amplifier Ka used was sucked. Man,, we prayed in our mind to get the mood.
It was really hard time. Our 'Environment of Quantum' was also dry. But, we're healed
by 'Windmill' because it really burned us. And, at last, we played 'Sorry' to close
our performance. Yeah,, it was perfect to close something (because of Ka was sceaming
in the last part of the song).

Guys, we felt we didn't play well in that night. But, we enjoyed it. We also could
watch our brothers; Start Me Up and Insomaniacs Conspire performed.
they're really cool. Yeah!! Keep rockin' brothers!

Start Me Up

Wawung "Insomaniacs Conspire"

Insomaniacs Conspire

Overall, that was an amazing night, guys! YEah, we hope we could finish our songs
before July 13 and record 'em.

From Road Show Distro Urat Nadi (Part.2)

2009-06-22T09:20:00.000+07:00

It's the 2nd show of us in Road Show Distro Urat Nadi.
The show had been placed at Backstreet Distro Rungkut-Surabaya.
It's different. We played in evening (about 5 pm).
It's also beeing an honor for us when we'd been instructed to play 4 songs.
Fortunately, we're ready for it. Yeah, because we just got a new drummer,
so we'd not done a lot of songs. But, Gilang was a freak!
He was really rock'd on!! YEAH!!

By the way,, in the break time, we joined a game. In that game, we had to move a
piece of paper and break it if it's been at the end of player. Freakly, we had to
move it by our own mouth. It's like we did kiss to each other. Yieks!! It's really freak!

SEE YOU ON THE NEXT SHOW(s)!!

Now, we're on three READY TO EXPLODE!!!

From Rockstar & Road Show: Distro Urat Nadi

2009-06-16T09:01:00.000+07:00

They were nice concept in the shows.
They were street gigs. We like it (even both been broken by Policemen).
We do the show with Gilang, our outstanding rockin' drummer.
We played "I'm Led by Alien" ; "Environment of Quantum" ; "Windmill" .

rockin' at Urat Nadi Disto Road Show!

She's the most valuable spectator in that night.

2009-06-07T09:17:00.000+07:00

On July, we’ve planned a show in Bali. We’ll go to Bali with our friends; Start Me Up and Insomniac Conspired. They’re two rockin’ bands. They’re awesome. We’ve got an honor to know them. Start Me Up with melodicabilly, Insomniac Conspired with their blues, and, we, Mooikite, with its own rock.

Now, we’re in charge to get some money to go Bali. We’ll do everything we can to earn money like collecting old lame outdated newspapers and sale ‘em. We’re also try to earn money by looking for any jobs. Hope we can do ‘em on time…

See you in Bali…

Happy Birthday Surabaya!!

2009-05-31T09:52:00.000+07:00

Our hometown Surabaya has birthday. It's on May 31. It's a big day.
Even Surabaya is the one of the hottest cities in Indonesia, we enjoy live in Surabaya.
We love Surabaya Zoo, We love the people, We love "JANCOK".
Yeah, Surabaya has a characteristic in its grammar; JANCOK.
So, Surabaya keep JANCOK!!

Hahaha

2009-05-31T09:36:00.000+07:00

That was what we did when we’re enjoying the day at home. In that picture, we tried to fix up what we’d wear on the show with our happy band’s project; Happy Hippies. Hahaha… maybe we’re not hippies enough. But, it’s very fun when we played music with Kahfi, Rombe, Keweh, and Kelly. Even the song was not completely done, it was a good show. Because, we love music so much whatever it was like. But, we won’t give any respect to musicians who making music just for money. We don’t hate ‘em. We just don’t want to make anyone become stupid when hearing music. So, Lestarikan Musik Pintar Indonesia!!

YEAH!!

We’re (still) looking for a drummer

2009-05-20T06:11:00.000+07:00

Because of our friend, Mello, could not take a part in our tours, we wrote this suggestion again. You, whoever you are, if you wanted to be our drummer, just call us, send message via sms, or meet us. We knew we’d been nothing. But, we’d been trying to be something. We need commitment…

Best regards,
Mooikite

We Enjoy It

2009-05-09T00:30:00.000+07:00

After Hugo’s WO, now we’re on two in charge. Even we have problems, that we can’t compose songs as much as fast as in the past, we do enjoy it. We enjoy composing songs with our drummer, even he is an additional player. The drummer gives a new color in our music. That is what we, Ka and Cupu, want. That is a condition that we want to realize long ago. We have been waiting so long for it. Now, we, Ka and Cupu and Mello, will get some tours outside Surabaya. Maybe it’s not like ‘the majors’ usually do. We’re just nothing now. But, we try to be something. Even we have to eat shits, even we have to be rubbish, and even we have to kill God (we almost do it! But, we’ll never try it again).

Also, we thank to all of our friends; Clubautis, Kuro, Alfan, Mas Joko, Jin Baskom, Ai, Manto, Rizal, Start Me Up, Railroad Runner, Keweh, Rombe, Smile Studio, Illegal Studio, Nyoman, Betsy, All people who have mocked us, and All people who know us, even we don’t know your name. Thanks! We proud of you!

'Oleh-oleh' from Gresik

2009-04-29T16:20:00.000+07:00

There was a long journey...
with our aged motorcycle, we're still rock!!
Hahaha
It was an outstanding experience.
We gave the audiences a shock.
We rock them with our songs...
We liked it.

*regards

Toure de Gresik

It was an amazing journey. We and “Kelly ‘n Weekend Project” and “My Father is John” and “Clubautis” were having a trip in Gresik. We all would have a show in Pensi Peace MAN 1 Gresik in Bungah.
We were struggling on our each motorcycle riding on the waving road and, of course, we felt pain on our asses. We were riding for miles and landing on MAN 1 Gresik first for greetings and went to Dalegan Beach to refresh our mind (even Dalegan to MAN 1 Gresik took an hour). We took a nap at Arif’s place (Arif is our friend, he’s clubautis). We were having supper in a place that sold ‘kikil’ noodle and ‘bakso kikil’. And, at 9.30 pm, we went to MAN 1 Gresik because we’d been scheduled a rehearsal at 5 am on Sunday.
We were sleeping at mushola of MAN 1 Gresik. All of us couldn’t sleep well. Ka was awaked at 1 am, Cupu just slept at 4 am, Mello at 6. In fact, because of the soundmen just been awaked at 7, all of band just finish the rehearsal at 9. And, of course, we all were tired. When we went back to Arif’s place, we tried to sleep as soon as possible because we had to go at 11 am. But, in fact, we just went at 1 pm (biasaa.. Indonesia…).

We came to MAN 1 Gresik at 2 pm and there were already full of people. We had a show at 3 pm and we shocked the audience. It was just because our songs were unusual to their ears. And also, we threw our guitar and bass on the stage in the end of our show. It satisfied us. We liked it.

At the end, we love our Gresik’s journey. It was an unforgettable journey. We’ll together (Ka, Cupu, Mello) with “Kelly ‘n Weekend Project” and “My Father is John” and “Clubautis” and also, our friends who live in Gresik. We love you, guys!

Efek TV Indonesia

2009-01-28T09:44:00.000+07:00

BAHAYA!
Dunia Musik Indonesia dalam bahaya!
Dengan banyaknya musik2 ber-genre sama yang terkenal dan muncul di TV, memberi efek negatif bagi insan awam.
MENGAPA?
Karena mereka akan cuma mengenal musik ber-genre itu2 saja.
MENGAPA BAHAYA?
Ya! dengan menjamurnya musik2 yang ber-genre sama, suatu saat orang akan bosan pada musik. Dan efeknya, tiap kita bikin gig, gig kita akan semakin sepi dan bahkan tanpa pengunjung. Pada akhirnya, matilah kreatifitas musik Indinesia.
CONTOH KASUS:
seorang pelajar mengetahui sebuah pensi, tapi saat ditanya: dateng gak? jawabannya: "gak ah.paling musiknya itu2 juga."
AYO TEMAN2 KITA RAMAIKAN MUSIK INDONESIA!!!
JANGAN BIARKAN PARA INVESTOR ASING (MAJOR LABEL) MEMBODOHI KITA!!!

Mooikite's Drummer Out

2008-11-04T15:15:00.000+07:00

This event is cool..
But, there is something that can make Surabaya lag behind.
Yes, it's about some audience who claimed they are 'underground'.
'Underground' is not a kind of music, right?
It's a move. It's a move that full of idealism.
But, some of the audience didn't know about it.
Some musicians too.
As a hope, we wanna realize a Big Music Surabaya.
By being proud of our music. By being proud all kinds of music. Music is just Music.
Say fuck to the word called genre!!!

terdiri dari tiga anak muda (tadinya, sekarang tinggal dua) yang prihatin terhadap musikalitas dalam dunia populer Indonesia yang hanya menuangkan racun bernama 'lirik cinta' yang terlalu mendayu-dayu, merusak moral, dan membentuk mental cengeng pada generasi muda Indonesia.
Disertai gelora semangat yang sangat muda, kami menuangkan segala keprihatinan dalam musik kami.
