DECEMBER 8: Lucky Sake Club with Lionel Rizki and Pradana
Pop by Lucky Tora for a quick drink and recharge your luck before you head out while grooving to the sound of Japanese citypop, shibuya-kei and the likes served to you by Lionel Rizki and Pradana. Had a tough week? Fret not, it's your lucky night because every purchase of beer comes with a free sake shot. Who knows, you might just end up staying. Or perhaps meet someone new? Come try your luck or you'll never find out!
Lionel Rizki has always been immersed into the local music scene, starting out as a roadie, a music photographer, a VJ and now a DJ! As a selector, his favoured sound is a range of disco and electronic sounds with groovy beats, horns and synths from the late 70s that’s guaranteed to get the dance floor down to boogie. As a Japanophile , audiences are often treated to the odd city pop single, Shibuya kei track and event themes from recent Nippon productions. Expect Indonesian disco to be included into his selections inspired by his recent rediscovery of his hometown. He is also the head of Marketing and PR for SaturdaySelects, a collective, platform and record label that consists of creatives & musicians from around the world and a member of Public School, focusing on leftfield music which are deemed unacceptable to be played at clubs.
Previously known as f-dot and later known as Skware-1 (2006-2009), Pradana is no stranger to the scene. The Indonesian national found Kuala Lumpur (Melawati to be precise) as his home after moving here at the age of 1. He is affiliated with numerous collectives such as Raising The Bar, HOAX and was previously a part of Rogue Squadron. Pradana has gone through numerous style changes, from playing footwork, juke and grime (he was called the “King of Grime” by Tubby of Budculture), the man is also known for his Japaneezy aesthetics which revolves around shibuya-kei’s chaotic features and the peaceful harmony of city pop.
