FEBRUARY 3 : Music Is Love at Bait Intermark
Saturdays at Bait Intermark on Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur sees the Da Funkie Junkie curated Music is Love nights with Da Funkie Junkie and Kubika on resident music duties.
The music policy for the night, in terms of vibe and ambience, is to capture the spirit, essence and music integrity of legendary clubs and nights like “Paradise Garage”, “Body & Soul”, “The Loft”, “The Shelter” and “Cielo” in New York; “The Warehouse” and “Music Box” in Chicago, and more contemporary clubs like “Respect Is Burning” and “Secret” in Paris; the early days of “Ministry of Sound” and the funk and cheekiness of “Scaramanga” in London.
According to Da Funkie Junkie, aka Donovan Tho, the focus is to capture and innovate, but not duplicate.
The musical ethos is inspired by legendary DJs Larry Levan and David Mancuso and their modern incarnations, Dimitri from Paris, Joey Negro and Danny Krivit.
The early hours will provide customers with an opportunity to discover the “roots” of dance music i.e. soul, funk, jazz, disco and Afro-latin beats. The latter stages of the night will build towards current and classic deep soulful house, disco house and garage.
As Bait Intermark is a restaurant cum bar and not a full-fledged club, the music will be down-tempo to mid-tempo but uplifting, exuding positive energy. The music will be soulful and organic, classy and elegant.
BAIT INTERMARK : Lot G-19, Grd Flr, Intermark Mall, 348, Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala lumpur : Call 03-2181 1268
FEBRUARY 3 : Volume featuring Kenneth F (SG) at Ren
Ren: Your Saturdays just got louder with Volume at ren. An amplified sonic experience for nocturnal revelers. Techno takes over the underground with the sought after sounds of our resident and guest DJs. A ‘no frills’ music-centric party, lower your inhibitions as we raise the volume and dance the night away.
For Kenneth F, his love for all things soul, funk and early Motown, listening to the likes of Smokey Robinson, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, AlGreen and many other artistes at a young age has enforced the artistry and versatility of the DJ he is today. Kenneth’s present day sounds consists of an eclectic mix, made up of thumping breaks and tribal beats. With a span of 20 years musical experience under his belt, his inimitable ability of reading the crowd and innate sense for music selection has seen him holding residencies in various reputable club establishments.
Dedicated to music and graphics his entire life and noted for his eclectic sound, Kubika is mainly a Techno, Tech House, Deep House & Disco enthusiast. He loves vinyl and is part of the team behind the Musika bazaar series and currently a resident at Kuala Lumpur’s underground music venue, Under9 and BAIT Intermark. A Graphic Designer by day, he also plays bass guitar and won Juice magazine’s DJ Quest in 2009.
Haresh K’s interest in electronic music waned with the depressing, painful rise of EDM during the mid-noughties. Arriving back home and somewhat resigned to languish at his abode, listening to old school dj sets, he was surprised to find a rather loyal techno scene at Under9. Bolstered by their presence and alcohol, he decided to throw his hat in, playing anything between his usual techno to house, occasionally broken beats to disco and trying to bridge them all without hopefully sounding too corny.
