Toyota presents Good Vibes Festival

The much-loved Malaysian music festival Toyota presents Good Vibes Festival once again celebrates its homecoming to the rolling greenery of The Ranch at Gohtong Jaya in Genting Highlands by championing international chart-toppers and cutting-edge local acts. Now in its fifth edition, #GoodVibesFest returns this year on 21 and 22 July 2018 .

Toyota, known for its commitment to quality and constant innovation for the future of people, cars and communities, joins Good Vibes Festival this year as a title sponsor. Ravindran K., President UMW Toyota Motor Sdn. Bhd., shares that he is proud to be the title sponsor of what will be an exciting event for Malaysians: “At Toyota, our goal has always been to move people, literally and figuratively; and we believe music does just that. We are delighted to support the promotion of Malaysian arts, culture and music communities, especially among the youth.”

Today, the two-day getaway festival announces its buoyant bill for 2018 which includes New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde ( “Royals”, “Green Light” ), whose latest album walks a tightrope between art pop and melodrama for the mainstream; arena-fillers English alt-prog trio alt-J ( “Breezeblocks”, “3WW” ), on singular form fresh off the success of third full-length release ‘RELAXER’; and American act The Neighbourhood ( “Sweater Weather”, “Scary Love” ), whose signature moody, slinky sound will prove fitting against the backdrop of the highlands at The Ranch.

Also on the #GoodVibesFest bill is Australian pop phenomenon Nick Murphy fka Chet Faker ( “No Diggity”, “Stop Me” ), whose recent artistic metamorphosis towards a more radical, neo-soul r’n’b sound is reflected in his decision to retire his former moniker Chet Faker; as well as Seattle-based electronic duo on the rapid rise ODESZA ( “Sun Models” featuring Madelyn Grant, “Line of Sight” featuring Mansionair and WYNNE ), known for carving out an identity in a crowded electronic pop landscape with their envelope-pushing ethereal, expansive anthems.

Bringing his batch of emotive, electronic club bangers to #GoodVibesFest is the Prodigal producer SG Lewis ( “Aura”, “No Less” ). HONNE ( “Someone That Loves You”, “Warm On A Cold Night” ), oozing sensual synths, slick basslines, and swoon-inducing choruses, will soundtrack the sun setting on the misty greenery of The Ranch. Still in his teens, the precocious French prodigy Petit Biscuit ( “Memories”, “Sunset Lover” ) will make his presence known at the festival with atmospheric, melodic nostalgia-inducing masterpieces.

American DJ-producer pair Louis The Child (“It’s Strange”, “Weekend”) also front the festival with electronic dance bangers, seductive scores and tropical house vibes. Finally, rounding up the international bill for now, Toronto duo Majid Jordan takes the stage by straddling the sweet intersection of bright, pulsing pop songs and melancholic, moody r’n’b cuts.

On the local lineup, acts announced include Altimet ( “Amboi”, “Kalau Aku Kaya” ), one of Malaysia’s most prolific rappers who will be performing with The Kawan Band on the day; Noh Salleh ( “Angin Kencang”, “Bunga Di Telinga” ), the award-winning solo artiste and frontman of indie rock stalwarts Hujan; five-piece rock’n’rollers Kyoto Protocol ( “Jelita” feat. Liyana Fizi, “Tiada Lagi Kidungmu” ); electro duo darlings Pastel Lite ( “Assassin”, “Damsel” ); fast-rising feisty rapper Zamaera ( “Helly Kelly”, “Wanita” ); Malaysian indie-pop artiste Froya ( “Sunny Side Down”, “Uncomprehended Child” ); songstress-songwriter Bil Musa ( “No More Excuses”, “Owe It All To You” ); Malaysia-based Indonesian producer Emir Hermono ( “3AM In Jakarta”, “Fake Friends” ); and singer-songwriter and YouTuber LUNADIRA ( “Forever’s Not Our Thing” ).

SaturdaySelects , the beatmaker and selector collective made up of members the likes of Lionel Rizki, Reddi Rocket, and Roshan, will hold it down at the Electric Fields stage on the first day, before making way for r’n’b powerhouse Raising The Bar presents A-Kid, Senna, Dan $hiv (live), and many more on the festival’s final day.

ONE World Championship Belt: Most Valuable Prize in Martial Arts

Every martial arts athlete aspires to become world champion, not just to be recognised as the best in class, but to receive the perks and trinkets that come along with holding a prestigious title. Among the most coveted is, of course, the prestigious championship belt. In martial arts, there is no prize more valuable than the ONE Championship title.

The ONE Championship belt is a symbolic ornament of honor and glory. Weighing more than seven kilograms, the jewel-encrusted silver and gold-plated belt is mounted by hand on a thick natural leather strap that is locked together securely with 10 steel studs.

The pair of warring lions that frame the centrepiece ONE Championship logo represents royalty and prestige, and it is complimented by a crown motif at the belt’s apex. Two blood-red rubies are placed in the eyes of the lions, while two secondary plates added eminent value to the handmade masterpiece as it is studded with 52 crystals on each side.

Needless to say, it is beautiful prize, and one that is the perfectly suited for its holder.

Yet beyond the intricately crafted piece of hardware itself lies a much deeper significance. Holding the belt in possession means the champion is the best in the world in his field and this effectively makes the belt worth more than its components.

In 2018, ONE Championship has announced the establishment of the ONE Super Series, at the same time launching Rich Franklin’s ONE Warrior Series.

With the ONE Warrior Series, ONE has placed the emphasis on discovering fresh young talent – martial artists who have the potential to become the next global superstars.

ONE World Championship Belt

With the ONE Super Series, the promotion aims to showcase the beauty of Asia’s striking arts such as Muay Thai, kickboxing, karate, taekwondo, Kung Fu, wushu, sanda, silat, lethwei, and more.

Along with matches officiated under ONE’s unique Global Rule Set, the promotion now tackles all spectrums of the competition landscape. Because ONE now encompasses all martial arts, this effectively makes the ONE Championship belt the most valuable prize in all of martial arts.

With world-class athletes representing not just Asia, but also the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, ONE has widened its global footprint to 1.7 billion viewers on any given night in over 136 countries around the world. The belt, which has often been referred to as the richest prize in combat sports, becomes representative of the true value of martial arts.

ONE currently has world champions in 10 divisions, represented by eight elite global athletes. When ONE Warrior Series and ONE Super Series champions are inaugurated, ONE will then have the largest collection of world champions in martial arts history for a single promotion.

As the talent continues to rise and flourish in Asia, the competitive landscape gets tighter. As it stands, ONE already boasts of the most talent-rich roster in all of martial arts. And with its continued development of local homegrown martial arts superheroes, ONE has become a promotion that only organises bouts between top competitors.

Bukti Mawar Rashid dan Elvina Mohamad KALIS KASIH

Kehilangan kedua ibu bapa tersayang secara serentak dan sekaligus menjadi yatim piatu sememangnya merupakan dugaan paling berat untuk diterima dan memerlukan kesabaran yang amat tinggi. Disusuli pula dengan masalah rumahtangga yang berantakan dan kehilangan kedua anak yang disayangi. Itulah yang dilalui oleh Mawar Rashid menerusi lakonannya dalam drama Samarinda Kalis Kasih, yang turut dibintangi oleh Elvina Mohamad, Amar Baharin, Syazwan Zulkifly, Nazeera Sardi, Amyza Aznan, Azri Iskandar, Rosnah Johari, dan Iduerra Matilda dalam drama Samarinda Kalis Kasih.

Kalis Kasih arahan saudara Nazir Jamaludin yang mengandungi 15 episod ini diterbitkan oleh Z K Creative Production Sdn Bhd. Drama yang bertemakan kekeluargaan dan pengorbanan ini bakal menemui penonton semua pada setiap Isnin hingga Rabu bermula 2 April, pada pukul 10.00 malam.

Drama ini mengisahkan tentang dua orang sepupu yang sebaya tetapi berbeza karakter dan latar belakang iaitu Amanda dan Dania. Amanda (lakonan Mawar Rashid) dibesarkan di bandar dan sudah biasa dengan kesenangan, manakala Dania, yang dilakonakan oleh Elvina Mohamad, dibesarkan di kampung dan hidup dalam kesederhanaan. Takdir seakan ingin menduga mereka berdua apabila ibu bapa Amanda lemas ketika beriadah di sungai. Amanda terpaksa meninggalkan kehidupan bandarnya dan berpindah ke kampung untuk tinggal bersama keluarga Dania.

Seperti yang anda jangkakan seperti cerita-cerita melayu yang lain, semestinya Amanda tidak tahan tinggal di kampung. Oleh itu, Amanda belajar bersungguh-sungguh dan dapat sekolah di sebuah sekolah berasrama penuh. Setelah berjaya, Amanda bekerja di bandar dan berkahwin dengan Khair, lakonan Amar Bahrain. Pada masa sama, Dania pula telah menjalinkan hubungan dengan Bard (Syazwan Zulkifli), seorang jejaka kampung yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan tetap. Hubungannya dengan Bard tidak disenangi oleh kedua-dua ibu bapa Dania, Pak Kudin dan Mak Zauyah.

Setelah beberapa bulan berlalu, Amanda melahirkan seorang anak perempuan yang dinamakan Iris. Khabar gembira ini menimbulkan keterujaan Mak Zauyah yang ketika itu tidak sihat. Dia ingin menyediakan air akar kayu untuk Amanda. Namun, tanpa diduga, Mak Zauyah telah tergelincir di dapur dan meragut nyawanya.

Setelah enam tahun berlalu, Dania akhirnya bertunang dengan Bard. Syarikat audit Amanda dan Khair semakin maju dan ini membuatkan mereka terlalu sibuk sehingga tidak dapat menguruskan anaknya Iris. Amanda meminta bantuan Dania untuk menjadi pengasuh Iris. Pada masa sama, Amanda juga sedang mengandungkan anak kedua. Dania teruja apabila dipelawa untuk menjadi pengasuh Iris di samping menjaga rumah Amanda dan Khair.

Puan Halena, ibu Khair pula senang hati melihat rumah tangga anaknya semakin terurus semenjak kehadiran Dania di rumah Amanda. Pada ketika itu juga, pertunangan Dania dengan Bard telah diputuskan oleh Pak Kudin apabila Bard dilihat menjalinkan hubungan sulit bersama wanita lain. Walaupun pertunangan Dania terputus, kehidupan Dania tidak terjejas kerana Dania sedang bahagia bersama Iris.

Namun, kebahagiaan keluarga ini hanyalah sementara apabila mereka diduga dengan Amanda yang keguguran anak keduanya dan kematian Iris. Ini membuatkan hubungan Amanda dan Dania semakin renggang. Apakah yang telah berlaku di dalam keluarga ini?

Dapatkah mereka merasakan kemanisan keluarga bahagia sekali lagi seperti dahulu kala? Ikuti kisah pergolakkan rumah tangga Amanda dan krisis hubungan Dania ini dalam drama Samarinda Kalis Kasih setiap hari Isnin hingga Rabu bermula 2 April, pukul 10.00 malam, di TV3.

UTUHNYA CINTA SITI NORDIANA DALAM “HATIKU MILIKMU”

Sifat kesetiaan, ketulusan, kekuatan, istiqamah dan iltizam yang bersungguh-sungguh yang wujud dalam sanubari wanita sering diungkap dalam naskhah-naskhah zaman silam sama ada di alam Melayu ataupun Barat. Keutuhan cinta seorang wanita yang setia tidak ada pasang surutnya, tidak pernah berkurang apatah lagi hilang ditelan masa. Sekali dia menyerahkan jiwa dan raganya kepada seorang lelaki,  sampai ke hujung nyawa dia akan tetap melestarikan rasa kasih dan sayangnya kepada pasangannya.

Begitulah luahan SITI NORDIANA dalam single terbarunya yang berjudul “Hatiku Milikmu”.  Ini merupakan single solo Nana yang ketiga selepas muncul juara dalam program Gegar Vaganza 2 (GV2) pada tahun 2015. Masih mengekalkan tema cinta dalam single terbaru ini, Siti Nordiana yang mesra disapa sebagai Nana ini beranggapan lagu ini bukan hanya mengisarkan kisah cinta biasa, malah ianya lebih memfokuskan kepada sifat wanita yang setia dan tulus dalam percintaan.

Bagi Nana lagu ini melambangkan keutuhan cinta seorang wanita. Walaupun pernah dikecewakan, hatinya tetap setia dan cintanya tetap utuh. Sukar untuk dia berpindah ke lain hati apabila sepenuh jiwa raganya sudah pun diserahkan kepada lelaki yang amat dicintainya,” jelas Nana tentang perihal yang diangkat dalam “Hatiku Milikmu”.

Single terbaru ini merupakan hasil gubahan Nana sendiri bersama Shana yang bertindak sebagai penulis lirik. Lagu berentak pop balada ini diterbitkan oleh syarikat rakaman milik Nana sendiri, SND Soul Entertainment dengan kerjasama Seventeen Eleven Music Sdn Bhd sebagai pengedar.

Sesuai dengan suara dan kecenderungan Nana sendiri yang selesa membawakan lagu-lagu irama balada yang sudah sebati dengan dirinya. Nana sekali lagi mempertaruhkan genre pop balada untuk single “Hatiku Milikmu” ini. Menjanjikan sedikit kelainan terhadap karya terbarunya ini, Nana memilih untuk menyuntik sedikit elemen moden ke dalam susunan muzik “Hatiku Milikmu” agar berbunyi lebih segar dan berbeza berbanding lagu-lagu Nana sebelum ini. 

“Apa yang boleh Nana simpulkan, muzik dalam lagu ni memang cukup istimewa. Lagu ini sepatutnya lagu sedih dengan melodi mendayu-dayu dan lirik yang melankolis, tetapi sebaliknya lagu ini kedengaran tidaklah sampai meruntun jiwa. Itulah keistimewaannya. Lagu sedih tapi muziknya sedikit rancak,” ulas Nana. 

”Lagipun, sengaja Nana hasilkan lagu ini agar tidak bernada tinggi dan bersifat lebih santai. Senanglah nanti untuk peminat menyanyikan lagu ini di karaoke atau menerusi applikasi seperti Smule,” jelas Nana lagi.

Sekiranya lirik dalam single Nana sebelum ini “Terus Mecintai” merupakan cerminan kisah percintaan Nana sendiri. Inspirasi lirik “Hatiku Milikmu” pula datang dari sumber yang berbeza. Penyanyi kelahiran Negeri Sembilan ini menjelaskan,“Ilham untuk penulisan lirik lagu ini bermula daripada lontaran idea Nana dan Shana. Mengambil contoh kisah-kisah cinta di sekeliling kita, kami berdua sama-sama fikirkan latar cerita terbaik untuk lagu ini. Lirik nukilan Shana berjaya memberi jiwa kepada lagu ini.”

Turut dilancarkan bersama single ini adalah video muzik rasmi “Hatiku Milikmu” yang akan mula disiarkan Video muzik ini merupakan arahan Sergiu Chirau dan Dragos Cruceat dari agensi produksi video, Storytellrs. Penggambaran dijalankan selama seminggu di Krabi, Thailand dan sekitar Kuala Lumpur. Menurut Nana, inilah pengalaman pertamanya menjalani penggambaran video muzik di luar negara sepanjang tempoh karier seninya yang sudah menginjak usia 19 tahun.

Video muzik ini turut menampilkan pasangan lakonan Nana dalam telemovie “Cekelat Semanis Honey” dan “Cekelat Tak Semanis Honey”. Pemilihan Fikry Ibrahim untuk bergandingan dengannya dalam video muzik ini menurut Nana adalah bagi memenuhi permintaan peminat yang mahu melihat kesinambungan gandingan mereka di layar perak. “Ada sesuatu istimewa yang Nana sajikan dalam video muzik ini. Peminat kenalah tonton kalau hendak tahu lebih lanjut,” ujar Nana yang turut teruja menantikan hasil video muzik itu.

 Nana yang sibuk merencana kerjaya seninya dalam bidang nyanyian, lakonan dan pengacaraan untuk tahun 2018, berdebar menunggu penerimaan peminat terhadap single terbaru ini berkata,“Selama ini memang Nana cuba berikan yang terbaik untuk peminat. Merekalah sumber inspirasi Nana. Harapan Nana agar “Hatiku Milikmu” ini mendapat reaksi positif peminat Nana khususnya dan pencinta seni tanahair amnya.”
