What a Manic Sunday it was last week @ the Space, with a double showcase by Suzie and the Bebolas, Misery Through the Darkness, Medusa, Leech, Dish and Sleep on TV blasting the space in total loud action.

First up were Suzie and the Bebolas, who amused the crowd not only with the peculiar name they have for themselves, but their good music. Songs played were covers of ever famous hits such as Poker Face (Lady Gaga), Nobody (Wondergirls), Buried Myself Alive (The Used), and Zombie (The Pretty Reckless) and a few of their originals, such as Selain Dirimu and Love Undecided.

And then making the perfect prelude for a Metalcore Mania, was Misery Through the Darkness. This loud angsty bunch was set to rock out and did a good job in making an impression at the Space that day.

Main act Medusa was next up, making the closure for the first half of the showcase. This bunch got the crowd well alive and kicking with an intense and electrifying performance that cranked up the energy level at the Space.Songs played were Primadona, Lucky Bastard, Semifinal, Donnie Brasco, Thrombosis and Paradox, which were altogether loud and pure hardcore, ending the first part of the Manic Sunday Showcase at Homegrown Space. Great Job Y’all!

Taking the stage at Homegrown Space last Saturday, was the awesome blues rock band Dr Ruzdy. Originally formed in 2008, the founding members were Iskandar and Eddy, who had previously played together in the band. Other members, Ira and Owen later joined in 2010 and Dr. Ruzdy started gigging across KL and Selangor.

Songs played were Don’t Go, Matahari and Blues Jiwa Kacau, which are original selections by the band, as well as an authentic cover of the song Kasih, originally sang by Indonesian legend Hetty Koes Endang. They were fun to watch and had great interaction with the crowd, which consisted of a good mix of young and old.

Also featured at the event were The Aces, who are currently exploring genres,ranging from Pop Rock to Ballad, Metal, Punk Rock, Rock and Emo Rock. Songs played were Jiwa Kacau, Usah and the unique Ekspresi Semberono.
Although it was a rather short show, by the sound of applause at the end of the showcase, it was evident that everyone left feeling entertained.

We had back to back action last Saturday @ the Space, with stylo rock band Wedding Disco, talented singer songwriter Min’z and funny boys Djezna’s Stalker taking the stage!

First up for the day were newcomers Wedding Disco from Seremban, playing it safe with a series of covers by Jet, Oasis and Nirvana as well as three of their own songs - Tanda Tanya, Agenda Populariti, and Klasik Dansa. Being their second on stage performance, they seemed a little nervous but got over it by the end of their set.

Next was soulful singer songwriter Min’z, with her strong vocals and deep lyrics that especially resonate with feelings of insecurity and hurt. Min’z (pronounced min-zee), accompanied by several backup musicians, did a brilliant job in engaging the audience with her music, as the audience requested for more even after she had finished the song lineup for the day. A very intense showcase that will certainly be remembered for a long time to come.

Making the perfect closure for the evening were Djezna’s Stalker, the unique bunch with an awesome sense of humor. Vocalist Ahmad Nahri kicked of the act with a solo performance of
Clubbing” an original song, and a unique cover of his favourite song, “L-O-V-E” by Nat King Cole. Then, calling unto the stage his fellow bandmates, the show continued as they finished the show with another four songs.Good interaction with the audience, and great effort in trying to create “suspence” during the song Uninspired.

Hardcore band Bleeding Mascara made its appearance at Homegrown Space last Saturday

These boys coming all the way from Seri Manjung, Perak bombarded the crowd with one hell of a show! Anyone previously not a fan of death metal would have discovered an inner liking for it.

The hardcore bunch, is made up of Adamox (vox), Fattah (guitars), John, (guitars) Palie (bass) and Hayadi (drums).

It was a great show of energy as the furious members of the band flailed around like puppets under the control of a madman while the crowd watched in fascination. They definitely left quite an mark in our minds and we thank you for such an awesome show!

Sweet, mellow and pleasant were Halfway Kings, the acoustic duo who played at Homegrown Space last Friday night. Made up of Adeline (vocals) and Joachim (guitar) this heartwarming pair entertained their fans in an intimate session that was certainly memorable.

Songs played were Square is the Shape, Down and Over, Maybe Please, and their brand new single Tongue to the Board. Other songs played were covers to The Verve’s Bittersweet Symphony,as well as a medley mashup of Lykke Li’s I’m good, I’m gone, Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit, and Blur’s Song 2.

It was a short showcase but sweet nevertheless, and we certainly look forward to seeing more of the Halfway Kings in the future, here at Homegrown Space.

It just gets better and better each week at Homegrown Space! Last Saturday saw Fadzly Razman and his team of friends rock the space with a fantastic show. Kicking off the event that evening was the talented all-girl rock/heavy metal band, Shewolves. Lead by Abby (vox), Fina (guitar), Shasha (Guitar), Marylin (Bass) and Jessica (Drums), these hardcore chicks got the crowd alive and cheering for more with their electrifying tunes.

Next up was the equally fantastic band, Mystery Call. This ban d which was formed to compete in Hot.Fm’s Twisties Bingit, is made up of Pejo (Vox), Boy (Bass), Fahmi (Guitar), and Jenk (Drums).  With their rock songs ranging from easy to hard, they gave us a super “bingit” performance!

Then came Poppy, the trio who soothed the crowd with their mellow and relaxed music. Zaza’s sweet vocals, complimented by Ito (Guitar), Naufal (Guitar) were a memorable performance, with a group of audience swaying their arms and tapping their toes.

And then came the time for the grand act, Fadzly Razman to hit the stage. This promising rockstar, dubbed the Malaysian Daughtry sang his soul out accompanied by musicians Nan Antz (guitars), Azryx Sani, and Adzeem Jenk Modread (Drums). Also featured was 21 year old Illya Syahirah, who seduced the crowd with her sexy vocals in a duet with the man himself.

All in all, it was an amazing show of talent from everyone involved and we thank you all for the trmendous support! Keep on rocking!
