This is Kaamatan featuring Alvin a.ka. Defoo

Kaamatan or Pesta Menuai or if translated in English 'Harvest Festival' is here again! What better way then to celebrate it with some song and dance ey? Speaking of songs, here's the updated version of my This is Kaamatan song. Previously I recorded it as an 'acoustic version'. This time I added some other elements to give it a more festive feel and of course a Sabahan ethnic music theme to it too. This song was recorded in my so called 'Home Studio' yesterday. It was one terribly hot Sunday afternoon. Since my recording room doesn't have an air conditioner, we had to switch off the fans … [Read More...]

Feel free to download. I'm feeling generous today. For … [Read More...]

Kaamatan Theme Song, 2008

To celebrate the Kaamatan festival or the Harvest Festival of Sabah, Borneo.. I decided to write song for this occasion. A good way to occupy my time since I am having some trouble sleeping anyway. Normally, Kaamatan songs are in Kadazandusun language. Yeah, you guessed it. I don't speak the language even if it's my mother tongue. Sad. Anyway, enjoy the acoustic version of this song. It sure took me more than 4 hours. I even went out for dinner … [Read More...]

She Doesn’t Love You Anymore

Here's a continuation from my acoustic guitar version of She Doesn’t Love You Anymore. There should be more parts added but I'm still experimenting. I am still a long way from doing a proper mix and mastering. Everything is done by ear. No mathematic formula whatsoever. For those of you who are lonely this Valentine's day, I dedicate this song to you. [audio:She Doesnt Love You Anymore.mp3] … [Read More...]
