A local star on the rise, OJ Law is filling our radio stations with his catchy melodies and groovy vibes. This multi-talented singer/songwriter is definitely getting himself a wider fan base by the minute because well, he deserves it! Last year, he was invited to perform for Urbanscapes and the crowd obviously could not stop themselves from dancing to his infectious beat (just to show how good his music really is). This soulful musician who usually performs with a keyboard or a guitar has recently released his third album entitled “Let’s Be Adult”. His current hit single ‘Introvert’ will get you hooked instantly! Our other favourites include Tongue-Tied and Fantastic Adventure featuring Liyana Fizi.



As stated on his Facebook bio, Ali Aiman is a self-made brand synonymous with musical artistry. Just like OJ Law, he made his big debut by performing at Urbanscapes last year. This underrated talent graduated with 1st Class Honours in Contemporary Writing and Production from Berklee College of Music. If that doesn’t wow-ed you enough, he is also a master on the piano and trumpet. Ali Aiman started turning heads (and ears) over his EP ‘Overture’ and has recently released a new music video for ‘Breathe’. So, what are you waiting for? Go check him out now and prepare to be blown away!



OMG if you don’t know the legendary OAG. 90’s kids literally grew up listening to them especially when the band started gaining fans after releasing their single ‘Slumber’ in 2002. Their music was very much anticipated afterwards and the album Satelit Ink gave fans exactly what they are expecting for-- soothing vocals with poetic lyrics and harmonious melody such as Akustatik and Permysuri. One can never get enough of them (yes, even until now). Currently, OAG consist of frontman Radhi, Nazrin, Azzam, Afiq and Izmer. They are now working on new materials so let’s hope it will be out in no time!




Formed in 2004, Bittersweet rises as one of the pioneers of pop-rock bands during the emergence of indie music in Malaysia. This band consists of four brilliant musicians; Herri (guitar, vocals), Emai (keyboards/synths, vocals), Fizan (lead vocals) and Moon (guitar, vocals). They have toured Indonesia, Singapore and of course this motherland itself and probably have the most devoted fans ever. Aside from the catchy Capital E and crunchy Kucing Hitam, their song ‘Going into the Black Hole’ was selected as one of the soundtracks for KAMI the movie. Originated from Ipoh, these lads combine multiple elements such as pop, indie rock and punk into their music that are influenced by Oasis, The Stone Roses, and The Beatles. With third album in the making, we are definitely excited for it!
