WOOF – WALLS OF PREJUDICE

WOOF – WALLS OF PREJUDICE

YO GUYS AND GALS,
IT’S WOOF HERE. MY MUSIC IS ABOUT WHAT I BELIEVE IN LIFE. I’M FROM KUALA LUMPUR MALAYSIA. I GREW UP DURING THOSE HARZADOUS TIMES OF THE 70S AND 80S. DRUGS KILLED MOST OF MY FRIENDS. I’VE SEEN SO MANY JOYS AND PAIN OF LIFE AS I RODE THRU THOSE YEARS. I’M TRYING MY BEST TO PLACE THEM UP IN MY MUSIC. I MEAN, IT’S MY PERSONAL BELIEVE OF LIFE. MY MUSIC HAS GROWN SINCE THEN.

I STARTED PLAYING GUITAR USING MY BROTHER’S TELECASTER. HE IS A GUITAR PLAYER TOO. DURING HIS TRAVELS AND TRAVAILS, HE PLAYED WITH HIS GUITARIST FRIENDS AND EVEN BUSKED IN LONDON SOMEWHERE IN 1970. PRIOR TO THOSE DAYS, HE PLAYED AT HOUSEYARDIN GOMBAK WITH RAJA BADRIE THE BLUESMAN. THEY LISTENED TO HENDRIX, CREAM, JIMI REED, JOHNY WINTER, T REX, GRAND FUNK RAILROAD RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE, EAGLES, CHICAGO, MOTT THE HOOPLE '"E THE CHORDS", LED ZEPLIN, JANIS JOPLIN, WISHBONE ASH, ALAN PARSON, TANGERINE DREAM, WALLY, NEIL YOUNG, BOB DYLAN AND MANY MORE. AT THAT YOUNG AGE, I WAS STILL NAIVE AND CONFUSED OF WHAT WAS MUSIC ALL ABOUT, BUT I DID ENJOY THEM.

HONESTLY, MY LIFETIME BUDDY, ADEK PLAYS ROD STEWARD'S "FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST’"THAT ACTUALLY INTRODUCED TO ME WHATGUITAR MUSIC IS REALLY ALL ABOUT. MUSIC IS TO BE HEARD. HE PASSED AWAY ON 2003 DUE TO DRUGS. HE TAUGHT ME HOW TO PLAY THAT SONG. I’VE BEEN PLAYING THE GUITAR TILL NOW.

AFTER MY TEENAGE YEARS, I’VE MOVED OUT, UP TO THE NORTH AND MET MAT, THE GUITARIST THAT INFLUENCED ME MOST. HE PLAYED ME DIRE STRAITS ‘WILD WEST END’ VERY WELL. THAT MAKES ME WANT TO EXPLORE THE GUITAR MORE. HAILTO HIM WHEREVER HE IS NOW.

I REMEMBER LEARNING CLASSICAL FROM OMAR AT YAMAHA JALAN DANG WANGI. LATER I WAS MORE INTO ROCK STUFFS AND WENT TO CLUBS SUCH AS THE RED ROOSTER OR ANY OTHER PLACES WITH A LIFE BAND PLAYING. I STARTED HANGING AROUND AT STUDIO’S ALL OVER KUALA LUMPUR, FROM WASIAT, MAN HELIONS, AMERAH, BABYLON AND MANY MORE TO FOOL AROUND WITH, BUT NOTHING WORKED OUT WELL FOR ME THOUGH. I HAD OTHER THINGS IN MY MIND. I REFUSED TO BECOME A CLONE. BULLET SAYS THAT I’M A SPACE CADET. HE WAS RIGHT.

MY HANGOUTS LATER MIGRATED TO CENTRAL MARKET. IN THOSE DAYS. EVERYBODY WANTED TO BE A STAR. YOU NAME IT, FROM DEATH METAL TO GRUNGE OR BLUES OR WHATEVER, THEY WERE ALL THERE. I HANGED OUT WITH A DUDE NAMED ZAPA. HE HAS TAUGHT ME TO BE MORE OF MYSELF THAN ANYONE ELSE. I WAS INTRODUCED TO HIM BY JOE KIDD AND MET MORE FRIENDS THERE TOO. AND AT THE SAME TIME, MY PASSION AND LOVE TO THE INSTRUMENT HOOK ME UP WITH ABANG ROM WHO HAS A MUSIC STORE IN WILAYAH COMPLEX. MY LOCAL BUDDIES IN GOMBAK HANGED OUT THERE TOO, THAT INCLUDES GG OF GG PRO SHOP AND SOME OTHER DUDES.

LATER, I HAD TO MAKE A GRAVE CHOICE, WHETHER MUSIC OR WORK. IT SEEMED THAT MUSIC WAS UNABLE TO FEED ME. I CHOSE WORK AND LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

I SOLD OFF EVERYTHING OUT BUT NOT MY SOUL OF MUSIC. THAT SURE HURTS.

I HAVE ALWAYS SOMETHING ELSE IN MY SPACED OUT MIND. NOBODY WANTS TO WORK THINGS OUT WITH ME. EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE KURT COBAIN OR MALMSTEEN OR AT LEAST, A GIG STAR. I WAS NOT THE PICK OF THE DAY. I WAS SO UNFOCUSED. HOWEVER, MOST OF MY SO CALLED HERO GUITARIST FRIENDS ENDED UP FRUSTRATED LIKE ME TOO. THEY ALSO BECAME A WORKING COMMONER OR ELSE, A POSER OR A MUSICAL PROSTITUTE.

AFTER OFF AND ON WITH WORK, LOCAL AND OVERSEAS, I FELT SOMETHING WAS REALLY MISSING IN MY LIFE, MY MUSIC NEEDS. I NEED TO GO ON WITH MY LIFE THOUGH I’M INDEED VERY FATIGUED AND TIRED. THAT WAS SOMEWHERE AT THE END OF 2007. SO, THE QUEST BEGINS. THOUGH I WANT MY MUSIC TO BE HEARD ALL OVER, PLEASE BUY OR DOWNLOAD THE ORIGINALS ONCE THEY ARE RELEASED. YOUR SUPPORT IS HIGLY APPRECIATED.

BIG THANK YOUS GO OUT TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS/FANS/FOES WHO HAVE SUPPORTED/HATED ME, LITERALLY. WITHOUT YOU ALL, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SHARE MY MUSIC WITH SO MANY AND LIVE THIS DREAM OF MINE SO FULLY. YES, I DO STILL DEFY THE CATEGORISATION AND THE MALAYSIAN MUSIC SCENE RULES. YOU ALL MADE ME PUT LOVE, DEDICATION AND HARD WORK INTO MAKING THIS DREAM INTO A REALITY.

LOVE AND RESPECT TO YOU ALL.

A MALAY GIRL CIRCA 1909?

I’M A MALAYSIAN FROM THE MALAY ETHNIC GROUP. WE LIVED IN THE MALAY ARCHIPELAGO, WHICH COVERS MOST OF SOUTH EAST ASIA JUST LIKE OUR ANCESTORS, IT’S THE ORIGIN OF OUR LAND. THERE’S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT. PREVIOUSLY OUR EARLIER RELIGIONS ARE HINDU AND BUDDHA. ISLAM CAME IN LATER. THEY HAVE NEVER INTENDED TO DESTROY OUR BELOVED CULTURE. SADLY, SOME PEOPLE SEEMS TO FORGET THIS. MOST OF SOUTH EAST ASIAN ARE HAVING THE SAME LOOKS AND SKIN COLOUR, THOUGH WE SPEAK IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES AND DIALECTS. THE PROOFS ARE IN THE ARCHEOLOGICAL FINDINGS IN ALL OVER SOUTH EAST ASIA. WE ARE ALWAYS LOYAL TO OUR KING. OUR ’JEBAT MUST DIE’ FOLKLORE WILL TELL THE TALE. .

OUR OWN CULTURE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. MALAYS LOVES ART. WE LIVED IN PEACE AND HARMONY. WE HAVE CONNECTED TO OTHER PARTS OF ASIA LONG BEFORE WE WERE INVADED. THIS CAN BE VIEWED IN A THAILAND MADE MOVIE, ‘QUEENS OF LANGKASUKA’, WHICH IS ABOUT AN ANCIENT MALAY KINGDOM THAT ONCE RULED THE REGION.
