ABOUT RANtAi’s Acoustic Night
(Taken From :http://rantai-art.blogspot.com/)
RANtAi’s Acoustic Night is a yearly event, first started in the year 2007. This is a one-night event where performers will bring their music on using acoustic set. Usually, this event features local upcoming acts. For this year’s Acoustic Night, we decided to come up with 3 parts of music events, each will be on different days and showcasing different kind of performers.
The theme for this year’s Acoustic Night is “La Voix” Acoustic. The first part of the 3 parts will be happening on the 25th of May 2008 with the sub-theme, “La Voix de Femmes”. In this part, we will be featuring only female single acts and bands with girls as their vocalist. They are Yuna, Ana Raffali, Sundae, Lovesick Avenue and Robot Asmara. This coming event will be a tad different from previous year’s as we will be having a santai session between the performers, the media and the committee members. In a nutcase, this year’s Acoustic Night will bring up something different and surely will take the acoustic music to the next level.
Since it’s an acoustic night, a moshing crown won’t be seen there. Instead, a crowd which will be sitting down, singing along, enjoying themselves through out the night. The main objective of coming with this kind of event is to provide a variety of music to the different crowds here in Malaysia. Since every week people are organizing gigs involving loud music, a week without loud music and moshing crowd would provide a great relief for all of us.

“Lor.. band Malaysia ke? Ingatkan band ‘ tuuut’..”.
Heh.. Setiap kali mendengar ungkapan sebegini, buatkan darah aku menyirap sampai ke telinga. Rasa macam nak lempang je orang yang menghamburkan kata-kata tersebut. Kenapa ye? Kamu kurang yakin dengan produk buatan Malaysia?
Paling tidak pun ini menampakkan yang hasil karya anak seni tempatan semakin mendapat perhatian umum. Membuka mata tauke-tauke pelopor industri hiburan tanah air yang selama ini hanya tahu membuat profit. Selama ini para pendengar dan penggemar musik Malaysia telah cukup lama di’bodoh’kan oleh mereka. Hampir setiap hari masyarakat kita disogokkan dengan material yang sama dari setiap stesen radio.
Nah! Kini kita boleh berbangga dengan kemunculan nama-nama baru seperti HUJAN dan Meet Uncle Hussein yang setanding karyanya dengan lagu-lagu yang sering berkumandang di radio. Tidak ada bezanya mereka ini dengan band-band “import” yang selama ini terlalu di’hi light’ kan sehingga membayangi kemunculan bakat-bakat anak tempatan. walhal, jika kita peka dengan persekitaran,sumbernya sama sahaja.Influence yang sama,nota musik yang sama, cuma bahasa, idea dan kreativiti arrangement sahaja yang membezakan mereka.
Kemunculan band-band seperti HUJAN dan Meet Uncle Hussein ini tepat pada masanya. Cukup dengan garapan pakej yang diperlukan untuk muncul di hadapan beribu-ribu penonton, dibantu dengan sedikit tuah. Memang menjadi! Walaubagaimanapun, mereka tetap berhak di atas apa yang mereka capai kini. Segala kerja keras, wang yang dilaburkan, tanpa kenal putus asa serta jiwa ‘rockers’ yang tebal dalam diri mereka memang berbaloi.
Persetankan segala keji, caci maki orang. Cuma kamu yang tahu ape yang kamu lakukan! ” do it right! do it best!




Album Support Our Local Acts@ SOLA telah pun berada dipasaran sejak Disember 2007. Jika anda pencinta seni tanah air, jangan lupa dapatnya dan yang penting yang original. Apa salahnya sekali sekala @ biasakan diri untuk TIDAK ‘mendownload’ secara percuma dari internet lagu-lagu produksi tempatan
