It’s the Year of the RABBIT, celebrate biggly! For the next seven days, KOMODO is featuring four of our FAVOURITE BANDS to spin on the air in 2022 - we are hopping into MALAYSIA, PAKISTAN, KOREA and INDONESIA!
Last year JAKARTA-based SCALLER @scaller_id dropped the amazing album “Noises & Clarity”, an infinite loop of 8 chameleonic tracks. If you play the album on repeat, you will notice there is no start or end to the journey! KOMODO has been playing all the tracks, this week let's dive into two of our faves, “Inside My Head” and “Music all we Have”. Both have STUNNING videos, check ‘em out!
A massive fave of the KOMODO staff over the past year has been 18FEVERS 일팔피버스 @18fevers, a Seoul death punk disco project featuring members of KOREAN bands GUMIHO, YATTERTOWN, and HER COLLECTION. It’s a driving death punk style with post-punk and dance vibes delivered with blistering vocals from their lead singer Christmas - yes, it’s nasty! We are spinning our team's fave “Dance Macabre” as well as the new double single “The Summoning” & ”Save Your Venom” in a back-to-back mix.
TABAHI @tabahithrash are notable as the only thrash metal band in PAKISTAN focused on the country’s turbulent socio-political environment, and KOMODO is always eager to give these Karachi thrashers airtime. Their 2002 standout for us was their music video “Run For Your Life”. It’s their signature fast tempo, aggression, rapid percussive and heavy palm-muted guitar riffs, energetic and high-pitched growls, overlaid with shredding-style lead work all happening on a Pakistani bus (woo, full on!) If you are only going to watch one music video today, make it this one!
Take some advice from the KOMODO team - If you are walking the streets of Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA and a Perodua Kancil (Licence plate WKX****) pulls up to the curb - DON’T GET IN! JEMSON @xjemsonx killed us last year with a gripping short film “Melankoliar” which features their song “Nostalgia” as the soundtrack. It’s the KOMODO short film of 2022!
Our featured fave artists are all playing in KATIE’s @katkills & JONGO’s @jongo_on_air shows this week. PLUS, as always, you can hear POSTER acts uninterrupted, back-to-back daily at 0600 & 1800 Singapore, Hong Kong, Beijing, 0330 & 1530 Delhi, and 0200 & 1400 Dubai.
Tune in via Satellite, Cable TV Networks, In-Flight Entertainment, Apps and Digital Streams right across Asia – and beyond!
