Live It Up

Last year one of the highlights for me musically. While there wasn't any gigs and things were going slow cause we were looking for a singer and drummer. I had the opportunity to work with the most accomplished musicians in Singapore for a good cause.

The Live It Up movement was a Breathe movement that serves to discourage the youths from picking up smoking. Live It Up was also where the Black Diamond Ninjas performed at while back at Plaza Singapura.

So this year putting together the best of the best bands in Singapore like The Dirt Radicals,  Caracal, A Vacant Affair, The Metric System together with the legend himself who wrote the song Mr Patrick Chng. The Live It Up came up with this masterpiece.

To create a global movement spreading the message about leading a tobacco-free lifestyle. The Live It Up song was written to encourage youths to focus on choosing what’s positive for us and to tap into youth energy and enthusiasm to create a tobacco-free world!

The music video was based on the remixed version. I apologize for the close up act cute shot, I had no idea what I was doing to be honest.

Th experience working with the people? Damn intimidating can? I was so afraid of playing it wrongly and not professional enough. I was working with the most professional and awesome people and recording at Snakeweed Studios with Leonard Soosay.. wah lan balls shrink. 

Truth be told this is not the type of music I would normally play, but it's definitely a very different experience. Go download the song and take a listen to it. 

I guarantee that you will like it. Well its free anyway.
