'Bohemia'/REVIEW

• Now Playing: Jamiroquai - Dynamite
  
  ‘I Can’t stabd to fly
  I’m not that naïve
  I’m just starting to find
  The better patrt of me
  
  It may absurd
  But son’t be naïve
  Even heroes have the right to bleed
  It’s not easy
  To be me ….'
  
  Okay, got that outta my system. Same ol’ shit, just a different day.
  
  Now, this has nothing to do with what was written above. Shock, shock horror, horror, horror, shock shock. Horror. I made my way down to H.V. today. Yea to some people it be sonsidered bloody ‘bohemia’, to me it’s my lepak spot, I can go there in my berms n tee and just chill the whole day there, and nights sometimes.
  
  Didn’’t know the carnage they have done in building an MRT station there. Soon, gone are the days of it being a quiet, uaint spot for people around that area to to run their errands, meet up and stuff.Really can’t imagine the type of crowd it may attract when the damn MRT opens in afew yars time, probably some swaku from gawd knows where. I really don’t understand why the hell would they want to build a station when it’s so fucking accessible. You’ve got Buena Vista MRT just behind (are Singaporeans tat lazy to walk these days?) You’ve got a shitload of buses that have to go along Holland road, so why ? WHY? WHY!! I feel that somethings are better left untouched, it’s starting to feel it’s charm …..
  
  Abways, if I am in Holland village, it’s usually cos of 4 things: music, Food or to meet up with peps and of course, the most excessible chicken rice stall for me .. haha. And yea, went to Rhapsody ad finally got some nu choons, so heres a quick review…
  
  Bought 5 cds today + 1(Alvin gave me a anniversary compilation that he compiled himself). This may seem excessive but I’ve been starved for 4 damn moths, apart form the few albums that Dames dumped into my lappy when I waas down for the weekend in May. Anyway, I’ve already went through 4 of ‘em:
  
  Verve Unmixed 3: continuation from the 2nd compilation, classic ol’ skool jazz from the 50’s and 60’s. Say no more, I might wanna get the 1st one just for sollection’s sake.
  The second CD was this Mondo Bossa CD, featuring rare 60’s Bossa Nova tracks, it’s almost got this 60’s spy thriller soundtrack going on about it, Bit of that 60’s groove and funk,hilled nonn the less.
  Third CD was X=Rated Lazz, yea sounds cheesy but it’s the usal Nu Jazz, do have afew tracks form that Skima Records compilation that Ihave. At the moment.
  Last one need no introduction. Jamiroquai’s latest: Dynamite . I’ve finally gotten round in getting one of his CDs, he’s one of those artiste that would be on my list but don’t why I always opt to get something else. None the less, he keeps to what he knows on this one, which would be good in a way: electro funk, jazzy house’ish (highly remixable), though tere are some rather raw tracks on this one, abit of acoustic guitar and stuff. Good shit.
  
  The 2 remaining albums would be Rhapsody ^th abbiversary CD, I gather it would be the usual stuff that Alvin plays when I’m there. The orger Cd would be Thhe Bravery, something along the lines of Franz Ferdinand, The Jikkers, Razorlight, Kesabian etc, indie or garage rock if you’d wanna fir a genre to it. Sounds like New Order or Duran Duran if you’d wanna go way back….. This would uench my thirst for a week or 2 …..
  
  Arms are aching ….
