继上次和一班大马博客星到录音室去录制《大马部落》的主题曲《我们还有梦》。

当天的录音还算顺利，基本只需要几个take就收工了.他们好强。。。哈哈哈。 （卖花赞花香）。回想起来，我最后一次见其他的博客星已经是7个月前的事了。。。时间过得真得很快。。。

这次在和大家一起聚一聚唱歌，感觉很爽，因大家都有一个共同的目标，共同的兴趣，共同的话题。



今天早上，《大马部落》 的主题曲《我们还有梦》终于出炉了。

大家可以点击这里下载《我们还有梦》 (谢谢Jerry的提供）

猜猜哪一个是我的声音啦。。。哈哈哈

夏娃 :
我是潛水而來的魚，游到這裡輕嚐你的美麗。
遠遠感覺你的無常悲喜，靜靜感受你掠過的痕跡。

陈明汉 :
在你懷裡，用心去聽、秘密讓有心的你洞悉。
用力地寫，拿出勇氣。氣息竟是如此的甜蜜。

陈锦煌 :
碰在一起也不覺擁擠，是緣份讓我們靠在一起。
今後無論身在哪裡，記得彼此填滿過的記憶。

刘国顺 :
在你懷裡，用心去聽、秘密讓有心的你洞悉。
用力地寫，拿出勇氣。氣息竟是如此的甜蜜。

合唱
緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
今天誰和誰靠得哪麼緊密，明天誰依然情繫這裡。
緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
不要忘記曾經守護這裡，不要放棄我們的約定，
因為我們、 我們還有夢。

庄慧娴 :
隔著天空發送一份情意，黑暗中渴望被慢慢尋覓。
這裡刻下我最熟悉的自己， 我留在世界上的回憶。

庄润聪 :
在你懷裡，用心去聽、秘密讓有心的你洞悉。
用力地寫，拿出勇氣。氣息竟是如此的甜蜜。

Sheali :
今後無論身在哪裡，記得彼此填滿過的記憶。
狂風暴雨我不哭泣，因為我擁有了你。

David (ME) :
在你懷裡，用心去聽、秘密讓有心的你洞悉。
用力地寫，拿出勇氣。氣息竟是如此的甜蜜。

合唱
緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
今天誰和誰靠得哪麼緊密，明天誰依然情繫這裡。
緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
不要忘記曾經守護這裡，不要放棄我們的約定，
因為我們、 我們還有夢。

緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
今天誰和誰靠得哪麼緊密，明天誰依然情繫這裡。
緣是多麼奇妙的際遇，因為文字我來到這裡。
不要忘記曾經守護這裡，不要放棄我們的約定，
因為你們、 我們還有夢。
因為你們、 我們還有夢。

1027。。。。一个让人抱和抱人的日子。。。。
抱了一些人。。。不多。。。还好。。。
依旧保持我的一贯作风-酷。。。。
基本上没什么认识到人，除了一些曾经见过的朋友，其他的都一律不认识，除了ykching(因为他坐我隔壁）。
我就从头到尾坐在同一个位子观察，发现蛮多小弟弟小妹妹的。。。。哈哈哈。老了老了。。。。

我和ykching

Master of Screw-ups

Thinking back 6 years ago in the year 2002, I was still a freshie in UKM. Then a senior Louise Teo invited me to join New Tune and played for NTLP VI. And since then I'm attached to New Tune up till now.

In this period of 6 years (NTLP 6 to 11), I've seen lots of stuff in New Tune, met lots of people in New Tune, learnt a lot from New Tune and so on and so forth. So far I'm the longest performer in NTLP to date having playing for 6 NTLPs.

Just don't know why this year's NTLP doesn't give me any feel or satisfaction after the gig finished. Maybe is the numbness after been playing for the event for 6 years, or maybe there's nothing new anymore. Well, I think this is the last NTLP for me.

Still, this year I did a few new stuff, including an orchestral arrangement for a pop song featuring 6 keyboards with 3 handling the strings section, 2 handling the Oboe and Harp and 1 handling the piano parts. I also played a Blues improvisation on my Fender Strat for one of the ala Lounge Jazz arrangement. I also arranged an acoustical song with Choong How and I doing an acoustic duo featuring my old Ibanez acoustic which has been missing in action for 5 years.

However, for this year's NTLP was a bit boring to me because lack of Rock songs. A disappointment indeed because the songwriters are still not matured enough. Anyhow, it's over now.

I'd like to acknowledge and thank the following people for playing for my arrangement:

Musicians for SOMEONE:
Witter on Drums
Choong How on Bass
Me on Electric Guitar
Christine on Percussion
Kellyn on Piano
Hui Xin on "Cello"
Yun Xin on "Violas"
Grace on "Violin"
Kai Thien on "Oboe" and "Harp" and the 'act'
Jin Hua and Seen on Vocals.

Musicians for <幸福午后> :
Choong How and I on Acoustic Guitars
Kellyn, Yun Xin and Su Rong on Choruses
Kai Thien on Vocals.

I also would like to thank the following musicians that I've worked with on 《不哭》。
Kellyn on Drums
Christine on Piano
Choong How on Bass
Me on Electric Guitar
Kar Wei on Vocals
and Andrew on the ideas.

I also would like to thank the person who borrowed me his/her Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse and those who fetched me to practice all the way from Sentul Timur when Choong How was still in Jakarta.

Thank you to Ah Foo, Chris and Xiang Xi from UM who came to support us.

And lastly, those that I've offended, I'd like to apologise. The reason I being very demanding is because I can only practice during Sundays. So I want everyone and everything to be ready for practice. So I have to be demanding in order to have things in order. (Although, some didn't adhere to it). Still, I appreciate your effort and patience.

Enough said... the pics...

Hi all,

This is my first inaugural post at blogspot.
Recently met a friend from the net, Robb. Sort of a fan of his blog now. Check out his blog.
His blog inspired me to create my own blog. So here I am with my own blog here.

Why pick "Little Gray Dots" ?
Obviouly I wanted to pick dctw.blogspot.com, because dctw is my initials. But the account was taken by someone else.

dctw = Dirty Crappy Topsy Wired news heh.......

So back to the question why "Little Gray Dots"?

On our monitor, the graphics that we see comprises of little tiny dots, called "Pixel". A collection of these pixels forms a graphic. Hence forming something that is viewable. So that would mean "Graphics from a monitor", which implies something that's virtual -> Blog, a virtual diary.

Why choose the color gray?

Well, I started using the PC quite young. I guess around 9 years old. Back then, we don't have graphical OS like Windows XP that we use nowadays. We only used DOS. DOS only has a black screen with a grey characters. So it's kinda tribute to the early OS. And Gray happens to be one of my favorite colors. and I have a band called "GrayAtmosphere".



So, thank you for dropping by. Hopefully I'll blog often.


Regards,
David
