It really breaks my heart that one of my favourite bands of all time is “disbanding”.
i remember watching them for the first time.
i remember watching and being there for every of their album launches.
i remember meeting Bani Haykal for the first time at Snakweed when they were recording their sophomore album.
i remember having a huge fan girl crush on the very talented Bani Hidir.
i remember having sing-alongs with my friends to their albums.
i remember nights where i tried to figure out how to play the songs and gave up half-way cause it was way to advance or the songs were just too awesome for me to have the heart to butcher them or the lyrics are just so unbelievably out of this word for me to handle.
b-quartet is probably the only Singapore band i’ve had such deep passion for. And i don’t just like them cause they are “local”, mind you. They’ve always been an international top tier act in my books. In fact, if it wasn’t for my love for them, i don’t think i would have have had eventually work with Willy Tan, my singapore manager who manages them too.
i really didnt expect myself to be so emotional about it, but hey. its a really sad day for the Singapore Music Scene. A band like “b-quartet” just doesn’t come by in every dynasty.
i love you guys, b-quartet.
And to haykal and hidir, please don’t stop making music. i’m a huge fan of your solo stuff, the poetry, mux & Page. and folks, please do check out the links. Its all quality artistry.
