Quick Takes: Daesung – Lunatic (What’s Up OST)

By On December 3, 2011 · Leave a Comment

It’s rather out of the blue, but the music video for Daesung’s soundtrack for his upcoming drama, What’s Up, has just been released. The song’s called Lunatic, and I really like it.

I also like [...]

So… David Garrett came to town on Oct 6 and 7, and boy was I glad to catch him both at his exclusive showcase at Avalon and at his signing session at Paragon. It was an amazing experience, because he is such a great violinist.

The reason why he’s so awesome, [...]

Playlist for a rainy day

By On September 19, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Lately, the weather here has turned wet and cold and I find myself pulling on a jacket when I head out. My right knee aches when it rains, and it’s starting to bother me a lot. The skies are a dark bruised shade of blue, and heavy, pregnant clouds threaten [...]
