Visualscapes is a visual projection installation produced by Efozy. The concept of this installation is to display visual in a different perspective angle view. By combining the synchronization of audio visual and installation art, user will be able to experience the 360 degree visual perspective from front, side, top and bottom view. Every angles has its own interpretation of visual experience to user, every motion has its synchronization movement with audio. Each of the scaffolding installation has its own “heart” and it will response to the visual. Visualscapes Production: Visual Installation : Efozy Director: Fauzi Yusoff

Monoloque Monoloque was born in 2004. The man himself, better known as Loque, was the founder of the well-known Malaysian grunge/alternative/independent band, Butterfingers. He is also the main composer/lyricist for the band. The band which was founded in 1992 has received enormous popularity in Malaysian Music Industry, having 8 albums under their belt, 4 English albums – 2 Malay albums - 2 Compilations albums. Currently Butterfingers's KEMBALI is nominated at AIM 2009(Anugerah Industry Muzik) for Best Rock Album and 1000 Tahun(mahu hidup) for Best Rock Song,one of many songs written by Loque. As the band gets it success, Loque known for his love to challenge himself and to explore new things in life, comes up with Monoloque in 2004 when the band he founded took a hiatus from the music scene. He knew that he had to start from scratch and not falling into the comfort couch that he had for almost 15 years as the band member & founder of Butterfingers. He began to explore the other side of him that some people think was the darker side of him. He listens to the great late R.Azmi and made a research on him. He went back to the 40’s and began to explore the things that would inspire him later on. As he goes on, he realized that he love sounds in general. Sounds that would break the comfort zone that he had with his band, Butterfingers. 2004, the year he took a break from every thing became the year he discover his true-self. And that year itself, “Jika Aku Seorang Robot” was born followed by his alter-ego, Monoloque. He received mix reviews & feedback when he shares the song with his close friends & foes. Some like it, others hate it.
Blastique Blastique is widely credited as a sonic surgeon of sorts, and is rapidly becoming one of Malaysia’s pioneer dance music exports; his assertive and progressive sound already earning him successful releases on Electrofly (UK) and Silo Recordings (UK). Classically trained in music, he has since spent the past 7 years perfecting his electronic music production skills. Today, a degree-wielding Sonic Artist, Blastique laces his sound with scalpel-like precision, technical mastery, and an unrelenting attitude that refuses to be pigeon holed. On the performance front, Blastique has played alongside; Satoshi Tomiie, Dreadzone, Layo & Bushwacka, Soul of Man, Groove Armada, Nigel Dawson, Josh Wink, and DJ Lord (Public Enemy), to name a few, and in addition to a residency at RAW KL, has performed at several events around Australia and Malaysia including; OneAM feat.

Blastique performs live, and integrates his arsenal of MIDI gear & Ableton together with some tight programming, resulting in a sound that can be possibly described as progressively techy, funky, melodic ‘n breaky.
