Today's the second day of my recording on the last song-"DiversiFy" for my album@ The Factory Music Studios with mah bro, Yuri Wong. Probably the trickiest of songs to complete but at the same time fun and challenges are always a good thing in enabling yourself to Explore out of the box!=)
I thought it would be very much better having an Electric Bass to add to the groove of the song in the chorus section whereby the main influence would be the Jamiroquai kinda lines. And at the same time, give the song an edgier feel to it. So, i call upon my Bass bro, Shah who just got back frm Dubai frm a 3 month stint. It's a true blessing to have him here providing his expertise and touch to the main song of the album=) Shah and I have previously worked alot so we both are familiar with each other style and expectations.
The reason why this song would be a challenge is because first, its the main song of the album- DiversiFy therefore it gotta be the one that ppl would listen out for and it has to be radio friendly. Second, it tempo of the Verse and Chorus section varies therefore it has to be produced in a way its acceptable to the ears and of course playable. Third, Its more complicated in a way the blend of both Live and Synthesis instruments needs to sound as original as possible to avoid a Bias sounding of either side. Fourth, the lyrics of the song need to sound as Out Of The Box as possible minus the vocals of it which i myself would need to work extensively on that!=)...These are the four main reasons for now putting aside some minor considerations of course.
Shah & Yuri
Shah & Dennis
Here's a Sneak Peak of what we have worked on
Thanks
Peace- Good Music, Better Place
God Bless!

DiversiFy- First Draft
Once again, back in the studios again, doing what i love most- recording=)
Anyway, to update y'all a lil, im working on my last song before the entire Post Production take place(mixing and mastering) of the album titled- DiversiFy. I would say this song would comprise almost every aspect and element of the whole album as i was thinking recently, i need a song which could project the "Theme" of the album very much....
and thinking about that, one thing lead to another and wallah, we have a brand new track yet again! I realized i mentioned "MAHKOTA" would be my last track in my earlier post but the itch of writing and experimenting new material just cant be help!=)
Here's what both of us- my buddy/ partner Yuri and Me gotta say about "DiversiFy"
Inspired by Old School Hip Hop/ Funk & New School Hip Hop/ Funk, this Wave is still waiting to be cult!=)
Thanks
Peace- Good Music, Better Place
God Bless!

Debut of "Cooking Up A Storm" by Dennis Lau & Yuri Wong feat. MAJESTIK
Here's the Debut of the song Me & Yuri Wong have been working on for the past 2 months since our last gig@ Bangkok Jazz in Nov 2008. Right here, we incorporate this new genre which i would like to introduce- "Acoustic Hip Hop". As you can see, this time i have the privileged to introduce a good bro and fellow musician, MAJESTIK (All the way frm South Africa) also featured in my upcoming album.=)
The Genre "Acoustic Hip Hop", simply means incorporating acoustic instruments: Violin & Guitar with Hip Hop beats & Rap PLUS highlighting the different elements in this particular song or "Story" i would like to tell is in fact a very different introductory and an eye opener. Therefore, "Cooking Up A Storm" is borned!
How Blue The Sky by Yuri Wong feat. Dennis Lau
I would like to a say a very big thank you to my good mate, Yuri Wong for opening up to the different ideas we shared and sharing the stage with me..Same goes to MAJESTIK. & Of cos, to YOU, the audience for being such wonderful and supportive people!=)
Thanks
Peace- Good Music, Better Place
God Bless!
