Elyzia

I Love Elyzia, Elyzia Loves You!

Uerm... I think this shd be considered a late late post ar... supposed to have done it last week, but, year end, everybody is busy.. and therefore, only had the time to post this up now.

Neko San was busy with his work, and schedule is so packed with the shootings! However, we still continue our late night jamming on 19 Dec, but after jamming, Neko San gotta rush back to finish up his work... Jia you!!!

As usual, the rest continue with kopi session after jamming, before heading home sweet home... Just when we stepped into the car... Ivor saw a piece of paper on the windscreen. 3 of us were puzzled, thinking, was it a summon? but... summon in a commercial building carpark?? Was it a prank? or.... we got fans following us?!? Haha.... Stop thinking, and we got down to get the paper... and.... Tada~~~ below is a picture of the note:



Well, who else will write this kinda note? With a spelling mistake at the bottom? hehehe...

We Love Elyzia, Elyzia Love Us too~~!!!!!

Have a Merry X'mas and a Happy New Year!!!

Elyz Go! Go! Go!

Ambivalence

We are gonna put out an album hopefully by this year.

Frankie and Ivor was thinking of calling it Love And Hate. Bacause our songs are so far along this line. I came up with Ambivalence.......another term for L/H. Frankie thought it's kinda cool.

Anyways, can't seem to fall asleep at 6 a.m. in the morning, begin working on a mock up cover....the broken wing, the cross, those rings, and a whole lotta roses. And a woman ambivalently bounded.

P/S it's just a mock.


Have a God Blessed day.

I Love Elyzia

Fantastic 4

Busy week, busy week, very busy busy week...

For work, Rhea got so many budgeting to do, Mic need to design & shoot for the weekend, Frankie tabbing all his basslines, Ivor handling so many customers and quotations... busy busy busy! But then... during this hard times... think it's good to be busy.

For music, Elyzia is preparing for their 4th original recording now. It's something different from the previous 3 songs. But who knows how the final product will be after our concoction, lol.

Bad health week though, Rhea got flu this morning, Ivor over-strained his wrist and went for acupuncture earlier this week, and had not recovered yet... mmm... no wolverine genes here... Mic still recovering from D'arcy's scratches... Weather is not very good lately too, ya'll better take good care of your health. Drink more red wine, i mean water.

Everything is going pretty fine at the moment if not great and as Mic had mentioned, there might be a new addition. Meanwhile, keep the creative juices flowing and we shall give an update once our 3rd original 'Monster' is up!

Rock On~

Encouraged.

As I listen to our rough mix on Monster, I feel like I need to blog this. It's a verse taken from the book of Joshua;

Joshua 1:9
...Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.


Elyzia looking forward to their first studio shoot. And probably another new addition.

Frankie

... I heard her said "AI TAI LEI"... so I fed her "PARASITE"... hoping to turn her into a "MONSTER"... but she became a "PUFFYFISH" instead... causing "EARTHQUAKE" in my life til I realised she was a "PRINCESS" from HELL...

Almost Monster

Let me have the honor to be the first to present the thrilling adventure of recording numero 3.

As usual, sat is always filled with hectic schedule and running arounds. This sat is no different. Got a lift from Ivor and Rhea to the studio, where we practice the Monster song. I have not really practice much cos I was busy with church camp. And was really drained upon my return from it. But I believe this day is a blessed day. I had no much problem doing the song, and kinda feel really confident about it, given that this was suppose to be the hardest song so far for us...anyways.....

We hit the studio around slightly off three. As usual I am the first guy to lay the tracks. I was so surprise I can finished it slightly after five, that's like 2 hours for me..I spent close to four hours for Ai Tai Lei, three for parasite(and not doing my best.), I really think there's improvement in recording for me. Of cos, I was a tad confident today compare to the other sessions. But alas, many times Ah Boy came to my rescue! Ah Boy, you are the man! He save my ass yet again...! And at least this time, wo dui de qi zi ji! I did my best.

As for the rest of the instruments....let the other guys tell their part of the story! I shall not hog the entire super day!


Thanks guys. Without you I won't be enjoyin this moment.

Thank you Father. I know you are there all the time. :-)

Rock on!

Countdown to 3rd Recording!

Woohoo~ Our beloved Mic is back and Elyzia's 3rd recording is tomorrow!

Things are pretty healthy for Elyzia. Songs are still churning out, creative juices are still aplenty, equipments are still.. er.... being spent on..., friends are great and supportive. Basically, we are still focused and working towards Elyzia's goals and not letting them or anybody down.

We were beginning to wonder watz keeping Ah Boy from sending us our 2nd recording... you forgot to mix it! Grrr, no curry puff for you! lol. Kidding. We love you Ah Boy~

It is really not easy for working people to play music as part-time but still treat it as a full time passion. 'Passion' is essential cuz everybody only has 24hrs everyday. Since we were working, some more than 8 hrs, passion is the thing that drives us to make full use of whatever time we have left to contribute and work on our music.

A salute to everyone who give their hearts and souls in creating originals and efforts in preserving originality.

Rock On~

I am BACK!

I was away for my annual church camp. I remember sitting behind the back of the bus, listening to our own blend of music. Going through all the details of the songs of our past recordings in spite of the loud motor roaring at the rear end of the travel bus. Some thoughts went through my mind as I listen on. Alot of nice memories of the band was playing through my mind. I remember being late for the first audition, thinking I am not gonna get the gig after all.....the red wine....the late late night jammings...the tired Elyzia, the beaten but not out Elyzia, the coffee shop Elyzia, the Elyzia i have come to fall in love with. We have come some way.

We are goin into the studio again on sat. Alot of anticipation no doubt. Yet another milestone.

I remember calling Rhea and talkin to Ivor before I go for this trip. I hardly do that even to my parents. I think that speaks alot about how I feel towards this people.

I will continue to pray for this wondeful band. :)



Amen!
Michel

Quiet Week

Mm... feels weird cuz there's no jamming this week. This is another example that life is showcasing to us. Alot of things can happen, mostly inevitable, but we juz have to find a way to deal with it... or not... However, we have to believe that there are still genuine people who really supports us and will always be there when any of us falls. No proof for it, jus gotta believe that such things do exists. If a band is affected by such puny obstacles which will definitely occur again and again, it is not a band that is destined for greatness.

One thing about life is, shit happens, and they always comes in shit loads after shit loads... itz ok to be beaten down by it, cry our hearts out, and it is even ok to give up everything... but it is ok only when we choose to do it, because it is our choice.

For everything, we should know why we are doing it. This gives us, if not remind us the reason of why we begin in the first place.

Good news is, all the incidents happened last week gave rise to inspiration for new songs and we have 1 + 0.5 + 0.5 new songs added to Elyzia's current arsenal.

The road is long, shit everywhere waiting for their chance to happen, no such thing as a bed of roses... Ain't that the truth. But for working adults... it is not something we are new to... However... it's still the same comment... nobody said it was easy... You juz need to know whether you want to do it or not, and why are you doing it.

Next week will be recording our 3rd original... so frigggin looking forward to it. Somehow, this song will be a testament to our faith after 3mths of Elyzia-ing. If we can get thru this with flaming morale still, we must be doin something right, and thank you so much for everyone of us for doing this something right.

Something personal to comment here. Went to beez with Edmund. Had a very nice chat and service from beez, as usual. lol. I would still highly recommend beez to anyone in nid of musical service after all these years, he's the best. Kudos to you beez!

Cheers~

The Angel

Saw this guitar in Davis on Saturday... This is so beautiful! It comes with pink color luminous strings, my attention is totally taken away by it!!!

After that, heard from Neko San that this is a custom made for guitarist of The Alfee. Then i tried to search for it online... and found this page... A collection of Toshihiko Takamizawa's (guitarist of The Alfee) angel series guitars produced by ESP!

Omg... they are so BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Well, and they are not cheap too.... haha! Ok, one day, just one day, you will see Rhea holding one of them. Really, one day.
