Volumed10...the past and present

Wednesday, December 24, 2008




It was back in 1996 where 4 students from a college in KK; Kole, Raf, Pyan and Cyril teamed up to form a band called volume10. With the influence from the seattle sounds, and local power house band Butterfingers, they often jammed in a studio in AsiaCity. Weekends was the day for those 4 geeks to runaway from the busy and hectic of being a students, the studio(Forgot the namelah), fast became the group study center to experience the electric sounds of music instead of the gitar kapok and ketuk meja things in hostel. Though, jamming was only for pleasure whereas study still the top priority and they were really mean it. In 1998, they were met again in a campus but Cyril had other sight in joining the metal group led by fellow friend, Aloy. Then, Bagax turned up and bashing the drumstick for fun! Ejam was all of sudden joined the group as bassist and it completes the line up.

Year 2000, this group had an invitation from Zeal Jamming Zone which was base in Karamunsing, KK, to perform at a gig called Local Youth Band Show Performance. This was the highlight of their musical career where the invitation was only for certain music groups in KK. Playing their self-composed materials at that occasions was a high stake just because of no one knows the band yet. Besides, the other bands were already established with experiences becoming setlist centralized in KK underground scene.

The most memorable performance was back in 2000 UMS Tamu Gadang, heavy rain dropped suddenly as the group took stage."Tu lah, apsal buat gig dekat majlis mcm ni???kan dah diturunkan tanda yg gig ni tidak dialu-alukan." Commented by a student on that tragic night. Since then, the group dissolved acrimoniously in 2001, and each member pursued their own career....and of cause it is not music.

Bagax - Teacher, Kole - Chemist, Ejam- Engineer, Pyan - Educator, Raf - Petroliam Nasional

Cheers.
