Colette - Didn't Mean to Turn You On

Colette reply my tweet this morning after she had fun with her first play in Bandung.

DJColette@*** I would love to come back to Bangkok. I was there for 7 hrs on a layover, but that doesn't really count. ;)

I do hope she can make it to Bangkok or even my city Phuket real soon. To get her here, I'm trying to persuade all friends to have a listen to her music and of course you here should listen to hers too.

DJ. Colette has covered a legendary "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On", originally performed by R&B singer Cherrelle recently. The song was also covered in 2001 by Mariah Carey for her movie Glitter. That version means nothing to me.

'N Sync - Do Your Thing

I just heard Ciara's new single the other day. 'Love Sex Magic' is the collaboration between Ciara and Mr. JT Justin Timberlake. The music is SO Justin. I know from the very first few seconds that it's gonna be another hit.

I think Justin is really good in what he's doing. His latest album as a solo artist 'FutureSex/LoveSound's proves it all. I have checked his discography from Wikipedia whether as vocalist, songwriter and producer. This guy is just rock!

Even though his solo career establishes him outside the realm of his then-former band 'N Sync, I think some tracks in 'N Sync's Celebrity show us where his music style comes from. My A-list track in the album is 'Do Your Thing' The song written by James Moss, is not even a single, but I just like the sound in it.



There ain't no excuse for losing your feet drowning in your defeat, on this road of life. There ain't no excuse for coming up short. The ball is in your court. So reach up and touch the sky.

Colette - If

I ran into the girl 'Colette' more than 6 months ago while surfing around Samantha James's Myspace. No regret checked out her Myspace and also her own website back in the day. Now she's one of my favourite house DJs.

"With her disarming doe eyes and a heartwarming demeanor, Colette possesses the unmistakable voice of post-millennial house music"

You would say "If" is quite outdated to mention of on May 2009 as the single was released for more than a year ago. (I don't think any music would be outdated though) But the single is awesome, at least that's what I think. So what's wrong posting it here.

For all of us Asian who not familiar with house music, it might be a good start to try the genre with Colette's album "Push". Good news is she's coming to our region very soon.
