It was Sunday but yet..An exciting and superb event took place. The man voted 3 times as number one DJ in DJ’s Mag annual Top 100 vote, DJ Armin Van Buuren made a quick stopover at Zouk KL after Singapore to spin his stuffs. This is the first time I met Armin face to face. Am not really star struck ed, but this guy is famous. I have listened to his stuffs before. I can say it s good. But a recorded album is nothing compared to a LIVE performance. I got to Zouk around 930 pm to cover the press con. A small gathering attended by tv crew and a reporter from Star Publication. Armin was pretty frenly and he said ” Guys, come on closer and ask questions”. Cool! I thought. He is frenly and I was not shy. I went up close to take pictures. Okok. Although I do listen to his stuffs, I didnt know Armin was actually a law graduate. So guys, go out and live your dreams!

The nite was still young and the crowd streamed in steadily. I thought many will opt not to come as Monday was a working day. Boy..Was I wrong. By 11 pm, Zouk mainroom was already packed to the brim. I regretted not getting in earlier. I was not able to get to the front deck to get a clean shot of Armin doing his thing. Shooting from sideway was no good either. The crowd was huge and attempts to get to the front was futile. I end up with few shots only.  Odd it may seems, yesterday the crowd was predominately Middle East folks. Ah..They really know how to party.  Anyhow, again I m in BW mood and converted a few pics. Not really good pics..But something to share. Trance music is good.
