The pandemic was pretty challenging for everyone, I found myself without any source of income and decided to switch careers to survive. Our country took 2 years before it legally allowed DJs to perform again. I re-entered the world of nightlife feeling almost like I had just become a DJ in recent times. It's taken me 1 1/2 years to find my footing, find what's relevant, and again adjust myself to a state of being that I am comfortable with.

Coming from Malaysia, we are always a few steps behind, so it takes a lot of digging to figure out what's happening in spaces around the world, that appeal to people like me, usually dark and filled with smoke :)

It's not my ultra best, but it's 4 hours, recorded live in a club, with humans coming up to me with kisses, hugs, love, requests, all while I dust off my rusty fingers at three CDJS - oh, and having to change batteries on my trusty ZOOM recorder. haha. 

Enjoy, comment, do as you please. 

Yours truly,

Who is JonnyVicious? (2024)

Getting a call 1 month before this gig was truly daunting, especially because Mihn was in my top club of Asia list. But the call came, and I agreed to an all nighter for one of the coolest promoters, Host. 

Walking into this perfectly created space had me an all time high, soundcheck was a breeze as the booth was probably one of the best I've ever played in. 

Now let's get into the night, as this will help explain the mix a little. I obviously planned a long set as I always would, starting nice slow and deep, but to my absolute surprise, the club was filled to the brim by 11.30pm. This of course meant that I needed to gear up, because look, a bunch of beautiful people just rocked up extra early to get their foot work in. I must say, there are moments where I lose sight of my music because of said beautiful boys and the fact that there was a dark room right next me. Haha. 

All in all, the crowd stayed till 4am, and then started to disperse as gays do when they suddenly crave a more comfortable setting. 

I will forever hold this space dear to my heart, as honestly, freedom and freak flags flew high.

Shanghigh X Connect Asia (Live from The Mansion, 20.05.16)

this could be/ this could work. this is 

they got lost ; 
amongst millions of galaxies ; 
a string of stars led them closer to something ; 
something perpetual ; 
something personified ; 

they landed ; 
they walked ; 
they saw ; 
they wondered ; 
they found ; 
immensely overlooking a diorama of insignificance ; 
they conjured and joined forces with a force unlike any they had known off ; 
they were young you see ; 
they groped the very existence of sound as if it was something that could be synonymous to magic ; also unknown
heightened drums. love. unknown. 

they were intrigued ; 


they took ; 
they imagined ; 
they asked ; 
synths of dark solid insignificance ; 
they traveled.  

lost. time was lost. 
it was so lost. 
how much more lost could time be. 

they showered them with sounds of continuous findings. 
galloping through asteroids and dysfunctional disco triumph. 

they knew they were right all along, that most of what was shown was positively inebriated inertia ; 

they ever so slowly tracked back, one synth at a time, they were tired of the ignorance ; 

they dispersed of them through a shaft not so wide ; 

they heard laughs of sadness fly through the energy that was almost 6 layers thick ; 

and then the drums, the drums disappeared and the synths rolled in, goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend. Sam Smith is ruining hisself.
