Core Values
Frenzied kicks. Ricocheting whirs of a pocket-sized synthesizer. High, high energy... and a bit (or maybe a lot) of manyao. Pure catharsis. Core Values is a collective consisting of members Cumboard, dwnld, ambii, and Oil Boy, driven by a DIY spirit and a shared love of genre-outing—a philosophy that has seen them through self-organised parties in their native Kuala Lumpur, sharing lineups with names like Endgame and Bulma, and on tours in Southeast Asia.
Mulan Theory
Mulan Theory is a versatile music producer, anti-DJ, and goofy ahh enthusiast who doesn’t take themself too seriously when it comes to exploiting sounds that incites a whole bag of mixed feelings upon an unknowing audience, leaving them loving or hating it like a durian.
Mulan is also part of Kerabu Komplex, a music collective that organizes anikura-adjacent parties which encompass all things internet, bass music, memes, and anime. Declaring death to genres, Mulan frequently experiments at the edges of the surreal in their own production and live performance, disrupting people’s perception of the modern music maker.
What to expect for those who wanna put Mulan in a box: hyperpoop, ads, religion, BASS, trailer, soundtrack, orchestral, AI, local slang, disrespectful transitions, stripshow, Hokkien trauma.
Lil Asian Thicie
Powered on infectious hooks and eclectic (even, erratic) genre switch ups, Lil Asian Thiccie; Kuala Lumpur-based singer-rapper-songwriter-overall-Dope-Person, has earned a spot in the forefront of the Malaysian urban music scene. With a growing catalogue teasing trap, pop, and everything electronica in between; her tongue-in-cheek lyrics and barefaced delivery marks a distinct sonic purrrson-uh! Having established herself as a one-of-one female hip hop starlet in 2018 to her pop-empowered revolution in 2021, Lil Asian Thiccie finds her balance between eras towards defining a trademark Gen-Lil Asian Thiccie sound.
