Artistry: Global Art of Mixing

25th July



Hennessy Artistry is a famed global music campaign to promote the art of mixing various genres and blending the talents of the world’s top artists. Every trademark Hennessy Artistry event is an evening of pure unification; mixing sound, visual innovation and drinking experiences from around the world.

Translation: Great music + free flow of alcohol + beautiful ladies = One smashing night!!

Got a confirmation at the very last minute that i was on the guest list for the event held at the Bukit Kiara Indoor Arena.



Before the doors opened, took some shots of the beautiful ladies stationed at the photo op stands..




Local act One Buck Short making their entrance..


Once the doors opened, made my way into the arena. The Experience Zone sets the mood for what's in store for the night...


I'm not exactly sure what these 2 girls were doing... acting as DJ?






And of course...the lovely Hennessy girls..














And of course.. something for your tastebuds..


The main arena awaits after exiting the Experience Zone. It was just like one huge massive dance club..


Early entertainment was provided by DJ Milinka with some house beats..


Local act One Buck Short kicked off the show with an amazing performance..








They were later joined on stage with Taiwanese hip-hop group Homies..


After the Homies performed several songs, Dominique Tsai from Taiwan took over with her sexy dance moves..






DJ Camilo from New York took over the deck spinning a mix of old and new during the interval..


The next act was the big guy himself, Fatman Scoop. His loud, rough voice coupled with his stage presence was just amazing. This dude really knows how to work the crowds..








He was later joined by Dominique for his hit song "Put Ya Hands Up"..


Fatman can dance..




Next up were the Yin Yang Twins...






Half the time I couldn't make out what they were singing but the crowd looked happy enough..


She definitely looked like she's having a great time..


Towards the end of the show, Fatman Scoop took the lead and brought all the performers back out for their verison of Black Eyed Peas "Boom Boom Pow"..




The show comes to an end..


Overall it was a great event. The free flow of Hennessy didn't hurt either...

On a side note, there's a saying "People give money, you give your life". Just becuase it's free, there's no need to go overboard with alchohol. On my way out to get my car, I saw 1 guy puking by a tree, a guy trying to help a girl stand up, 2 guys trying desparetly to calm down their drunk friend who was shouting, cursing and almost coming to blow with each other. All this while the drunk guy's girlfriend watched helplessly. To top it off, there was a Myvi turned turtle at the exit ramp towards Damansara.
