Are you ready to become part of a new music movement in Malaysia? Tired of the same old bands, events and music formats? On Wednesday 5 October, Heineken Green Room returns to break the monotony with the hottest event of the year at the all-new KL Live in the heart of KL’s business district. Featuring US indie darlings Gossip and their fashion-icon front woman Beth Ditto at the heart of an incredible line up international and local talent, get ready for a Green Room experience unlike any other.


Helping Heineken Green Room to strip away the ordinary layers of our lives to reveal the dynamic core below is heavyweight US indie band Gossip, known for genre destroying and dancefloor friendly tracks tracks like ‘Standing in the Way of Control’ and ‘Heavy Cross’, which have scored the band Top 10 hits across the world. They’ll be shaking things up alongside Art vs. Science, the hard-rocking electro trio with a reputation as one of the most combustible live acts on the Australian live scene.

Of course, such a high-octane night deserves equally sizzling local talents. Heineken Green Room will see the live debut of Mini Compo, the electronic punk pop project from LapSap star DJ Xu and veteran Malaysian underground artist Jit Woei (Nightlife Camera, The Beads) as well as a surprise closing set from Malaysian alt-music mainstays Twilight Actiongirl and a hot-off-the-line collaboration from openers Hypeembeats and Jeehoe spinning a back-to-back blend of electro and hard-edged dance beats.

“Heineken Green Room has evolved from a small, invite-only event into the leading destination for new and cutting edge music in Malaysia,” explains Jasmine Foong, Marketing Manager of Heineken Malaysia. “And now we’re channeling all of that energy and commitment from our consumers and music fans into a new movement for local music, with Heineken Green Room becoming an environment where you can experience music in brand new ways.”

From its first inception in 2008, Heineken Green Room has evolved and carved out a reputation for its innovation, combining talents and music stars that represent the broadest possible spectrum of electronic music acts, from dance DJs to electro-tinged rock acts. This year, Heineken Green Room returns with a vision to define a new musical movement in Malaysia.

It’s into this movement that fashion icon Beth Ditto will land in when her band plays its debut Malaysian set at Heineken Green Room – and one of its first in South East Asia. Considered a muse by the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Ditto and Gossip have reinvented the concept of indie chic, throwing the rulebook out of the window and injecting some much needed humour and glamour into this male-oriented scene.

But for all the column inches that Ditto has generated, it’s Gossip’s stage performances that have earned the band their true plaudits and explains their impact on Heineken Green Room. Festival headliners in their own right (Parklife, Australia, 2011), Gossip’s music achieves a new intensity and ferocity live as Ditto throws herself from one end of the stage to the other, a visual energy in tune with the movement propelling Heineken Green Room.

And in bringing you the artists of the future, we can disrupt the boredom and normality of everyday life, especially with artists as vital as Sydney-based Art vs. Science. Described by Australian entertainment site The Vine: ‘[with their] fist-pumping, bass-throbbing anthems, the cheek of Art vs. Science might be the only thing saving [us] from utter blandness’, the band is yet another example of an award-winning live act electrifying the stage at Heineken Green Room.

It’s that feeling of exhilaration that breaks you from the daily routine, and saves you from the monotony and the blandness of the ordinary. In challenging that normality, in pushing the boundaries of live music and the way we experience it Heineken Green Room is helping to define a new musical movement in Malaysia.
