Be@r With Me
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 22/07/2015
» The toy craze is hardly anything new in Thailand, a country where most of us grew up bingeing on Japanese manga and animé. Hello Kitty and her Sanrio comrades readily spring to mind as they have been widely counterfeited on these shores, but for real connoisseurs, one of the most mentioned and collected contemporary toys of today would be none other than the Be@rbrick.

Entertaining the masses
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 18/06/2015
» Steve Aoki didn't seem to be in the best of moods prior to his sold out headline show for Together Festival in Bangkok last month. He appeared to be in a heated argument with his manager, but for sake of politeness, we tried our hardest not to listen.

Soundtrack to a generation
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 04/06/2015
» I still remember the day Bodyslam walked into the Post's offices to promote their eponymous debut album in 2002. I was a rookie, and so were Artiwara Kongmalai, Tanadol Changsawek and Rattapol Phanchet. As I recall, they were awkward, gangly and didn't quite grasp the entire concept of a press tour. They were young men who had recently given up careers (in more respectable fields) to pursue their musical dreams. In retrospect, all the fidgeting and slight cockiness was well placed and self explanatory.

Voice of an angel
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 12/05/2015
» With blue streaks in her long, lush blonde hair, Jackie Evancho looks more like a typical 15-year-old trying to figure out a way through her teenage years than a global singing sensation.

Backstreet's back, alright!
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 08/05/2015
» Backstreet Boys' youngest member Nick Carter, 35, urged the Thai crowd to "act like you're 15" on Wednesday night. There wasn't any need for Carter to offer such encouragement because all 35 year-olds present at Backstreet Boys' "In a World Like This" tour behaved exactly like that.

Break on through
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 28/04/2015
» For Thai musicians, breaking into the international market is a coveted goal. Much like with any other area of popular culture, the influences, imprints, looks and inspirations of contemporary Thai music largely come from other parts of the world — especially the West. A Thai touch is often then placed into the mix.

Welcome to paradise
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 19/03/2015
» A mixture of intense, beer-smelling body odour and aggressive spitting can be fairly typical at hard rock concerts. Paradise Fest, featuring 11 of Thailand's top hard rock/metal bands at J.J Mall last Saturday, had none of that, but the rock experience was still taken to another level.

Gonna make ya sweat
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 14/11/2014
» As Thais, we love to dance. Within a space of just one month starting on Nov 22, there will be four full-scale dance music festivals that, although similar in terms of musical genres and DJ line-ups, will be produced, presented and themed in a variety of different styles.

Ain’t no such thing as a free lunch
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 11/11/2014
» I may not be Bodyslam’s biggest fan, but I have a lot of respect for Thailand’s biggest rock band — its unflinching dedication to its art and musical advancement doesn’t seem rest on its laurels or established fame. I understand why the band is where it is today, and I’m convinced it deserves its place in Thai music history.
