The first task

Ill try to make it as informative as possible

Jumaat 16hb- perjumpaan dimulakan di Tv3 pada jam 8 PM. Namun atas sebab kelewatan para finalis dari indonesia, kami terpaksa makan malam dahulu, diikuti dengan temubual (metro dan lain2) serta photoshoot yg tak pernah lekang. Malam tersebut is all about beramah mesra and getting to know each other. Para finalis dari indonesia tak kurang hebatnya. Kemudian, kami sekumpulan mengadakan sesi perbincangan bersama para konsultan dan pengarah muzik 'Gangstarz', Helen Yap. Sesi tamat pada pukul 2.30 pagi

Sabtu 17hb- Perjumpaan bermula seawal 9 pagi. Aktiviti pertama ialah sesi bergambar utk website dan promosi. Di samping itu kami telah diberikan tugasan oleh saudara Edry (Kru). Tugasan pertama kami ialah utk memberikan impak? Agak general ye. Selepas itu kami bergegas utk sesi d studio, bersama artis jemputan.

Ahad 18hb- kami berjumpa selepas maghrib di Tv3. Agenda utama malam tersebut ialah utk berkumpul ramai2 dan menonton'Gangstarz'. Pihak TV3 menyediakan popcorn, hotdog dan makanan ringan tak tumpah macam di TGV. Selepas selesai menonton, kami berjumpa dgn director yg akan membantu mempromosikan INF sepanjan tempoh penyiaran. Kejayaan sesebuah kumpulan sedikit sebanyak bergantung kpd pengarah tersebut. Setiap kumpulan diberikan seorang 'director'. Director kami bernama Lan..

Itu sahaja dari saya. Kami akan sibuk dengan beberapa aktiviti lain these few days. Jadi, saya akan cuba meluangkan masa supaya anda semua tahu perkembangan kami. Of course, ader juga aktiviti2 yang perlu dirahsiakan. Bukan apa, nanti tak surpriselah. Hingga lain kali. Sebarkan cinta..

Family Day


We had a meeting on Sunday 2PM at Burger King KLCC to discuss more about our strategy before 'gangstarz' kickoff. So we invited a few people we think might suit and come in handy. These beautiful people are very supportive and they had experience handling things like this. The ones who came was Rafik, Shah, Andy, Daniel, Alvin, Dato' Fahmie, Syai,Jibb & spouse, Sou, Lynn and Rizale. Then along the way came Wawa and Fifa.

So we discussed bout couple of things such as promotion and marketing for Infinatez. The conclusion is devided into 3, which is the artiste management, merchandise and the fan club. Yes, there will be a fan club guys. Merchandising will be fully handled by SOON (something out of nothing),a company under Jibb, Rizale and Alvin. And somewhere next week the official website will be launched, up and running. So it gives more reason for ya'll out there to come and visit our blog frequently. We will be announcing it soon.

INF (Infinatez N' Friends),

Infinatez Thank You

We would like to say thank you to all our friends yang keep supporting us throughout the growing and evolving of Infinatez for the past 3 years. For us Infinatez is not only these 5 people now that you see auditioning for Gangstarz. It is more than that. Lagi2 without the original line up of Infinatez, there will be no us now. A big kudos to Amir, Syai & Benign for the love. To all our friends, you know who you are, we love you. You guys are awesome. Yes Infinatez still has a long way to go, but insyaAllah with the help and support from you guys, Infinatez will come what ever may and be an influential music entity one day.

We probably can't mention all the names coz there are too many. Hehe, macam buat cover album plak ;) For now I would like to highlight some sites yang ada mention about Infinatez.

A few blogger friends yang kind enough to put up our campaign banner at their blog, keep rockin guys!!!

Infinatez in Gangstarz TV3!!

There was a press conference held on the 7th February at Poppy Garden. It was to announce the top finalist that is going to represent Malaysia against the likes of Indonesians and Singaporeans. We came early to set up everything since we ve been resting for the whole week, having very less practice. So there were the soundcheck session, where we supposed to do cover version of 'I DO'. But after several times, we decided to pick another song for the day

Right after we've done with our make-up (yes, we have our own makeup artiste), straight away head to the main area.The day started of with both Shazzy and Ruffedge performance before Dato' farid gave a brief speech. Later they announced the 3 profesional judges, Vernon (Ning's manager), Maple Loo (Choreographer) and Arab (composer). Ater the performance by all the finalist, there were a few photoshoots...

Our performance? We sang 'Viva La Momma'...and it was simply great, nuff said. So guys, check us out!! There will be videos and audios coming in our myspace!!

Public Announcement

Bismilllah, dengan sukacitanya ingin saya memaklumkan yg bahawasanya Infinatez telah berjaya melayakkan diri ke final top 6. INF bersama beberapa group yang lain akan mewakili Malaysia menentang kumpulan dari Indonesia & Singapura untuk menentukan juara Gangstarz. There will be a press conference this wednesday to make the public announcement followed by a showcase at Popi Garden around 4PM-6PM.

Di sini juga ingin saya mengambil kesempatan utk men'welcome' saudara Alvin sebagai salah seorang anggota rasmi INF dan melengkapkan barisan line up kami. Kehadiran beliau telah disambut baik oleh kesemua anggota malah sahabat sekeliling. Dengan adanya Alvin sama sekali membantu dlm melengkapkan variety tone, jalur-jalur harmoni serta kreativiti dlm INF. Beliau juga akan memainkan peranan dalam pembuatan lagu, pengurusan serta promosi. Di samping itu, Alvin merupakan antara manusia yang banyak membantu mempromosikan ThoseWhoBelieveRecordsEnt, sebuah syarikat yang lahir daripada ruang cipta kreatif anak-anak nakal Infinatez. Beliau merupakan anak kelahiran Sabah yang nakal dan agak kecil. Wajahnya kecina-cinaan memudahkan beliau mengambil kesempatan utk memperagakan dirinya kepada gadis2 cina yang disukainya dan pada masa yang sama memberi peluang untuk Infinatez memecah masuk ke market cina dan sabah.To date Alvin has written a few tracks for some of the underground acts. And for those who dont know, he is the founder of www.souldelite.com, the place where all the beautiful soul exchange ideas. So guys please help me to welcome my new brother, Alvin Mahathir Yunus

Kepada sahabat yg tak putus-putus memberi sokongan, this time around we promise you something different. Not only we gonna represent Infinatez, but the community as well. The music and sound we produce gonna symbolise the culture of the underground.

We love you!,
Andy Ariffin

The evolution of INF




This is Solemn, the group in which the four original founders of Infinatez met and shared their dreams and passion for harmonies circa 2004.











The first line up of Infinatez circa 2004 to 2005. We call them 'the believers' who dares to dream.












Changes are inevitable. Its either for the better or worse of the group. Without them there will be no Infinatez today.











The result is evidential. Infinatez stands abreast with the local RnB elites and at the same time, remained down to earth.











The school of 2006. The sound of maturity, more progress and soulful voices. Creativities and innovativities are the core of growth.











Development is a must, thus they developed and learned the hard way, that is from the bottom up. Deemed to be one of the best line up so far












Now they are back to inspire people. Remember our name 'Infinatez'









Kudos to our other half 'Phizy' for reminding us how grateful and blessed we should be with ourselves.

Boyz 2 Men

Sehari selepas berlangsungnya layar tanchap, bermulalah ekspedisi mendaki Genting Highland utk persembahan yang julung kali diadakan. Lagenda Rn'B Boyz2Men akan mengadakan persembahan di genting Arena Of Stars. Maka anak2 nakal INF sudah pasti tidak mahu melepaskan peluang tersebut. Not like they will come again in 10 years time!!


Kami berkumpul di Terminal Putra Gombak sebelum menaiki bas. Ampun tak terhingga kepada cik Endera kerana terpaksa meninggalkan beliau angkara saudara Fauzan yg lewat. Makanya kami berlepas dahulu sebelum menaiki skyway cable car.Waktu tue baru kami sedar sebesar2 daniel dia amatlah penakut dan gayat akan ketinggian. Mukanya berubah sama sekali bila di atas. Setelah sampai, kami terus 'check-in' bilik diikuti dgn acara makan tengahari di mana Daniel dan Andy masing2 telah menghabiskan 2 bungkus nasi ayam


Beberapa jam sebelum persembahan bermula, kami sempat bersiar-siar serta membeli-belah sedikit di samping mencuci mata melihat anak2 gadis yg comel. Tak sangka ramai juga sahabat2 yg pergi menonton, ke mana kami pergi mesti ader sahaja kenalan yang menegur. Selepas itu kami bersiap utk menyaksikan show boyz 2 men. Cuaca yang agak teruk serta kabus yg tebal tidak mematahkan semangat kami apatah lagi daniel yg mempunyai banyak lapisan lemak. Ramai juga yang hadir, agak penuh juga crowd malam tue. Persembahan mereka memang classy dan energetic. Selain berseronok, banyak yang kami pelajari dari segi pengawalan vokal hingga ke pementasan. Diorang memang hebat malah penghayatan mereka membuatkan ramai anak2 muda macho terus mengalir airmata hilang macho. Malah kami sempat menjadi stalker dan bersalaman dengan Wanya, Shawn dan Nate. Malam tersebut berakhir dengan menyambut harijadi Shah dan memotong kek


Keesokan harinya setelah bangun kami sempat bermeeting dan pratice sepam dua sebelum pulang. Oh ye, dalam perjalanan pulang kesemua 4 orang duduk di bahagian depan skyway termasuk Daniel membuatkan cable tersebut tidak seimbang dan hampir meragut nyawa kami. Weekend yang sangat seronok...huhu

Layar Tanchap Kolaborasi

Pada Jumaat 26 Jan yang lepas telah berlangsungnya Layar Tanchap Kolaborasi yg diadakan di Galeri Seni Shah Alam. Sememangnya Layar tanchap memang sudah sebati dgn jiwa kami. Dan pada malam tersebut kami tidak melepaskan peluang untuk berkarya juga. INF merupakan peserta terakhir utk program tersebut. Biarpun agak lewat, namun kami tetap berseronok. Seperti biasa tradisi INF membawa lagu acapella, dan alhamdulillah responsenya tersangatlah overwhelming


Terima kasih warga tanchap. Untuk review yang lebih detail, sila layari souldelite.
