I'M RAINGERS: My Favourite Band, Hujan :)

HUJAN - is a music phenomenon in the internet era. this band started in 2005 with just Noh created demos on myspace. thanks to the power of social network, within few months they gathered some avid fans on myspace. finally in 2006 they formed as a band. From then on, they started to work on their first EP "1,2,3 GO?" and started touring across Malaysia.

Influenced by a diverse range of bands which include the likes of The Strokes, Butterfingers, and even Pot Amir Radiostaq (ROSIN),Hujan prefers to classify their music as alternative rock and has no qualms about delivering their material in Malay. Living and breathing the element they take their name after, their music alternates between the light, heavy and the torrential storm a reflection of the many stories, moods and agendas embedded in their songs.

They sing about everything from love, God, family and to the happenings of the world.

Hujan is, by far, Malaysia's most popular indie band. Started out with the humbling beginning of performing at underground gigs around Malaysia since its inception in 2005, Hujan considered itself as the ultimate alternative band that enjoy singing in the Malay language. In 2008, Hujan began its embarkation in the mainstream popular culture when two of its singles, "Pagi Yang Gelap" and "Bila Aku Sudah Tiada" received massive airplay and numerous requests at the mainstream radio stations, thus exposing its talent to general Malaysians. At the same time, Hujan started to tour the United Kingdom thanks to the demands by Malaysian students who were studying at the aforementioned country. For the record, Hujan is the only band in Malaysia to have released 8 popular singles in a year! More than 100,000 fans followed them over at MySpace, while their recorded performances uploaded at the infamous YouTube website have received more than 2 million viewers...and counting. So far, Hujan had successfully won 2 trophies at our very own AIM Awards, for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song for "Bila Aku Sudah Tiada".

2007-2008 period marked their journey as the most succesfull indie band in malaysia at that time with UK tour as their portfolio. with just one year, they crossed over from indie college gig to mainstream media crowd and the rest is history.

And because of my obsessed to Hujan, that is why my blog was named Raingers(Hujan fan name)
