So last month Sean Kingston was in town to perform a few songs in KL, his first stop was Zouk KL - it was in conjuction with Hotlink and Hitz.fm.

You might know him from his overplayed song "Beautiful Girls" - I do prefer this version though "Sean Krapston - Suicidal Song".

Zouk is blessed with being in a rather iconic location with the KLCC towers looming behind it, this always makes for good pics outside.

There were lots of people outside taking pics and having fun with the Hotlink boys and girls.

Inside was pretty packed with everyone waiting for the arrival of the star for the night.

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago the 2008 Hennessy Artistry parties would be kicking off in KL and Penang - 18th & 19th April.

I attended the KL party on April 18th with a whole lot of other famous bloggers and we partied the night away in the VIP section with plenty of tasty Hennessy cocktails (Hennessy and Ginger Ale rocks it).

Anyway the party was at Zouk - Jalan Ampang right in front of the Iconic KLCC Towers. The party itself was actually down in Velvet.

The crowd where there signing up, those who signed up online, invited guests and VIP/Media.

Atmospheric entrance to Zouk.

DJ Keri was there of course singing with a rocking orange wig and corset..

She looks better in the magazine pics really But then she has been married 18 years and has two kids - not bad eh?

These two were the only ones really dancing during DJ Keri's set, the dance floor was pretty quiet.

VJ Callen working the visuals.

Bloggers rocking the dance floor.

Keri finishing up her set.

Lot's of teh femes bloggers.

Simon Seow, Jen Kin Yat, KY and FireAngel.

After that DJ Andrew K started his set and the place started moving, he played some pretty sweet tunes I have to say.

He really got the dance floor rocking and the party rocking.

Lot's of booze - yay!

Plenty of hot babes.

Discussing Drinking?

Just Drinking!

And of course happening party people!

The dance floor was pretty packed by then and the party was in full flow.

Ladies were working the podium.

And word up to my British homeboy James!

I think it's only healthy to end the post with some cleavage...so here you go.

It was definitely a rocking party and I'm looking forwards to the next Hennessy event.

Ah finally! A party I really enjoyed. So the story is, I was invited to a product launch by Heineken who are launching new "sub-zero" bottled beer in Malaysia, their sub-zero draft has already been installed in 30 locations through Malaysia since September this year and now they are launching new Sub-zero beer chillers for bottled beer.

I was a bit annoyed as it was 7pm on a Monday night in the middle of KL...during the season when it rains a lot during early evening - just great!

I got there about 7.45pm and queued for some draft, good stuff. It really does taste better when it's extra cold - we were upstairs for a while at the bar whilst waiting for the launch to kick of downstairs in Velvet Underground.

So we headed down, there was ice everywhere, huge green blocks of ice filled with bottles of Heineken - good stuff!

The place was fairly well packed.

Joey G was the emcee (as he always seems to be nowadays) and the thing kicked off with a video about how the beer is best served extra cold, then a delivery by the regional director for Heineken - sounded like an Aussie.

Hmmm fluffy white outfits and free flow sub zero Heineken beer!

What a deal.

They sure know how to make us happy

More soon of course.

Last weekend I went to Speedzone at Zouk, in honour of the MotoGP at Sepang the next day.

I was attracted by the top notch line-up (Matt Darey trance god and Seb Fontaine).

I was on the media board - femes can?!

The backdrop of course was KLCC visible clearly behind Zouk.

Then when we went in there was some cool bike simulator, you couldn't actually control it - it was more for experience but it was fun. The screen was massive and the sound loud.

It chucked you around pretty hard too - kinda cool.

Yah it's that time of the year again! Speedzone is coming and the Speedzone tour 2007.

It's going to be hitting Zouk KL on the 20th of October with some serious headline acts. Matt Darey and Seb Fontaine rocking it hard from my homeland, two of the DJ's I really enjoy.

The rest of the line-up is pretty decent too with Princess Superstar, Gareth Emery & GaryDJ.

Zouk Mainroom: DJ Joey G of Channel [V] fame will get the party started and set the pace for UK’s favourite DJ Matt Darey, a chameleon of sound whose productions have been a major influence to the industry today.

Last but not least presenting trance wonder boy Gareth Emery (ranked #34 in the DJ Mag Top 100 Poll), tipped by Paul van Dyk as the artist to breakthrough in 2007, who will take you to the finish line!

Velvet Underground: Presenting the one and only female DJ for the night, Princess Superstar who is renowned worldwide for her mash-ups between hip-hop, electro and rock. She has performed with N.E.R.D, Bjork, Z-Trip and KRS-1 and her remake of “Exceeder – Mason vs. Princess Superstar” debuted at #3 on the UK pop charts!
