Rocking Night at Hard Rock Cafe

The night when FOS, Jabal Rootz, Baim solo, Mohatsing, Pongki and The Dance Company put together.   May I say AWESOMENESS!!! Will upload the video's tomorrow, but in a meanwhile you can follow their twitter! @FOSnation , @MoHatSing , @Jabalrootz , @tdc_band .

This is another project I've done for TDC on Trax Magazine fashion spread photoshoot. We're actually planned to shoot it in a actual garden, but its been raining cats and dogs so we moved to Trax studio at Thamrin. Yep, all of this picture was taken inside a studio, Agan Harahap the self-taught photographer have done an amazing job making this picnic-in-the-park so real. All of the pages filled with their snap shots while they were singing, eating, and laughing (blame the beers!). It was fun! I recorded them singing their first single "Papa Rock n' Roll" during this photoshoot. Check out my youtube channel Artkanitoarca.

My first project (ever!)

This is the first project I"ve been working on as a stylist. Two years ago when The Dance Company started their album, they asked me to help them for their first fashion spread for Rolling Stone Magazine Indonesia. I came out with an idea, do some presentation and lucky me, they all interested. They gave me only 2 weeks to finish all the blazers, pants, shirts and shoes. It was crazzzyyy!! I bought all the raw materials at Mayestik, Blok M, went for a quick body measurements, then working on it night and day. I haven't got any proper sleep but its soo worth it. I'm literally married to my sewing machine. I made 2 sets for each of'em. I'm still learning, and still willing to. Major thank you to Rolling Stone magazine and TDC for giving me this opportunity. It became one of the best thing that ever happened in my life on 2009! If you wanted to know what it looks like on set, you could watch it on my youtube channel Artkanitoarca. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I do.

Rock n Roll Daddies

Im one of the person who 100% agree with a phrase "Rock and roll its all about the aura, never about the look", well needless to say, the person who got me into that kind of thinking is Ipang . Yeah I know he's totally got the package- his aura, his look, his voice. Makes me realize how many names popping into our head when we have to name at least 5 rock band in the 90's . Hundreds..Nowdays? not really. If we're talking about rock n roll music in Indonesia its kinda rare. The -trying too hard rock n roll wannabe band- LOTS!! and -Im a rockstar because Im rebel and drink beer- Plenty!! Tell me if Im wrong but these guy's do got it. 4 great musician in Indonesia work their way up into the rock scene in one band called The Dance Company. Not quite a dancer, not quite a company but with their background as the lead singer in top pop band do make people took them seriously. Perfect combination between Rock-and a hint of -nice RBT Ill have some-kind of music. From pop to rock, these daddy's surely gonna rock Indonesia's music industry with their first single Papa Rock n' Roll, and I promise you its just getting better..
