Dear Visitors,

I've covered quite a number of songs on my YouTube and I find it a little messy for you guys to look for your favorite pieces that I've covered. Moreover, I've received lots of requests on songs which I've already covered. Therefore, I've taken some time off to make shortcut, direct links sorted by genre, demographics, popularity, and partially alphabetical all in a Blog for your convenience. It is called Redefining Piano. 

The idea is simple. Most musicians play classical stuffs on piano, and mostly with notes. I play anything I like, anything you request, just simply, anything, including noise. The Piano, if you believe it, will play virtually anything. It is all in your imagination.

I will also continue to add really interesting articles and songs in my Redefining Piano blog and you may subscribe to it as a Google User or Blogger for updates. Also, kindly let me know if there are anything else you wish that I can put in there. Just click Contact Me and post over there. I'll reply.

Do not buy these no matter where you are!!!

There are many fake Flash Drives / Pen Drives in the market nowadays. These drives are equipped with special boards known as "Upgrade Boards" by these business people. The software in the boards is written in such way that it makes your computer detect it as a Flash Drives with the space that they wanted it to be, which they are actually not. Moreover, these Flash Drives are usually those unsold 64mb or 128mb drives from the past, remodeled, resold as new Flash Drives. Some are even given out FREE by companies with their logos embossed on them.

The most ridiculous ones that I've ever seen are 500gbs Flash Drives in the Chinese Computer Stores. The amazing thing is that most who purchase them in bulk and containers are people from the West.

Well, if you ever get one of these Flash Drives and saved your precious data in them. Consider them Gone.

Note : Buy your Flash Drives from reputable sources or those you're comfortable with.

The Sony Walkman NWZ-A845 / A846 was released in early January 0f 2010 and it came to our shores in Malaysia in Mid February. It is supposed to be the successor of the previous X1000 series Sony Walkman, which people always compare it to the great Cowon S9.

Well, you can find Digital Audio Players or Video Players in almost everywhere in the market, but to actually find one with great sound quality can be rather challenging. The Cowon S9 has been unrivalled for a very long period of time until the Sony X1000 series came out. Their sound quality is known to be better than sound produced with the top of the range Creative X-Fi soundcards.

However, due to the highly sophisticated Touch Screen interface of the Sony X1000 series Walkman, the price is highly sophisticated as well, which was their biggest weakness. The X1000 series also went a little out of focus by offering too many unnecessary functions to the player which can be offered in most popular cellphones today. They could do better if only they have focused on quality audio and video.

Now, we have the Sony NWZ-A845 / 6 series with the same sound quality as the X1000, awesome included in-ear earphones (my own is better though), a lot slimmer than the X1000 (still not able to compare to those from Apple), a clean interface, and most importantly, a much lower price.

Well, if you think that your Creative X-Fi Titanium Pro has blown you away. This will BLAST you off to the universe out there (provided if you have a decent headphones). Pair it up with The Ultimate Ears or  The Shure SE530 if you can afford.

To be honest with you, the supplied in-ear earphones are not really up to my high standards, but unless you're an audio enthusiast like me, this little in-ear earphones will blast away all your other headphones and earphones that you currently have.

April 1st 2010 - I was among the first 100 people in the line to enter the Sony Expo 2010. The first ten people were showered with a bunch of great gifts with include cash vouchers and gadgets. Those slightly behind, like me, did not receive much. But, it was a really great experience. The first few people totally deserve what they get for their efforts. The first ten people in the line waited for at least 15 hours each while the first in line, waited for more than 27 hours in front of the entrance. While waiting, I've also met many new friends and watched some magic shows. Among these fantastic people are two retirees, Mr. and Mrs. Chong, who shared with me their life experiences and they also gave me their cash vouchers.

My main purpose of visiting this exhibition - A State of The Art mp3 player with an Unrivalled Sound Quality

The Sound Quality of any music players or musical instruments is always my top priority. Since young, my ears have been exposed to a very high quality instrument, my piano. I can tell even if a single string among the three piano strings of higher piano notes has altered. In an mp3 player, I need such high sound quality so that I can listen to the clarity of the background music in order to play the same thing out on the piano, for your listening pleasure. Therefore, I will go for any audio players with the highest sound quality within my tight budget.

To me, this is not just a Digital Audio Player, but an Investment.
