Animenia2024 - Parallel Universes: ACG Music Festival Press Conference (17/07/2024)
GROUNDBREAKING ANIMENIA TO PUSH BOUNDARIES WITH THE BIGGEST ACG MUSIC FESTIVAL!
MusicWerks Studio is thrilled to announce Animenia, a groundbreaking music festival that promises to captivate audiences and push the boundaries of orchestral performances. Animenia 2024, expected to be an unforgettable and one-of-a-kind musical experience is being staged at Tropicana Gardens Mall Convention Centre on the 27th of July 2024.
This was announced by Animenia founder and accomplished Malaysian songwriter & producer Sharon Paul, at a press conference and media preview showcase held at the GSC Cinema, Tropicana Gardens Mall, on 17th July 2024.
The main event will feature a fusion orchestra encompassing an extraordinary blend of classical orchestration and contemporary sounds, creating a vibrant and dynamic musical experience for all anime music lovers.
Raja Farouk Live (RFL) — a 30-piece orchestra composed of up-and-coming musicians from diverse musical backgrounds in the local anime, cosplay, and gaming scene — will take centre stage to perform an eclectic mix of compositions that seamlessly bridges the divide between traditional and modern instruments, vibrantly re-imagining the anime and games music we know and love. Raja Farouk Live will feature the vocal talents of Afir, Leena, Binyun, Delphine, Kaoru, Kazuki, MinRi, Jeii, Rina-Hime, Zie Aun, Fate Feather, Tato Queen, Yonlynn and Erul Samah.
Besides orchestral performances, this concert will also feature six J-Rock Tamashi bands during the day. The bands that will be performing include L.E.S.S., Tabako Neko, Grand Endeavour, Za Shinsei, Moshi Hoshi and Ignight.
Festival goers can also participate in a host of fun activities including a Wasabi Challenge presented by Sakae Sushi, a kids cosplay competition, an ACG singing competition, and explore the merchandise, arts and crafts booths from various local vendors and creators.
"We are excited to bring this innovative and exhilarating music format to this community," expressed Paul, the owner of MusicWerks Studio, the organisers of the much-heralded festival.
"Animenia represents the future of anime music, where diverse genres and styles come together to create something truly unique and inspiring. We believe these performances will leave a lasting impression on all who attend," she added.
One of the highlights of the music festival is the use of innovative arrangements in their musical presentations. Audiences can experience re-imagined classics alongside brand new compositions, all performed with a fusion twist that highlights the versatility and creativity of the orchestra such as the inclusion of traditional instruments such as Er-Hu and Gu-Zheng in an orchestral ensemble.
The festival also focuses on empowering local musicians: The fusion orchestra boasts a lineup of talented musicians who are homegrown musicians within the anime, cosplay, and gaming community itself, bringing together a wealth of experience and passion for musical experimentation.
The event will incorporate state-of-the-art production to feature crisp, clear sound and exciting lighting design, enhancing the overall experience and immersing the audience in the performances.
The music festival will also see Sharon Paul joining the orchestra for an unforgettable collaboration.
The well-attended press conference was followed by a preview showcase by well-known anisong singers MinRi, Rina-Hime and Tato Queen, performing Akuma No Ko from Attack of the Titans and Gunjou, a song inspired by Tsubasa Yamaguchi’s manga Blue Period.
Also performing during the preview showcase was Malaysian JRock band Za Shinsei, who performed Nandemonaiya from the anime Kimi no Na Wa and Pretender, a hit song by Japanese pop rock band Official Hige Dandism.
