After traveling to various corners of the world and playing to a sold-out show at the Esplanade few months back, SYNDICATE.SG celebrate their anniversary where it all began 2 years ago: Home Club.

With the club as a canvas, resident visual artist Brandon Tay, collaborates with internationally acclaimed design collective, Phunk Studio, to transform the space into a visual playground.

The traditional SYNDICATE visual wall will be filled with collaborative content from the 2 artists as they reinterpret, remix and revisualize each other’s work. A special installation that charts out the SYNDICATE journey so far will also be unveiled to commemorate the anniversary. There is a third surprise piece which they have been working on and are tight-lipped about. You’ll just have to be there to find out more.

Music is not taking a back seat as the line-up features both seasoned players and fresh names from the local scene. The luminaries which need no introduction are Funk Bast*rd,MC Masterpiece and KoFlow with a special live set. It will also be a homecoming gig for Singapore’s own bass general, Vortex, who has been away for sometime. Kiat represents the SYNDICATE stable with his staple beats and bass.

Meanwhile, making their SYNDICATE debut will be Diphasic, who was featured in the first ever Beat Invitational, and recent FFF Girl DJ Bootcamp graduate, Saigon Kat.

Proving that Singapore still has an inexhaustible list of budding bedroom producers, the fifth Beat Invitational is set to unearth another round of beatific gems. Butterfly Imprint, ILOH:SHIX, LoopTape, The Architek and Darren Dubwise will be unleashing works that cut across all genres.

See you this Saturday!

Jay-One & Maddie collaborates on a sideproject called HeartFelt. With Rauzan behind the production, they embark on a  soulful journey of heartfelt lyrics over easy listening music. Their first song "SmallTalk" features the soulful voice of Firwan Johan. Enjoy The HeartFelt.  


Title: SmallTalk ft. Firwan Johan
Artist: HeartFelt (Jay-One & Maddie)
Produced by: Rauzan Rahman (Trytoplay)
Written by: Jay One, Maddie & Rauzan Rahman
Recorded & Mixed by: Rauzan Rahman

[Chorus - Firwan Johan]
When I looked in your eyes,
you wanted me to stay,
I know that you could be mine,
What's left is just the small talk.

[Verse 1 - Jay-One]
i sense her differ/start to wonder why the distance
no calls no txt/none with no reasons
sorry for my ways/pushy and persistent
its hard to hang back when the love you start to question
dont you find me of use
used to sort our problems/nip th ebud and defuse
times theyre a changing/advances you refuse
its hard to understand/just cant picture the ruse
sad to recollect whats past/in presently
we laughed and we confide/shared thoughts they were aplenty
whats the problem wont you tell me
hand over my shoes/take my view and oversee
used to hv it good/so curious how we got here
only source of knowledge/are the tweets that you tinker
and all i do is linger
how could we say forever/if i see you next to never?

[Verse 2 - Maddie]
Now all we have is small talks its kinda sad
Used to go on for hours bout things we had
How did it turn bad, everything we used to have
When we're eye to eye, the tune is kinda deaf
We're running outta words for conversations
We used to complete each other's sentences
I guess our words ran away along emotions
Now we can't even walk on a simple notion
It's just hi bye, and really nothing more
There'll be another guy, and I'll be nothing more
I'm staring at my phone hoping you'd call
But even if you do what'd we say afterall
After all that we been through there's nothings left to say
After all we put into there's nothing left to gain
So when you walk away, I'll just watch you go
I wont say a word, what can I say anymore

[Chorus - Firwan Johan]
When I looked in your eyes,
you wanted me to stay,
I know that you could be mine,
What's left is just the small talk.

Enjoy the HeartFelt.
