RAMAYAN is a pop rock band coming all the way from Sungai Buloh, Malaysia. They consist of Pi'e, Amin Jali, Omar Saifuddin, Nadzrul and Naquiyuddin, or Que. The vocalist Pi'e is actually the son of M. Nasir, our local legend. I bought their self-titled EP last month and I noticed that they were actually doing live recording. Correct me if I'm wrong. I love live record. You can really hear them as if you're in the room with them. What unique about them to me is their sound. So "thrilling" if I must say. By thrilling, I don't mean it as if it was scary, it was like watching a detective solving mystery cases kind of sound. So intriguing. Ah! Fascinating! I don't know how to explain it. The songs are all written in Nusantara. So poetic and so beautiful. My two most favorite tracks out of their EP are, "Oh Dewiku" and "Sepintas Sastera Hati". When I first heard "Sepintas Sastera Hati", I was hooked instantly. So I kept browsing through their songs and I found "Oh Dewiku" which has been my anthem for quite so long now. I love his the sound of their guitar, the groove of the bass, and of course the vocals. M Nasir is one proud dad. I hope I am able to watch them live someday.
