SHAKE-X7D

(SINGAPORE, 18 June 2015) – Work hard and party even harder with the new SHAKE series Mini Hi-Fi Systems from Sony, bound to satisfy the needs of music lovers and party goers alike. These powerful home audio systems – SHAKE-X7D and SHAKE-X3D – let you turn up the music and start grooving to the beat right at the comfort of home, without the hassle of squeezing inside clubs. 

These Mini Hi-Fi Systems come with the powerful Smart High Power technology which channels sound through a specific sound path to increase acoustic pressure and create a clear and full bass. The sound pressure horn enables them to present soul-shaking beats that can really be felt as you sway along with the tunes. Furthermore, while sound comes out powerful and intense, they do not use up much electricity as they possess power-saving technologies to conserve energy.

Additionally, DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) up-scales compressed digital music files by restoring the high and low-range sound lost in the compression process, while ClearAudio+™ optimises playback for all your tracks. The end results are sounds that are so verbally rich and brilliantly clear, you can hear more in every track.

The new home audio models also come with features that will keep the crowd on their feet regardless of the songs being played. Get creative with DJ Effects – just mix your tunes around to hype up the party if you think it’s dying down. Separately, Party Chain is another feature that lets your Hi-Fi Systems connect with more devices via audio cables to create an even bigger sound for an even bigger gathering. 

The new Hi-Fi Systems also feature Bluetooth® and NFC capabilities, so with just one single touch of your Bluetooth® and NFC-enabled devices, you can immediately start streaming your favourite playlists wirelessly without any hassles! You can also download the SongPal™ Mobile App to browse your playlists and control the sound settings wirelessly via your smart devices – perfect for occasions when you find it hard to walk past the crowded space to reach the home audio systems.

The new SHAKE-X7D and SHAKE-X3D Mini Hi-Fi Systems from Sony will be available at selected Sony Stores and Sony authorised dealers from end July onwards, at a recommended retail price of S$1,299 and S$999, respectively.

Bringing back the old memories of old Singapore with the musical Great World Cabaret, Let’s Bo Bo Cha Cha!

Indeed, this musical brings us back to our beloved old Singapore entertainment in the 1960s. Those who have fond memories of cabaret shows, will remember them at the three amusement parks ( Great World, New World and Gay World ) in Singapore. Great World Cabaret probably base on the New World Amusement Park where they have cabaret show featuring Rose Chan, Taxi Girls Mat Tarzan etc.

As for myself, my memories of Great World Amusement Park was simply having a fun game of shooting after a sumptuous dinner with family and staff of my Dad company during every Chinese New Year.

The musical is created by the talented Selena Tan from Dream Academy Productions and directed by George Chan. George Chan’s father used to sing in clubs in another amusement park, Gay World. As a child, he would make frequent trips to these amusement parks.

Well known comedian such as Mark Lee, Hossan Leong, Sebastian Tan, Judee Tan will be guest stars in the musical on certain dates of the show. The other stars include Shane Marrjuki, Seong Hui Xuan, JC Sum etc.

Synopsis

An old security guard closes up a museum exhibit for the night. The exhibit evokes long forgotten memories of his brightest moments as a host of Singapore’s most famous nightclub, the Great World Cabaret.

His memories take centre stage as the cabaret comes to life. Dancing girls, acrobats from all over the world, a magician, amazing singers and more fill the stage. Set against this loud and colourful backdrop, he meets the girl of his dreams.

At the climax of the cabaret show, his memories start to fade and he finds himself back at the museum, unsure if time had really gone backwards or if it was nothing more than an old man’s daydream.

Review

If you enjoy listening to good songs, you will not be disappointed with this musical.   The talk show by Mark Lee was comical and lively. The acrobatic act from Qing Dao Acrobatic Troupe and Drunken Sailors act were simply amazing. The magic show by JC Sum helps us to recall the usual magic show of yester years. Overall, the musical was fun and entertaining and the dances were well choreographed. Don't miss out this nostalgic musical. 

The show will be on from 19 Feb to 17 Mar 2015. It is rated as PG13.
