OLD PAPER Formed on December 10 2005. Old Paper became more known after we join a compilations album called 24 jam hits vol.2 with our danceable track. In early of 2008 invited a trumpet player to play a rudimentary part of brass at stage, just to make sure that the crowd filled the dance floor and do the dance all around. On September 2009 we launch our single called Rockin Java at Bintang Cafe Jogjakarta, when we do a little tour to Jogjakarta and Salatiga. In this three tracks album we put Nona, Durjana, and Bang Bing Beng Blues. We baptized it as a collectible album cause we just makes 12 copy of them. On December 10 2009 we launch our EP called Lets Do The Dance! at BB's Bar Jakarta to cellebrate our 4th anniversary. An six tracks album with three new songs (Blue Blue Love, A Go Go, Waiting Train). Buy our EP now and hear the songs which makes you gonna dance.. See you at stage old friends, cheers!.

DZEEK Dzeek (formerly known as d'zeek) are an alternative rock band from Jakarta , Indonesia . The band is composed of Hersubkhan Erdien (drums), Faeruz Putranta (bass guitar, backing vocals), Ichsan Tirtana (guitar), Amirudin (lead guitar), and Imam Ghazali (lead vocals, guitar). Since 2003, dzeek have released an album and a mini album. They first release, "Terang" (in english : "Bright") in 2003 with the single "Terang" and drawn attentions from the country's music scene. The band underwent a long hiatus before returning in 2007 with a mini album "The Oslo Report", they continued to play in several shows until mid 2008, when they found Imam through a friend to replace JD. The year 2009 sees the rebirth of the band as they released only their self-titled second full-length album. It contains 13 new songs both in Bahasa and English. The first single "Terlihat" receives warm and comfortable reception thus resulting heavy rotations in the country's top radio stations. The band now are enduring non-stop promotion around Jakarta which soon followed by promotions in other cities across Indonesia. South Asia tour dates also included in the plan.

Everybody Loves Irene EVERYBODY LOVES IRENE was born in 1998. It all started with a band named Gooton, consisting Yudhi Arfani (guitar), Dimas Anindityo (bass), and Mulyadi Triharsono (drum) when they were only in junior high school! All three grew to become friends in the same scene that popped up several britpops gigs, popular in Jakarta at that time. However, the band went without permanent vocalist. After some time, in 2001 the boys met Irene Yohanna, a girl with remarkable voice. Her voice trully made a break. All the boys loved it. Even more, everybody loves Irene! This in fact is the exact sentence that became the name of the band EVERYBODY LOVES IRENE. She soon became the main icon of this band.

With spare-backing tracks and emotional yet wrenching vocal, EVERYBODY LOVES IRENE play music for times when ecstasy wears off and the tingle becomes a chill. It’s a dance noir for those too world-weary to move. Their music quality got even more enriched when Aulia Naratama (synthetizer) joined the band. This is the last, perfect and solid format for the band to produce new, great songs like Memento Mori, Gravity Always Win, Try Try Try, The Lullaby Show, and the list goes on.
