A Girl's Guide to Surviving FMFA 2014!

Hey everyone! With Future Music Festival Asia 2014 being less than 5 days away, I just like to share with you some of the essential items for you to survive at FMFA 2014!

1. ID & Cash

The most important item to bring is your id as this event is for people aged 18 & above! Even though you are above the age limit, they still check for security purpose.

Bring sufficient cash to spend on F&B because the price of the items is much higher than what you normally purchase. A can of beer would be about RM15 and, drinks or a bottle of water will be approximately sold at RM5. Food wise, it will probably cost between RM8-RM20 depending on what you order.

2. Sunnies

With sun rays and laser lights firing away, sunnies will bring comfort to your eyes.

3. Sunblock
While enjoying the music festival, you wouldn't want to get sunburn especially with the blazing sun and hot weather in Malaysia.

4. Power Bank

Taking countless photos with your pals and uploading them to the gazillion social media platform will definitely drain your phone battery. Power bank will come in handy especially towards the end of the concert when battery is low, where you need to contact your friends or post more stuff online about your day at FMFA 2014 ;P

5. Comfortable Shoes

Since it is a rave party, wearing heels is just plain suicide. Especially when you're walking on uneven grounds, jumping to the music and walking a distance to each stage and to the parking, a comfy pair of shoes or flats will suffice.

6. Portable Mini Fan

The weather has been crazy hot for the past few weeks and a mini fan will be a great idea to take away some of the heat.

7. Water

Since you can't bring in beverages to the venue, you can only purchase them on festival grounds. Remember to drink more water to stay hydrated!

8. Tissue / Wet Tissue / Towel
Tissue - When you head to the toilet.
Wet tissue - If you dislike feeling sticky.
Towel - Especially after the festival, you'll be drenched in sweat. You wouldn't want to dirty your car right? Place a towel on the car seat!

9. FMFA Mobile App
Don't forget to download the FMFA mobile app where you can check the set timing and stage allocation for your favourite acts! If you find it too much of a hassle, just print screen the set list and save it on your phone ;)

10. Others
Raincoat, waterproof bag for phone, hand sanitizer, eye drop and floral headband.

What is your FMFA 2014 survival kit?
See you there! :D

Future Music Festival Asia 2014 Full Line Up Revealed!

Future Music Festival Asia, the largest music festival in South East Asia is back in 2014! Instead of the usual two day festival, this year it is extended into three whole days! This will be beyond epic as the line up this year is really awesome line. I have been to FMFA 2012 & 2013 and will definitely not miss out on FMFA 2014!

Thanks to Manoah, I got to attend the Future Music Festival Asia (FMFA) 2014 full artists line up announcement last week at The View in G Tower Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Cocktails and Asahi were served throughout the event. The setup of the venue was really suiting to their safari theme with animal posters, paw prints on the floor and ambience music which transformed the place into a jungle like atmosphere.

Welcome note by Ryan Matjeraie.

Director of Livescape Asia, Iqbal Ameer giving a short speech to start off the press conference.

Memento was also given to FMFA 2014 sponsors to thank them for their support. The sponsors are Asahi Super Dry, Chivas Regal, Evian, Red Bull, iDarts, Dr Martens, Corntoz, Airbnb, KakaoTalk, Zalora, MyTeksi and Uber. 

Moving on, the Future Music Festival Asia 2014 mobile app was presented by Iqbal. With this mobile app, users are able to check the schedule and line up for the day, purchase tickets, look at the venue map and also FMFA radio where you get to listen to the artist's tracks! Compared to the FMFA 2013 mobile app, there are more features in this one. I believe the interface will be much smoother :) It will be out sometime this week or next. Can't wait to download it!

Finally it is down to the exciting moment where everyone is waiting for. The second phase line up announcement! Click to watch the video below ;)

With headliners like Deadmau5 and Armin Van Buuren for the first two days, everyone screamed when Pharrell Williams was announced was Day 3! The other acts are Chase and Status, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Rudimental, Tinie Tempah, Yuna and many more! I'm really curious on what Yuna has to offer on stage since FMFA is mostly a rave. But nonetheless, I really look forward to her set!

Check out the full line up for FMFA 2014!

Future Music Festival Asia will be held from March 13 until March 15 at Bukit Jalil National Stadium. The first and second release of FMFA tickets are already sold out. Hurry up and get your tickets to not miss out on this awesome music festival!

Future Music Festival Asia 2013

 This year, Future Music Festival Asia is back with 2 whole days of fun and music! 2 days of partying, I felt like a zombie after. Even after Day 1, I felt reluctant to move from my bed but awesome bands like Temper Trap managed to keep my energy up!

 Due to the jam, it took me 3 hours to reach Sepang on FMFA Day 1. Missed out on Cosmic Gate's set T_T

The road to the parking was confusing and congested. Parked towards the end and luckily the free bus was there on time to send us to the main entrance if not, we'll be walking forever! Arrived in time for Armin and the crowd was crazy!

Stayed for Aly & Fila's set for half an hour before making a move as we wanted to catch the last bus to our car. However, none was seen. So we had to walk for an hour to the car. Not that I mind, the cloud was clear and stars were lovely, but my friend's leg was suffering from the long walk.

FMFA Day 2

Reached in time for Temper Trap! Dougy Mandagi's voice was pure awesome! Closed my eyes a few times just to let the music sink in :D Even better was the sunset while Temper Trap was performing.

Lovely sunset :)

 Went for Rita Ora but the sound system was pretty bad  D: Sound went off twice and didn't really do justice to her voice.

Out of focus picture, but I love the feeling it gives out. Maybe it's just me :P Haha...

 Jumping along to Psy's Gangnam Style. It was his last performance for Gangnam Style before releasing his new single in April.

 Went to catch Angger Dimas too :)

 Listening to They Will Kill Us All while waiting for Bloc Party

Fireworks at 12AM

The set up for Bloc Party was so long D: Almost an hour. So we went to catch Prodigy instead.

That's all for my adventure in FMFA 2013! :)
