'Bara Jiwa' by rock duo Azlan and Muzza is now a fan favourite after being selected as theme song for runaway hit movie 'Blood Brothers'

Local production 'Blood Brothers' is a runaway hit and is leading the pack in the Malaysian movie scene. And the movie is further heated with the incredible rock ballad 'Bara Jiwa' sung by Azlan Typewriter and Muzza Velvettones.
Ever since the song was officially announced as the theme-song for the action thriller 'Blood Brothers: Bara Naga', directed by Abhilash Chandra and Syafiq Yusof, 'Bara Jiwa' is now a big favourite with the music fans in the country.
Starring a stellar lineup of local talents – Sharnaaz Ahmad, Syafiq Kyle, Shukri Yahaya, Amelia Henderson, and many more – the film delves into the world of elite bodyguards, filled with betrayal, battles, and the testing of brotherhood bonds.
"Bara Jiwa" ignites the spirit with its poetic lyrics and deep, moving music, perfectly blending with the film's intense emotions and dramatic action.
A Story That Burns Bright – Revenge, Brotherhood & Sacrifice:
The film follows Ariff (Syafiq Kyle), a bodyguard who is framed and forced to seek the help of his long-lost brother, Jaki (Syazwan Zulkifly).
Hunted by his own former best friend, Ghaz (Sharnaaz Ahmad) – the leader of the elite bodyguard team once called the "Blood Brothers" – Ariff becomes entangled in an emotional and soul-shaking war of betrayal.
Aligned with this narrative, "Bara Jiwa" emerges as the inner voice of these characters, blazing with spirit, honor, and vengeance.
The chorus of the song, like 'Bara… Jiwa… Menyala…' ('Embers... Soul... Burning...'), echoes the unwavering spirit of those tested by broken trust.

"Bara Jiwa" has sparked a phenomenon on social media, amassing over 1.6 million views on TikTok in the first week alone.
Its growing popularity highlights the warm reception from fans who have been sharing their epic moments with the song.

(Video) Was Katy Perry Hit With Electric Shock During Recent Concert?

Katy Perry's 'Lifetimes Tour' has sparked criticism and concern from fans. Last month, the singer experienced a stage malfunction when the wires of an elevated butterfly prop she was riding on came loose, causing it to drop slightly. Thankfully, the pop star managed to hold on, avoiding what could have been a serious fall. This time, the singer has gone viral once again following another alleged on-stage mishap. A video circulating online shows her ascending from the stage, before she suddenly jolted and left many wondering if she had suffered from an electric shock from the surrounding props. Here's what happened: During her recent concert in Raleigh, North Carolina, a fan captured the moment Katy Perry ascended from the stage while performing 'Artificial'. As she entered an elevated set, the singer, who was portraying an AI robot, appeared to suddenly jerk uncontrollably. Many claimed that the songstress had been shocked by the surrounding prop wires from the set. Fans, and even non-fans, took to social media to express concern over the poor stage setup, noting that there have already been several instances where Katy has almost been injured on stage. Others, however, made light of the situation, joking that the nun who was once involved in a legal dispute with the star, and who tragically died in court during a post-judgment hearing, had come back to haunt her during the tour. Some fans suggested that Katy may not have suffered from an electric shock at all, but that there may be something wrong with her harness as she was ascending. This appears to be the most plausible explanation, as closer inspection of the video shows one of the wires catching on the elevated set before coming free, possibly causing the singer to jolt suddenly. She was even seen checking the left side of her harness with her hand immediately after it happened. Thankfully, Katy Perry was left unharmed. However, it is concerning that such incidents continue to occur during her tour. Perhaps it would be safer for her to remain on the ground for the rest of the shows, or, at the very least, ensure that stage crews carry out thorough safety inspections on all sets and props before showtime.

[Watch] Mat Rempits Race Past KLCC While Giving Tourists Live Commentary

Subscribe to our FREE The scene plays out like some bizarre cultural exchange program nobody signed up for. There's the tourist, phone out, trying to make sense of the motorcycle mayhem erupting in front of Malaysia's most prestigious address. And there's the Mat Rempit, casually providing live commentary while his crew turns Jalan Ampang into their personal racetrack. 'What's happening here?' the tourist asks, watching the chaos unfold. 'Mat Rempit,' comes the reply from a rider standing nearby, the words coming out slowly as he searches for the right English terms to explain this uniquely Malaysian phenomenon. The tourist keeps filming, clearly mesmerised by this impromptu street theatre. Behind the casual conversation, dozens of modified motorcycles are treating the KLCC stretch like their private circuit – roaring up the road in formation, hitting the turnaround, then thundering back down past the gleaming towers. Tourism Advisory: Mat Rempit Edition It's surreal-this casual cultural briefing happening while the subject matter roars past in real-time. Up and down, up and down, like some kind of motorised metronome keeping time to the weekend chaos. 'If you want to come to Malaysia, don't worry, this happens on weekends,' another rider adds, as if he's providing helpful tourism advice about when to expect the show. The tourist, still filming the endless parade of bikes, asks the obvious follow-up: 'Will this make people come to Malaysia?' The Mat Rempit pauses, considering the question while another wave of motorcycles roars past the towers. 'I don't think so,' he replies with refreshing honesty, then adds with a slight shrug, 'because sometimes people think this is a bit annoying.' 'Does everyone leave when police come?' the tourist asks next, clearly trying to understand the full dynamics of this weekend ritual. 'Modifying motorcycles is not allowed,' the Mat Rempit explains, his English careful but clear on this particular point. When KLCC Becomes Malaysia's Most Expensive Drag Strip And so, on Saturday and Sunday nights, the most expensive real estate in Malaysia becomes a free-for-all racetrack, complete with international spectators enjoying the immersive experience. The whole thing unfolds with an almost choreographed rhythm – explanation, roar of engines heading up, brief pause, roar of engines heading back down, more explanation. The Petronas Twin Towers stand there like silent witnesses to this weekly transformation of their front yard into Malaysia's most prestigious drag strip. No tourism brochure mentions this particular attraction, but judging by the tourists' reaction, it might be more memorable than the official sights. Rinse, repeat, all night long. One netizen commented with brutal honesty on the video. Just ignore them. They spent 95% of their salary for the bike and 5% for the family and future savings (if they have).

Malaysia's Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band to march onto the DFP stage this Merdeka Day

Music lovers will have the opportunity to witness a rare performance at Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS (DFP) in Kuala Lumpur when the Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band stages The Fortress Of Dreams, a full-length bagpipe concert on Aug 31 – making it a Merdeka Day to remember. The two-hour concert, with a 20-minute intermission, presents a bold fusion of Scottish piping with Malaysian and global instruments, creating a soundscape that unites tradition and innovation. Tripert Singh, chairman of the Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band, calls the show the realisation of a long-held ambition. 'This concert has been a dream of the band for many years – to one day perform in a prestigious venue. We began working towards it a year ago,' said Tripert in a recent interview. The performance will showcase collaborations with instruments including the Chinese tanggu (a traditional barrel drum), the Indian urumi (a double-headed hourglass drum), the Malay gamelan, and the Irish flute. 'They add a distinctly Malaysian spice to the Scottish dish. Over the years, we've experimented with many combinations of instruments and found that these few bring tremendous impact to a bagpipe performance,' he said. From community roots The Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band was founded in 1986 by brothers Sukdev Singh and Harvinder Singh as a community initiative in Kuala Lumpur to bring music, discipline and camaraderie to young people. From its early beginnings, the ensemble has grown into a 40-member band, bringing together students as young as 11 and professionals up to 40 – now recognised as the world's largest Sikh bagpipe band. 'The Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band Malaysia was established by two brothers who wanted to create a place with activities and support services that would cater to the community through music,' said Tripert.

Recruitment today remains systematic, with applicants undergoing interviews and practical exams before being admitted. Weekly training sessions are held every Saturday at Sri Dasmesh International School, supported by a structured mentorship system. 'The band has multiple levels of mentorship running simultaneously. Online training programmes have been developed for new recruits to allow them to progress at their own time at home. They then have mentors in the band who guide them through this content. They also have a section head in each section who monitors and supports their progress. This frees the senior team to focus on developing themselves and the band,' explained Tripert. The band's commitment to discipline and growth has also led to international triumphs, most notably in 2019 when it became the first and only Asian band to win the World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow, Scotland. 'The bagpipe is a war instrument. It is very commanding. A single bagpipe is powerful enough to rally thousands. It was a common instrument on the battlefield in both the great wars. As such, we picked this instrument as we felt it fit our identity the best. We've grown great respect and passion for it and have worked very hard to keep it alive and growing in Malaysia,' said Tripert. An important milestone 'Over the years we've built a highly competitive mindset. Competitions demand discipline and precision, but a concert offers freedom – a chance to be creative, to experiment, and to express what we love,' said Tripert. While competitions demand discipline, the upcoming concert has given the band space to explore creativity. Tripert (right) says it has taken a year of planning and rehearsals to prepare for the DFP concert. Photo: Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band Audiences can expect original compositions alongside traditional Scottish pieces, woven together with narrative storytelling that reflects the band's journey and values. "We have a remarkable story to tell. Sikhs from Malaysia mastering the Scottish bagpipe – it's a unique mix. Our goal has always been to share that story through music, and this concert is our way of doing so,' he added. The evening will also feature guest appearances and tributes celebrating the band's legacy and its role in promoting cultural harmony. 'Dewan Filharmonik is Malaysia's most prestigious stage, reserved for the creme de la creme. Just like winning the World Pipe Band Championships, performing here has always been among our greatest ambitions,' said Tripert. As Malaysia celebrates its 68th year of Merdeka, The Fortress Of Dreams stands as more than a concert – it carries a message of inspiration. 'The stage will be filled with young Malaysians striving to make their mark on the world. We hope it shows them that there are no limits, except those we set for ourselves,' concluded Tripert. Sri Dasmesh Pipe Band's The Fortress Of Dreams is set to play at Dewan Filharmonik Petronas in Kuala Lumpur on Aug 31. More info here.
