This blog is established in the late 2008 with the intention to promote and facilitate the DIY Hardcore Punk (and any DIY music genre, really) in the continent of Borneo, split into three by political borders bordering Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei. It is our hope that this blog would function as a platform, a bulletin and a means of communications for all the scenes and individuals spread in this part of the world. Having said that, this blog is non-partisan and would like to communicate with all the bands out there, all over the world to communicate with us. It is a sort of our method to claim our existence in the global punkosphere.
Please get in touch with us! We would like to host any bands out there on our couches or floors at our home! The fact remain that there has already been a strong DIY Hardcore Punk/anarchist/activist network that has already been established. Take this blog as an extension to share with other friends who are not fortunate enough to have such network, so that all of us could benefit from it.
This blog is a community-based blog. We welcome all sorts of contribution to make this blog happen. This blog is run by a crew of odd people doing all sorts of odd jobs with one thing in mind: to see a more fertile scene happening here. By the punks for the punks.
Leave a comment on any of the post, or email us at: midinrecords@gmail.com should there be any inquiries, comments, feedbacks, notifications of gigs and events happening in Borneo.
No homophobic, sexist, racist, non-DIY stuffs, CDs, events, merchandises would be accomodated. I’m sorry but this is not the channel for those stuffs!
Thank you.
i love the d.i.y punk spirit going on here. i’m from Singapore. looking to network with as many organisers with the ideology of D.i.Y just as Ian Mackaye had established it.. anyways, drop me an email, if it’s ever possible to liase a gig over there with you guys.. thanks!
It’s always possible to have someone to hook you up. You can drop me an email at agentprovo@gmail.com when you guys have a rough plan to travel here. Cheerios.
Dear Mr. Asparagus,
I Would Like To Say I Am Very I’m Impressed At What You Have Established Here. Before Starting Revolution On Motion, We Had Taken Your Blog As A Standard To Us. We Learn A Lot From This Blog and We Are Truly Inspired To Start Our Own Blog Based In The Scenes Of Sabah. We Hope To Collaborate With Borneo DIY Hardcore Punk Someday. We Would Like To Thank You Also For Featuring Us In Yoour Blogroll.
Cheers,
Michael Junior.
Revolution On Motion!
No problem dude!
I don’t see anything impressive on my side here, updates on gigs are just what I have been doing so far. I really hope to do something beyond in the future when I am back there at Borneo. Glad that you find this blog useful, kudos on the attempt of starting your own. Collaborations are always possible.
Hope to see you in the moshpit, someday.
