  1. THE KOKO ASIA LAUNCH PARTY June 5th 2009 – Zouk @ Kuala Lumpur

  2. THE HYPE • Guaranteed to become the soundtrack to your weekend debauchery , the legendary KOKO has spreads its wings and flew East to take its night of counter culture shenanigans to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.With one of the most seductive line ups to ever hit BarSonic, KOKO Asia was proud to present THE STANDARDS in their Malaysian debut. Renowned for their in your face sets and electrifying performances The Standards have been dubbed the boys to call to smash up your dance floor and get the weekend started with a pounding of your ear drums and a kick to the proverbials.For the exclusive launch of CLUB KOKO, we flew in SIMON SUBSONIC, the resident KOKO UK DJ who is currently supporting Placebo on their UK tour. Simon has played alongside the likes of the Arctic Monkeys, Gossip, Babyshambles and MGMT and regularly destroys crowds of 10,000 strong at festivals in the UK.

  3. THE HYPE • What would your Friday night be without your usual dose of TWILIGHT ACTION GIRL pandemonium? Your local indie DJ’s rocked their trademark brand of action, guaranteeing that everybody had their dancing shoes well and truly tied.We also had KL indie rockers DESERTERS playing brand new tracks from their debut LP ‘Goodbye Oblivion’ in another exclusive for KOKO Asia as they demonstrated all the blood, sweat and tears lost in the recording studio .Piecing the whole night together was KOKO Asia’s very own JOHNNY MAYO who dished out his usual trade of guitar dominated indie canticles and slamming electro beats to get the party started. • We brought you the latest indie anthems, jacking electro beats and alternative tunes over 6 hours of pure, unrivalled dance floor mayhem. • KOKO HAS LANDED…

  4. ATTRACTING THE EARLY BIRDS AIR ASIA KOKO WEEKENDER Everyone who entered CLUB KOKO before 10pm was entered into a lucky draw for a trip for two to KOKO in London, including 2 nights stay (one room twin or double), tour round KOKO, VIP guest passes and exclusive backstage access. The trip is scheduled for December as to allow the lucky winners to take in some Xmas shopping. KOKO will also arrange for a lunch at one of our other London outlets. The competition winner Jonathan was chosen by our MC for the night Asha Gill.

  5. THE AIR ASIA FLYER

  6. ASHA GILL MC “What a night! The work, planning, sweat, blood and tears that have gone into bringing KOKO to Asia were truly worth it for those five hours of madness. I cant see how it could have been any better. KOKO is more than just a night out, it’s a scene, a brand, something special. I thought that was what we brought tonight.”

  7. MATT SMITH The Standards “That could only be described as one of the defining moments of The Standards. Playing something the like the KOKO Asia launch is the dream of many musicians here and it was an honor and a pleasure to headline the first. Being a London boy I know all about the significance of KOKO. It still hasn’t sunk in.”

  8. DESERTERS KL indie heavyweights Deserters had the privilege of being the first band to rock KOKO Asia. It was a special show from Zack Yusof and co, and to amplify the importance of CLUB KOKO, Deserters played an exclusive sneak preview from their second studio album ‘Goodbye Oblivion’ - another KOKO first.

  9. ZACK YUSOF Deserters "Hell yeah!! You can blame it on the drinks but for me, the atmosphere was fantastic, hugely celebratory, even almost New Year's Eve-like at some points. Highlights? Rocking the inaugural Club Koko stage, singing along to Town Called Malice with The Standards and Mind The Gap, being trapped on the dance floor by loads of people dancing, the Karma Police singalong, slamming tequila with some new, some old friends, rediscovering my love for early Arcade Fire... here's to the next one!!!"

  10. SIMON SUBSONIC “What an atmosphere! The KOKO Asia boys have talked for a long time about doing something special and that certainly was. The buzz, the music, the crowd and the singalongs. I had no idea how well a concept like KOKO would cross borders until tonight. That was something special.” KOKO UK DJ

  11. JOHNNY MAYO KOKO Asia DJ “That has to be the best night I have ever played. We all put months of work into that night and I could not be happier with the reaction. Being a BarSonic regular I can honestly say that that was one of the best nights that club has ever seen….until the next CLUB KOKO of course.”

  12. MARLZ "I didn't really know much about KOKO Asia or Club KOKO. So I went to BarSonic without much expectations and was stoked that I got more than I bargained for. I felt good vibes: the music was energetic, the bands were just great and the crowd amazing. Personally, I think bringing down regional bands and getting local ones to perform is a brilliant way to expose non-commercial indie musicians to ‘noobs’ like me. I’m happy to say that for the first ever KOKO Asia, I was there" Music Journalist for JUNK Magazine

  13. SHAKILA RAJENDRA Clubber / Blogger “That was what KL has been waiting for! Asia needs you KOKO! I’ve never had a night like it KL. From the second we walked in we could tell it was going to be a special night. The atmosphere was electric.”

  14. PAUL DEAKIN Hedonist “Oh my days! Where did that come from? Unbelievable! I'm a KOKO regular in Malaysia on holiday and had no idea they were up to this. When we spotted a flyer I admit admit I was dubious at first, I thought an imitation was on the cards, but the tunes, the people, the party. It was KOKO. I have been travelling for 4 months now and that was the best night out by far.”

  15. ANEELA MIRZA Clubber “The best indie / electro night KL has seen yet.”
