Now, everyone has their own way to deal with a breakup. We all mope, drowning in self-pity and tubs of ice cream. Some go onto social media and share depressing or incredibly sulky and angry posts, some stay in and play angst-filled music with a glass of wine, and some people channel their hurt into their craft, creating beauty from pain: Taylor Swift and Adele come to mind when it comes to making millions art from breakups. DANamic.ORG spoke to Dexter Choo, a new name in Singapore’s local music scene. We caught up with him as he rides on the release of…

It’s been days since Neck Deep last graced our nation with everything that isn’t graceful to begin with – loud guitars, punk tunes, lots of moshing and crowdsurfing.

One of the first major local releases of 2016 comes from a promising, new face with a voice that will cement itself in the hearts of many. At just 22, Jude Young has already made some major appearances, performing at events such as Esplanade’s Yfest 2013 and the Noise Singapore 2014 Festival Exhibition. His honest songs are tinged with a youthful exuberance (much like the man himself) that is sure to leave an indelible mark on the local music scene.

With just 3 singles made available online, midst have been raising a delicate storm with their exquisite offerings. Combining the chordal sensibilities of a baroque choral piece with the introspection of painfully self-aware indie artists, the 3-piece band are blessedly releasing their first body of work in an EP – arriving 23rd January 2016. Their debut single, “Captivate” ,certainly captivated audiences (sorry, we couldn’t resist) here and abroad. Released just last September, the track has garnered over 5,000 plays on YouTube – a laudable feat for a fresh-faced local act. Across what we’ve heard so far, midst’s atmospheric, “yoga retreat soundtrack” vibe…

British actor Alan Rickman has passed away from cancer, aged 69. Remembered for a variety of iconic roles over a 30-year career, his multi-generational appeal is testament to his talent for playing the villain in many memorable roles. From embodying Bruce Willis‘ adversary in 1988’s “Die Hard” to his singular performance as the misunderstood Professor Snape in the “Harry Potter” series, even the most nonchalant moviegoer would no doubt have a vivid recollection of his work. DANamic.ORG writer and Potterhead Hannah Halim has compiled a list of dedications on the Internet from the Harry Potter fandom and beyond. http://feellng.tumblr.com/post/137280110732/when-im-80-years-old-and-sitting-in-my-rocking “He was probably the bravest…
