The Sound
of Azmi Hassan

A Life Steeped in Sound

Music has the power to transport us to another time and place. It was always the one reprieve I sought whenever things got rough. My journey in life has been a long and arduous one, with too many wrong turns.
I think I have now found the right track and I am pursuing it with verve. Music will be my choice of vice then. After I was done with my route of many windy and wrong roads, I let Music anchor me back to reality and reconnected. I was fortunate to have obtained a sponsorship to pursue a higher education in Audio Engineering and Production. I chose this field of study because it was a natural progression (after song creation) to take a raw piece of melody and lyrics and breathe life into it such that it transforms into a song and also because the certification might see me through the twilight years.
If you are like me, have been round the block more than a couple times and have a hard time speaking what's in the heart, then take a seat and allow me to sing it for you in song. I know how hard it gets sometimes with so much to say and the awkwardness in between.
I write a modest few songs too, nothing linguistically fancy or witty. Just simple fuss-free heartfelt observations on my life thus far.
I Won't Give Up / Titanium

A show I did for the YR Conference. Truly blessed that these organizations always advocate second chances and fight the hard fight for those who have fallen off the straight and narrow path. Always appreciative that they continue to engage me to shoulder the cause and also to croak at my loudest! Heh!

First time performing at such an event and the vibe was honest and real from the audience. Thank you Bedok CC!

Such a joy to be performing for such a sombre profession. Another first for me to see judges, prosecutors, legal advisers, drafters of law and various administrators out of their work "suits". Likely the proudest moment when my manager managed to wrangle a personal meet-up with PM Lee Hsien Loong, I took a photo with him to show the folks back home. They were pleased as punch! :) WoooWheeee!
Thank you AGC for the opportunity!
