TypeWriter

Voices: Before We Get Old is a documentary series by Viddsee. In Episode 2, musician and filmmaker Yee Chang Kang (The Ordinary People, Typewriter) recounts the history of alternative music in Singapore, and reflects on the significance of The Substation, Singapore’s first independent arts centre.

For those who missed the live stream, here’s the video on YouTube. Songs in The Key Of Home was a live stream series organised by Bani Rahman and The Basement Studio. TypeWriter performed an acoustic set as a trio (Chang Kang, Alan and Patrick) on 19 November 2020.

Here’s wishing everyone out there a happy 2021 and for those who celebrate the Lunar New Year, good health and prosperity to you! We couldn’t play any live shows last year and only did one live stream gig in 2020, which was a different type of experience and pretty good fun. We hope to finish up recording our EP by the middle of the year. Stay safe. More to come…

Our new single, “Your Eyes Catch Light”, is out on Spotify today. Happy Valentine’s Day peeps!

 

Hot off the oven! We’re excited about our upcoming EP, which should be out in 2020. Here’s the first preview from the upcoming “The Golden Mile” EP. It’s called “Your Eyes Catch Light”. We’ll be performing this song live for the first this Friday at the Esplanade Outdoor Theatre. TypeWriter will be playing three 45-minute sets, at 7:15pm, 8:30pm and 9:45pm. Hope to see you there! This video will be removed on 31 December 2019. We’ll release the finalised mix and video on 14 February 2020. Watch for it!

We’ve ran out of vinyl copies of our EP, “What You’re Feeling Is Not Enough”, on our end. Whatever is left in the stores is all there is. We’ve only made a limited 100 copies for sale to the public. Once they’re gone, that’s it! The record is available at Roxy Records & Trading, The Analog Vault, The Barbershop @ The Panic Room, Hear Records and Vinyl Kakis. Do call up the shops to check if it’s still available before heading down.

Here’s the first video and opening track on our upcoming EP, “What You’re Feeling Is Not Enough”. This video was done two years ago when the song was included on the “State Of Rock” compilation. We’ve since re-recorded a couple of parts, done a new mix and got it mastered by Hans DeKline at Sound Bites Dog.
