  • I Think I'm Ready To Make An Album

    Friday, Sep 5, 2008 4:14AM / Members only


    i've decided that I will record an album. The difference is, I don't feel i need a label cause they usually fund the production and of course marketing.

    I am not joking. I don't care. I got nothing to loose. 

    I've been producing for ten years. I got a nice healthy resume and a long list of clients...including the late John Lennon and Yoko Ono.....but I don't have an album to my name.

    I am a producer/songwriter/arranger....so all i got to do is convince one of my mentors to record me in his studio cause I would never attempt a chinese album unless he was there with me.
    Then my partners. I got boys who know this market. My other partner is the co-founder of The Filter Group you know they were fuckin cool when they were still in existence.
    So basically, I can do it....even if i just felt like it.

    But that's not why. I write these songs for people with no intention to make myself more well know. When I write a song for someone, I write it and make it theirs. Not mine. I hardly ever address a song i write for someone as MY SONG, i address it as "so and so's" song. So this year, I write 10 of my songs. Usually myself late at night, winding down.
    I wrote them all about love and all about something that I've been through.

    My business partners wanted to hear ONE SONG.

    This song, which I will record a much better version in time was the first time I wrote Chinese lyrics. When I sent the demo to my buddy Toro, he loved it. I respect Toro as one of the best lyricist I know from my generation including being an absolutely talented B-Boy and a TRUE hip hop soul. So one day when u're by a radio and u had a song with these lyrics come on....please remember...

    At the end of the day, if I wanted fame I would have chased it tens years ago when I started in this particular industry. But my soul is music. And I can't lie that it's what it's about for me. Nothing wrong wit being famous but when I got my first taste of fame years ago, I ran from it.

    And now, I just wanna write songs that I share with the people. In hopes that this can be my starting point of inspiring and healing...

    they say u gotta go out with a bang....or at least make it a big deal...

    it'll be my first and probably last solo album... but ima drop the sickest album y'all heard in a minute.

    no disrespect to the competition...there's a few with soul in this business...a few...half of those few got soul...the other half have learnt or imitated it...
    let's add one more to soul...

    Enjoy...
    Peace and Light

  • The Talented Don M

    Friday, Sep 5, 2008 2:17AM / Members only


    In my years of making music, I have never taken the responsibility to help groom a producer. Only artist. But over a year ago, I met a talented young man named Don M

    He took the faith in me and signed with ChynaHouse, the cool little boutique label that I work for. So i've been working with homeboy and in a year, he has done arrangements and even production for a Sony BMG artist and even Disney.

    I got into Singapore last night and I got reminded of how beautiful the last 6 years here were for me. The people I met and I just wanted to introduce you guys to my talent apprentice.... Syed "Don M" Muhammed....


    please support him and if u need beats...Don M..is the man




  • Luck, Bad Times, Hugs, Kisses, Shitty Days and a Hot Chic.

    Sunday, Aug 31, 2008 6:50AM / Members only



    For the last two years, I have been bogged down by a series of bad luck in my work.

    It was just the coincidence of a series of unfortunate events, it was the inability to break out a mental space that I was manifesting repeatedly. It was not the coolest place to be for almost 30 months but..since early August..and a visit to a kind man a little out of Taipei has left me in an unexpected place.




    To be honest, as open as I am to my spirituality, I still think I have the ability to discern what is of heaven, what is from heaven and what is absolutely total bullshit. I left the tea house where I met him, feeling curious but happy but a little doubtful of the road ahead.

    That's when it all began Then it all began to happen.



    I have been going through a series of synchronicities that are often not of coincidence because the messages are clear and in your face. Then things started to happen in a weird way. People who I've wanted to work with, people who i've been meaning to catch up with and even relationships have began to change.

    I remember the words of this wise lao shi and I called him to tell him something was happening. If external events are not enough proof, I started changing. My bad sleeping habits disappeared and I live a normal life now, sleeping and waking at normal hours. I live a life of absolutely no fear and worry now. I feel free and liberated.

    There's been something talking to me in my heart over the last couple weeks that seems to be leading me to a direction which I believe life has planned for me..




    So I'm absolutely swamped with work now. Its all starting to clique. I'm busy and I love it. Not that I wasn't busy before but this busy is the kinda busy to be envious of. When u can forget how many jobs you are working on at one time, it's a nice warm way of remind yourself that you are relevant to your work.

    A couple years ago, I fell into a not so nice place. But I saw it coming and it came. At that time, I didn't abandon my religious beliefs but my continuous disappointment in the church and the increasing hypocrisies that I saw among my Christian friends at that time led me to make some alterations in my life.

    At that time, I met a lovely girl named Denise. When I met her, I didn't tell her too much about where I was in my life but she turned on something in me that led me on probably the most humbling human experience I have ever been through. The awakening of one's soul and one's conciousness is a priceless gift from heaven that quite honestly, I have not met to many people who have been blessed with that.

    My story is moving towards an epic which I myself am completely hooked and enthrawled in. Denise let me read a book called Awakening The Buddha Within. At first, it was the most hard to understand book of simplicity but I began to realize that it wasn't the book. It was myself. I was too caught in being something I was probably not and I was too hung up in wanting success for all the wrong reasons.

    In the months, that followed, my friend took me down a road that left me facing some very difficult moments and emotions and also some of the most beautiful moments in my adult life. I felt like a child again as I wondered in this new head space that she had opened me too.

    In my own time, I read and read and read and spent hours debating and learning from all sorts of people who had devoted their lives to healing. I was suddenly thrown into an environment where I didn't feel comfortable cause I didn't have the previous comforts and "privileges" and I realized at the point that my friend had opened my conciousness to a new space cause I had to face another another challenge ahead. And from there, it was another 18 months to lead me here.

    Time and change has left the both of us out of contact but I say a little prayer everyday and sometimes, every other moment, for the good she did in my life and feel bad sometimes I couldn't have done more for her. But we meet people for reasons we may never be able to control. We can just discover them and embrace them as is.

    Today is Sunday. I got a day of work ahead that's why I'm up so early. It's Sunday. Most people chill but I got to make hot ass music. It's kinda the same thing. I'm ready to jump in to this new busy-ness and shine.

    My life has completely changed after this almost three years of change and trials...my life is beginning to look like a brand new dream...

  • Key Note Speech : I Will Leave You Better Than Before I Came

    Tuesday, Aug 26, 2008 2:23AM / Members only



    My name is Terence Leong. Some know me as terrytyelee. Tye being my middle name.

    For many weeks, I have battled with many things in my life, doubt about my work, where I'm out or for that matter of fact,  how I had fallen so far from where I was in 2006, then only 4 years into what was starting out to be a successful career in the Asian music industry.

    I even debated quitting.

    That year, I thought I lost pretty much all but Carl but I gained another called Stuart.

    Those before don't live in my life anymore. I can say to Heaven I never cheated anyone in my life and I have never done anything that was outside of their best interest. I believe the ego eats the soul and it kills your life. I personally believe that is what happened to some of my friends before.

    In 2006, I started the journey to re-foot and re-find myself. For the first 6 months, I had a lovely girl beside me who I was dating- well, i don't really know if we were dating but we were living our lives like girlfriend/boyfriend at least...and though she fell out of love with me in the end, I always loved her cause she was one of the first person to open my heart to a change that was two years coming.

    Two years later, I have been through the craziest shit in my life. The craziest changes and some shit that only happens in movies (though one day I assure you I will be a movie star) and too many strange things that would take me forever to describe.

    Today, a strange series of events too synchronized and too coincidental occurred and too hard for even my often too logical mind to deny that it was a work of heaven finally clearing up this long journey.

    Since 2002, I have achieve a resume that includes John Lennon to John Wong (u don't know him cause I am tryin to show the extremes I have done.) And now it's time to take it to where it counts.

    Some things happened to day that finally cleared my life of all residual evil. Those who I am not well with in my life are still around cause they are not evil. Just need some more time to work them out.

    Let the history books have it that in the 20th to 21st Century, there lived a man named Terence Leong, who went by the name terrytyelee, and he was known for his continued devotion to inspiring and healing through the dope ass pop music, sometimes rock, sometimes hip hop, sometimes, rock with a bit of hip hop, sometimes pop with a nice rap, etc.

    I have been going through spiritual revelations and changes and trials and tribulations and fucked up days repeated and I have finally trimmed myself of my ego and replaced it with a deeper purpose for my life- to inspire, to heal, to love.

    The name The Dove was given to me first by The Rock cause my boys laugh at me cause I am always in love.....

    What can I say...the ladies do love terry lee huh?

    Peace and Love and I looke forward to seeing you around..

    The Dove

    No worries. I got yer back :)

    That's the flaw of genius. When you're really good at something, it unbalances the scales. Count yourself lucky it was just a minor lingo usage thing. I know of doctor who can't set their dvd recorder! =O
