Converse CONS Project Singapore

Hi everyone!!

I attended a DJ workshop last Friday, organised by Converse for CONS Project Singapore at Aliwal Arts Centre. It was conducted byDJ KoFlow, a Singapore DMC Champion.

CONS Project Singapore is a two-day initiative that engages the community with street art, DJ and skate insta-video workshops.

Before this workshop, I did not know being a DJ was such a difficult job! Beat-matching, sampling, scratching, remixing etc., they were all terms I was familiar with but I never knew how they were done. Really happy to have gotten the opportunity to attend this workshop as I thought DJ KoFlow ran the workshop very well! He was really patient in teaching us the basics and with answering questions. He is also a fantastic DJ (duhhh, Singapore DMC champion hello) and wowed the audience with demonstrations of how he mix, scratch, beat match, etc. It was truly eye-opening.

Converse also did a great job by decorating the venue really well and running the programs very smoothly!

I asked my boyfriend to come along with me as usual and we were the first two to arrive!

People who attend the workshop even got cool stickers!

My cheapo $4 bugis street top automatically looks like some branded converse tops with the stickers LOL!

I brought along a leopard print bag that I use very often and it is coincidentally from Converse as well!

There was also an instant-print photobooth! How awesome is that??

Boyf and I with our photo from the photobooth!

It didn't take long for everyone else to arrive

Participants of the workshop even got a chance to tryout DJ-ing for ourselves!

This angmoh was a really funny guy, super buay paiseh to ask questions and acted as if he was a real DJ when trying out LOLOL!!

 I got to try the drum machine!! I was really shy and reluctant to go up at first but boyf kept nudging me up, I was soo nervous up there!! But it was quite fun and I'm glad to have gotten a chance to try it out ^^

A photo taken with the other participants! Ignore my awkward pose please.

Converse very kindly gave each blogger who attended the event a pair of converse sneaker each!

The very first pair of "proper" sneaker I got since I left secondary school :x (My shoes are usually cheapo flats from rubi/Bugis/Far East Plaza or heels, the last time I wore sneakers was during Secondary school when Converse school shoes were the trend LOL)

Because I love the sneakers soo much, I spammed photos of myself wearing them when trying them on at home :p

Thank you Converse for organising this event and I hope that there will be more of such events in the future!

That's all for today's post, thanks for reading!
