As someone that doesn’t spend a whole lot of time in night clubs or the heart of Kings Cross, I entered Candy’s Apartment with a hint of apprehension and a further amount of nerves when I witnessed the lighting situation (a dark room with flashing, rainbow lights). However my nerves dissipated rather rapidly and I kind of got absorbed into the colour of Dyan Tai’s album launch when he came on stage. And if it weren’t for the fact that I needed to keep my almost-2kg camera up to my face for most of the time, I probably would have found myself dancing along to the music and the beat!
If he had been nervous before his performance at all, it didn’t show. With a mix of pop and techno-ish beats, Dyan’s show was entertaining and energising, and the crowd loved it! I almost got swamped when they came forward to shake his hand during the show and almost prostrated themselves at his feet.
