Astro Battleground 2009 - Audition
With ‘No boundaries, No limits’ as our theme for this year audition, we were taken aback by the response of this years’ participants. With 32 teams, it was indeed a global affair as not only Malaysians took part, but also participants who hailed from Japan, New Zealand and Germany.
Last year’s champion, ECX made a comeback by collaborating with Dennis Yin, who was one fifth of 2007’s champion, Racken Force and formed Elecoldxhot. Audiences were astounded right when this ‘double-champion’ group took centre stage. Also branching out from Racken Force, Becky and Shake teamed up with 3 new members and formed a new team, Street WreckerZ.
Local dance extraordinaire, Alam, together with 5 Malay boys came as Wakaka Fever in hopes to compete for top spot in the competition. Judges were also delighted with the participation of Haru Haru, a female dance duo. With their participation, they became Battleground’s first ever female duo group. We had a refreshing experience as well with the participation of La Bella Trio, a group formed by Pan Asian girls.
For this year’s audition, we have Marcus Tucker, Bobby Tan and also renowned local choreographers cum dancers Zero Havoc and Boojae. People from all over flocked to watch the participants display their best dance moves. On top of that, there were parents and teachers of participants whom attended to give support as well.
Contestants this year came well prepared as we saw a breakthrough in music creativity. What's more is that, we could see that the participants managed to capture the attention of the audience through their creative outfits as much effort was being put in their appearances.
Which 16 teams would advance to the next round? What are the opinions from the panel of judges? To find out, remember to tune in to Battleground on Astro Wah Lai Toi (Channel 311) on the 24th of October at 7 p.m.
