From the ashes of Akta Angkasa and Custom Daisy, Dirgahayu first emerged in July 2013 as a 3­-piece instrumental rock outfit.

The band initial hit the scene with a single release Bahawasa­-nya: 4 minutes of organised chaos, robust guitar attacks, and exuberant drum beats punctuated by intense abrupt transitions.

In conjunction of their nationwide tour 2013-14, directed by Carlos Nizam and Khairul Johari, Bahawasa-­nya’s music video was released with compelling positive reviews from all over the region. Shot with a DSLR on burst, the resulting effect is a staccato­like rhythm of stop motion filming from a god’s eye view.

With the addition of Seikan Sawaki on drums and Zulhezan back on guitar duty, expect their sound dynamics to turn more progressive, odd-signature compositions greeted with dense guitar riffs and a new foray of sound.
