(Work has commenced for the upcoming CD album)

I am Dr. Tengku Shahrizal, better known in the musical circles as Bode. Currently, I am doing session guitar work in studios for high profile local and international artists and movie soundtracks, amidst my full time profession as a doctor/surgeon. I also play keyboards, drums and bass. My band/group of collaborating musicians is called BODE'S NOISE BOX. This musicians collaboration is unique in the sense that there is no fixed line-up of it's 'band' members. It holds true to the concept of an open relationship between musicians; who can freely create music without worrying about musical boundaries and enjoy artistic freedom...sort of like a musician's Utopia. We aim to create something fresh, marrying the old and the new, encompassing a wide range of genres from rock to classical and anything in between. The imagination is the only limit...
