SAF MDC

Artiste of the Month

NICODEMUS - July's Artiste of the Month features Nicodemus of "Mi Lu Bing"! He was the winner of the 2007 talent-spotting band competition SuperBand and he also won Best Newcomer Award at the Singapore Hit Awards 2007!

Nic is in SAF MDC's Artiste Department, and performs as well as sings for repertoires!

May's Artiste of the Month features Nicodemus of "Mi Lu Bing"! He was the winner of the 2007 talent-spotting band competition SuperBand and he also won Best Newcomer Award at the Singapore Hit Awards 2007!

Question: Hello Nicodemus! Can you tell us more about yourself?
Nicodemus:
I'm 24 years old, currently serving my National Service in SAF MDC. My rank is Lance Corporal.

Q: How do you play a part in MDC?
Nic:
I'm a performing artiste. I sizzle up the dance floor as well as stretch my vocal chords from time to time.

Q: How did you get involved with music and subsequently think of joining MDC?
Nic:
I took up a diploma in audio engineering before moving into the performing line. Armed with a diploma in the relevant field and experience, I joined the SAF MDC.

Q: How has MDC helped you in becoming a better musician?
Nic:
MDC's has taught me how to express myself better and attain a much better stage presence. Before, I used to 'hide' behind my instrument (guitar) whenever I perform, perhaps due to a little lack of confidence on my part. But MDC taught me how to fully express myself with the mic.

I've also picked up a very important fact of life while serving my NS here. 'Learn to be humble and earn your respect through merit'. You might be a artiste in civilian life, but here in the army, everybody's the same. There're no 'big shots' or superiors amongst peers.

Q: Being an Artiste looks like a glamorous life. Surely everyday's a breeze here?
Nic:
Haha, that's far from true. When tight schedules kick in, life can get pretty tiring. Behind the glitz lie many, many hours of hard work and practise. Lots of times I find myself having to forsake my precious Saturdays and Sundays to stay and do rehearsals.

Sure, we go on stage with smiles on our faces. But that is garnered from the satisfaction of finally performing what you've practised, and sheer professionalism. Things never appear as they seem.

Q: What do you intend to do after you are Operationally Ready and leave MDC?
Nic:
My life resolves around music, so I would like a job that is related to music. It doesn't have to be performance related. I'd be happy any time with a career in music production or support.

Q: Enough about music! Tell us what you do in your free time!
Nic:
Well... Actually I spend lots of spare time surfing the net and doing research on the latest musical advancements, checking out the newest of sound technology and basically reading up on anything related to music. Guess I'm quite passionate about music! Or should I say crazy? Haha!

Q: Since this is the first issue of Artiste of the Month, please tell us what a regular day for you here at MDC is like!
Nic:
Sure it goes something like this;

0915 to 0930 - arrive for roll call
0930 to 1000 - warm up & dexterity exercises
1000 to 1230 - rehearsals for new repertoire item (or dance classes)
1230 to 1315 - lunch
1315 to 1730 - rehearsals for current repertoire items

Q: Thanks so much for your time Nicodemus! Great to share a moment with you. Any words of advice to anyone looking to join MDC?
Nic:
No problem! I'd like to say, think carefully if you wish to consider MDC. If it's not for the passion of performing or music, forget about it. Other vocations would be much better. I've seen people come and request to get posted out almost immediately, just because they feel that having to dance is suffering. In MDC, all singers have to pick up dance!
