Adnan Othman

Adnan Othman has been played on NTS shows including My Ever Changing Moods w/ DJ Lance Rock, with Revolusi first played on 12 September 2017.

The legendary Adnan Othman has long been a driving force in the Malaysian rock scene. As early as the 1960s his ground-breaking songs in the style known as Pop Yeh Yeh (rock and roll sung in Malay) attracted fans from across South East Asia. Adnan first rose to fame during the groovy Pop Yeh Yeh era (1964-1970) in Malaysia and Singapore and he continued to evolve as a musician and composer throughout his exciting career. He made his first recordings in Singapore in the early 1960s, when he was invited to record with a highly popular backing band, The Rythmn Boys. He produced innovative material well into the 1970s, but always stayed true to his Rock-and-Roll roots, even when many other artists were turning towards more predictable disco influences.

Recently, he has gained many new fans around the globe due to a renewed interest in rock music from this region.
