TERPAKU seketika tatkala melihat persembahan 'beatbox' dilakukan anak muda ini dan tertanya-tanya bagaimana dia mampu melakukan banyak bunyi alat muzik dalam satu masa.

Itulah kehebatan Shazet, 20, dalam bidang beatbox ini hingga meletakkannya antara beatboxer terkenal di negara ini.

Bagi yang mungkin kabur mengenai beatbox, ia adalah satu bentuk seni yang tertumpu menghasilkan bunyi alat muzik menggunakan mulut.

Menyingkap semula pembabitannya dalam bidang ini, Shazet berkata, dia mula meminatinya sejak melihat persembahan beatbox di Australia.

Sejak itu, ia mencambahkan minat dalam hatinya dan mula mencari maklumat dan panduan melakukan beatboxer menerusi Internet.

Uniknya, dia tidak pernah mendapat tunjuk ajar daripada sesiapa, sebaliknya hanya berlatih sendiri untuk memantapkan dirinya.

"Beatbox banyak menggunakan elemen bunyi drum dan ia adalah nadi persembahan dan pada mulanya saya berlatih mengeluarkan bunyi itu sebelum memasukkan bunyi alat muzik lain.

"Saya juga mencipta bunyi dan rentak sendiri supaya ia menjadi identiti saya dan berbeza daripada beatboxer lain," katanya.

Menariknya, dia tidak mempunyai latihan khusus, sebaliknya anak muda kelahiran Bayan Lepas, Pulau Pinang ini lebih gemar melakukannya secara spontan.

Dia juga banyak menerima undangan melakukan persembahan dalam pelbagai majlis di sekitar ibu negara dan percaya atau tidak, sebenarnya ramai menggemari seni beatbox.

"Berbanding negara luar, Malaysia ketinggalan dalam bidang ini walaupun ia bertapak lebih 10 tahun lalu.

"Jika dihitung, ada ramai beatboxer berbakat di negara kita, tetapi mereka lebih selesa bergerak secara 'underground', namun golongan muda rata-ratanya mengetahui mengenainya," katanya.

Menurutnya, beatbox bukan hanya digemari golongan muda tetapi segenap lapisan masyarakat dan ia dapat dilihat ketika dia melakukan persembahan.

Pembabitan Shazet dalam beatbox membawanya ke merata negara dan berjaya merangkul beberapa kejayaan, termasuk juara Australia Beatbox Championship 2008 dan mewakili negara ke Beatbox Battle World Championship 2009.

"Saya bertuah kerana mendapat sokongan penuh ibu bapa yang sentiasa melihat perkembangan saya dan memberi semangat setiap kali menyertai pertandingan.

"Bagi mereka, tiada salahnya saya terbabit dalam bidang ini asalkan tidak membawa perkara negatif dan pandai membawa diri," katanya.

Walaupun mencipta banyak kejayaan dalam beatbox, Shazet tidak merancang menjadikan ia sebagai kerjaya, sebaliknya hanya sekadar hobi kerana minat hakikinya lebih kepada seni rekabentuk permainan komputer.
