  • 许环良) Is Perhaps Best Known As the Record Producer Who Launched the Successful Careers of Singapore Singing Artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2
    ARTICLE Billy Koh ( 许 环 良): The Butterfly and Its Dreams by Kong, Kam Yoke , written on 20th August 2010 National Library Board, Singapore Billy Koh, who has helped re-shape the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over the last 25 years, is best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singers Kit Chan, JJ Lin, A-Do and BY2. Considered one of the most instrumental and influential figures in the Singapore music industry, Billy Koh ( 许环良) is perhaps best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singing artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2. As the most recognised face from Ocean Butterflies Music Pte Ltd ( 海蝶音乐私人有限公 司), which Koh co-founded, he had, together with his team, re-shaped the landscape of the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over a span of a quarter of a century, carving a place for itself and creating a brand name that exerts an impact in Asia. In his nearly three-decade-long career, Koh has produced more than 150 albums and is credited for discovering and grooming many top artistes who made it big in Asia. For his contributions to the Singapore music industry, Koh was awarded the Meritorious Award and the Wings of Excellence Award by COMPASS in 2001 and 2005 respectively. It had all begun in 1981. Billy Koh had formed a singing group called The Straw ( 水草三重唱), together with his schoolmates, Koh Nam Seng ( 许南盛) and the late Sunkist Ng ( 黄元成), to participate in the television talent show “Chinese Talentime” ( 《斗歌竞艺》), which was one of the most watched shows then.
