Default Blue/Black bird with long tail feather?

Hihi,

Caught a few of these blue/black birds with long tail feather at the summit of bukit timah hill today. It was just after the rain and quite dark, so iso 1600 was used. May I have their ID please? It seems that the red eye one (maybe a male) is feeding the black eye bird.
