Hmmmm....

Several months ago, we posted an ad that they did in Argentina, suggesting that we could change the name of the country with "Philippines" and it would still work.

Well, here's a new take on the reality show bandwagon that was done in India - wouldn't it be fun to see it done here as well? :-)

Canvas Rocks Starts to Roll!

The first two rock songs for our Looking for Juan project are in, and the excitement just keeps on building for us.

We watched the recording session for the two songs composed by Dong Abay who is partnered with Emong Borlongan.

Here are some pictures from the experience.

Emong is in the house!


We went to Ambient Media's facilities in Alabang to sit in on the recording. When we arrived, Raimond Marasigan was in the soundproof studio recording his set for Dong Abay's new song Trade Mark, which was inspired by Emong's Global Pintados, shown here:


Of course, it can't hurt to have Buddy Zabala on bass, Sancho Sanchez on electric guitar and, needless to say, the vocals of Dong Abay.




That was the first time we heard the songs. Even at this relatively rough stage, we think we have a hit (or two) already on our hands! :-)
