With ALAMAT and 1st.One releasing new music videos for songs they released a few months ago, it gives me hope that Cornerstone does the same for VXON and the songs of their excellent album 20:20! *pleasepleasepleaseCS!* Hehe. But for now, we have these two excellent music videos of two excellent songs from ALAMAT and 1st.One to enjoy!
So it is exciting to have the group back with a brand new album in IsaPuso. Knowing what the group can offer, especially with their attention to Filipino culture and heritage in their music, this new album is of course a must-listen. And they very much deliver once again.
Did I just encounter my brand-new favorite song of 2023 so far? I think so! And it comes from a group I know to expect some great things from. Of course, that group is ALAMAT. And the song is their latest release “Walang Hanggan.”
Every time ALAMAT releases a new music video, of course it is worthy of special mention. And their MV for “Gayuma” might just be their most striking and captivating yet.
“Maharani” became one of the fan-favorite tracks from ALAMAT’s Pasulong album last year. And the long-awaited music video definitely brings the excellent song to vivid life.
Right on schedule, my indecisive self says hello once again! During my annual New Year’s Eve/Day listen to my favorite songs of the year, these ten songs popped up on the playlist and they definitely left a lasting impression on my 2022 music year. So here’s ten more tracks worthy of my Top 50 (60?!) of 2022!
It’s that time of year again! Here are my 50 favorite songs of 2022!
Hearing and seeing ALAMAT effortlessly blend together distinct Filipino qualities into modern pop music was such a great experience for me. Being Cagayano-Kalinga-American, hearing Ilocano in pop music that I’d normally hear being performed in English or Korean was amazing. And all of this is probably the reason why ALAMAT has become my P-pop bias!
Hello! So starting next week, my DryedMangoez Music Monday thoughts will temporarily move to Thursdays. With The Amazing Race Australia premiering this Monday, my Sundays and Mondays and however many days Network 10 decides to air TARAu will keep me busier than usual. All in addition to other real life stuffs too.
So! For as long as The Amazing Race Australia will be on the air (and who knows how long it’ll be what with their 98+ Legs), Music Monday will Temporarily become Thursday Tunes!
Looking forward to some more great music to listen to, but on Thursdays for a while. Hee.
And what better way to kick off Thursday Tunes than with these two striking new tracks from CIX and, yes, ALAMAT!
How about some Thursday Tunes? Because ALAMAT’s lead single off of their upcoming first! mini-album just can’t wait for Monday to have me gushing over it. The chill heartbreak vibes of “Say U Love Me” offer ALAMAT another opportunity to show off their talents and impressive versatility.
