Since it's already September, I'm
happy to announce my upcoming album entitled, Manila Electronica.
It's a collection of tunes I've done over the years covering various
styles. I'm hoping that it would be a primer for the new listener
in finding out about the different styles out there.

Released in 2000 seeing BT take on more dance
and breaks with this release.
I usually take on old albums for the review
to let people in on the music that have influenced me a lot over
the years and this album, did it for me.
I came across this song of BT entitled the Hip
Hop Phenomenon and this sparked my interest into the whole breaks
scene. If you do take time to check this tune out, wait for the
drop til it comes back in. It's really something... for me at
least.
This album sounds great from start to finish
and I believe this album sparked the whole stutter edits exploding
to everyone's ears.
Key tracks are Dreaming, Godspeed, Never Gonna
Come back Down, and Shame. As I said everything's worth it and
you really get what you pay for in getting this album.
After listening to this record, I was a BT convert
and got all the releases after that and searched for those before
this one.
Some tidbits.... BT is an accomplished musician
and he knows his notes. He can do complete orchestrations, and
pieces. Yes. He's that good. He is the one responsible for the
stutter edit phenomenon which sparked a whole production style
for electronic music. His studio was burglarized before and someone
stole his computer along with the latest album. His daughter was
once kidnapped but recovered soon enough.

Around You - original mix
If you haven't downloaded your own copy of this dance tune, head
on over to the FREE section on the site to get the complete single
with remixes!
Around you is something I created with lesser style boundaries
set for myself. I felt like just going with the flow and it's
very evident that it really doesn't fit much into a certain set
of style or genre restriction. I distinctly remember thinking
of Daft Punk while making this. It doesn't sound like a DP track
and I wasn't really trying to achieve that but I thought of them
because of their style and how open it sounds in terms of how
they sound. Enjoy!

Photo Slideshow Using Multiply
I love multiply. Despite FB taking the lead and I've noticed
a number of people (partly) abandoned their multiply for the (famous)
Facebook, I still find it very useful and still love it to bits.
I hate the FB photo uploader and you will see that I don't really
have anything on Facebook because after waiting for almost an
hour, it suddenly fails...
Now what makes the slideshow special in Multiply? You can share
it on your blogs, websites, etc. It's easy as sharing and embedding
your slideshow into your desired page/site. You may ask, so what?
I've tried Flickr and that particular function is quite limited
and in a way, hard to setup whereas in Multiply, all you have
to do is go to the album and share. In Facebook, it's not even
possible. You can share the link but can't embed it and present
it in a slideshow.
Just go at the bottom of the album before the replies. Share
is on the bottom right part of the album. Click on it, then copy
embed and paste onto your site.
Here's a sample from my Nu107 interview on Devotion
If you're not yet on multiply, get on it! It' worth it!
Enjoy!
