MUSIC LYF: Sandwich with their new album CONTRA TIEMPO

SANDWICH

and their new album

Contra Tiempo

Sandwich recently launched their latest album CONTRA TIEMPO on March 4, 2011 at Eastwood city. To date it is their 6th album so far since 1998 following < S > marks the spot. It includes the single LAKAD which is already topping the charts and also a Music Video relased directed by Jason Magbanua. The band is actually one of my favorites with their hits always on my playlist in my music players. And meeting them also made me so happy to see how this band still keeps making good music and did not fall into the trend of disbanding. 

In December 2009, Sandwich released a brand new single to help and inspire our typhoon victims through the song title PUTIK, which is also included in the new cd. The album shows impressive range: while all of the songs are radio-ready rockers, they span a wide variety of musical elements with other titles include LAPIT, LAPIT, LAPIT; TAKBO;SUGATAN; STRANDED SA AIRPORT; SULPUTIN; BISIKLETA; DISPALINGHADO; DOWNHILL; SIESTA and the brand new radio hit single PERA, PERA.

Sandwich signed with their home label EMI Philippines (now Polyeast records) in 2006 for their fourth overall release and major label debut called Five on the Floor catapulted them on the top of the OPM charts with the songs, Sugod, Sunburn, DVDx, and Walang Kadala dala. Then Sandwich released the 2008's < S > marks the spot and spawned four hit singles like Procrastinator, Betamax, Selos and Manila.

I love the BAR.com.ph!

LOVE THE BAR!

Last Friday, February 26, we were invited at the Manor Eastwood to witness the launch of the website of the Bar. Yup, the popular vodka drink that is making waves in the market as the favorite party drink. And I too could not agree more since in most of my parties that I have attended, the Bar would always be there. With 3 variants ( Lemon-lime, Apple, and Orange), its add some twist on the regular vodka kick.

Going back to the event, this launched the official website of the Bar (www.thebar.com.ph). The website contains pretty interesting content and really worth your time browsing. First, there is a calendar of events so you can be informed about upcoming happenings you can attend to. Then you can also upload your pictures with the Bar, and you can send funny one too, however pictures may need to be screened by the web admin before they would be posted online. You can also download cool wallpapers of the Bar variants and also Angelica Panganiban!There is also a page for contest, promos and event request a sponsorship!

  

Me and my fellow bloggers spotted the endorsers of the Bar, like Jaime Joaquin, James Uy, Wendy Valdez, and also the BNO boys Slick Rick and Tony tony! The party was also attended by the Bar fans on social networking sites, bloggers and also media men. And since its a party, we really had a fine time bonding, dancing and especially enjoying the Bar (drink moderately!).
