victims of crab mentality.

It's a known fact that's hard to accept. But I have to agree with that. Well at least we're lucky to have them. To have those people who chose that path knowing that the music industry here in our country have no system. I mean musicians hard work don't sure to get pay-off or musicians don't get what is due for them. (Only the singers always get the credit.) hahahaha

depende...

if you're only considering the bands that get played in the "masa music" stations (read - POGI ROCK), i'd say "the local bands today all sound the same"

but if you also consider the huge number of unsigned and/or upcoming bands, i'd say "the local bands today are in need of more exposure"

it depends on what kind of local bands your talking about
if your talking about some local underground bands well tey need a little bit of exposure and credit.
as for some mainstream bands depends also on what band.
some are just in it for the money.

(Hanep sa analogy... Hehe)  :-D

Parang:
"Ako may banda, Ikaw may banda, Siya may banda, Lolo mo nagbanda, Kapitbahay mo may banda, si Kuya Balong mo may banda, etc."


Wala naman pong masama eh. At least marami na sa atin ang nahihilig sa pagtugtog.

Yun nga lang, parang nagiging overcrowded na rin po ang mga airwaves natin. Sa sobrang dami na ng mga banda ngayon, parang ang hirap na alalahanin mga kanta nila. Parang mabilis na tuloy sila malaos. Unlike noon na konti lang mga banda sa mundo kaya nagkakaron sila ng adequate exposure sa radio.

Hmmmm...... Kinda makes you think....  :-D

When you don't think of money... and you think of music first... then go indie!

Hopefully, hindi ka pressured dun... kasi hobbie siya you can come up with a great poem/song... some people may or may not appreciate it but still you're having fun!

I-Clarify ko lang po:

Chong, wala po akong sinasabi na gusto ko mabawasan ang mga banda.....

Sinabi ko lang na medyo marami na ang mga banda sa panahon ngayon to the point na overcrowded na ang music scene... It's just my observation. Please don't jump into conclusions my friend. Wag po tayo mag-assume kaagad sa mga bagay na hindi naman tayo sigurado.

Paki-basa nalang po ulet yung pinost ko at hanapin nyo kung meron po akong nasabing ganoon..... Sa katunayan, may nakasulat pa nga doon na "Wala naman pong masama eh..."  8-)

Pag-isipan muna po natin yung mga ire-reply natin sa mga opinion ng iba bago natin ito i-post. Baka po kasi mali na ang mga nasusulat natin. Yun lang po.  :-)

And yup, I do support Indie bands... especially yung mga underrated ones.

you need a new form of analogy then. ipares ba ang banda sa hamsters?

ok. answer this. Since your so called observation reveals that the local airwaves are overcrowded, what do you think should be done then? if you support the local "zene" what can you do for the local airwaves now? or you are just observing?

i guess you should also watch the way you post rather / or more than you see the way other people post.  :-)

Chong, hindi naman po literal yung meaning ko nung "analogy" ko eh. It's just a simple metaphorical analogy na WALANG HALONG MASAMA.  :-) Kanya-kanya po kasi tayo ng opinion/perception kaibigan. Wag nyo po sana ako pangunahan. Opinion-bashing na po kasi ang nangyayari eh. I'm just posting my opinion based on my own observation. 8-)

Kung na-offend man kayo sa pinost ko, siguro NEGATIVE lang yung pagkakaintindi nyo sa post ko.
Ang gusto ko lamang pong sabihen eh overcrowded na ang mga airwaves natin unlike noon. THAT'S IT.

WALA PO AKONG SINASABI NA MAGBAWAS NG BANDA O KUNG ANO MAN RELATED DUN. (If you want, you can quote my earlier post, and then highlight the statements that can contradict my defense. Para ma-point out nyo na rin sa akin.)  :-)

Based on your earlier posts, kayo lang naman po ang nagpapalabas na "gusto ko mabawasan ang mga banda" eh:
its funny how you say "support indie bands" pero gusto mo ren mabawasan.  :-) anyway tsong, back to regular programmin!  :evil:

Di po ba?

Uulitin ko rin po na sumusuporta po talaga ako sa mga indie bands naten. And I'm proud to say na marami na din po akong naibigay na tulong (maliit man o malaki) sa kanila.  8-)

Anyway, My answer to your previous question is:
Since marami na'ng banda ngayon, sana mabigyan ng adequate airtime (if possible) yung iba para may chance na marinig ng tao yung mga kanta nila. Hindi na kasi katulad noon na konti lang ang banda kaya mahaba yung exposure nila sa radyo. So sana, mai-share man lang yung kaunting airtime sa nakararami.  :-D
 
I hope this would be my last reply to your post. Mao-Off Topic na po kasi tayo pag nagpatuloy pa po itong discussion natin.  8-)

Clarify ko lang po na I'm just defending my opinion. Wala po akong gustong palabasin na masama tungkol sa kung anong bagay o sa kung sino man.  :-)

Hell, Urbandub is one of my favorite local bands (I own all their albums except Southern Lights), but it's kind of unsettling hearing 8 out of 10 given bands in any given lineup composed of college students-cum-hipsters sound almost like straight-up carbon copies.

When we talk about music, nationality and place of origin is a non-issue (IMHO). Why? Because music transcend boundaries. And frankly, here in the Philippines, there are very few entities who produce Filipino Music in the strictest sense (use of indigenous instruments and local language and scales).

That is why in the strictest sense, there will always be 'foreign' influence in local artists output (from language used to instruments to scales).

* * * * *

On-Topic :) The Local Bands (generally) Today are spending more than they earn from playing. It's the love of their craft that keep 'em going :)

kasi yun yung taste ng producer, and yun lang kanilang naapreciate,
bihira sa pilipino ang tunay na artist, marami satin madaling ma entertain.
so bihira ng nagsasabi ng gustong sabihin, masmarami ang madaling maaliw kaya mas marami ang mang aaliw.
so local bands today is more of entertainers than artist.

Magandang tanong Manong Chai :) Maraming unsigned bands na very mainstream ang tunog (pop rock-ish, veering to novelty). Siguro ang masasabi mong underground ay yung unconventional ang lyrics at tunog (metal in general). Nothing wrong about pop-rock-like sound, but you can't classify it as underground/indie dahil lang sa hindi sikat :)

sir qroon, i meant underground is not mainstream, lahat ng genre may mainstream and may underground, mapa pop, metal, rock, jazz, blues, etc. yung unsigned artist na tunog mainstream eh dahil yun ang aim nila to be maisteream, to play what people wants them to play, they are not underground they are only unsigned and may underground na sikat dahil may underground listeners, what makes them underground is di sila radio freindly, di sila bibilhin ng masa, dahil ginagwa nila at sinasabi nila ang gusto nilang gawin at hindi sila trip ng producers, they need to sell.

eg. belle and sebastian, pop alternative, kahit na may nag produce di pa rin sila nag mainstream. narinig mo ba sila sa love radio?
WDOUJI, Witch Doctor Of Underground Jazz Improvisation, im sure sikat sila, pero underground kasi di sya trip ng office mate mo, dahil kilala nyang jazz artist eh si sitti.

sir qroon, i meant underground is not mainstream, lahat ng genre may mainstream and may underground, mapa pop, metal, rock, jazz, blues, etc. yung unsigned artist na tunog mainstream eh dahil yun ang aim nila to be maisteream, to play what people wants them to play, they are not underground they are only unsigned and may underground na sikat dahil may underground listeners, what makes them underground is di sila radio freindly, di sila bibilhin ng masa, dahil ginagwa nila at sinasabi nila ang gusto nilang gawin at hindi sila trip ng producers, they need to sell.



you clearly are confused between "underground" and "unsigned" ...

you definition fits the "unsigned" category.

anwyay, just to help you... something is underground if it has a SCENE backing it up ... in pinas, its metal, punk and even those brit sounding indie stuff. as far as jazz and blues are concerned, nope it doesnt have a scene, just some musicians and random appreciators... therefore, there really is no jazz and blues underground as far as pinas is concerned...

...are descendants of Eraserheads' "Ultraelectromagneticpop!"and "Circus", and, Radiohead's Pablo Honey (and not The Bends). Now that they are in the recording business, local bands should explore further (and deeper) into their musical roots. There is a music world outside of the 90s. They can sell their soul if they have to. After all, this is all about "the music" and not prostitution.

Eraserheads admitted that their music was not purely Beatles sound. It's true. They did not even sound like one. Their music was post-punk with a blend of pinoy pop. In my opinion, the epic "Ang Huling El Bimbo" was not entirely influenced by the Beatles (or 60s) music but rather by Harrison's "Isn't It A Pity" (a post Beatles music from an ex-Beatle). Both songs have the same chord patterns (G-A(7)-C-G). Only, El Bimbo was tuned at a fret lower. At that time, they were headed for a peak.

On the other hand, Radiohead combined Smiths-like sound with the grunge. And the result was "Creep" and the first album. Radiohead moved on with the Bends. A big leap from the first lp. This time, they were musical explorers and operatic. They were shaping up the second half of the 90s sound.

Local bands should not be afraid to deviate from usual stuff. It may break them...but it can also be a breakthrough, music and otherwise.

Hindi lang diverse ang music natin ngayon pati ang bawat banda ay may diverse personality...
May humble, may mayabang.
May professional, may immature.
May matiyaga, may tamad.

Madaming magaling na banda ngayon.
Ang pagiging magaling ay subjective.
Madaming mga tenga ang nakikinig - ang ibang tenga pumapalakpak, ang iba dumudugo!

Para sa aking tenga, madaming magaling na banda ngayon. At para sa akin hindi importante kung mag-click sa marami ang music nila o hindi. Ang importante enjoy sa tugtugan!

E pano kaya sir kung ang gusto nila talagang gawin ay yung sinasabi mong tunog mainstream pero wala silang "aim" na maging mainstream?  Gumbaga simpleng reason lang... Gusto nilang gumawa ng catchy na kanta. :-D

I-Clarify ko lang po:

Chong, wala po akong sinasabi na gusto ko mabawasan ang mga banda.....

Sinabi ko lang na medyo marami na ang mga banda sa panahon ngayon to the point na overcrowded na ang music scene... It's just my observation. Please don't jump into conclusions my friend. Wag po tayo mag-assume kaagad sa mga bagay na hindi naman tayo sigurado.

Paki-basa nalang po ulet yung pinost ko at hanapin nyo kung meron po akong nasabing ganoon..... Sa katunayan, may nakasulat pa nga doon na "Wala naman pong masama eh..."  8-)

Pag-isipan muna po natin yung mga ire-reply natin sa mga opinion ng iba bago natin ito i-post. Baka po kasi mali na ang mga nasusulat natin. Yun lang po.  :-)

And yup, I do support Indie bands... especially yung mga underrated ones.

 :-D

Cheers!  8-)

i dont think there is overcrowding. there is fun in having more variety. atsaka parang survival of the fittest yan. kung sino may pinaka magandang tugtog siya yung pinaka magaling. although in reality... this does not really happen. kung sino yung mas pogi, siya yung mas sikat. ahaha

under rated ang ma tunay na artists. sobrang overratd naman ng mga professional artists. kasi yung mga professional artists, takot magexperiment. gnagawa lng nila yung gusto ng public. yung public, tanggap lng ng tanggap kung ano ang pinaparinig sa kanila ng mainstream media. epekto, naghihingalong tunay na artista.

i agree. i made a post in another topic earlier that these guys who are "sikat" are afraid of experimentation. why? kasi baka hindi na bumenta album nila. if their next album sounds very differently from their previous album baka ma-weirdohan ang fanbase nila. pero in the case of a band like spongecola, 6cyclemind or hale...what hurt will it do if they create music that is more out of the box. for example yung spongecola gumawa ng kanta na parang seether, breaking benjamin at creed? or yung 6cyclemind gumawa ng mga kanta na parang Smashing Pumpkins, The Cure, or The Strokes? or yung Hale gumawa ng Kanta na katulad ng Dashboard Confessional, Switchfoot (medyo katunog na nila to), or Incubus.

Let's face it.... The Local Bands Today are ________.

sorry for this guys. pero eto talaga napapansin ko. this does not apply for all, ok?

1. gaya-gaya. (style ng tugtog at pananamit.. minsan pati yung tinutugtog na mismo..)
2. not well-versed in music theory. (pag nagjam kasama ang mga sikat na artist o well-versed musicians, ayun. kitang kita.)
3. doing music for the sake of money.. hence, the repetitive "lyrics and meanings" (para pumatok sa masa.. wala na yung may sense na lyrics.. or may hidden meanings)
4. nagpapagandahan o nagpapapogian lang.. para madiskubre at after sometime, maging "artista" (i really hate music artists turned actors/actresses)
5. panay ang pagrerevive ng kanta..

mula nang nagkamuwang ako sa mga bagay bagay, sa naabutan ko, 2006-2008 na talaga ang best year ng filipino bands. dun lumabas lahat ng solid na banda. that's just me.

just my 2 cents

And some local bands are just trying to be cool.

And then there are some who are really good.

Andami magagaling at masasabi kong may potential na maging artist talaga, pero hindi magkabanda. Let's start a philmusic workshop! haha OT.

Mostly Pinoy bands nowadays are striving to be on the mainststream but still there are bands who want to keep it down low. Got jobs at day play at night for fun not paid as an artist and sees music as a stress reliever not a job.

And I think that's cool with me.

Tumutugtog ka pa rin naman may pang bili ka pa ng gamit

- gaya-gaya. (style ng tugtog at pananamit.. minsan pati yung tinutugtog na mismo..)
- doing music for the sake of money.. hence, the repetitive "lyrics and meanings" (para pumatok sa masa.. wala na yung may sense na -     lyrics.. or may hidden meanings)
- nagpapagandahan o nagpapapogian lang.. para madiskubre at after sometime, maging "artista" (i really hate music artists turned actors/actresses)

very well said..  :cool:

Madaming Magagaling at Madaming Papogi :D
Sana yung mga Naguumpisa pagtapos nila sa mga pag cover, try nilang gawing materials yon para sa sarili nila o sa banda nila at wag lang silang mag stick sa pag cover although ok lang naman pero sayang kasi yung panahon at yung mga gamit na binili o yung bayad nila sa jammingan :D sana mas marami pang tumugtog o gumawa ng bago sa banda o sarili nila kahit walang bayad talagang RAK EN ROLL lang. ANG SAYA LANG NON :)
