Sorry for my long absence

November 24, 2005

Hi guys.

Sorry for my very long absence online, because I’ve been very busy with my work these days. You know, all those deadline stuff. I apologize. :(

But don’t worry, by next week I’ll be doing my blog updates. And someone contributed his own server to host my multimedia files, so I’m going to do some major file uploads. I thank Lam very much for his generosity. :-)

Lyrics and Chords: “Pinoy Ako” (Pinoy Big Brother theme)

November 9, 2005

Looks like I’m jumping ship, hehehe… :-P

Just kidding. :-)

I really like the reality show Pinoy Big Brother, but I don’t have the chance to watch it except during weekends sometimes. In particular I like the theme song Pinoy Ako by the local band Orange and Lemons.

As a music enthusiast I managed to transcribe the chords and tablatures myself from the song, using my guitar at home. I strived to make the chords, tabs and lyrics as accurate as possible. I’m going to share them all with you. I hope you enjoy. :-)

Saving an Eraserheads website

November 2, 2005

Read first my article on Maling Akala and Reggae.

While still on the subject of Eraserheads, I observed that the articles about the Eraserheads are getting scarcer and scarcer on the Web. Fortunately, the band managed to have their own Wikipedia page; however, the page offered only a bit of info about the band.

I believe that the formation of the Eraserheads is a monumental mark in the history of modern Philippine music. The Eraserheads is sort of “the Philippines’ Beatles” in terms of popularity, creativity, musical style, and even socioeconomic status. (All four Eraserheads members came from the “working class” (i.e., they’re not wealthy people when they started the band, they’re just “common class” people) just like the four members of the Beatles, although George Harrison is a bit well-off among the Fab Four.) Now that the band is gone, all references to them become important memorabilia and thus must be preserved whenever possible. (Isn’t it obvious that I’m an Eraserheads fan? Hehehe…)

I managed to get a working cache of a dead Eraserheads fansite, the Circus website. The Circus website contains a lot of info about the Eraserheads, including the origin of the band, some timelines, news, and pictures. (See also Circus’ Eraserheads database.) I got it through the miracles of the Wayback search engine. The Wayback search engine caches whole ancient websites, websites that are defunct by now but can still be accessible because of Wayback’s archives. Not all pages of Circus have been preserved, though; that’s why I also rely on Google’s cache, like the Maling Akala/Ultraelectromagneticpop interview I referred earlier.

Enjoy! :-)
