I thought my Spotify Wrapped for 2021 would be a bit more diverse vs. last year as I tried to listen to more artists, playlists, and even more Original Pilipino Music (OPM). Alas, to my surprise, it’s pretty much the same as last year with my Top 5 songs occupied by just one artist. (Take […]
I have to admit, I didn’t like this song much when it first came out. I was still attached to the album Traveler – but after several plays, I have come to appreciate this song, much like Shukumei. I like how it’s very energetic. This is a song I like to play right after waking […]

This is the song that catapulted Higedan into the charts – cementing their position in Japan’s music industry in 2019. I fell in love right after the first listen with the piano, the lyrics, and the emotions conveyed by the song overall. The aesthetic music video also added to the impact. Everything about this song […]

I can’t exactly remember when I started liking Japanese pop culture. Was it the first time I watched Voltes V or Dragon Ball back when I was just 7 years old? However, I vividly remember the first time I liked a Japanese song. They used to play it on the radio back then. It was […]
