Sunset Sessions



We headed over to the Graphic Expo for a seminar on Indie Film making. Thanks Patrick for hooking me up! It was hosted by the talented Khavn De La Cruz. I haven't heard of him but thank God I did. He is amazing. We watched a couple of his short films and one of his indie film debut, "Mondo Manila". It was disgustingly beautiful! Just the way I like it....not for the faint-hearted though.


We went to Sunset Sessions at Fete de la Musique for some Afro-Brazilian unwinding. Great music and crowd! And lovely poy dancers! We had a few drinks and left to eat dinner at Collective!


 What a great chill night with friends...

Soul night


It was B-Side's 1st year anniversary, my Sister tagged me along with her to watch some local soul bands. I haven't fully appreciated soul/funk music yet but this did me justice.


We ate at this little Ramen shop called Wabi Sabi. But we just ate some veggie chips and milk tea because we no go there for Ramen.



A less known band that wow-ed me and especially my sister who seems relevant to her as she sings along to their handpicked cover songs. Generation gap?





I love how watching them took me back through time! I wouldn't be surprised if I see Lady Smith Black Mambazo dancing beside me.


...which sounded really Brazilian and ethnic. I loved! Combine Brazilian and Filipino, this is what you get. Magic.
Funny, how I've been following this band for quite some time but never actually had the chance to watch them live...'till last night.


Congrats B-Side!
