Fly to Vegas if you’re a J. Lo fan
ON October 26, Jennifer Lopez will have a concert at the MGM Las
Vegas and one Filipino fan will be flown to Las Vegas to watch the
concert for free! Sony BMG Music Entertainment has hatched this
promotion with the MYX Music channel via the “Brave Fly Away”
contest.
Jennifer Lopez’s new pop album
is called Brave and it’s the Latina superstar’s second CD
release this year. Her first was the all-Spanish album Como Ama Una
Mujer, which made history as the highest-selling Spanish album
debut. For this hotly anticipated new album, Lopez returns to her
hip-hop roots, as evidenced by the CD’s first single, the up-tempo
“Do It Well.” Fans of Lopez’s classic dance singles will
definitely start grooving to her new hits like “Hold It Don’t
Drop It,” “Forever,” “Gotta Be There,” “Mile in These
Shoes” plus other catchy, upbeat dance tracks and a few ballads.
On the other side of the fence,
Lopez is busy promoting the movie El Cantante where she shares the
spotlight with real-life partner Marc Anthony. Both are currently on
tour at some of the hottest venues in the United States and Canada
to promote the film and their musical works. Few artists have
traveled so effortlessly from one artistic medium to another as
Lopez with her incredibly array of talent as an acclaimed movie
actress, a chart-topping musical artist and a fashion industry
entrepreneur. Get a copy now of Jennifer Lopez new album Brave, tune
in to MYX and who knows, you might be in Vegas before Halloween.
No one ever gets tired of
Barry Manilow
TIMELESS musical artist Barry
Manilow revisits the songs of the decade that launched his
career—the seventies. The Greatest Songs of the Seventies is the
next release of music giant Sony-BMG in a best-selling series of
tribute albums of popular music which already includes the fifties
and the sixties.
The new album is a fan’s dream
wish-list of favorites covering both sides of the Atlantic, from The
Beatles’ “The Long and Winding Road,” to Elton John’s
“Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word,” as well as a duet with
Melissa Manchester on Carole King’s “You’ve Got a Friend.”
Other selections include Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over
Troubled Water,” the “Hollies’s “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My
Brother,” Albert Hammond’s “It Never Rains in Southern
California,” and The Carpenters’ “(They Long To Be) Close To
You.”
Manilow’s tributes are
flawlessly performed and arranged, starting with a homage to Barbra
Streisand’s “The Way We Were,” Frankie Valli’s “My Eyes
Adored You,” the Bee Gees’ “How Can You Mend A Broken
Heart,” and the Christopher Cross masterpiece “Sailing.”
The 18-track CD also includes a
section called Acoustic Manilow. For the first time ever, new,
stripped-down acoustic versions of “Mandy,” “I Write The
Songs,” “Weekend in New England,” “Even Now,” “Looks
Like We Made It” and “Copacabana (At the Copa).”
Wildlife: Pupil’s
all-original CD
AFTER a very successful nationwide campaign
for their debut album Beautiful Machines, Pupil returns to the scene
with their much-awaited follow-up album, Wildlife, and is ready to
surprise listeners with the group’s newest, rock sound that is
totally its own.
With its carrier single
“Sala” already burning up the country’s rock music charts for
weeks even before the release date, Wildlife is definitely set to
revolutionize the OPM scene and turn it upside-down and inside out.
For this all-original 12-track
stunner, Ely Buendia (vocals, guitar), Yan Yuzon (guitars, vocals),
Dok Sergio (bass, vocals) and brand-new drummer Wendell Garcia
acquired the much sought-after services of producer Jerome Velasco
(also of Teeth, The Mongols, Daydream Cycle) to create a fresh
global sound for OPM rock. The monstrous result is one of the most
gargantuan sounding track records in Philippine music history.
Other sure-fire hits are also in
tow, such as “Monoblock,” “Talon,” “Sumasabay’ and fan-fave
“Disconnection Notice.” It also features the eagerly anticipated
release of “Set Me Apart,” which international cable TV
animation giant Animax adopted as its theme song, thereby flying
Pupil’s music out to broader international music markets in
Southeast Asia via a killer video filmed in Manila, animated in
Malaysia, and aired from Singapore.
Wildlife is out in stores now,
for all who live in the wild, under Sony BMG Music Entertainment and
is presented in cooperation with Red Horse Extra Strong Beer,
Information Gateway and Animax.
