DJ TIESTO Live! In Manila 2013

"Beautiful World", "Sweet Things", "Elements of Life", "I Will Be Here", "Silence", "Work Hard Play Hard" and "We Own the Night" --- these are just some of the world smash hits created by Grammy nominee, legendary Dutch musician and record producer of Electronic Dance Music, and world-renowned professional DJ, Tiesto.

 

Tijs Michiel Verwest, more popularly known as Tiesto, began his DJ career by playing mostly New Beat and House Music in small clubs in his hometown in Breda, Netherlands. Tiesto then rose to popularity in the early 2000s after his performance at the Live at Innercity: Amsterdam RAI party, and the release of his first solo album entitled In My Memory. Since then, the Dutch musician has been making and producing award-winning EDM hits and albums, holding concert tours and parties all over the world, and receiving countless recognition for his music. One of Tiesto's albums, "Elements of Life", took the No. 1 spot on the Dutch album chart and on the Billboard Top Electronic Albums in the US, and was awarded Best Electronic Dance Album in 2008. One of Tiesto's most notable performances, on the other hand, was at the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, making him the very first DJ to play live on stage at an Olympic event. The legendary EDM record producer was also the very first DJ to rank No. 1 in the Top 100 DJs list by DJ Magazine for three consecutive years. He also received the Best International DJ Award in 2008 at the DJ Awards, and earned other titles such as the No. 1 DJ of 2008 and the Best DJ of All Time, both given by Mixmag magazine; the 40th Greatest Dutch Citizen of All Time and Officer of the Order of Orange -- Nassau by the Dutch Royalty in 2003; and International Dance4Life Ambassador in 2006. Tiesto's latest single “Take Me” featuring Kyler England is already a TOP FIVE Beatport hit. Listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Txk0RcZNVW8 . 

 

With a well-proven track record, there's no doubt that Tiesto is one of the most sought-after EDM DJs in the world. In fact, in the Philippines alone, Tiesto has played his tracks in front of his fans -- the country's hottest clubbers, EDM enthusiasts and personalities in two of the biggest and hippest dance arenas last 2008 and 2009. On October 3, 2013, Tiesto will be coming back to Manila for his very first concert party at the Big Dome featuring the fastest-rising, most exciting female Australian DJ, Tigerlily as special guest.

Former Westlife Frontman Shane Filan In Manila

It's been a year since Westlife made the final bow in their Goodbye Tour in 2012. We may not going to hear them perform as a group but former Westlife front man is now on his own. His first solo album, You and Me will come out in November.

 

For now, he will be on tour across Southeast Asia and making his first stop here in the Philippines. Shane felt overwhelm with the solo career. He still in good friends with the rest of his former boy band members and showed their support.

 

Even though he is Irish, he is more comfortable with western music. His type of music differs from his Westlife image. It is more like pop music. His music influences are Michael Jackson, Bryan Adams and |Garth Brooks.

 

Shane is still adjusting to his solo career and he admits he still needs to get used to it but since he needs to work and he is always focused on music, he gave it a shot and will see where it will take him.

 

About his songs, Shane said these are his mini-stories about his life. His song, Everything To Me is about his wife and family. He simply said that they are everything to him. Second to that are his fans. He was still overwhelmed about the reception of Westlife fans who supported him in this tour that they will be given a chance to see him perform the SkyDome, SM City North EDSA on the 28th at 6PM and The Podium the next day at 4PM.

Marion Aunor Album Launch

Marion Aunor may be related to the country’s own superstar, but she didn’t take advantage of the name as when she entered her original song “Do, Do, Do” at Himig Handog where she was recognized. Now, she released her self-titled debut album.

It includes her original songs (Fallen and Do, do, do) as well as her rendition to favorites (Just Give Me A Reason by Pink). After watching and hearing her songs continuously, I finally got to see her perform selective songs at A-Venue in Makati. 

The Album has total tracks of 12. What makes her music unique is her Blues inspired tunes. Her inspiration was drawn from the likes of Jason Mraz and Norah Jones.

THE BEATLES “ON AIR – LIVE AT THE BBC VOL. 2”

New 2-CD and Vinyl LP Collections feature 40 Performances

from The Beatles’ 1963-1964 BBC Radio Broadcasts

 

 

(New York, NY – September 16, 2013) Ten years ago today, on September 16th, 2003, four young men from Las Vegas left America for the first time to play their first ever London show, appearing fourth on the bill at Camden’s Dublin Castle. It was the first time they had played a gig outside of North America.

 

Fast forward to 2013, that band – The Killers – has gone on to sell over 20 million albums worldwide, headlined festivals across the globe, performed at The White House, and picked up myriad awards. Each of The Killers’ four studio albums has yielded some of the most amazing songs of the last decade, and, this summer, amidst various festival headlining shows all over the world, they reached a summit very few artists have ever managed:  headlining Wembley Stadium to an ecstatic capacity crowd of 70,000. These shows – from their masterful showing headlining this year’s Lollapalooza to their crowning achievement commanding the stage at Wembley – reaffirmed what millions everywhere already know:  The Killers have released some of the finest, most memorable, most loved songs of the last ten years, and they’re still going strong.

 

In celebration of their first decade together, The Killers will release Direct Hits on November 11th, 2013 under MCA Music (Universal Music Philippines).  A collection of singles from their four albums, plus two brand new songs, the album begins with the band’s breakthrough hit - and first song they wrote together – “Mr. Brightside.” It follows the group from debut album Hot Fuss and its further singles, “Somebody Told Me,” “Smile Like You Mean It,” and “All These Things That I’ve Done,” through Sam’s Town’s “When You Were Young,” “Read My Mind,” and “For Reasons Unknown,” via Day & Age’s singles, including massive 2008 hit, “Human,” and last year’s stunning Battle Born album singles, kicking off with “Runaways.”  A brace of brand new songs completes the set:  “Shot At The Night” was recorded with M83’s Anthony Gonzales, and will be released as a single on September 17th via iTunes (Listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Leo22AXLEXg). The video for the song was directed by Robert Schober and was shot entirely in Las Vegas.  “Just Another Girl,” meanwhile, was produced by long time Killers collaborator Stuart Price, who produced 2008’s Day & Age.

 

The deluxe edition of Direct Hits will additionally feature the original demo of “Mr. Brightside” and a new remix of “When You Were Young” by Calvin Harris, as well as Battle Born’s “Be Still.”  Full tracklisting is as follows:
