69 Filipino songs that rocked my life in 2010s (Part 6)

It's a shame that it took me two months to finish this personal project. I initially had this in mind since late November and worked on the draft by mid-December. Anyway, here it goes... 

Ten years ago, I tried coming up with a list of my favorite songs of the decade here in this blog. Unfortunately, I ended up shelving it as I got more busy with college studies and post-disaster recovery. 

Fast-forward to present, I became a wanderer in the locality's live music scene – a  far cry from the early years where I dig more of mainstream and foreign stuff.  Though I'm not hating at all, because exciting times took place during the 2010s, with KPop sweeping the world. Of course, the Westerners are still there, and each country making their music heard further across the globe thru Spotify.

Meanwhile, several artists from the synth-pop and hip-hop managed to get across the board – not only in the locality but also in my own preferred jukebox. Here's the fifth part of my nicest-choice songs of the decade.

Mastaplann, one of the Philippines' finest rap groups, just had a lot of gigs as part of their anniversary celebration, and being part of a Revolver Productions' event at 19 East in Muntinlupa City is just one of their stops; proving not just the preference of the producers, but giving everyone the does of their nostalgic medicine.

It was a blockbuster Saturday evening wherein events are like “here, there, and everywhere”; making the nightlife and music scene alive and vibrant after a while (Who says our local music died in the first place?!). 

And amidst the controversial surrounding the word usage and ticket prices during their preparation phase, MCA Music was still able to stage the event called Get Music Indie-Go at the Mall of Asia arena. Yes, despite the delay of time schedule, lack of needed hype, and watching attendance spanning around hundreds of people.

I have seen this kid a year ago, at the 2015 Fete dela Musiquie indie stage. Along with Curtismith, this guy really sounded new to me as the last time I checked myself I was digging some other dope locals like One3D, Plazma, Skarm, and Cameltoe.
