I just want to put up a quick rundown on this fight, since one of my friends are apparently spoiling me out (just kidding, Gab!) during that online conversation we have last Sunday morning.

As much as sinusuportahan ko ang administasyon ng presidente natin, kaso kailangan yata maghinay-hinay ang Kuya natin. Kailangang may magsa-ayos nito sa kanyang lipon sa communications office. (Sorry, Martin Andanar, ngunit kailangan mong maghigpit sa pananala ng impormasyon at pagbibigay nito sa madla.)

Newsletter: Autotelic Releases Major Label Debut Album "Papunta Pabalik"

10/07/2016 10:02:30 AM

Author's note: From being a big-named band in the indie scene, Autotelic lived up both to their name and the expectations from their cult followers as the pop band is now poised to be the next big thing in the music industry after being signed by the major label MCA Music Inc.

And barely months later, Josh Villena and co., has been making waves in such a shorter-than-expected span of time. They released a new single Gising in the major platforms in July; weeks later, their music video has been launched and gained massive reception from the audience by making it to the Myx Daily Hit Chart (Pinoy Edition) and amassing the top spot at All Good Radio of Jam 88.3 later on.

And this past Saturday, 1 October 2016, Autotelic launched their album titled “Papunta Pabalik,” turning themselves from the what has been a indie and dance pop rock band into something they now called as “Iyak Sayaw.”

The Scene Around: Autotelic "Papunta Pabalik" Album Launch

Almost two years ago, when I first hear them live in a gig at Route 196, I already had made a prophecy in mind. This band will be the next big thing in the pop music scene soon. (At least, if not right now.)

And with a music market and an anniversary gig happening around Makati City, these dudes will ne the standout for the evening. And why not? It's true enough.

It was a night to remember last Saturday at B-Side at The Collective as MCA Music presents the Autotelic's Papunta Pabalik album launch.

Sa kaliwa't kanang patutsadahan, sa kani-kanilang mga krusada, may isang anggulong lumabas: sex video diumano ng isang senadora na sa sobrang tanda na ay hindi naman na chix ang datingan.
