& It Was U

Here are some few shot from the How to Dress Well gig last month. Another batch of ugly photos hahaha It was the first time I used my Olympus point and shoot got excited and used whatever film I got. I was stupid for using an expired ISO 200 film and didnt think of the low lighting condition at Bside and kept shooting without the flash on. stupid stupid stupid. Anyway, these are the decent ones. I guess.

That's Similar Object

and here's the amazing Eyedress. Loved the set. he's crazy. like crazily good.

flash finally!

How to Dress Well

I wish I had a voice as beautiful as Tom. Goosebumps every time he opens his mouth.

and he has an adorable, charming smile :)

Eyedress and Tom prolly expressing how they enjoyed each set.

Also met Rome aka No Rome which will be releasing an EP soon. Check out his infectious debut track here.

Tonight, love will be there for you

@howtodresswell one-off  gig in Manila from my cam phone!!! 

 similarobjects opened the show. You know the night's gonna be awesome if it's started with great front acts.

 Eyedress followed.

 This guy's going to be big. I swear. His kind of talent is rare.

 The main act. Tom aka How to Dress Well with his tech slash violinist. 

 That's the shadow my head! hahha

 Tom performs with this visual screen at the back showing  some gorgeous imagery and clips. This one here was Macaulay Culkin photographed by Terry Richardson for The Face magazine. 

 I had the best spot that night! Tom was literally in front me. He was tall!

Tom feelin it

 I was totally overwhelmed with his performance. He just sings well i thought I was listening to a recording. I just wish the set was longer but it's all good.

Will post some more pics from my point n' shoot cam once I have em developed. I hope I get some good shots. *crossfingers*

#mustlisten

Hello! Here are some tracks that made my October. Didnt blog that much the past month but I'll try to keep this updated starting now! :)

Let's start with one of my favorite releases this year- I Knew I Was Right About This.  It's from Eyedress' Beko release which you can still order here. It's a slow, drag tune that features a chilly vocals provided by an upcoming artist Louise Ferguson.  

I found this in my inbox, Stockholm-based shoegazers Marybelle with their beautiful track Star Horse from their debut EP Crush.


Indiepop band The Gentle Isolation released a demo version of an upcoming single entitled US Rock. I dont know if there's another EP or a full-length in the works but this one's a good start.


Everybody seems liking Tame Impala's 2012 release Lonerism and I cant think of any reasons why not to. The second single Feels Like We Only Go Backwards has that catchy hook even my 80 year old grandma sings along with it.


I really love this track here by Cologne-based DJ/musician Roosevelt. Check out his melodic tune Soleil. It makes me wanna dance :)


How about some Pogi Rock courtesy of the lads from Manchester- The 1975. And when I say pogi, I really mean it. Their track You has that Kings of Leon vibe with lesser shouting and more melodic. It's the closing song of their latest EP Sex. *google their images*


Im gonna end this post with All Eyes' All I Want. This hauntingly beautiful track is off of All Eyes' upcoming album Shelf Life.

MUST WATCH: Everything We Touch Turns Into Gold by Eyedress

Can I just say that this is the most stylish local music video released this year?

I Wanna Teleport To You

i just want you around all the time...

missing someone so much right now and this song by Eyedress sums up everything im feeling! download the lovely tune here

MUST WATCH: Teen Spirits by Eyedress

Here's a trippy music video for Eyedress' Teen Spirits. I dunno if I was like that when I was in my teens but this track, I like. Huh? hahaha This song is still part of the Half Japanese EP
