Ica Frias expresses her wariness of romantic commitment in the new song “Oh Honey”

Filipino singer-songwriter Ica Frias reflects on her fears of being vulnerable and intimate with someone in the new single “Oh Honey,” released under Off The Record.

The young artist delivers a soulful number brimming with hopeless romanticism and jazzy instrumentation. On “Oh Honey,” Ica is careful not to let her heart fall into the wrong hands, which might just crush it eventually.

The rising star explains, “The song Oh Honey is about the fear of falling in love with the person you’re quite unsure of. Regardless of what you feel for him or her, it’s normal to be cautious about being romantically committed tosomeone. You deserve to receive all the love you give, but it needs to be with the right person at the right time.”

The track was written by Ica herself, with the help of her friend Daniel Paringit. The latter also co-produced “Oh Honey” with Cluster Ng and Ricky Ilacad of OTR.

When asked about the musical direction for “Oh Honey,” Ica wanted a sonically arresting material that incorporates youthful sentiments with free-spirited melodies. She adds, “the whole vibe is countered by the upbeat treatment of the song, almost as if you’re making fun of yourself for seeing that person with rose-colored glasses.”

Ica Frias recently made a significant mark with the release of her first song, “Ayoko Na.” Upon the release of her debut single, the pop/folk/acoustic singer-songwriter landed on the cover of “Fresh Finds Philippines” and bagged the No. 1 spot on the said playlist. It also peaked at No. 36 in Viral 50 - Philippines.

Ica Frias’ “Oh Honey” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Off The Record.

James Arthur Releases Stunning New Single ‘Just Us’Taken From His Forthcoming New Album Bitter Sweet LoveOut January 26th, 2024 on Columbia Records

2024 Southeast Asia tour dates, available now!

Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore
Tickets On Sale HERE

Following his recent return with new tracks ‘Blindside’ & ‘A Year Ago’, and the announcement of his fifth, brand new studio album Bitter Sweet Love - out January 26th, 2024 on Columbia Records - multi-Platinum artist James Arthur releases new single ‘Just Us’ - listen here and watch the music video here.

James delivers a stunning, powerful ballad about realising the true meaning of life - true love, loving ourselves, our families, communities and being there for them.

“Just Us is a song in which I confess to running away from what really matters and getting lost in the pursuit of validation from external things,” James explains. “It’s about chasing a hedonistic, hollow life. Realising the true meaning of life which is of course about true love, loving ourselves, our families and our communities and being there for them.”

Bitter Sweet Love is James back to his very best, producing thirteen bites of world class music. After being on stage, it struck him how his fifth album should sound. A sold-out crowd was singing along to his hits, immersed in the emotion that James could hear in his own voice.

Within days of the tour ending in the States, James began sessions with different producers to see who could click with his vision. His final stop was in L.A. with Steve Solomon, with whom he co-wrote his 2016 megahit ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’.

Back in Britain, James attempted to write with more producers, but none came close to his bond with Steve, who flew over to finish the album at Miloco Studios in South London last summer, and produce a mature body of work, full of depth and oozing the impeccable songwriting quality that has defined James’s esteemed career to date.

The Middlesbrough-born, recent Brit Billion-certified artist has scored 4 top 10 albums, with 2016’s Back From The Edge hitting the Number 1 spot and over his career has collaborated with the likes of Anne-Marie, Sigala, Rudimental, Marshmello & many more.

James is one of the world’s biggest streaming artists, with over 38 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone. ‘Say You Won't Let Go’ became his breakthrough hit in the US. It was officially the UK's most streamed song in 2016 and has gone on to be enjoyed via 4 billion streams while the song's official video has achieved 1.5 billion views on YouTube. Earlier this year, the track became his first RIAA Diamond Single with 10 million certified units – making James one of just 100 recipients of an RIAA Diamond Single certification in the programme's history.

Other huge hit singles include: ‘Impossible’, ‘Can I Be Him’, ‘Sun Comes Up’, ‘Naked’, ‘Empty Space’, ‘Rewrite The Stars’, ‘Falling Like the Stars’, ‘Train Wreck’ and ‘Lasting Lover’, which are all certified platinum records. The song Cars Outside is currently becoming another global hit for James.

“The more albums you make and the more success you have, the more the pressure tends to be upon you,” James Arthur shares. But I genuinely felt like a kid again, just making music I loved, not worried about trying to please everyone.”

James Arthur will play the following Southeast Asia dates this year: Tickets on sale  HERE.

Dates:

Nov 29​​Bangkok, Thailand (Union Hall)

Dec 01​​Jakarta, Indonesia (The Kasablanka)

Dec 03​​Birmingham, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (ZeppKuala Lumpur)

Ben&Ben hopes to uplift the world with acoustic version of “Courage”

The Filipino band encourages listeners to reach for their dreams and goals in life despite dealing with personal tribulations

Ben&Ben asserts the power of surviving personal setbacks in life with another inspiring anthem.

The Filipino folk-pop outfit dedicates the stripped-down version of their new song “Courage (acoustic version)” to the dreamers who are struggling to pull up the strength to confront an unforgiving world.

“The past few months have been mentally tough for the band, with challenges surrounding us and driving us to low points and times of discouragement,” the chart-topping band shares in a press statement. “These valleys have been the inspiration for Courage. We realized that, as visceral as the feeling of being hopeless may be for us, we wanted to channel it into an uplifting piece of music because it is something a lot of people are going through now but have a hard time verbalizing.”

Out today via Sony Music Entertainment, the stripped-downnumber is penned by Miguel and Paolo Benjamin and produced by frequent collaborator Jean Paul Verona, who wanted to focus on a back-to-basics approach while commanding the listener’s attention in every conceivable way—from the powerful lyrics down to the warm melodies.

The multi-awarded ensemble explains, “We went back to our roots for this one, wherein we let the reverberations of the acoustic guitars envelope the harmonies we did for the vocals. We kept it simple for the first release of Courage because we wanted to get the message of the song to our listeners as soon as possible.”

Taking a confident stride back to their distinct brand of intuitive intimacy, Ben&Ben’s “Courage (acoustic version)” offers a compelling snapshot of their journey as individuals and artists, one that isn’t necessarily perfect and full of wins but always clings on to perseverance and courage in a bid to make the world a better place to live in.

Ben&Ben looks forward to recording and arranging the final version of the song in the coming weeks. According to the nine-piece collective, this is the first time in their career that they’ll be premiering the track in a form that usually only the band members hear, which is the stripped-down version.

“Then, we’ll build it up together as a band as the weeks and months go by, and you’ll be hearing more of it as it happens,” the acclaimed band adds.

Ben&Ben has recently made headlines for bagging seven nominations at the 2023 Awit Awards, including the following categories: Song of the Year, Best Performance by a Group Artist, Best Pop Recording, Best Alternative Recording, Best Traditional/Contemporary Folk Recording, and Music Video of the Year. The Paninindigan Kita act is currently on a world tour, with remaining stops in Sydney and Dubai this month.

Filipino band of Mercury rides the soul train with ease in new single “That’s Why”

The track pays tribute to the bygone era of Motown, classic R&B, and funk while giving it a more contemporary feel

Filipino alternative pop/soul trio of Mercury introduces a fresh and exhilarating era with the release of their new single “That’s Why”—out today via Sony Music Entertainment.

Updating their sonic direction with bits and pieces of retro-soul, Motown, and ‘70s funk, the band pays tribute to the sounds of a bygone era while taking listeners on a luscious blast of timeless grooves and smooth-talking.

“In terms of direction, we think that we’re in a phase where we want to try out new things and discover what else we can pull off together, regardless if the sound is different from the other previous releases we had. And we’re enjoying having to flow around wherever we go,” shares the multi-faceted, genre-blurring band. “That’s the essence of what of Mercury really is, just like the liquid element.” 

According to the press statement, “That’s Why” was written in hyperbolic terms as their own way of sharing the most illogical, non-feasible reasons for loving a person, be it your partner or significant other. A love song in its purest form, the soulful track rides the romantic train with smooth production courtesy of frequent collaborator knōwmaadand guitarist Luigi Aganinta, and a swoon-worthyarrangement that brims with skill, class, and discipline.

“The whole band with knōwmaad wrote the lyrics, and I guess it was inspired from my own perspective on my love for my wife,” of Mercury’s Nathan Huang shares. “Originally, the title ‘That’s Why’ came from knōwmaadwho gave us a file of production ideas titled daswhy.”

GLOBAL SUPERSTAR STEVE AOKI JOINS FORCES WITH MEXICAN PHENOM DANNA PAOLA FOR NEW SINGLE“PARANOIA”

“PARANOIA” Available Here

Renowned music producer and multi-faceted entrepreneur, Steve Aoki, brings a new collaboration with Mexican powerhouse artist Danna Paola for his new single, “Paranoia.” The song and its official video are now available on all digital platforms. 

In a music video that takes us back to the electronic music scene of the 90's, we find Steve Aoki sharing the stage with Danna Paola, bouncing between verses in both English and Spanish while the audience enjoys a fusion of Aoki's euphoric synthesizers and Paola’s dynamic vocalization. With “Paranoia,” Steve Aoki once again exhibits his innate ability to create music that showcases his musical prowess and continues to solidify him as one of the most sought after visionaries in the world. 

The globally renowned artist and producer is a trailblazer in Latin and Dance music collaborations, having released hits with top Latin artists including Daddy Yankee, Maluma, Natanael Cano, Nicky Jam, TINI, and most recently with Regional Mexican music songstress Ángela Aguilar for “Invítame A Un Café.” The unique collaboration showcases the versatility of two of the most distinguished artists in their respective genres, blending elements of Regional Mexican music with Steve’s innovative and distinctive style. 

Steve Aoki closed out a memorable 2022 with the anticipated release of his full-length album HiROQUEST: Genesis. The album features collaborations from Taking Back Sunday, Kane Brown, Georgia Ku, Bryce Vine, Santa Fe Klan, Lil Xan, Goody Grace, and more.

ABOUT STEVE AOKI:
Counting nearly 3 billion music streams to his name, Steve Aoki is a true visionary. Billboard described the 2x-GRAMMY-nominated music producer, artist, fashion designer, entrepreneur, NFT futurist and Dim Mak Records founder as “one of the most in-demand entertainers in the world.”  A Guinness World Record holder for the “Most Traveled Musician in a Single Calendar Year,” Aoki has performed at nearly every top festival around the world, including Coachella, Ultra Music Festival, Lollapalooza, Fuji Rock Festival, Tomorrowland and Electric Daisy Carnival. In 2022, Aoki also graced recent covers of Entrepreneur Magazine, Electronic Musician, and Adweek as their “Visionary of the Year.”

After unveiling four Neon Future albums, Aoki recently released HiROQUEST: Genesis, featuring collaborations with Taking Back Sunday, Mod Sun, Kane Brown and more.
 
Aoki approaches each new endeavor with the same sense of dedication he’s put into his past achievements, including the Grammy-nominated Netflix documentary I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead (2016) and his memoir BLUE: The Color of Noise(2019). In 2012, he also founded THE AOKI FOUNDATION to support organizations in brain science and its research.
