MAIN ARTISTS:

CARLOS CASTAÑO is an independent musician from the Philippines. His music is a reflection of the multitude of stories that he’s accumulated over the years. Moving back to the city three years ago, he started writing material for his first album City Light Soundtrack, a 12-song all-original release that was launched in November of 2010 with commercial and critical success around the region and all the way to the United States and Canada. A year later he begun producing and writing material for his second album, City Light Soundtrack 2: Permanence, which was released locally last March 21, 2012 and internationally the following month. A few months after, he released an EP called "All the Beautiful, Different Things" while on tour. He also begins touring the region to support his upcoming release, City Light Soundtrack 3: Back to Color, Back to Safety with confirmed dates in 6 countries.

BRISOM started off as nothing more than an avenue to record material that was a little more personal than usual and is now a full blown live performance act. Brisom is a project of Brian Sombero, a collection of songs that talk about his travels while away from the industry that he has grown up in,now made ready available for you. Because no great song deserves to go unheard, and no great story deserves to be left untold.

ENRIQUE DE DIOS is a musical chameleon. Effortlessly switching between multiple instruments in multiple genres between multiple bands, he is always looking for new sounds and stories to share. One of the most sought-after sessionists in Manila, he has played for bands such as: Indio I, P.O.T. Put3ska, BrownMan Revival, Sinosikat and many more. Currently, he plays for Kjwan, Brigada (samba bateria) and Out of Body Special. Yet he is most at ease simply singing his own songs, balancing head and heart and soul in a way both unusual and familiar.
