                    [Summary] => Definitely one of the most successful events last year was the World Pyro Olympics. It drew millions of spectators who flocked to the Esplanade (in Pasay City), to watch the most spectacular display of fireworks ever. Traffic was horrendous. The entire stretch of Macapagal Ave. down to Roxas Blvd. and stretching to EDSA was turned into a gigantic parking lot. As early as 4 p.m., traffic was already at a snail’s pace in Roxas Blvd. and Macapagal Ave.

                    [Summary] => Something old and something new inhabit the debut album of the young Filipino rock band 6cyclemind, Permission to Shine (BMG-Musiko), which indeed shines brighter than any rookie offering in the recent past, excluding the initial CDs of old "new" bands like the Mongols and Bamboo. 6cycle, at least on our first several hearings of their CD, have what it takes to be in the major league of the Pinoy pop league: a strong, guitar-laden sound, catchy hooks, a propulsive rhythm section, a distinctive vocalist and solid songwriting.

 We’re living in the age of  acoustic love and the adoration for the musically inept; it is the triumph of the no-talent and packaging over sound. Granted that a Nyoy Volante act will produce sweet, relaxing songs, it won’t go beyond that because acoustic sets have plenty of musical limitations.

The question now is if Kaya will be able to attain the sort of market interest that will turn it into a more successful version of Smokey Mountain for the new millennium.
