Hey guys!
About nine months ago, myself and a bunch of friends from the local music scene released a various artist CD entitled, “The Better than Life Project”.
Here’s why you should pick up a copy:
- It wholly benefits the under-resourced children of Manila. Nope, not just 10%, not 50%, but the whole schlameal is being given to them via the Reach Youth Ministries. I'm not seeing a cent of the cashola, and I cant take credit for funding it either. Most of the resource for the project came through a Filipino-American community (my home church) in San Francisco called Bridgepoint Community Church.
- I wrote ALL the songs. Need I say more?☺ (Did you just feel a rush of blood to your head? hehehe.
- The awesome musicians. The album’s got Barbie Almalbis, Jay Durias, Naldy Gonzalez of Side A, Top Suzara, Radha, Pido, Chedi, Noah Krishna and Mike Luis, to name a few. And for you avid drummers out there, the great Benjie Mendez played on it.
- It's all ORIGINAL. For those of you tired of “Buttercup” you’ll appreciate this! If you're not tired of “Buttercup”, lets not even be friends. Hahaha, just kidding.
- Sshhh... There are some hidden tracks!
- Did I mention I wrote all the songs?
You can get the CD from Odyssey, House of Praise, and SM (I think). Here’s a tip though: if you get your copy from the House of Praise, more money goes to the kids. But if you cant find one, go ahead get it from Odyssey.
Here’s a two-song sampler to put some life into this blog ☺
Ciao for now,
