 PERFECTING MUSIC

August 2008

Named after the Buddhist mantra of perfecting practices, Paramita embodies this by valuing perfection with the music they produce. Paramita is composed of Ria Bautista on vocals and drums, Alsey Cortez on bass, and Marco De Leon on guitars. With the drummer also playing as the vocalist, this set-up definitely differentiates Paramita from other local bands.

Love and relationship are the main themes of this band’s music. And just like love, their music is indescribable, giving you room to experience the enigma. With the songs all penned by Ria, Paramita rightly captures the highs and lows of love and wraps them into a heart-pounding, rhythmic web – minus the mushiness. This gives Paramita the right kind of mix to cater to their diverse audience.

Despite being such a young band, Paramita tries to continue practicing the Buddhist mantra that inspired them to be who they are through their music of love and loss.

 Album Review: KAMIKAZEE New “MAHAROT”Album As Exhilirating and Intriguing As Their Live Set

by Universal Records


Here’s the newest and most awaited Kamikazee album titled “Maharot” -- one musical package as exhilirating and intriguing as the The song is actually a metaphor of true love that is sadly unrequited. The “Narda” music video directed by Ace Enriquez recently premiered on Myx with rave reviews. “Chicksilog” is another hit potential from the “Maharot” album released by Universal Records.

The band’s playful, restless and boundless energy; wild imagination and consistent creativity are very evident on songs like “Sobrang Init”, “A.I.D.S..”, “Shoot Dat Bol”, “Ambisyoso”, “Discoskwela”, “Apir Day”, “My Tender Bear” and “K.K.K.”

Kamikazee is Allan “Bords” Burdeos on drums. Jason “Puto” Astete on bass, Led Tuyay on guitars, Jomal Linao on guitars and second vocals, and Jay Contreras who performs his own stunts while on lead vocals.

The band first caught the alternative audience fancy through their first hit “Chinelas”. The song crossover to mainstream Pinoy music scene, so Kamikazee soon became a nationwide sensation.

Their indescribable stage antics and fine musicality have given them Best Live Act awards from different groups, including the NU Rock awards which also honored Allan as drummer of the year.

Kamikazee’s cover of Britney Spear’s “Lucky” gave them the Best Music Video plum at the MTV Pilipinas Music Awards 2003.
All band members are from the U.P. Fine Arts Department, so their common love for fun and music. It’s not surprising that the group conceptualized their album sleeve which features Eula Valdez in sexy poses, including on the “Maharot” “red hot” poster.

Kaye Abad supplied back-up vocals, while Chito Miranda wrote additional lyrics.
