OPM Sundays / June 2023

“Starting Five” is a collection of the future pop/RnB sound that popularized Nieman.
These are a collection of songs from his Instagram “Draft Day” series. What started as drafts and
ideas were brought to life with full production. A play on basketball terminology, “Starting Five”
takes five of those drafts to the main stage. From heartbreak to first loves, this album covers it all!

Joe Cruz & The Cruzettes - Love Song (1973)

For the last few years, I've been lightweight collecting Original Pilipino Music, or OPM, on vinyl. Problem is, OPM is not very easy to find in the States, so i can only dig when i’m in the Philippines. When my man ET IV asked me to play his party ASTIG, I was hyped, but also kinda nervous because I wasn’t sure if I even had enough records for an entire set. But I did, and had a blast playing some of my fav OPM joints out in public! This mix was inspired by the set I dropped that night... Listen to ASTIG, a mix of sweet Pinoy Soul, Manila Disco, and classic OPM from the 70's and 80's. Enjoy!

ASTIG: A TRIBUTE TO OPM

Originally posted on March 3, 2008 on UpsetterSound.com’s Los Relics Radio curated by good friend filmmaker, DJ, musician, urban scholar, skater and family man Lakandiwa de Leon.  His call out to selector friends to make mixes to share for Los Relics allowed me to share my growing collection of Pinoy (Filipino) centric records.  Not a lot of venues I can play VST or Eva Eugenio, but I can always play Bataan or Barabas though. 

So, one restless night at 2am I started pulling records of varying styles, origins, languages and eras but all had one thing in common, all were made by Filipinos (full blooded or not) whether solo or part of the band.  Whether it was the Morales brothers as part of Spain’s psych-funk band Barabas or Afro-Filipino Joe Bataan from Spanish Harlem, beat music from the Rocky Fellers in the US or Jaime Salazar from Cebu, Philippine dream pop from Rey Valera or blissful 70’s pop from Apo Hiking Society and Cinderella, or from the Bay Area, soul wailer Sugar Pie DeSanto and ethno-funk heavies Dakila, all of them Pinoys and all make up this diasporic mixtape.

Two years after recording this rambling and rather technically flawed mix I have made it somewhat of a mission to help re-introduce Philippine popular music to an audience that would not normally seek them out as well as re-contextualize the music for people to appreciate and enjoy again or for the first time.  A tad grandiose, but I will attempt to, at least.

One funky track at a time if I have to! ;-)

Anyways, hope you check it out and share it with friends.
