(Wanna read on? If no... Skip it! and lets go straight to the music!)

Born from a musically talented mother in terms of singing, composing, playing piano and guitars, (Who was once a Folk Singer in the late 70’s), A ladies man for a father. JyEL started way back the 90’s as a guitarist for the Marikina-Based hardcore group G-Spot whom was responsible for the song “Fire in the Hole” which was the soundtrack of the computer on-line game Counter Strike. JyEL with G-Spot, won the “Breakthrough Artist Award” in ABS-CBN’s Wudstak 2001 which was held in Davao City. G-Spot disbanded years later after their single “Master’s Son”, a song inspired from the conflicts of Muslims and Christians in Mindanao at that time. JyEL went on doing session guitars for different bands afterwards.

Enter circa 2000, JyEL moved to his Dad’s town in Lucban, Quezon and due to the undying passion for music, he collaborated with great talents in the said town and had given birth to some home-grown acts and music of the said town. The local scene flourished and gave way to new acts.

Life had been so wasted for him after some time. JyEL had been a total “substance-abuser and delinquent”. He lived his life on drugs. The music continued as the drugs went on but it all came to a sudden halt. JyEL was diagnosed with Cardiac Arrhythmia; his heart stopped beating normally last 2005 due to long-term drug abuses. This rocker’s heart currently runs on a 3.7 Li-ion AFXDR Battery. And for the record, He currently has one functional lung left. Delinquent as it may seem, JyEL still managed to put his Faith in direction with the help of a new environment. The Church. Though JyEL is not your typical Christian; He has these “liberated” and “radical” interpretations of subjects on Christianity. Nonetheless, still a man of faith. 

With the said condition, JyEL started to write songs of faith, He learned to sing. He wrote and recorded music at the confines of Philippine General Hospital. JyEL was a patient for a painful 2 straight years. He wrote the songs “Kapoz”, “Then You Came” and “Sabi Niya” at this time. These where his first faith-driven tracks and was back-up by different ministries both Protestants and Catholics. JyEL at this time had been active in sharing his testimony… through Rock.

Enter 2007; despite of the poor health conditions, JyEL got in touch with old colleagues from Quezon Province to start a new band. If ever, this will be his first full band wherein he’ll stand in as a vocalist and not a guitarist. At first it went well but issues came and member line-ups where altered. JyEL spearheading the band reformatted its music from the mass pop to a more personal attack of rock; And Sensitivo came into fruition. 

Then JyEL, a musician by heart, entered the scene. Armed with his passion of music, JyEL started creating music which gave birth to Sensitivo’s debut CD entitled SENSITIVO:“Isa’t kalahating araw”, released in 2007, under GUSI Records which was produced by Don Ramon Eleazar; mixed and mastered by the distinguished audio engineer Angee Rozul.

Within just 4 years of “Sensitivizing” at different circuits of the metro, key cities and provinces, JyEL was blessed with Four National awards and Two International citations.

Today, In between writing and recording for Sensitivo – JyEL also ventured into doing radio commercials, and is also active in working on solo projects. Soon to watch out for is his first Solo Album wherein he’ll collaborate with his friends in the industry. In addition, JyEL is an advocate for the revolution of Philippine Indie Music alongside with his contemporaries at IndiePinoy Co. He’s tagline is “Indie is the New Mainstream”.

To this time, no positive developments in JyEL’s terms of health had been realized. He still continues to rock rock stages until his last gasp of breath. 

And I quote him: “Kaya ko pa, kase gusto ko pa… mas panalo ka kung gagamitin ko ang hininga at talento ko sa pagpapalaganap ng inspirasyon kesa iimbak ko lang ito at walang ibang makikinabang. Eto na tagay mo”. (Ah yes… he is a regular drinker.)
