    To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the release of their debut album, HONNE have announced ‘HONNE — 10’, a special re-recording project featuring stripped-back, reimagined versions of some of their most beloved songs. The new 12-track album revisits material from the duo’s first two albums, presenting the songs in an intimate, minimal setting that highlights their lyrics and emotional core, while capturing the honesty and warmth that have defined HONNE’s music over the past decade.

    Reflecting on the project, HONNE share: “We’ve been sitting on this for a while, and we’re really excited to finally share it with you. To mark 10 years of HONNE, we went back to the songs that started everything, recording stripped-back acoustic versions from our first two albums. Spending time with these songs again reminded us why we started HONNE in the first place, and why this music still means so much to us.”

    Since releasing their first song, “Warm on a Cold Night”, HONNE’s journey has taken them far beyond anything they could have imagined. What began as a single late-night track from humble recording sessions in London quickly grew into a global career, encompassing sold-out tours, multiple albums, and a devoted international fanbase. “’Warm on a Cold Night’ set us off on an incredible journey,” the band add. “It has been the most beautiful adventure, taking us to places we always dreamt of visiting, bringing us immense joy and happiness—not only because we were fulfilling our teenage dreams, but because we could see how much comfort our songs were bringing others.”

    The anniversary campaign begins with a newly re-recorded version of the duo’s debut single, “Warm on a Cold Night (10 Years)”, which is out now. “This song always felt jazzy and late-night to us, so we leaned into that feeling with this new version. And yes, a familiar voice returns—our old friend Tommy Inglethorpe.”

    The full 12-track album, ‘HONNE — 10’, will be released on May 15, 2026. Looking back on a decade of music, the band add: “We love these songs with all our hearts. They’ve been the soundtrack to our lives for the last 10 years.” The reimagined album stands as both a celebration and a thank you—a reflection of where HONNE began, how far they’ve come, and the deep connection they continue to share with their fans. In addition, HONNE will take these new versions on the road in 2026, with a soon-to-be-announced tour performing a stripped-back and intimate set in seated theatres worldwide.

    More details on the release and live dates will be announced soon.

    Why “NOBODY” Is a Fun, Feel-Good Animated Film That Captures You with Its Tale Opens in PH Cinemas on February 4!

    Nobody expects much from a pig, a toad, a weasel, and a gorilla, but that’s exactly what makes NOBODY such a delightful, fun animated 2D film this 2026. Witness it on the big screen starting February 4.

    NOBODY is about the adventure of these four nameless little demons who leave their ordinary lives on Mount Langlang, setting them on a rollercoaster ride journey where they experience danger, discovery, and unexpected growth of themselves.

    Here’s why NOBODY captures audiences with its tale:


    Four Loveable Underdogs
    The pig, toad, weasel, and gorilla are individually unique yet loveable characters, despite being underdogs. Their distinct personalities, flaws, and quirks bring comedic antics that drive them toward their goals. Although they are neither legendary nor powerful, they are clever, resilient, and their determination makes them both relatable and endearing. Along their journey, these unlikely “heroes” show that being a nobody doesn’t mean you can’t make a difference because sometimes, you are THAT difference.

    Animation and Hand-Drawn Style
    NOBODY’s 2D animation style, with its lush hand-drawn visuals and watercolor stroke aesthetics, has caught the attention of early critics and viewers of the film, as it blends traditional techniques while presenting the feel of classic Chinese landscape painting, perfect for its waggish and mystical setting. NOBODY pays homage to its cultural roots while giving a playful twist to tales like Journey to the West.

    The Heart and Soul
    The pig, the toad, the weasel, and the gorilla may seem flawed and often underestimated, yet their dynamic turns everyday mischief into shared purpose, trust, and heartfelt moments, making their journey chaotically entertaining, funny, and touching. What starts as an adventurous chase for recognition becomes a heartfelt exploration of bravery, learned through laughter, failure, and the unwavering companionship of these four.

    NOBODY’s heart lies in the laughter that opens space for tenderness, and in how courage and friendship reshapes oneself, while the soul is the belief that bravery and kindness make anyone extraordinary, and that even “nobodies” have stories worth telling.

    Prepare yourself to laugh out loud, and get ready for a heartfelt journey that redefines what it means to be a “nobody.”

  • INDIE POP TRAILBLAZERS PREP DROP BLISSFUL FUNK FLOOR FILLER “DO WHAT YOU GOTTA”

    INDIE POP TRAILBLAZERS PREP DROP BLISSFUL FUNK FLOOR FILLER “DO WHAT YOU GOTTA”

    FEATURING TAIWANESE ICONS SUNSET ROLLERCOASTER AHEAD OF FORTHCOMING EP ‘ONE DAY IN THE SUN’ DUE OUT MARCH 20TH!

    January 29th, 2026 — Philippines — English four-piece indie-pop band PREP return with their new single “Do What You Gotta”, featuring Taiwanese megastars Sunset Rollercoaster. The track unfolds as a warm, blissful funk floorfiller, all about new beginnings, and trying to find love wherever you can. Smooth, understated, and emotionally grounded, the collaboration brings together two bands whose shared sensibility blurs borders and genre lines. Fans can stream the new single HERE.

    The single arrives as the lead release from PREP’s upcoming EP, ‘One Day in the Sun’, slated for March 20th. The EP will be available on vinyl, with pre-orders now open via the band’s official merch store HERE. The release marks a significant moment for a band whose global footprint is increasingly defined by their devoted Southeast Asian audience. PREP’s influence runs deep across Southeast Asia, where their blend of indie pop, soul, and retro influences has resonated powerfully with fans across the region. Partnering with Sunset Rollercoaster, one of Taiwan’s most influential modern bands, further solidifies PREP’s connection to Asia and reflects a shared musical language that transcends borders.

    PREP – “Do What You Gotta” (feat. Sunset Rollercoaster) [Official Visualizer]

    Speaking on the collaboration, vocalist Tom shares: “It feels like this Sunset Rollercoaster collaboration has been a long time coming. We almost finished a song with them in London a couple of years ago; then Kuo performed with us in Taipei last year, and we went back to their studio afterwards for a long night of playing and talking about all sorts of ideas. But as soon as we had this song for the EP, we knew it was the one. At some point this year, we need to be on a stage playing this song with all of them.“

    Llywelyn adds: “Sunset Rollercoaster are perhaps the one other band in the world closest to us… They’re part of this scene that’s based in Taiwan, Japan and Korea – bands doing stuff that’s in our sort of world. It’s a scene that doesn’t really exist in the same way in Europe, and a lot of it is based around City Pop, which is Japanese pop music from the ’80s. That, as much as ’70s American acts, is where we’ve naturally gone to as a band.“

    “Do What You Gotta” arrives at a high point in PREP’s global momentum. The band has amassed over380 million streams across DSPs and was recently ranked among the top 25 pop soul artists in the world (Chartmetric). They have previously completed sold-out tours across Southeast Asia, including a successful 2024 Asia run, during which they played shows in Bangkok, Taipei, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, and Manila. In 2023, they performed at VERY Festival in Thailand, followed by a series of headline shows in China, before closing out the run at Clockenflap in Hong Kong. Southeast Asia remains a key stronghold for the band, where audience growth continues to outpace other regions. On the digital front, their viral cover of Harry Styles’ “As It Was” has garnered over 5.8 billion views and 1.6 million TikTok creations, underscoring their massive online reach. PREP’s top global audiences rank #1 Indonesia, #2 Thailand, #3 Philippines, #5 Malaysia, and #7 Taiwan, with top listener cities including Bangkok, Jakarta, Quezon City, Taipei, Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur, solidifying the band as one of the region’s most beloved indie-pop acts.

    This new single showcases a cross-regional collaboration that reflects not just where PREP are from, but where their music truly lives, leading into their highly anticipated forthcoming EP—a record that fuses jazz, West Coast soul, 1980s studio polish, Japanese City Pop, and a sound that is unmistakably contemporary.

    Who are they? Just Nobody…
    Nobody knows? No! It’s NOBODY!
    The all-time No.1 2D Animated film in China, NOBODY, comes to the Philippine cinema this February 4!

    As of January 26, NOBODY holds a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter, and it is celebrated for its humor and inspiring tale of these overlooked heroes. Its impressions signal an appreciation for 2D animation rooted in cultural heritage blending satire, folklore, and emotional realism.

    Early critics and audiences have praised NOBODY for its hand-drawn animation and ink-wash-inspired art style, describing it as a feast for the eyes and a delight for its characters and creative world-building. They also commended how the film balances humor and heart, bringing charm to each little demon throughout their adventures.

    Don’t let their appearance and size fool you, these four little demons pack a big punch of heart and fun. These four nameless little demons — a pig, a toad, a weasel, and a gorilla, set off on a wild, fun-filled journey, discovering courage, friendship, and the extraordinary power of being nobody. Their witty camaraderie and emotional impact redefine heroism, showing empathy, perseverance, and humility can exist without the need for recognition, yet extraordinary. Through their bumpy, eventful adventures, you won’t be just entertained, you will cheer and root for them at every twist and turn of their journey.

    Official Synopsis:
    On the remote Mount Langlang, four nameless little demons — a pig, a toad, a weasel, and a gorilla — live quiet, overlooked lives. Unnoticed by the world, they are neither powerful nor heroic. One day, they embark on a daring journey, mimicking the legendary Tang Monk’s pilgrimage to the West, hoping to gain strength, recognition, and a sense of purpose.

    Along the way, they face dangers, encounter evil forces, and are tested in courage and wisdom. In the end, they defeat a formidable enemy, yet lose their magical abilities and return to ordinary animal forms.

    Though they do not achieve legendary fame, they earn respect and gratitude from those they helped, proving that even a “nobody” can accomplish extraordinary deeds.

    Nobody is too small to make a difference! Join the four nameless little demons in NOBODY and follow their journey in PH cinemas, February 4!

    Another fan-favorite is back, Wuxian, with heartwarming moments with Hei that bring charm and fun. However, a new conflict arises…will he be able to clear his name?

    With the introduction of a new character, Lù Yě, a former apprentice of Wuxian, teams up with Hei to shed light on the mystery behind the attack on the Guild and clear Wuxian’s name after he is framed for the incident.

    When Wuxian is placed under house arrest during the investigation, Lù Yě, a reliable and calculated Executor of the Spirit Guild, takes care of Hei and becomes a mentor figure to him. During their mission, it is revealed that she lost her family and became a war orphan, which led her to resent humans. Will she begin to heal from her deep-rooted trauma?

    Watch out for these characters and more, as they bring deeper emotional stakes, and the high-octane action that fans have been awaiting. The Legend of Hei II is not just a continuation, but also a journey of getting to know each character better, and gradually loving the world they are trying to build for peace and goodness.

    “Beat Yourself Up” started as something I wanted to tell a friend.” Puth shares on writing “Beat Yourself Up” and its inspiration. “We’ve never been the heart-to-heart types, so I wrote it in a song instead. I wanted to tell him that even though he has made mistakes along the way, he shouldn’t be so hard on himself. That things will get better and he’s not alone. While writing it, I soon realized this wasn’t just for my friend but myself and so many others who can be hard on themselves. It’s a message to keep going and be kinder to yourself.”

    Co-produced by Charlie Puth and BLOODPOP, “Beat Yourself Up” continues to set the scene for what is his most personal and explorative era yet. Accompanied with an official music video directed by Hunter Moreno, the release follows news of his biggest world tour to date, seeing Puth fill arenas across the globe this year.Starting on April 22 at the Viejas Arena in San Diego, Puth and his A+ band will perform hits old and new across 34 dates in North America before venturing to Europe and the United Kingdom this summer.

    Mitski announces her eighth studio album, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me— out February 27th via Dead Oceans — and releases its lead single/video, “Where’s My Phone?” Supported by a live band and orchestra, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me finds Mitski immersing herself in a rich narrative whose main character is a reclusive woman in an unkempt house. Outside of her home, she is a deviant; inside of her home, she is free.

    Today’s fuzzed-out rock song, “Where’s My Phone?,” hints at the range of sounds and energy across the album: “Where did it go // Where’s my phone // Where’s my phone // Where did I leave // Where’d I go // Where’d I go,” she sings. New Yorker cartoonist Emily Flake depicts her interpretation in the below cartoon.

    “Where’s My Phone?” arrives alongside an unhinged, emotionally kaleidoscopic video directed by Noel Paul. Based on Shirley Jackson’s novel, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, and using a playful, primitive style of filmmaking, it presents Mitski playing a paranoid woman who is trying to protect her sister inside a gothic house while battling increasingly absurd, human obstacles. Creating a complex psychological palette, the intruders – whether menacing or friendly – cascade one upon the other building into total pandemonium.

    Mitski wrote all of the songs and performed all of the vocals on Nothing’s About to Happen to Me. Produced and engineered by Patrick Hyland and mastered by Bob Weston, the album continues the musical through line established with 2023’s The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, and features live instrumentation by The Land touring band and ensemble arrangements. The orchestra was recorded at Sunset Sound and TTG Studios, arranged and conducted by Drew Erickson, engineered by Michael Harris.

    Mitski is “the most alluring and enigmatic musician in indie rock” (Rolling Stone) who “keeps shifting in all these really brilliant and wonderful ways” (NPR Music). Throughout her career, she’s released seven albums, four of which are certified gold. Her song, “My Love Mine All Mine,” was a global sensation, and is four-times platinum. Mitski’s varied collaborations with other artists include two co-writes on the most recent Florence and the Machine album, Everybody Scream, and with David Byrne and Son Lux for the Oscar nominated “This Is A Life.” She is currently writing the music and lyrics for the musical adaptation of The Queen’s Gambit.

    “A mesmerizing study in movement” (Variety), Mitski’s live show has also been described as “highly stylized, brilliantly realized, super cool” (Philadelphia Inquirer) and “unusual, enigmatic and utterly compelling” (The Guardian). Her first concert film, Mitski: The Land, was played in over 600 cinemas across 30 countries in October 2025, cementing her as “the rare indie star who has earned the big-screen treatment” (Uproxx). It was released in conjunction with The Land: The Live Album.

  • RAYMOND LAUCHENGCO HEADLINES THE 2026 CONCERT SERIES OF CITY OF DREAMS MANILA’S CENTERPLAY THIS JANUARY!

    RAYMOND LAUCHENGCO HEADLINES THE 2026 CONCERT SERIES OF CITY OF DREAMS MANILA’S CENTERPLAY THIS JANUARY!

    CenterPlay at City of Dreams Manila brings romance in the air with the charm of the nostalgic 80’s as it turns the spotlight for the second time to popular matinee idol and balladeer Raymond Lauchengco on January 21 at 9:30 pm.

    The OPM (Original Pilipino Music) icon is the opening salvo to CenterPlay’s Concert Series this year, a monthly entertainment show focused on celebrating Pilipino music. His highly anticipated return follows a successful CenterPlay concert in 2024.

    Music fans will certainly relive the 80’s and swoon over Lauchengco’s hit songs “So It’s You” and “Farewell” from the original soundtrack of the 80’s coming-of-age film “Bagets” which he also starred in and propelled him among the heartthrobs of that decade. The other favorites among his repertoire are “I Need You Back”, “Saan Darating ang Umaga”, “Shadow of Time”, and “Nothing’s Gonna Change my Love for You”.

    Following the successful film release in 1984 of Bagets, he was the Philippine representative to the prestigious Tokyo Music Festival in 1987. He has performed in over 30 countries as a concert and recording artist through the decades, along with directing numerous international live events. A recipient of the 2007 Aliw Award for Best Concert Collaboration for the concert series, The Best of Us, with Ayen Laurel, Lauchengco has also acted in various theatrical productions, television shows and films. A multi-faceted artist, he recently ventured into writing, painting, and sculpture.

    Raymond Lauchengco Live at CenterPlay will be followed by “Soul Siren” Nina on February 16 and Gabby Concepcion on March 18. The first quarter roster of artists comes on the heels of sought after concerts of Ariel Rivera and Jaya in December, and other OPM stars featured at CenterPlay over the past year, including Janno Gibbs, Neocolours, Moira, Juan Karlos, Rey Valera, Noel Cabangon, Ice Seguerra, “Soul Siren” Nina, Jinky Vidal, Jed Madela, Yeng Constantino, Daryl Ong, Imago, and The CompanY. Lauchengco’s anticipated concert also highlights performances from bands Moranos, Highschool Playlist, and Le Chic who are set to perform alternately from 6 pm to 3 am.

    Guests can reserve a seat or a table with consumables starting at P3,500, comprising of bar nosh, burgers, fries, and beverages. VIP couch seats for a party of eight, and smaller seatings are also available. Designed for the ultimate entertainment experience, CenterPlay is a cool snack and cocktail lounge offering light meals, signature cocktail concoctions, beers, wines, and other beverages, and is built around the circular stage at the center of the main gaming floor.
