Not even the possibility of a heat stroke stopped Wanderers from crusading to pitch their mats, colorful cloths, and set up camp at the grassy landscape at Globe Circuit Grounds for the third installment of Wanderland. Wanderers—rather, Wanderscouts, for this year’s camp-themed festival—were immersed in an adventure that brought them back to nature. They gathered around the musical bonfire to revel in the mystical land that is Wandercamp.

Karpos Multimedia gave concertgoers and music aficionados the first concert of 2015. Hundreds of people welcomed the New Year with a band they love. Though many of them had gone back to reality, there was something to look forward to that night. The fifth evening of January was another cause for celebration.
The World Trade Center was a sprawling venue with more than enough space for every one to revel in the music, but as soon as Bastille entered the crowd huddled close to the stage. Blood red lights glowed as the London-based musical quartet commenced their Manila show.
The band composed of Dan Smith, Chris Wood, William Farquarson and Kyle Simmons, was in awe at the turnout of the crowd as it was their first time in the country. “It is so good to be in the Philippines,” lead singer Dan said, and expressed gratitude through their performance.
Aside from playing numerous tunes from All This Bad Blood and a track called The Drive from their VS EP series, Bastille performed what Dan labeled as a “newish song” entitled Blame. This new song has yet to be released in their sophomore album.

You should have heard the collective squeal-scream (Screal? Definitely not ‘squeam’ though) of fans during last May’s Wanderland Music and Arts Festival when Karpos Multimedia announced Bombay Bicycle Club’s performance for July. It was the same screal–with more applause this time–that reverberated throughout the World Trade Center
when the award-winning English indie rock band gave their Filipino fans enough reason to venture to the venue through a monsoon evening. Almost needless to say, it was the fans’ energy that made frontman Jack Steadman gush out: “I haven’t been to a country where were greeted with such love.” That’s how we are here, gentlemen.
It was a confluence of conditions that made Wanderland’s sophomore effort a triumphant repeat performance. The festival, as true as it was last year, definitely gives a different vibe from Summer Slam, Bazooka Rocks, Malasimbo, and even 7107.
Say what you want about Metro Manila weather, but I could not imagine Wanderland being scheduled in any other time of year. People were at their most comfortable festive get ups: their shorts, their skirts, flower crowns, tank tops, cotton everything, flower crowns, sunglasses, I-wish-I-was-in-Coachella costumes, flower crowns. Karpos brought the party favors with the carnival staples, the carousel, that inflatable thingamajig with the velcro wall, live art sessions. And booze and food. Amenities in Circuit were topnotch. It is perhaps the best and appropriately stocked locally-produced music festival I’ve gone to. Wanderland certainly did a great job recognizing and acknowledging its audience judging by the effort it put into field logistics alone.
Wanderland’s distinct vibe is most probably due to the music the festival showcases. In the most simplistic and convenient of terms, blurted out by no other than Lourd de Veyra on stage: hipster. It is the music, the culture, the clothes, the attitude, the entire shebang the term imbibes, incurs, and inspires. Be it as it may, the lineup runs a gamut of musical styles diverse enough to avoid monotony but consistent enough tug a unifying thread binding all of them. All of them except maybe for Franco. It is always great to see them perform on stage, so I would assume the organizers threw them into the fray as a wild card to keep things interesting. And it was.

January 21, 2014 – “Lizstomania”, one of Phoenix’s signature tracks, perfectly describes the Filipino crowd that evening. The concert was a craze in riotous proportions. The thousands in the pits were brimming with exhilaration as made clear with their frenetic dancing, singing and cheering. Their energy spread like wildfire to everyone present.
Oui! Phoenix, the Grammy Award-winning, eclectically new wave/synth-pop rock band from Versailles, France finally came to the Philippines. Known for rendering unforgettable live sets worldwide, the band was on the wish list of many music aficionados in our country. So it is after 14 years and 5 critically acclaimed albums that they finally made their way to our shores. True enough, living up to everyone’s expectations, they were everything we asked and more (going hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!)
