  • Angeline Quinto Goes Live on TikTok to Welcome “Being With You”

    Angeline Quinto Goes Live on TikTok to Welcome “Being With You”



    Angeline Quinto, who is now under Universal Records, just released a brand new song entitled “Being With You.” It is the quintessential Angeline Quinto song: beautifully sung, full of emotions, and boasts of impressively high notes. 

    Fun fact: before it became the beautiful track we now know as “Being With You,” the song was originally penned in Korean. The song was composed, produced, mixed, and mastered in Korea, as well.

    The track is a romantic ballad made up of beautiful orchestral elements, from the hypnotically soft keys, to the emotional strings, supported by story-telling through percussive instruments, constantly building up to a powerful climax.

    The Power Diva went live on TikTok minutes before the drop of her newest song, and excitedly waited for the release together with her fans and supporters. After listening to it together with those who joined her livestream, Angeline couldn’t help but feel grateful for all the words of support from the comments section. Some used compliments like “ganda” and “sarap pakinggan,” while others said that they would definitely get LSS or last song syndrome after hearing the song, which fans and curious listeners alike can now stream on all major music streaming platforms.

    A heartwarming moment was when her son Sylvio joined the livestream. But what’s cuter than her son joining the live? Angeline having a hard time ending the livestream! She didn’t know how to, so she had to ask help from her fans, who then sent instructions in the comment section just so she could end the livestream.

    One good thing about “Being With You” is that while it doesn’t stray away from the typical Angeline Quinto sound, it still sounds very current and relevant, something that anyone and everyone can appreciate and enjoy now. 

    What’s next? The “Being With You” music video, which promises to be just as emotion-filled as the song. While waiting for its release, the “Being With You” official lyric video is something that fans can already watch on the Universal Records YouTube account. The song is also now available on all major streaming platforms:  Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer.

    Universal Records Celebrates Their 37th Awit Awards Winners!

    Universal Records was a big winner at the 37th Awit Awards, bringing home four important awards. A prestigious event that recognizes the best in the local music industry, this year’s Awit Awards – held at the Music Museum in Greenhills last December 4 – gathered the country’s most exciting music acts and respected music executives, including those from Universal Records.

    The Dangal ng Musikang Pilipino award was proudly presented to the legendary band Parokya ni Edgar, honoring their steadfast dedication to celebrating and preserving the heart and soul of Philippine music. Members, Gab Cheekee, Dindin Moreno, Vinci Valenton, Buwi Meneses and Darius Semaña were present to receive the award.

    Shanti Dope, another Universal Records artist, took home the Best Rap/Hip Hop Recording award for his groundbreaking track “Bad Type,” highlighting the increasing recognition of diverse genres in the Philippine music scene. Since Shanti Dope could not make it to the event, Universal Records Managing Director Kathleen Dy-Go accepted the award on his behalf, saying, “I would like to thank all of the fans and supporters who shared this whole journey with him. Thank you so much Awit and PARI. Thank you so much!”

    The night also shone a light on incredible collaborations, with Gloc-9 and Gary Valenciano winning the Best Collaboration award for their song “Walang Pumapalakpak.”

    A truly memorable moment of the evening was the Lifetime Achievement Award given to Universal Records Executive Vice-President Ramon Chuaying. A board member and director of the Philippine Association of Record Industry, his decades-long career has made a significant impact on the music industry, and his unwavering commitment to nurturing talent and promoting Filipino music has inspired countless artists along the way. With all this recognition, Universal Records is truly ending the year on a high note.
