WARNER MUSIC Launches GLOPM, A Movement to Promote Pinoy Music Int'l

WARNER Music Philippines (WMP) officially launches GLOPM, AKA Global Pinoy Music, a collaborative group dedicated in pushing and promoting Pinoy music abroad. It's main goal is to make Filipino Music be known and also help our very talented Pinoy musicians showcase their talents in all different music platforms.

 The main goal of WMP in #GLOPM is pairing domestic talent with Filipino producers and/or Fil-Global artists through GLOPM. That's why in its pilot launch, we have the following artist jumpstart this global movement: Leanne & Naar, Reon, Quest & Catriona. 

As part of of its pilot release, Leanne & Naar worked with acclaimed world producer August Rigo, who is known for his work with Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Sean Kingston, and BTS among many others, for the single titled “Anticipation.”

“We’re always open to working with different producers but I guess the excitement reeled in when we found out that August also has Filipino blood. He’s got some really big names that he’s worked with under his belt but the funny thing is it never felt like it at all. He’s a straight up cool guy, and very easy to talk to. Off the bat we understood that he does it for the love, and that passion together with our openness made the process easy,” says Leanne.

“It is such a privilege to work with such a talented and hands-on producer like August. Brian Lotho, our debut album producer, has also worked with him before. We are very familiar with his excellent work with Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, BTS, and many other amazing artists,” Naara adds.

As explained better by WMP Manager Kelley Mangahas, “GLOPM aspires to make Filipino artists be felt, seen, and heard on the world stage,” says Mangahas. “WMP will be utilising its resources as a record label and leveraging global expertise and knowledge in music production into Philippines.”

Reon on the other hand, recorded “Back To The Times” with Grammy-nominated record producer Xerxes Bakker who worked with Maroon 5, Snoop Dogg, Imagine Dragons, Cee-Lo Green, Ella Eyre, Tungevaag, and Quintino.

Xerxes is equally raving about reon, “They gave me a pure and contemporary indie-pop vibe. They have such great voices combined with inspiring lyrics and melodies. Mega talents. We went effortlessly through the song. The aesthetic state of ‘Back To The Times’ gave me so much inspiration. I just needed to enhance the beautiful essence of the demo.”

Warner Music Philippines also welcomes Catriona Gray as the newest addition to the GLOPM roster who wrote a song titled “Love Language” which is recorded in collaboration with prominent Australian producer Cabu.

“This is a new chapter in my life as an artist and I am honored to be a part of Warner Music Philippines’

GLOPM initiative as this movement features aspirational talent of Filipinos in the field of music. ‘Love Language’ is my first foray of songwriting and it felt like such a perfect collaboration to work with Cabu for this single,” says Catriona.

Moira Dela Torre for Maria Clara Sagria Virgin

T he media launch today we attended is extra special for me. It's quite special in a sense it brings back childhood memories of a favourite drink in my family,  Maria Clara Sangria.  Growing up, I was not allowed to try and drink it because of the alcohol content of the drink.
