The Yellow Room Night: Saguijo X Band Feature: Pitik



Got nothing to do on a Wednesday night? Then head on over to the next Yellow Room Night which will be on August 14, 2013 at Saguijo Bar & Cafe in Makati. 

For those of you who don't know yet ~ The Yellow Room is an independent Record Label and Studio that caters to both professional and amateur performers and musicians. 

The studio is owned by Montay Macalinao of Mayonnaise who is the 'man behind the Yellow Room' as he also produces the songs recorded in the studio. 

There have been a number of The Yellow Room Nights already, each one in a different venue/bar across the Metro. Paul and I spent one Wednesday off from work by heading over their Freedom bar leg last July 24 blog post on that here

If you we'rent able to catch them for the first few Yellow Nights make sure to mark your calendars for August 14 and head on over to Saguijo Bar & Cafe for a night of great quality Original Pinoy Music. 


There will be performances from: 

Miromatiko 
The Very First 

Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to attend the event since I have work, I already went on leave for their Freedom Bar leg and if I ask my boss to go on a leave again she might just give me a kurot sa singet. :P But Paul will be going since Wednesdays are his off days from work. 


Even if we both work as a team, Paul as the photographer and myself as the blogger; there are really times when one of us has to go on an event alone and we just have to compensate for the other. In case you didn't know Paul writes too ~ we both met in the College School Publication after all, so he does write, I just need to proof read it. :P And in fairness, Paul has also been teaching me a thing or two about how to take photos and that's how we work together. :) An acquaintance once told me we have a marriage of talents. :) 

Going back to the event...... Since I already featured Circa, Paraluman and Ferown in my previous post, this post will also be a special feature on Pitik.

Paul is also looking forward to the event since one of his favorite OPM bands, Pitik will be performing. Remember that original The Yellow Room post where I wrote that I loved the girls and Paul loved the boys, well Pitik is one those boys. :) He listens to their songs on Soundcloud. If you want to listen to Pitik make sure to check out Paul's Pitik Music playlist on Souncloud here

Our favorite Pitik songs include:

Burn Bright, click here to listen to it on Soundcloud. 

Below you can find the video of Pitik's Lies as recorded in the Yellow Room. The second video is the story of the recording and it is a pretty interesting story with a little history in it. 

Since the video was still made in 2012, there have been a lot of changes already, like Kuya Monty's hair style and a new Yellow Room. 


Pitik - Lies - the recording. 





Lies - the story


In the video above, Kuya Monty talks about helping bands out through The Yellow Room by having a proper recording of their songs. Especially for bands who can't afford the standard rate of studios. 

The video also gives you a front seat as to how the song was recorded, from the meaning of the lyrics to the musicality of the song. 

Since the videos were recorded in 2012, there have already been a number of songs and bands who have recorded in The Yellow Room, make sure to check out Pinasikat.com 's Youtube channel for their videos! 

So head on over to Saguijo on August 14 and catch Pitik and other amazing bands for The Yellow Room Night! RSVP in the events page on Facebook here
