Muzic’s Kool’s Kanta Kwento: Heartfelt and Soulful

Written by louiseinthehouse on March 15, 2015

Love, joy, inspiration, longing, assumption, unforgiveness, brokenness, frustration, annoyance, desperation, faith, assurance, hope, and renewal. These are some of the varied experiences that inspired the artist to create songs to capture the drama of human emotions. “Kanta-Kwento” is an album that verbalized the different sentiments, random thoughts, and feelings that could not be simply said in our casual face-to-face conversations with the people involved in our lives. “Kanta-Kwento” mirrors the humans being fully engaged with life. It is an artist’s subtle self-assurance that life goes on and one has to keep moving on, learning from the experiences and picking up the pieces to begin a new story. This emotion-packed musical collaboration is a reflection of the unique creativity of some of Davao’s emerging homegrown musicians. All songs were composed by Jeremy Sarmiento, with music skillfully arranged by Jonathan Ferrero, Jr. and Paolo Sisi. These are nicely interpreted by both budding and known singers and musicians […]

Zumba has become one very popular form of dancercise (coined term for dance and exercise) in the recent years. If you have a love and hate relationship with doing exercise regularly, zumba might just change this. Zumba is a fusion of aerobics and dance routines. Although it is commonly identified with latin dance steps such as samba, salsa, mambo and merengue, Zumba also has hiphop and martial arts movements in it making it really interesting. It is far from being boring and it makes you sweat, you wouldn’t even notice that an hour has passed. (one hour zumba group sessions is offered in most local gyms). I’ve been doing Zumba at least twice a week in the last two years and I can truly say, it gives me a different high.
