‍

Are you looking for fresh OPM tracks to add to your playlist? Look no further, KDR Music House releases new tracks by up-and-coming artists Ellie Poliver, Yah Bles, and Esay Belanio.

If you’ve been in a one-sided love situation, longing to unwind on a vacation, or have had false hopes and broken love vows with someone, you’ll definitely be in tune with them!

“Dreams & Memories,” Ellie Poliver

‍

‍

Have you ever longed for someone and hoped that you could make memories with them together? For life? “Dreams & Memories” could be your next LSS. It speaks of an unconditional love for a person you haven’t met yet — one whom you’ve only dreamt of meeting and having.

The track was penned by busker and songwriter from Biñan, Laguna, Ellie Poliver. He is notable for his touching melancholic songs, which interestingly contrast with the energetic and joyful personality he exudes when not singing.

In an interview, he shared what inspired him to make this song: “‘Dreams & Memories’ was only my thoughts of having the love na inaasam ko. That time na isinusulat ko ‘to, I was wondering how genuine ‘yung pagmamahal ng isang tao and totoo bang nag e-exist to. In my point of view, sobrang nakatuon lang talaga ako doon sa idea ko, if gaano ko pahahalagahan ‘yung taong ‘yun, if dumating ‘yung panahon.”

“Bakasyon Grande,” Yah Bles

‍

‍

Taking you on a gleeful reggae escapade, ”Bakasyon Grande,” is a song that reminds listeners to let go of life’s burdens and enjoy a carefree getaway. When things get bad and on the verge of turning worse, sometimes, it’s better to just pause and take a breather — and, well, have a grand vacation.

Formed in 2019, Yah Bles, the trio behind the song, began performing in resto bars and food parks in Metro Manila and other nearby cities. They are well-known for their reggae versions of hit songs, both classic and contemporary.

Sharing the inspiration for the track, vocalist Kirque “Ganji”Ayes said, “Nung nagtatrabaho kasi ako, hindi ko talaga feel yung ginagawa ko at na-pu-frustrate ako sa work at hindi ko nagagawa yung passion ko as musician. Kaya during that time, naisip ko gumawa ng kanta about bakasyon para kahit man lang sa kanta, matakasan ko yung mundane at depressing na situation ko.”

“But Now You’re Gone,” Esay Belanio

‍

Change is inevitable. No matter how unpleasant it may sound, the truth is that people come and go and circumstances don’t always remain the same, especially when love isn’t strong enough to keep things together. In “But Now You’re Gone,” romantic promises are destined to fade into nothing — made but never to be realized.

This piece is the debut offering of Esay Kristin Belanio. She is an Iloilo-based singer-songwriter, musician, and founder of the “Goodvibes Busker” group. Her Ilongga roots weave a unique cultural tapestry into her captivating songs.

“The greatest joy of making music is the ability to express oneself, evoke emotions, and connect with others that could bring unity, hope and even inspire others,” she expressed, defining the pleasure of making music.

All three artists were previously featured on Uncharted, Wish 107.5’s newest endeavor that embodies the station’s long-standing mission to be a gateway for Filipino artists to reach wider audiences. OPM music-makers can submit demos of unpublished, original songs here.
