Warner Music Philippines' Year-End Blogcon 2015



Wazzup Pilipinas!

I recently attended the year end blogcon of Warner Music Philippines held at Lola Café + Bar, Sct. Lozano, Quezon City on December 11, 2015.

This is the first time I will be attending an event organized by Warner Music Philippines so I feel honored that they reached out to me for an opportunity to collaborate with them in sharing the news about their artists, both foreign and domestic.

Warner Music Philippines is an affiliate of Warner Music Group, a leading music company in local and international repertoire that operates through numerous international affiliates and licensees in more than 50 countries. The label is also home to a collection of the best-known record labels in the music industry. WarnerMusic Group also includes Warner/Chappell Music, one of the world's leading music publishers.

The night started off with a fabulous dinner featuring Lola Café + Bar's specialties including their pasta. Donna Aquino, Warner Music Philippines’ Digital Media Promo Executive, welcomed the attendees and led the program announcing many news about several artists including Coldplay’s latest album, “A Head Full of Dreams”, Charlie Puth's debut album Nine Track Mind, the return of Janet Jackson and Missy Elliott, and many more international releases.

Below are some photos and videos from the event:







There were special performances from Spotify’s Spotlight Artist of 2016, Lunar Lights and Mark Carpio, who both presented two songs each. The two sets of performers were composed of very young individuals that are only in their 20s. It is amazing that these young men are able to sound so professional even at their early ages.

I was able to take videos of their performances and also requested for video invites from them. You can check them below or at our YouTube and Dailymotion channels: http://www.YouTube.com/wazzuppilipinas and http://www.dailymotion.com/wazzuppilipinas







With the popularity and convenience of online distribution for music, Warner Music Philippines no longer distributes or produces albums. However, if there are artists we are interested in pushing that goes well with our market, we can request Warner Music Philippines to order special artist merchandise for possible giveaways to our readers.

Now, that's great news aside from the music-related news and content such as WMP samplers, latest artist press releases, albums and other tools for our blog features and music reviews.


They currently have 2 playlists that are worth promoting:
