Cool South Concepts



I' ve been staying in LasPiƱas every weekend with my cousins, and I can't help being envy how these "guys from the south" came up with concepts like this one out of pure wit and experience.

Dumet -"made somewhere in the Philippines," was recently launched just as the whole Philippine archipelago was commemorating the Edsa 1 Revolution. This is not a coincidence, but also a marketing strategy of the group with their designs like "Nasaan ka ng '86" and "Bayani". And as predicted, it was an immediate hit. With prices that range between 300php-350php, these cool shirts designed by adRepublika could be yours.

If you happen to be somewhere in the south, you may also want to check Placid's gig schedule. Another promising band from the South. Nope, the band is not new as they've been playing for about 5 years now. In fact they even made it in the final round of MotoRock sponsored by Motorola last year.
With their version of Carpenter's "Top of the World" spiced with some bongo's and reggae beat of the base guitar and drums, I can say that they did gave justice to the song with their revival.

Natalie, a Filipina with Irish decent, as their vocalist, this reggae cum pop rock band may soon hit it big so check them out now.
