hang the dj the spinners hang the dj about us the spinners album reviews track reviews back issues archives rss feed the oh in opm hang the dj vol 3 in intro on december 15 2010 at 5 57 am opm was a sham in many ways coined back in the 70s to signify a breaking free from the tethers of western pop it didn t exactly help to evolve all our musical ethnicities into a pop consciousness like it did say in cuba or jamaica but marginalized them even further while remaining to this day in a sort of thrall to the methods and structures of western pop be it the hysterical diva caterwauls of regine velasquez and sarah geronimo or the faux british accents of orange and lemons and the pin up girls but all pop s a sham anyway and more than that it s our sham pop s also a cannibal and it s not so much in form as it is in content from the colloquial banter to the social realism that makes opm ostensibly pilipino music it veers from the derivative xlr8 mocha and the unimaginative martin nievera jed madela to the flatulent christian bautista rocksteddy and to the downright heinous 6cyclemind lito camo but in the mesh and grind of all those years of constant transposing of local color and borrowed genre it blossomed and mutated into its own unique make and model a species of pop similar yet distinct from others sometimes wondrous often beautiful and in many ways terribly exciting welcome to the third issue then where us so called spinners old and new gather anew picking apart sugar hiccup s five years at some point but for the most part acting like savage detectives or hunter gatherers foraging and sifting through the domestic pop of our lives for the songs that make us dance and swoon and cry and gasp the songs that emit that rare joy and wonder the songs that put the oh in opm the master spinner ex o this issue is dedicated to the happier years 2004 2010 the master spinner let s welcome our new spinners ayer arguelles christian cruz eula gonzales gian mayuga and tyler draper lime figures 15 album reviews 25 track reviews 5 new contributors comment the spinners spotlight five years sugar hiccup 1995 in alternative rock opm the spinners spotlight on december 15 2010 at 5 49 am download five years to think that this was released as a single in 1995 eventually winning the best alternative song in the katha and awit awards the following year means the strings back then were a lot more loose and a lot less wimpish cause really when was the last time you heard a three minute song on the radio full of humming our spinners were there to witness the unlikely shakeup let s read their journals hypnotic and chilling five years never fails to scare me the most imaginative song i ve ever heard andrea nicola 4 the only problem sugar hiccup have with this song is that it s so good any other song they wrote and will write after this will not be as memorable antoinette jadaone 4 to say that to this day there is no song as powerful as sugar hiccup s five years or that there is no one whose vocal prowess could come close to that of melody del mundo s is perhaps not an exaggeration ayer arguelles 5 a haunting hum of a melody that builds into a primal scream of raw emotion sometimes a song is not just a song it s a revelation ayn marie dimaya 5 i don t know what to make out of this three minute record that consists of a never ending girl moan and a sudden hair raising shriek i will probably listen to this song and pretend to enjoy it only if there is a gun pointed at my head otherwise it is a deadly task christian cruz 2 words fail all the bad poetry day goth damaged bands that elude me and sometimes piss me off but sugar hiccup win me over out of how they re totally and utterly sonic and how melody de mundo s caterwauling shrieks are somehow both meaningless artifice and poetic gesture without being totally either dodo dayao 4 it gives an impression of a seemingly delusional romance that is hauntingly and unfortunately short lived eula gonzales 3 5 five years encompasses feelings for the listener that can be shouted and signified in singular words banshee longing destroy wail despair climax death epic gian mayuga 5 the longest atmospheric song with only six words as lyrics how epic can a humming voice be julius maraya 4 a haunting song befitting of massive introspection especially during the first two minutes i think the likes of bjork and annie lennox would appreciate this juno barbra streisand 4 kids who probably first heard this song when it hit the airwaves in the mid 90s are probably aware that the vocalist here is going for a solid minute and a half just humming until the song slowly reaches its crescendo somewhere around the two minute mark when she says perhaps the only intelligible words here but he will never be back insert commencement of intense wailing here loss and anger weaved into the fluctuating notes until the end it definitely tops my don t listen to this when alone playlist kate pedroso 5 it reminds me of a cry of desperation and death perfect kz otarra 5 after all these years it still amazes me how a song with a single line can encapsulate how dragging five years could be and how the wait disappoints at the end he will never be there this is how futility sounds like beautiful but awfully futile megan diño 4 gut wrenching sculpture of strawberry sadness oliver ortega 5 melody del mundo is like a shaman wailing to the gods of rhythm concord and syncopation her siren call traps listeners in a fugue state unable to shake the ethereal harmonies that bubble up making five years not so much a funerary dirge but a mellifluous hymn to the beauty and power of the human voice rex baylon 5 crosses that line between dream and nightmare and gives you both richard bolisay 4 no lyrics needed i can stand five more years listening to this song haunting rm topacio aplaon 5 five years echoes a haunted dream like a low buzz that starts rolling it escalates to an otherworldly screech an explosion that is the only thing you remember when you wake up it s a fine example why the 90s band explosion is one of the greatest eras in pinoy music five years reminds me of a long gone era that continues to live on in nostalgia romina mislang 4 a humming that escalates to screaming against starry guitars five years is the emotional breakdown we hide from our lovers it s as if melody del mundo s voice is slowly being pulled and stretched like a rubber band to the point of shooting or breaking across time across the wait wong kar wai s films often ponder over how time and distance pull lovers apart this is how they sound like thor balanon 4 five years is basically a two minute crescendo followed by vocal chords being played like a violin which isn t entirely a bad thing the song is hypnotic and proves that its musicians are capable and creative sadly despite the obvious talent showcased in the song five years fails to really captivate me for me sugar hiccup at least in this song are like a skilled fisherman who in a moment of absentmindedness forgot to put a hook on the line tyler draper 3 average rating comment the master spinner raps miss pakipot urban flow 1996 in hiphop opm the master spinner spins track reviews on december 15 2010 at 5 47 am download miss pakipot a handful of opm songs naonseng delight never meant to be this way boy lumayo ka man sa akin kapag tumibok ang puso bakit nga ba mahal kita tameme to name a few were a little ahead of their time when they first came out but somehow their status as classics was never confirmed not that such showbiz shtick is the most important reform to do in local music but the lack of any institution to proclaim such things reputable or not is just a bit disheartening we have to rely on memory or on friends memories or quite recently on sentisabado tweets for we have no lester bangs no robert christgau no existing books and magazines to tell us what happened back then the very few writers we have are not enough and those very few tend to lose that childish feeling that delight of innocence to put into words such experiences miss pakipot belongs to that sorry handful my memory of it is that every time i heard it on the radio and this was in the mid 90s when every second of our lives depended on radio i would always swing my hand like a rapper and relish the opening verses aaah aahh ooohh ctg kita miss miss pakipot ctg kita miss miss suplada ctg kita miss miss maganda sa palagay ko mahal na nga kita aaah ooooh hip hop as always is the genre that gets both the privilege of being looking down on and reaping the most sales it is where the popular and the critical never fail to meet the masses don t get tired of it in a way hip hop is no longer a genre because it encompasses everything our cassette player and mini component both rested in peace were a testament to that so as my childhood spoiled by gangsta loving courtesy of my brother who once had this sort of group whose idea of enjoyment was throwing pillbox and vandalism there are just a limited number of hooks that you can fit into a song to make it work but with miss pakipot you ll be surprised that the entire song itself is actually this one big hook the melody goes on and on the transition an invisible thread that holds the stanzas together until it reaches the refrain and seals everything after the intro the song continues with three more verses before it hits the refrain all with a similar beat four lines every stanza the rhyming scheme ab ab very much observed miss miss is repeated for emphasis and tease effortless to say the least but there s also that fun in rapping along how tasty the words are and how smooth they feel in the tongue it s far from forced even the taglish does not get in the way take that verse okey lang sa akin kung iyong sasabihin na ako ay mayabang o mahangin but i know may chance pa ako na makamit ko ang matamis mong oo ooooh notice how clever that hook oooh is placed conveniently after oo and how the figure of speech matamis mong oo is such a lovely phrase to hear albeit rarely used now it only gets better after the first refrain here is the story of a man professing his love to a hard to get woman and he s talking to her directly like a confession a toss between tongue in cheek and deadly serious and there s a hint of desperation in his voice disguised in weak kneed poetry he tells what s the use of beauty kung ikaw ay ganyan pati ang puso ko ay nahihirapan halos araw araw kitang inaabangan sinusulyapan at napanaginipan it sounds creepy stalker much but it gets away with it because of the lines that follow hindi ka na maaalis sa aking isipan para kang si eba at ako si adan and there the singer starts to compare himself and his muse with the first man and woman with these two biblical characters with the origin of sin how s that for ego in a streak of genius when you thought it couldn t get any better the singer drops the words that every one relates to the similes that reek of cheese the sentiment that makes the ending very much deserved ang pag ibig ko sa yo sing bango ng polo sing tamis ng milo sing sarap ng nido i want you to know ang pag ibig ko sa yo ang pag ibig ko sa yo sagad hanggang buto ooooh he gets the woman in the end of course and i think part of the popularity of the song owes to that how it builds to that how it doesn t feel contrived at all although conservatists would cringe at the idea of one year courtship and one year fades sa paghihintay i got her oo at malupit n yang kamay it only makes it sweeter every listen a fairytale gangsta romance ending in happily ever after sweet and smooth sailing now isn t that familiar part of the charm of miss pakipot is how friendly it is from the affectionate lyrics to the laid back rhythm how it drives home the point just by being honest and how the three guys from urban flow stick to the basics of plain and simple rap armed with the right kind of chill it s rare to come across a rap that you can easily commit to memory it shatters the excuse that rap needs to be difficult to be unique something which with all due respect to gloc 9 i disagree with i admire gloc 9 s music especially how his songs are politically and socially motivated but my reservations stem from the fact that i can t sing them that i can t participate that i can t annoy my sister with endless ctg kita s pinoy hiphop like american hiphop peaked in the 90s francis m was still around mastaplann death threat pamilia dimagiba andrew e kulay 100 000 pesos worth of karma wholesome the way
