BLUESKRIEG - Original Pinoy Blues Music

Tuesday, November 7th, 2006

The second record release of Rebolusyon Rekords is entitled BLUESKRIEG. It is now in the final mixing stage.

The CD cover design and packaging is also being finalized. The target in store release date is first week of December.
BLUESKRIEG is a compilation CD featuring five (5) Philippine bands playing blues-influenced/blues-based music, Original Pilipino Blues Music. The featured bands are (in alphabetical order) :

  • DAHON
  • FIREBOTTLE
  • KULUKATI
  • PLUG and
  • SNAKECHARMER

BLUESKRIEG contains fifteen (15) original songs that arguably cover the wide gamut of blues music varieties, from standard 12-bar blues, to soul/rnb tinged blues, to classic rock, southern rock, country rock style blues to modern heavy blues based rock…

There was an advanced listening party cum blues night gig at Conspiracy Bar last Nov. 4 - overall the reaction to the songs and mixes were quite positive - just a few enhancements, very few rough edges. Click here for commentary on the  performances that bluesy Saturday night in Quezon City.
The BLUESKRIEG term was coined by Gerry Diwa in 1995 for a blues night feature concert in Club Dredd, the hotspot for original music back in those days.

Watch out for the BLUESKRIEG CD and related activities. The launch party is on November 25, 2006 at 6Underground in Makati. All five (5) BLUESKRIEG bands will be there with special guests THE BLUE RATS. Watch out.
