I’ve heard that song before

Just minutes ago, I was listening to 2 simultaneous mp3s in my laptop. This songs were Asin’s Ang Bayan Kong Sinilangan & Black Eyed Peas’ (apl.de.ap) The APL Song.

In most websites, The APL Song’s samples are not referenced properly. Only one was song was actually referenced, which was Asin’s Balita. There’s actually another song that apl.de.ap used to sample, it was Ang Bayan Kong Sinilangan also by Asin.

I came to find out about the second song when I was listening to it. The guitar intro of The APL Song is similar to the guitar licks used in Ang Bayan Kong Sinilangan. Well, it wasn’t really a guitar, it was actually an old Filipino musical instrument, I think it was Kulintang that was used in the song. The guitar was used to accompany the Kulintang in the song. While the chorus of The APL Song was taken from Balita.

I was planning to put up the 3 songs altogether, Asin’s Ang Bayan Kong Sinilangan & Blita & apl.de.ap’s The APL Song. But WordPress.com won’t allow me to post anything from Imeem.com.

Just look them up at Imeem.com & you’ll see!

Check out also his official website, http://apldeap.com!

I thought I might just post this.

Been busy this past few days. I can’t really post new stuff at the moment. Also been trying to rejuvenate my brain/mind. 

 

I’m hoping to get things going again soon. Once I’m totally refreshed!
