Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino celebrates 10 years with a series of shows across Metro Manila

Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino (LMP) marks its highly anticipated celebration this year with a series of music events that aim to foster deeper awareness and appreciation for Pinoy music.

The week-long festivity, which takes place in various music venues and stages across Metro Manila from July 5 to 31, continues its commitment to promoting established and new homegrown music acts whose work has provided inspiration to the Filipino people or contributed to the advancement of the local economy and the arts.

“What makes LMP 2024 different from the previous celebrations is that it has a more ‘back-to-basics’ vibe and ‘keeping-it-simple’ feel,” Organisasyon ng Pilipinong Mang-aawit (OPM) Board member and Vice President for Special Projects Christian Bautista explains. “The focus and emphasis are really on listening to and appreciating different artists sharing their music and their stories in intimate settings. Our LMP this year is not really focused on the spectacle but rather more on highlighting the artist and the song.”

This year’s LMP chronicles a decade of celebrating Linggo ng Musikang Pilipino in accordance with Proclamation No. 933, signed by late President Benigno Aquino III on December 19, 2014.

Returning on its tenth year with the goal of reintroducing its mandate to highlight Filipino singer and to showcase the richness and diversity of Filipino music, Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino aims to be more proactive in supporting Pinoy artists and ensuring that they are given a platform to present their work and their story to a global modern audience.

Johnoy Danao performing on LMP

The commemoration of LMP is slated to take place in several areas with multiple dates and will feature more than 30 artists from OPM’s roster and network of artists.

OPM Spotlight: LMP Night, which has championed some of the biggest and brightest local artists in recent years, will host performances and shows for the rest of the month at Kubo Bar in Kalayaan, Quezon City. Some of the headliners include Johnoy Danao, Sugarcane, jikamarie, Color It Red,, Mint Magic and many more from the OPM slate.



Other remote celebrations include OPM Spotlight: Rockwell LMP Series on July 24, 25, 26, and 28 at the Power Plant Mall in Makati City, and LMP24: PhilPop Night on July 31, 2024 at Kubo Bar. The latter puts a spotlight on select winners and participants from the prestigious annual songwriting competition, including Noah Alejandre, PhilPop 2020 Grand Champion; Davey Langit, PhilPop 2015 Top 3 Finalist and PhilPop 2013 Finalist; Kulas Basilonia, PhilPop 2020 Finalist; Hazel Faith, PhilPop North Luzon Boot Camp 2019 Fellow; and dwta, PhilPop 2021 DigiCamp Fellow. Ayala Land and Make It Makati will also be having a series of acoustic shows in partnership with OPM along with other activities related to the Linggo ng Musikang Pilipino celebration from July 21 to 28.

“Expect beautiful music and heartfelt performances from the artists,” Organisasyon ng Pilipinong Mang-aawit (OPM) President Ogie Alcasid shares. “We hope that through this humble series of shows that we’re doing, the Filipino audience will continue to love and support Filipino artists and Filipino music even after LMP.”

OPM Officer in Charge Gab Cabangon emphasizes that the goal of this year’s LMP has never changed. “It’s always been about the celebration and promotion of Filipino artists and Filipino music. That has always been our advocacy, to which we are fully committed as an organization. I guess what we could add to that is that this LMP celebration is also OPM’s way to reintroduce itself to the general public and grow its community.”

The Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino was established under Proclamation No. 933, signed in 2014, with the initiative to celebrate Filipino music during the last week of July every year.

Here’s the schedule this year:

The Linggo ng Musikang Pilipino a.k.a. LMP24 is presented to you by the Organisasyon ng mga Pilipinong Mang-aawit in partnership with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, Rockwell Land, PhilPop Musicfest Foundation, Inc., Ayala Land, Make It Makati, Ayala Malls, and Ayala Museum.

Special thanks as well to partner venues Kubo Bar Kalayaan and Beach House Bar & Grill Marikina

How is OPPO Shaping the Future of 5G-Advanced and Ambient IoT Technology

5G-Advanced (5G-A) represents the next evolution of 5G, ushering in a new era of wireless communications enhanced by AI integration and lays the groundwork for future 6G networks.

For those curious about the new experiences or seeking a glimpse into the futuristic world of 6G, OPPO's recent contributions to 5G-A standard development offer valuable insights.

OPPO is at the forefront of the transition to 5G-A, driving innovation in key areas that promises faster speeds, better reliability, and smarter networks that will transform how we connect and communicate. As an active contributor in 3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project), the global communication protocol organization defining standards such as 5G and 6G, OPPO has contributed to the following areas:
OPPO Zero-Power Tag Prototype won TIME Best Inventions 2023

Ambient IoT:

Ambient IoT devices can operate without batteries while maintaining minimal hardware complexity by utilizing key technologies such as environmental energy harvesting, ultra-low power communication and ultra-low power computing. It opens a wide range of possibilities for consumer as well as industry applications. OPPO led innovation in Ambient IoT and showcased a prototype “Zero-Power Tag” in MWC2023 and was awarded as one of best inventions of 2023 by Time magazine. With OPPO’s R&D accumulation and exchange with the industry during the past few years, OPPO is releasing an updated white paper outlining the latest challenges and developments in ambient IoT.

Integrating AI with Communication Systems:
By integrating artificial intelligence with communication systems, OPPO is paving the way for intelligent networks that can adapt and optimize in real-time. This fusion of AI and communications not only enhances current 5G capabilities but also lays the foundation for future 6G networks, promising a new era of smart, efficient, and personalized connectivity.

Advancing Sidelink Evolution 
for Device-to-Device Communication:
OPPO has made strides in sidelink technology, enabling direct communication between devices without relying on network infrastructure. This advancement is crucial for scenarios with limited network coverage and has far-reaching implications for public safety, disaster recovery, and the automotive industry, potentially revolutionizing how we approach connectivity in challenging environments.

Pioneering 3Tx Uplink:
OPPO has introduced 3Tx (triple transmit antennas) uplink transmission technology, which uses three antennas for uplink transmission, dramatically improving upload speeds and reliability, enhancing the mobile experience for data-intensive applications like live streaming and video conferencing, addressing a critical need in today's increasingly connected world.

OPPO's commitment to 5G-A research is evident in its substantial contributions to 3GPP, with over 12,000 technical documents submitted. As of March 31, 2024, OPPO has deployed 5G/5G-A communication standard patents in over 40 countries and regions, with more than 3,300 5G standard patent families declared to ETSI.

5G-Advanced serves as a crucial stepping stone towards 6G, introducing enhanced capabilities and laying the groundwork for 6G in fields such as AI integration, energy efficiency, and sidelink communications. OPPO's vision for 6G, as outlined in its white papers, emphasizes the integration of AI and communications, the creation of a 'Minimized Kernel' system design, and the development of robust security measures. By investing in 6G research and actively participating in its standardization process, OPPO is playing a crucial role in shaping the future of wireless technology, aiming to deliver more intelligent, convenient, and secure communication experiences for users worldwide.
