THE BEST OF INDIE POP: FOSTER THE PEOPLE, WALK THE MOON & COLOUR CODING


Indie – short for Independent – is a generic term that applies to all artists and bands that purposely avoid the mainstream. But who could resist the upbeat, danceable melodies of Walk The Moon, Colour Coding and Foster The People, who had seemed to make their way into the ears of millions of listeners around the world?


Earlier this year, WALK THE MOON released the Anna Sun EP which consists of three tracks, “Tightrope”, “Next In Line” and the explosive first single “Anna Sun”. The music video for “Anna Sun” recently crossed 5 Million plays on VEVO and continues to burn up the radio charts.

The band’s self-titled album is produced by Ben H. Allen and features tracks from the Anna Sun EP, new songs and newly recorded versions of fan favorites off their 2010 independently released album I Want! I Want!

We really just wanted to create the most cohesive album we could. We found a collection of songs and an order that we felt took the listener through an emotional arc that we enjoyed. We'll leave it up to the listener to find overarching themes and ideas, though we certainly didn't set out to make a concept album or anything like that,” said Walk The Moon.

Next in line is COLOUR CODING, consisting of Chris Holland and Tim Commandeur, two cousins from Sydney who make pop music together.

From an early age, cousins Tim and Chris have harbored a mutual passion for music and songwriting. By the time they were aged 12 and 13, the boys had already recorded an EP in Tim's father's studio, continuing to write and produce music together throughout their teens. They have spent most of 2011 writing and demoing songs and, last September, entered Sydney's new Hurley Studios to record their self-produced debut EP, 'Proof'.

Last but definitely not the least is FOSTER THE PEOPLE, an American indie pop band formed in Los Angeles, California in 2009. In early 2010, the band posted their first song “Pumped Up Kicks” on the internet. They released an EP in January that includes the said hit and two other equally contagious songs, “Houdini” and “Helena Beat.” Torches, the debut studio album of Foster The People, received generally favorable reviews from critics and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album.

End your year right by grabbing a copy of Walk The Moon’s self-titled album, Foster The People’s “TORCHES” and Colour Coding’s “PROOF”, available in music stores nationwide, from Ivory Music & Video, the exclusive licensee of Sony Music in the Philippines. Also available online on iTunes and MyMusicStore.com.ph!

Avida Land wins two Myproperty.ph Real Estate Awards

Avida Land, an Ayala Land company and one of the country’s most trusted property developers, emerged victorious with two awards from the 2012 Myproperty.ph Real Estate Awards. These awards include: “Development of the Year” for Avida Towers Centera along Edsa in Mandaluyong; and “Best Lifestyle Community” for Avida Towers Riala in Cebu.

Awarding took place last November 15 at the Oakwood Premiere Joy-Nostalg Center in Manila. The panel of judges consisted of Ms. Marissa del Mar, National President of the National Real Estate Association; Mr. Christopher de la Cruz, President of the Green Building Council; and Mr. Noel Cariño, Executive Vice President of the Chamber of Real Estate and Builders Association, Inc.

Avida Towers Centera won over four other projects including SMDC’s Field Residences; Sta. Lucia Realty’s Splendido Taal Towers; DMCI’s Royal Palm Residences; and Camella Homes Inc.’s Tanza.  Likewise, Avida Towers Riala trumped two contenders, DMCI’s Royal Palm Residences and Hausland’s Nouveau Residences

Avida Towers Centera is a four-tower residential development that has a built-in retail center for shopping and other services. Strategically located at EDSA corner Reliance Street in Mandaluyong City, it gives the residents easy access to the all modern conveniences offered by urban living.

Contenders for the Development of the Year Award were judged based on the following criteria: Notable Innovations and Technology; Credibility of Property Developer/Strength of Brand; Outstanding Building Quality; Lifestyle Community and Amenities; and Project Aesthetics.

Avida Towers Riala, located at Cebu IT Park, offers wide green and open spaces as well as to the region’s corporate headquarters, business and IT/BPO offices and commercial and retail centers. It is a balance of city life and nature’s tranquillity.

Avida Towers Riala won the Best Lifestyle Community after it scored the highest in the following criteria: Quality of Lifestyle Promoted Through the Community and Amenities Offered; Lack of Pollution and Congestion; Accessibility of Project; Growth of Surrounding Community and Location; and Project Aesthetics.

“We are honoured to be the recipient of these awards. We see this recognition as an affirmation of the high quality of Avida projects. These awards also inspire us to continue giving only the best to our buyers and homeowners,” said Tess Tatco, Avida Marketing Head.

Myproperty.ph, an online avenue for real estate classifieds, held its very first Real Estate Awards this year. Summit Media and the European Classifieds Company, the two firms behind the website, organized the awards to celebrate the fast-paced future of the real estate.

With the Philippine real estate market in rapid and robust growth, MyProperty.ph established the awards to recognize excellence in the real estate industry. Developers in the Philippines who achieve high quality standards in their projects now have the chance to show how, through their perseverance, innovation, creativity, and hard work,  they stand out from the rest.

Myproperty.ph presented winners in eight categories: Most Eco-Friendly and/Sustainable Development; Fastest Selling Project; Best Housing Loan; Best Investment; Best Luxury Project; Best Starter Home; Best Lifestyle Community; and Development of the Year.

Avida Land was borne out of Ayala land’s desire to bring affordable living at its best to the greatest number of Filipinos.

After two decades of fulfilling dreams and 55 projects in 31 locations, Avida still provides the best community with the security and assurance of a healthy environment.

Keeping in mind its primary goal of creating "dream" shelters that enhance the quality of family life, Avida will continue to develop and maintain communities that set the standard in the industry, promote the growth of property values, ensure better and consistent quality, and deliver excellent value for money.
