Tweet

Sweet, rock and a whole lot of bold, the 90s were an era of statement making music that shook the core and revitalized Philippine music. Hear the pulse raising hits in “90s Overload” happening on November 17, 2018 at The Theatre at Solaire. 

“90s Overload reminisces the era when Original Pilipino Music (OPM) found its footing in the rock scene. The grungy, attitude-filled acoustics merged with the soulful lyrics that is normally the signature of our ballads were what made it appealing and relatable. The 90s music were statement makers which made them click with a wide audience then, and even with today’s younger generation,” says Solaire Resort & Casino’s Director for Entertainment Audie Gemora. 

Photo shows: (Left to right) Dodong Cruz of The Youth, Perf de Castro of Rivermaya, Myra Ruaro of Put3ska, and Glenn Jacinto of Teeth; Stephen Lu of Rizal Underground, Noel Palomo of Siakol, Lei Bautista of Prettier than Pink, and Jek Manuel of IAXE Band; Cookie Chua of Color It Red, Wency Cornejo of After Image, Naldy Padilla of Orient Pearl, and Paco Arespacochaga of Introvoys.

The concert will bring together the 90s most iconic band voices to sweep its audience onto its currents. Jek Manuel of IAXE Band, Cooky Chua of Color It Red, Lei Bautista of Prettier than Pink, Paco Arespacochaga of Introvoys, Perf De Castro of Rivermaya, Glenn Jacinto of Teeth, Wency Cornejo of After Image, Myra Ruaro of Put3ska, Naldy Padilla of Orient Pearl, Dodong Cruz of The Youth, Stephen Lu of Rizal Underground and Noel Palomo of Siakol will sing their most prolific songs to bring in the nostalgia tide after tide. 

Myra Ruaro of Put3ska shares that the 90s music scene was a time when ingenuity was abundant, “The Pinoy 90s music scene was the time of great musical opportunities for artists and bands with truly creative and unique original compositions. There was so much talent coming from the rock scene and the musicians’ diverse musical personas made the vibe truly exciting and progressive.” The diversity in sound, interpretation and style created a culture where each is a mentor to the other, “Everyone knew everyone and supported each other’s music. Though we had our own unique sound and identity, we were all part of one community, one family, one barkada,” says Prettier than Pink’s Lei Bautista. 

The era’s richness in musical material that spoke to one in a personal level made it difficult for most to pick which they would consider as their 90s anthem. But for some, there are songs that are more long-lasting than others. Cooky Chua of Color It Red cites “Nanaman” from their band’s first album, “Ito yung pinaka unang kantang nasulat ng banda namin for Ateneo Fair”, while for Rizal Underground’s Stephen Lu, “It would be “Alapaap”. The lyrics brings us to a different level of high. The music has its rock feel but with pop sensibilities”. 

Asked what they’re looking forward to in their upcoming concert, the four artists gave the same answers. “We want to bring back the audience to the 90s and recreate the same energy and atmosphere while we get to hang out with old and new artist friends, says Lei. Cooky adds, “Sabi ko nga kay Wency (Cornejo), I do this for the friendship and bonding. It feels good to hang out with the artists na kasama dito, hindi trabaho.” 

Concert goers will definitely witness a big jamming session of their favorites 90s anthems that will make them unconsciously bob their heads, sing along, and jump up from their seats.

The Importance of Breakfast Discussed Mondelez Philippines supports Philippine Society of Nutritionist-Dietitians’ Annual Convention

Tweet

The Philippine Society of Nutritionist-Dietitians, Inc.’s (PSND) annual convention was held last September 19 and 20 at the Diamond Hotel in Manila. The convention focused on the theme “Adding More Life to Years: An Integrative Approach to Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) Prevention.” NCDs refer to chronic diseases which may last for long periods of time and progress slowly like diabetes and obesity, among others. The event was attended by some 440 experts and practitioners in nutrition alike, aimed at empowering them with new knowledge and information to help Filipinos live healthier lives.

In support of this cause, Mondelez Philippines became a partner of the PSND’s annual convention. Mondelez Philippines is a company which aims to empower consumers to snack right, by offering the right snack, for the right moment, made the right way. Its products include some of the Philippines’ favorite snack products like Tangpowdered beverage, Eden Cheese and Cheez Whizspread, Oreo cookies and Toblerone and Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolates. 

Mondelez Philippines, Inc. supported the Philippine Society of Nutritionist-Dietitians, Inc.’s (PSND) annual convention last September 19 and 20. The convention focused on integrative approaches to avoiding non-communicable diseases (NCD). Mondelez Philippines shared a discussion on the importance of eating breakfast to help prevent NCDs like obesity and diabetes. Speaking for the Company was Lim Chain Yin, Nutrition Strategy and Communications Specialist from Mondelēz International in Malaysia. 

This 2018, the Company launched a new product, belVitabreakfast biscuits. belVita is the first biscuit in the Philippines that has been especially designed for breakfast. It’s made with whole grain cereals, which include whole wheat and oat, and is fortified with vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin A, B1, B2, B3, D, calcium, iron and zinc. Thanks to more than 15 years of research, belVita is also baked using a special Mondelēz International gentle baking process, which helps to preserve the nutrition quality of its cereal ingredients.

“Breakfast is important,” shares Lim. “It is the meal that energizes the body for the day ahead. It is supposed to “break the fast,” which is the time the body does not consume any food because of sleep. Apart from making up for the “fasting,” eating breakfast also promotes better concentration at school, work and play, prevents early exhaustion, and helps avoid mood swings, unnecessary cravings and hunger pangs by fueling up the body.” 

She continues, “A balanced breakfast should contain all the food groups namely those which give energy, those which help in body building and repair, the ones which help in regulating normal body functions. For a common breakfast, this means having rice, bread, other grains or cereals, an egg and/or milk, and a piece of fruit.” 

“belVita contains whole grain cereals, which are a main source of energy, and 8 vitamins and minerals which help regulate bodily functions,” explains Lim. “When paired with a source of protein like milk or yogurt and a fruit like an apple or a banana, it can provide a complete breakfast to keep you energized. What’s more, it’s a convenient breakfast because you can bring it on-the-go, even while on the way to work. This convenience helps to avoid skipping breakfast and ensure you get the right nutrients despite your busy day.” 

With belVita, Mondelēz International aims to empower consumers to snack right, for the right moment and made the right way.
