The iconic singer-songwriter brings timeless hits and new songs to life with The Manila String Machine in a monumental repeat concert directed by Paolo Valenciano

For the second staging of his monumental concert, Ebe will be joined by a 20-piece orchestra led by Chino David, with Paolo Valenciano directing the whole show. The concert promises to be a showcase of his legacy both as a solo artist and as the lead singer/principal songwriter behind pop-rock powerhouse Sugarfree.

“I’ve had a long love aair with orchestras, dating back to my days with Sugarfree,” Dancel shares. “As a solo performer, I did a show with the Manila String Machine exactly two weeks before our government announced the lockdown due to Covid. To be back onstage with them now, with fans in front of me, feels like a full circle moment.”

The setlist, he reveals, will strike a careful balance between nostalgia and discovery. “I want it to be a mix of old and newer songs. I thought of my audience mainly when I chose songs from the Sugarfree catalog, but I also want them to experience the new songs with an orchestra.”

The repeat concert also is Ebe’s way of deepening his connections further with trusted collaborators. “Paolo [Valenciano] is a dear friend. I have so much respect for him as a concert director, so he was my only choice to do this show again. For me to work on something this big, I need to be able to fully trust the guys running the show. Hence Paolo Valenciano, and as musical director, Chino David.”

Dilaw takes us on a journey through heartbreaks, growth, and life with first full-length album, ‘RARARA’


After months of radio silence, Uhaw-hit makers Dilaw are back with their first-ever full-length album. Entitled RARARA, a play on the Filipino word tara, which means “let’s go”, the 10-track album is set to arrive on September 5, 2025. Select loyal fans of Dilaw were given an incredible opportunity to hear the full album, which the band played live for the first time to a public audience in their hometown of Baguio, last August 9, 2025.

Pre-save RARARA Abum now!

Last March, the band released FLYING KISS, a song that reflects how some breakups can be peaceful, a calm break up anthem. The release of the song and the sudden radio silence created speculations and buzz among fans about what was happening with the band. Marking their return was the release of their follow up single last August 8. BLACK N’ WHITE tells the story of a monotonous world transforming into vibrant colors by someone special–only to realize it was just all a daydream during a road trip.

RARARA is the band’s storytelling of their journey through the highs and lows of life, a story of perseverance, growth, and finding strength in the pursuit of happiness. From the spontaneity of new adventures in SEYP to the quiet introspection in ! (TANDANG PADAMDAM), each track invites listeners to embrace the unexpected and find beauty in life’s unpredictability. Through heartbreaks in IKAW AT AKO AY and the realization of self-worth in ALL IN, the album highlights the importance of letting go and moving forward, reminding us that true healing comes from within. Shaped by heartbreaks and driven by their determination to overcome life’s challenges, Dilaw is taking us on a musical journey about learning, reflecting, growing, and celebrating the different paths taken, the lessons learned, and the people you meet along the way.

“Yes! May album na kami!” - Dilaw

With a desire to return to their roots, the album was written and produced in Baguio, where the band originated. The album not only reflects the origins of their musicality, but the accompanying creative photos and music videos will make you want to hop in your car and drive to enjoy the sights and sounds of cool and bustling Baguio.

Dilaw is set to have their first album concert on September 6, 2025, at Soundcheck Studios, Pasig. With opening acts like Novocrane, Kenaniah, and Kamikazee, fans are guaranteed to experience an incredible ride. Tickets are now available on https://www.xperto.live/events/dilaw-sa-pasig-sa-may-soundcheck-studios. The album concert will also serve as the kick-off for their upcoming album tour.

Dilaw has a lot in store for everyone in the coming weeks, so pack your bags, start the car, and get ready to play the ultimate road trip soundtrack.

David Archuleta marks a bold and confident new chapter with EP Earthly Delights


American singer-songwriter David Archuleta marks a bold and confident new chapter with EP Earthly Delights. Basking in the worldwide success of his hit single, ‘Crème Brûlée’ and follow-up single, ‘Can I Call You’, David is now ready to share more from his first collection of new music in over five years in Earthly Delights. 

Earthly Delights Track List 


1. Give You The World

2. Crème Brûlée

3. Can I Call You

4. Lucky

5. Home

6. Dulce Amor

On more about Earthly Delights, David shares, “I’m in my indulgence mode when it comes to giving into my sensuality. Something I always villainized before. There’s something sweet about being naughty. And it’s actually helped me to get in touch with more tender vulnerable parts of myself. So Earthly Delights is taking in the pleasures of what I always thought would keep me out of heaven. For the belief I always had of the hell and unhappiness I would experience for giving into my “carnal nature” of sexuality, which is the natural instinct of humans and even what leads to the source of life itself, here’s to a big F you to my old fears and embracing the sensual side and “earthly delights” of how good and rich it feels. It really is the source to life.”

 

Questioning the beliefs and indoctrination of his youth, the innately angelic David Archuleta has fallen out of graces with the church and his family. Traversing through his own personal hells, he finds a connection with his inner strength in the process— and grounding in his own authentic queer identity. David now re-emerges into the realm of earthly delights. Here, he explores the pleasures and pain of terrestrial life: the sweet indulgences of connection and heartbreak, sensuality and physicality. Innocent at the core, but now balanced and rounded by newfound flirtiness and sass, boldness and humor— he’s an embodied being of the earth, here to take in the full spectrum of what life has to offer, with courage, playfulness, and a beaming inner light.

Additionally, just days before releasing Earthly Delights, David premiered the music video for ‘Dulce Amor’ on August 12, 2025. A seamless fusion of English and Spanish, ‘Dulce Amor’ is a shimmering pop track that captures the rush of falling hard and fast for someone you just want more of, blending the flirtatious energy of ‘Crème Brûlée’ and the sultry ache of ‘Can I Call You’.

David Archuelta is a Miami-born singer and songwriter who first stepped into the spotlight at age 17, quickly establishing a genuine star power that can’t be manufactured. Over the years, he has captivated audiences with his radiant personality and phenomenal voice, producing multiple platinum-selling hits, earning global acclaim as a dynamic live performer, and emerging as an undeniable fixture on the pop-culture scene.

In a world that moves fast and demands more, HUAWEI introduces its latest tablet innovation to help take ambitions to greater heights, the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025). This powerful, portable partner is built to match users’ pace and help them achieve their goals with PC-like experience, paper-like writing, and pro-level creation with the GoPaint app.

 

PC-Like Experience on the Go

The HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025) is designed for the young go-getters. It transforms portable productivity by delivering seamless intelligent performance anytime, anywhere. The HUAWEI Smart Keyboard keeps things light yet powerful with lightweight, streamlined clip-on design. The detachable keyboard design supports both PC and Split forms to cater to users’ real-time needs. Its 1.5mm key travel makes typing smooth and effortless, thanks to its springy keys and ergonomic design. The keyboard also supports function keys for laptop-level ease of use.

The tablet changes the way users stay productive with its free PC-level WPS Office apps, which eliminates the limitations of the tablet version of the apps suite and has an intuitive interface similar to the PC version. The PC-level WPS Office suite is loaded with functional optimizations such as formulas for spreadsheets and dynamic animations for presentations. Paired with the HUAWEI Smart Keyboard, the PC-level WPS Office enables seamless switching between PC and tablet and empowers users to work smarter wherever, whenever.

The improved Floating Multi-Window feature makes multi-tasking easier than ever with PC-level navigation on the tablet’s immersive 11.5-inch display. It offers three window ratios, enhancing work or study sessions by allowing users to simultaneously view documents and jot down notes while researching on the web.

Paper-Like Writing, Reimagined

The HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025)’s standout feature is the innovative PaperMatte Display, made possible by advanced nano-level etching and magnetron nano optical coating technologies. This resulted in astounding anti-glare and anti-reflective properties that ensure clear, vibrant display even under direct sunlight and brightly lit offices. The nano-level etching also provides special textures on the screen’s surface, which mimic the look and feel of writing and drawing on paper.

To reduce eye strain, HUAWEI engineered the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025)’s display using the new circularly polarized light technology, reproducing the behavior of natural light for softer and more evenly dispersed illumination. The PaperMatte Display has received certifications for its eye-soothing properties, including the SGS Low Visual Fatigue Premium Performance 2.0, TÜV Rheinland Circular Polarization, and TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light and Flicker-Free, ensuring eye safety and comfort in any scenario.

Beyond its eye-friendly features, the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025) features a vibrant display with 2456 x 1600 resolution and a dazzling 600-nit peak brightness. It delivers sharper visuals for every kind of task, from reading and writing, to viewing and beyond.

Portability and Power in a Sleek, Streamlined Frame

The HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025) packs a powerful performance in a sleek, lightweight build. Available in Violet and Space Gray, the tablet boasts a slim 6.1mm all-metal unibody that weighs only 515g. This lightweight design is crafted with precision engineering to make the frame thinner yet stronger while fitting in a larger battery.

Its massive 10,100mAh battery powers over 14 hours of high-resolution local video playback, while 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge recharges the battery to full in just 94 minutes. A quick 30-minute charge gives users hours of use, so users no longer need to worry about looking for an outlet to plug-in while studying or working outside. Accessories like the HUAWEI M-Pencil (3rd Generation) can now charge wirelessly with a one-click clasp to enhance convenience.
