The Start of Something Big for Bryan Termulo: Releases his sophomore album “Hanggang Ngayon”

Tweet

Bryan Termulo is today's one of the rising great singer. He is a member of ASAP's singing heartthrobs called "Boys Are Boys" together with Alex Castro, Markki Stroem, and JM De Guzman.

I always watch him every Sunday at ABS-CBN ASAP. I’m really happy to meet him personally for the first time, at the Bryan Termulo Bloggers’ Conference held at Moomba Bar and Restaurant at Panay Avenue on Monday , August 13.

The road to success can be a long haul. From the moment an inspiring artist decides to pursue his dreams, he had myriad of obstacles to overcome before ever seeing his name in the bright lights.

Aided by the success of songs as Dadalhin, Pagdating ng Panahon and Hanggang Ngayon, Bryan is surely poised to lay down the foundation for a career that shall carry him well beyond idol status. As a singer and storyteller, Brayan paints pictures that are, at points, hopeful, inspiring and proud.

Bryan got his first taste of spotlight in a singing contest ( he joined Pinoy Pop Superstar Year 3 at GMA 7) where he only emerge as a runner-up, but somehow managed to parlay this into the start something tremendous to him.

He scored big when he released his debut album under BWB Records and Music Production Inc., thanks to Bihag and Paano Nangyari. Both songs were played in 100 Days To Heaven. In 2010, he competed for the World Championships of Performing Arts (WCOPA) and won two silver medals in rock and original works, and one bronze in R&B. Additionally, he was cited by the Philippine Movie Press Club (PMPC) Star Awards for Music in 2012 as one of the nominees for “New Male Recording Artist of the Year.” And the icing on the cake was winning the 2011 Awit Awards’ Best Album Packaging.

Today, Bryan Termulo adds another feather on his cap, as he is now popularly known as The Prince of Teleserye Theme Songs of ABS-CBN aside from being a regular mainstay of ASAP 2012 and a part of Boys Are Boys together with JM de Guzman, Marrki Stroem and Alex Castro. Furthermore, he has been very busy with several TV appearances and magazine interviews, as well as album tours and promotions.

Bryan Termulo has also invaded acting on television. And for a newcomer, he has done very well. His acting is commendable. He appeared in a GMA soap All My Life, before transferring to the Kapamilya Network and did two episodes for Wansapanatym. He also displayed great promise in Budoy as he portrayed the role of Ryan, friend and school mate of BJ (Enrique Gil). This year, he is set to join ‘The Queen of Teleserye,’ Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo in the upcoming drama series on ABS-CBN, Against All Odds. They will be joined by a powerhouse cast which also includes Sam Milby, KC Concepcion, John Estrada, Mylene Dizon, Jessy Mendiola, Joseph Marco, Mr. Tirso Cruz III, and Ms. Coney Reyes.

But that doesn’t mean that Bryan Termulo has no time for singing anymore. He just released his new album Hanggang Ngayon and started promoting it. Raul Leynes, BWB Records’ President, is positive this will surpass the success of Brian’s debut album, Begin.

“It’s entitled Bryan: Hanggang Ngayon to be distributed by Star Records. There are eight (8) songs in the album and each song has a minus one. My friend, Raz Itum, from Frio band, siya ‘yung composer ng song. Actually, marami s’yang song na binigay sa amin. Tapos, isa ‘yung sa Hanggang Ngayon sa napili namin to record, and ‘yun nga ‘yung naging title ng album."

And while riding very high on his success as one of the youngest artists to hit the industry, several laurels of recognition still comes to flock this star’s way. His new song Hanggang Ngayon was nominated at Tambayan OPM Music Awards 2012. Of course, we all know by now, that his song Dadalhin for the teleserye Walang Hanggan, achieved Gold and immediately reached a Platinum record award.

Hanggang Ngayon, the album placed on the 7^th spot in Astroplus/Astrovisions OPM Bestselling album Chart from June 25-July 1, 2012.

And last Sunday( August 12), Bryan launched his newest album “Hanggang Ngayon” under BWB Records and distributed by Star Recods in ASAP 2012. He also just released the music video of “Hanggang Ngayon” with Binibining Pilipinas 2012 Finalist MJ Lastimosa as his leading lady.

And it seems like 2012 s Bryan’s year, as he signed an endorsement with Cethaphil, the #1 recommended brand of cleaners and moisturizers.

Bryan Termulo is currently doing a series of mall shows. Catch him live at the following venues:

August 25               SM Rosario

August 25               SM Novaliches

Armed with talent and looks to boot, this young brilliant balladeer shows more versatility in his new album. Bryan’s 8-track album is composed of 6 originals and has 2 cover songs ( Dadalhin and Pagdating ng Panahon).

1. Lagay Ng Puso
2. Nasan Ka Na
3. Kung Maibabalik
4. Nagtatanong
5. Aanhin Pa
6. Hanggang Ngayon
Bonus Tracks:

8. Pagdating Ng Panahon

Hanggan Ngayon
(Bryan Termulo)

May pagasa pa ba?

Ang pagibig ko sayo

Tila nilimot na, ang isang katulad ko

Na walang ibang hangad,

Kundi ang tulad mo, hooooooo.....

Puso’y ngangamba, kung babalik ka pa?

Dito sa piling ko, na hindi ko madama

Nasan ka na kaya?

At ako’y nilisan na. Hooooo...

Hanggang ngayon, ikaw parin

Ang hinahanap ng puso’t isipan

Hanggang ngayon walang iba

Sa puso ikaw lamang sinta

Hanggang ngayon...

May pag asa kaya?, na Makita kang muli

At makapiling ka sa bawat sandal

Sana ay marinig ang tangi kong hiling

Hanggang ngayon, ikaw parin

Ang hinahanap ng puso’t isipan

Hanggang ngayon walang iba

Sa puso ikaw lamang sinta

Hanggang ngayon  . . .

Maghihintay at aasa pang muli

Sana ikaw ay magbalik . . .

Hanggang ngayon, ikaw parin

Ang hinahanap ng puso’t isipan

Hanggang ngayon walang iba

Sa puso ikaw lamang sinta

Hanggang ngayon, ikaw parin

Ang hinahanap ng puso’t isipan

Hanggang ngayon walang iba

Sa puso ikaw lamang sinta

Hanggang ngayon...

Hooo....

Make sure you get a copy of his new album in your favorite record bars nationwide!

One Fighting Championship presents: ANDREI ARLOVSKI VS. TIM SYLVIA

Tweet

One of the most imposing fighters to ever compete in MMA is former UFC Heavyweight Champion and Belarusian native Andrei "The Pit Bull" Arlovski. Once considered the No. 1 Heavyweight in the world and the bona fide "Baddest Man On The Planet", Arlovski was an unstoppable force who seemed to relish knocking his opponents senseless. Early in his career, Arlovski relied heavily on his Russian Sambo grappling base and won some of his early fights by submission. But now, he is f amed for being one of the fastest heavyweight strikers in the world and boasts an extensive highlight reel of knockouts. To make matters worse for his prospective opponents, Arlovski now works on his boxing with legendary boxing trainer Freddie Roach, who also coaches Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao.

One of the most frightening figures the MMA world has ever witnessed in cage-fighting action is Tim "The Maine-iac" Sylvia. Towering at over two meters tall, this brute of a man poses a serious threat to every heavyweightfighter in the world. Apart from the fact that he  could crush an ordinary man's skull with his hand, Sylvia has fought 38 times, won the UFC Heavyweight Championship twice, knocked out 20 opponents and has fought the very best fighters in the world. Sylvia's unusual combination of size and quickness has ushered in a new era of monstrous, weight cutting heavyweights who seek total domination of their smaller counterparts.

These two men absolutely despise each other. Their heated rivalry first sparked in 2005 when Arlovski submitted Sylvia for the interim UFC Heavyweight Championship. The inevitable rematch a year later saw Sylvia knock Arlovski out in the very first round to take away his heavyweight crown. Two months later, the two men were at each other other's throats again in a battle that ended with Sylvia out-striking Arlovski for the unanimous decision victory. The rivalry developed into an extremely personal affair when it was reported that Sylvia had gotten together with Arlovski's ex-girlfriend, adding a whole new dimension to the trash-talking and name calling by the rivals. On 31 August, they will get one more chance to rip each other apart, in a very personal way.
