Last month's M&W set at Green Bar will be uploaded in a future episode, in order to make way for this month's special "Cali-Jentes West Coast Smooth Jazz" opening set by none other than Markus Jentes , whose birthday we'll be celebrating this upcoming Wednesday July 16 . BACKGROUND - For those who aren't aware, Markus (a.k.a. Mark Cali-Jentes) and I, Elian, go way way back. We first played together a Bellissima in the Fort Strip where we were introduced by common friend Wendell Garcia in 200...

It's a good thing we pushed the "record" button! It's another monthly installment of Music & Wine at Green Bar , and the entire extended family appears to have shown up to celebrate my birthday. What a night! I'm joined once again by none other than DJ Mark Cali-jentes on the decks. Inés , Mackey Maguigad , Jade and Sarada Santos are working the room, and they've all collaborated to have trumpet player Ramon Mancio and a wonderful percussionist join us on stage. I think I've come to the real...

This set was recorded during Holy Week, a holiday in the Philippines when absolutely everything closes. So we invited our friends and their kids to an Easter Egg Hunt, and installed the sound system for the adults. Aside from the music, I made a killer Boeuf Bourguignon served with Basmati Rice, and Inés made a vegan pasta with sun-dried tomatoes. Needless to say, the afternoon was absolute bliss. And we are proud and fortunate to be able to share some of it here with you, our dear listeners. Se...

Well, it looks like our little underground party in a little corner of Legaspi Village is making waves and building a community. Once again, it was me on the decks at Green Bar all night long from 5pm till around midnight, playing anything and everything, as long as it sounded good! As Mr Quincy Jones (rest in power) once said "there's only two kinds of music: good music and bad music." We played only the good kind! Mackey Maguidad (a.k.a. Mr Marcus) surprised me in mid-set by inviting jazz trum...

He's one of Manila's hardest working DJs, and I'll be joining him at the Spirits Library this Friday night, March 14 for a live DJ set. Mike and I belong to Gotsoul, a global community of DJs passionate about spreading the positive, healing powers of Deep House music--a style of dance music known for its organic sound that features natural instruments, jazzy chords, at times soulful vocals, and beats more on the downtempo side of the spectrum. Founded by friend of show Jojo Flores, the multi-awa...

It turns out, if you build it, they'll come! This was the 2nd episode at Music & Wine at our friends Jade and Sarada's place Green Bar in Legaspi Village and, since my co-pilot Mark couldn't join me on the decks, I got to pull off another 7-hour set all on my own... and boy my legs are still sore from all the dancing! Thank goodness I got to record the first part of the evening, that we're playing for you good folks today on the podcast. Look out for deep house and chill afro beats in this 2...

So the DJ's DJ Kevin Ruiz gets married to the love of his life Irene Reyes. For those in our international audience, he is the one who gets some of the credit for bringing New York underground house music from his place of birth, New Jersey, to the Philippines at the tender age of 17, with consequential residencies at clubs like ABG's, 78Orange, Government, Imperial Ice Bar, and others. Who can forget his marathon sets at "Orange" circa 2002 on Saturday nights until 7:30am playing tracks like "R...

Elian & Markus on the decks, Mackey "Mr Marcus" on percussion, Inés working the room, just like the old days.

Well, it just so happens that we have a new residence: UNWND in Poblacion. The venue is a cozy lounge that is part of the boutique hotel by the same name. And the music we deliver is modern jazz.

Here is Set 1 from the debut evening last Friday, and see you there once again on Friday August 26th for more :)

2021 has had a rough start, but overall, I think everyone is looking optimistically to the future. Now that the vaccine has been approved, it's just a matter of time before enough people are vaccinated, and the world finally moves on. Whether it takes a year or two is a matter of semantics. One thing is for sure: the end of the madness is within striking distance. Our hearts go out to those how lost loved ones and to those who lost businesses or jobs due to the pandemic. However, there has got t...
