Effect of the Doppler Effect

This Doppler Effect has got me obsessing over the bands again, darn it. O eto, 8 folks in the local music scene today I am honored to have met (can anyone say hero-worship?).

In no particular order:

Buddy Zabala - Isa siyang henyo ng musika, and yet he maintains a very unassuming aura. It's like being around him is such a humbling experience.

Raimund Marasigan - The busiest of bees never seems to run out of adventures to take and new roads to follow. A professional musician to the core. His motto is probably "Carpe Diem!"

Myrene Academia - One of the NU DJs of old that I miss. Laid back rocker chick with a cool, smooth voice. Lady bassist of two great bands, too!

Aia de Leon - She's cute, sexy, nice, and has a devastatingly beautiful voice quite unmatched by any other vocalist out there today (except possibly Ebe Dancel, but we'll get to him later...)

Marie Jamora - She's a film director, a drummer, and a singer too! What else can't she do?

Kris Gorra-Dancel - Cool lass with a distinct sense of style. She's unafraid to be who she is, and she firmly holds her ground as the lone she-wolf in a pack of five. Basta, astig siya.

Ebe Dancel - With such heart-wrenching lyrics delivered by equally heartbreaking vocals, what's not to love about this guy? Dagdag pogi points pa ang glasses effect, hehehe.

Vin Dancel - Genius of a songwriter, and an explosively intense performer. If there's one person I would credit for my love of local indie music, it's gotta be Manong Vin. His passion and conviction is just so inspiring, I can't help but join the cause he persistently upholds - Independensya!
