Shatterday Vs. Lilystars
March 5, 2010

Lilystars Records and select members of The Camerawalls, Turbo Goth and The Bernadettes will join MTV VJ Sib on his very own radio talk show on U92 92.3 FM called “Shatterday Saturday” on March 6 from 2pm to 6pm.

It’s music unusual as Sib dodges the mainstream with great tracks from the best indie acts, both here and abroad, and this time tracks released and published by Lilystars. Pepper that with a lot of interesting chatter — sometimes sensible, sometimes nonsensical, but worth tuning into.

Our Catalogue On SoundCloud
January 26, 2010

Discovered SoundCloud.com two days ago through a track shared by Ian Zafra (Sheila & The Insects) of a Cebu act called Undercover Grasshoppers. With a sudden interest I took a brief tour of the site and its features only to find my myself uploading the whole Lilystars catalogue. You must’ve notice a new music player on our sidebar. Pretty cool eh?!

We have been looking for the best platform for sharing and receiving music. Our search has ended, I hope. The German based site is trendy and has sharing support for individual tracks as well as whole albums or sets with a very stylish music player widget. Each track, album or widget can be shared to Facebook, MySpace, E-mail, WordPress, Blogger, Twitter and is embeddable to any site. >>>

4 Questions On Labeled Blog
January 16, 2010

November of last year I received a message on MySpace by a certain Edward Bingar who works for an indie label in Iowa, US called Workerbee Records asking if I’d be interested to contribute to a self-interview for a friend’s blog that features a diverse number of indie labels. The interview consists of four standard questions to which I willingly obliged.

Here are the questions:
1. Why did you start a label?
2. Why do you keep doing it?
3. Name 5 bands you’d love to release.
4. Do you accept demos, if so where?

You can find the answers at http://labeledblog.com posted December 4th. It came to my attention just a few hours before I wrote this. There are discrepancies regarding the compilation album due to unavoidable delays.
