GMA news article: What inspired you to write "Bulan?" Ken - "I've always been fond of our culture, especially ancient Filipino culture and mythology. Like the story of Bulan, Haliya, and the Bakunawa. I thought it would be good to explore the subject. It worked out well because the story is a good metaphor for what I was writing, about crab mentality and how other people try to tear down those who are trying to pursue their dreams. Bakunawa tries to swallow the light but thankfully fails to do so."
@@hadazzahfaith Really po?? I’m a Bisaya 😂 I don’t even recognized it.. I just saw the lyrics and I’ve never seen any bisaya words in it. Okay Lemme check it again 🤧
INTRO VOCALS: STELL AJERO. Ken is truly full of pleasant surprises. The fact that he focused on local mysticism using the moon as a symbol has a universalizing effect. Western mythology has no monopoly on the subject. The world shares common themes that intersect and lend greater significance to the symbols of our culture. Music is culture- and just like everything else, it's a shared symbol, a shared experience, a shared universe, a shared mind/landscape that we can traverse together. Congratulations, Ken. Hope to see more of you and Stell in a future project. I love Bulan already. You're a treasure. ^_^
When you visit in August, you can actually go to where they shot this MV. It is the Paoay Sand Dunes in Ilocos Norte (Northern Philippines). Its a famous tourist spot. also I'm already conceptualizing a fanart series for this
I love the scrolling in the descriptions a d credits.Its like paying homage , an utmost respect to the artistic team / production.Thank you Lydia hope you enjoy your travel in mla Philippines.
Felip is a genius and extra ordinary artist. His craft is unique and everything he does is so captivating and intense. It feels like I’m watching a movie with this Bulan of Felip, everything are so intense and powerful!🔥
I waited for Bakuna to show up and Miko did so well. Better than the CGIs done for local mainstream tv series. Thank you so much Felip for this mv. 👏🏻👏🏻
Your reaction at the end in the mv is totally just like me.😆 We both said the same thing. "This is way too short" 😩 but yeah he gave's us visuals. an epic comeback, a high quality of mv, a deep ass voice as he always have, so yeah .. I'm gonna be okay tho for me, it's still too short.
Your reaction is priceless Lydia! My mind was also blown by this MV, felip indeed never cease to amaze us. I had goosebumps, my brain has gone wild for 3 minutes and 24 secs.🤣🤣
I like the beginning part with the intro voice of Stell, goosebumps!!! It made me wander to explore the another realm with ready to fight tooth and nail vibes. What a SUPERIOR MASTERPIECE?!!! I am the proudest Sisiw! Chirp! Chirp! Love your RV Lydia! 💙 Thank you for being constant to Felip.
The thing i like about it is that he makes it with the mix of Filipino folks and modern music to tell the story or bulan and bakunawa. Truly a Filipino musician that you sa show to the word
Bulan, the God of moon, is an adolescent boy with fair skin and long dark hair. He was placed in the "Kamurayan" or heavens by Gugurang, the Bicolano supreme deity. Haliya, the Goddess of the moon, is Bulan's sister who hides her beauty behind a mask. In the music video, a thin cloth "masks" her. Other versions say that Bulan created Haliya to keep him company and to protect him as well. Because unlike Bulan who is weak & submissive, Haliya is fierce & strong. Bakunawa used to be a goddess but lost her beauty and became a dragon-like being as a punishment for being arrogant and greedy. When Haliya and Bulan descended to the Earth to bathe, everyone was in awe of their beauty. Bakunawa fell in love with Bulan but was neglected. She swore to claim Bulan from the sky as a revenge. Whenever Bakunawa tries to devour the moon, people would light torches and make noises to call Haliya because as a strong goddess she protects Bulan. Additional info: Bulan and Haliya are beautiful, supernatural beings, youthful and elegant, and superb in the art of dancing. The dancers could be (or symbolize) the "Tawong Lipod" or the nymphs of the wind. They are the court servants and handmaidens of Bulan and Haliya. There are two popular versions of the Bulan-Haliya-Bakunawa myth; the Bicol version and the Visayan version. The video shows the Bicol version.
Yes lydia Ken/Felip makes music not for virals, as well as with his group SB19, They make music to inspire, to dig differ what we learn from their lyrics, mostly they live their roots, country and story of this, thats why we are so love them bec they give us not just music for heartache but to help us to be better and fight for our dreams

I feel that Felip has the capabilities to create and produce a movie or write a movie soundtrack. I can see that talent in him.😘👍👏
