| Luke Mejares |
During
the 25th Awit Awards, one of the
performers at the ceremonies was Luke Mejares singing his own rendition of the
Randy Santiago classic hit, Babaero.
This song marks a new chapter in Luke’s music career as he speeds up the tempo
with the dance album Kasayaw his third
and latest album released by Ivory Music & Video.
Five
years after his last album Pangako, Luke Mejares, a former South Border vocalist and current Sabado Boys member, returns
to the music scene ready to ignite the dance floor with his own rendition of
dance hits from the past two decades. Aside from Babaero, this album also includes the classic hits like Kasayaw (originally recorded by Archie
D.), Macho Gwapito (Rico J. Puno), Magsayawan (VST and Company), and Iyong-Iyo (Ogie Alcasid). Fellow Sabado
Boy Jimmy Bondoc appears on the track Macho
Gwapito. Bimbo Yance, bassist of the band True Faith is the producer for
this concept album.
The
album also features a Pop Mix and Minus One versions of Kasayaw as well as a Minus One version of Babaero. Some longtime Luke Mejares fans may be let down by the
lack of ballads and his trademark falsetto in this release, but they can be
comforted by dancing and singing along to the tunes offered in this concept
album. A music video for Babaero has also been released.
Luke
Mejares’ Kasayaw was one of the
CD releases under Ivory Music & Video that was presented during the Astroplus Blog-Connect event.
