OngakuSociety would also like to take this opportunity to clarify that contrary to one of the the articles printed on the Sunday Inquirer Magazine, OS was not the organizer of the festivities for Philippine NANA Day. SEVEN Pilipinas deserves full credit for the event, and we would like to congratulate them again for the successful gig.

Thanks again to Sunday Inquirer Magazine and SEVEN Pilipinas for your support!

Tuning into Japan

MANILA, Philippines - There’s alternative music inching to cross over into the mainstream—and it’s made in Japan.

Twice a year, about 1,000 fans of Japanese rock or J-Rock gather together as a community in concerts that celebrate the music they love. J-Rock cover bands, composed mostly of male college students and adoring female fans, a motley crowd of high school kids, colegialas and young professionals, turn up for these gigs.

Five years ago, the entire Japanese music scene in the Philippines was restricted to Internet mailing lists which allowed fans to merely trade information on Japanese acts and their recordings. The lists did not gather enough support from their intended audience and their own administrators, who failed to sustain the lists.

In 2003, a group of fans met at an anime convention and started toying with the idea of putting up an organization that would serve as a venue for local enthusiasts to share with others their passion for contemporary Japanese pop. The Ongaku Society was born and a website (http://www.ongaku-society.org/) followed, which has become a hang-out on the Web for Pinoy Japanophiles.
