Annual nationwide celebration returns this July with live performances, industry talks, and new regional collaborations that spotlight the evolving sound of Filipino music

Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino (LMP), the country’s annual nationwide celebration of Filipino music, returns this year with revitalized programming designed to champion the rich and diverse music scene in the Philippines.

Established through Proclamation No. 933 and signed by the late President Benigno S. Aquino III in 2014, LMP has become a viral platform for recognizing the lognstanding legacy of Original Pilipino Music. For more than twelve years, it has consistently inspired greater appreciation for homegrown music and played a crucial role in fostering a culture of collaboration and community in its month-long activities.

This year’s theme, “Pinoy Coded,” celebrates Filipino identity by highlighting how music reflects the nation’s culture, stories, and shared experiences. Through this year’s Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino, the campaign aims to strengthen support for OPM and recognize the artists, songwriters, producers, music practitioners, and industry stakeholders whose contributions continue to enrich the Filipino music catalog and make it world-class.

OPM President Ogie Alcasid explains, “The theme this year was a product of being exposed to current trends and trying to engage with a younger core audience. But we still wanted to retain that love for our music and our culture. Hence, why we went with the theme Pinoy Coded. It celebrates Filipino music, but at the same time, it also acknowledges the ever-growing and evolving landscape and audience of our local music industry.”

Throughout July, Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino 2026 will present an eclectic and well-curated lineup of performances, educational programs, and community initiatives across multiple venues in Metro Manila, Luzon, Visayas, and the rest of the country. This year’s festivities include the return of OPM Spotlight, a month-long concert series featuring OPM member-artists performing original compositions alongside iconic Filipino classics. Expanding beyond the capital, the celebration also welcomes collaborations with regional partners such as Nine Degrees North in Baguio, Palawan’s Songwriters’ Community, and Passion8 Events & Services in Iloilo, reinforcing the festival’s commitment to making the celebration more inclusive and representative of the country’ s vibrant music communities.

“For this year’s celebration, we’re excited to collaborate with productions outside of Metro Manila,” OPM Executive Director Gab Cabangon adds. “It has always been our goal to expand the LMP celebration to different parts of the country so that we get to celebrate and highlight the diversity and excellence of Filipino music and Filipino artists.”

OPM Spotlight: LMP2026 runs from July 1 to 31, with performances across different venues including Kubo at JT’s Manukan in Quezon City, Burnt Edges branches in Makati City, Beach House Bar & Grill in Marikina, What’s Your Poison in Población, and partner-produced stages in Palawan and Iloilo. Music fans can also expect an exciting showcase of OPM member-artists performing their original music and fresh renditions of iconic Filipino songs, highlighting the creativity and diverse voices at the forefront of the Philippine music landscape.

Complementing the Spotlight series is the LMP2026: Rockwell Series, an all-OPM acoustic showcase happening from July 25 to 31 at Power Plant Mall in Rockwell, Makati. Featuring eleven OPM solo artists performing a blend of original compositions and OPM favorites, the series continues Rockwell’s longstanding support for Filipino music by bringing live performances to one of the country’s premier lifestyle destinations. Meanwhile, aspiring musicians will also have their moment through LMP2026: OPM-ic Open Mic Night on July 29 at Backdoor. Maginhawa, where emerging artists and non-OPM members can perform original songs and OPM covers before fellow music enthusiasts. Proceeds from the event will directly support Organisasyon ng mga Pilipinong Mang-Aawit’s future programs and initiatives.

Aside from live performances, LMP2026 continues its commitment to industry development through the LMP202 Music Talk Series on July 25 at Trinoma Cinema 6. Entirely dedicated to songwriters, producers, arrangers, music professionals, students, and other stakeholders, the half-day forum will tackle key issues concerning today’s music ecosystem: from industry research and creator support to music discovery, production, distribution, royalties, and emerging trends. The event also aims to foster meaningful dialogue, encourage collaboration, and equip participants with practical knowledge for navigating the evolving music industry.

Cabangon emphasizes that this year’s Music Talk Series aims to provide a better understanding of the current landscape of the industry and provide practical guidance for those who want to pursue music as a career and passion. “We think it’s important that the various kinds of information are shared with other artists and professionals because we want as many members of our industry to succeed and thrive. We want artists and music industry professionals to be able to elevate their craft and their status because they’re making better-informed choices. We also want the Music Talk Series to be a space for professionals to connect with one another and expand their respective networks in the industry. We also think knowing where we are now as a local music industry would help us explore ways on how we can improve and grow as a whole in an ever-evolving landscape.”

Beyond its function as a festival, Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino remains a powerful movement that deepens appreciation for Original Pilipino Music while ensuring its continued preservation and growth. By providing platforms for both established and emerging artists, encouraging public engagement, and creating opportunities for music education and collaboration, LMP proves that Filipino music is not only an essential part of the country’s cultural identity but also a sustainable entity capable of inspiring future generations.

FILSCAP President Arturo “Nonoy Tan” Lui Pio believes in the importance of valuing music and supporting the music creators behind it. “That’s why Linggo ng Musikang Pilipino (LMP) is a meaningful celebration for us. Through our partnership with OPM, we continue to advance this shared advocacy of encouraging more Filipinos to appreciate, support, and take pride in original Filipino music and the creators whose voices, stories, and creativity shape the sound of our nation.”

Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino 2026 is presented by Organisasyon ng mga Pilipinong Mang-Aawit’s (OPM) and FILSCAP, with support from Power Plant Mall as a major partner as well as MBC Media Group and Soundesign Manila as LMP2026 partners. OPM Spotlight and other music performances are made possible through collaboration with Nine Degrees North, Passion8 Events & Services, and the Palawan Songwriters’ Community. Promotional support is provided by DTI & Malikhaing Pinoy, IPOPHL, PRM, and PhilPop.

Fans can relive the music that defined a generation as the band returns with live performances and the long-awaited vinyl edition of its classic debut album

Filipino alternative rock icons TEETH are coming together once again for a five-city reunion tour, commemorating over 30 years of friendship, musical influence, and rock ‘n’ roll.

Titled Year 33: TEETH The Reunion – Legacy Tour, the concert series begins on August 30, 2026, at the Foochow Event Building Hall in Singapore. The band will then continue the tour in the Philippines with performances in Manila on September 5, Davao on September 12, Iloilo on September 19, and Cebu on September 26.

Tickets for the Singaporean leg of the tour are now available via: https://teeth-reunion-sg2026.peatix.com

In line with the concert tour, TEETH will release their landmark debut album on vinyl for the first time. Widely regarded as one of the defining releases of the 1990s Pinoy rock movement, the album introduced Filipino listeners to life-affirming crossover anthems such as “Laklak” and Prinsesa,” songs that transcended generations and helped shape the sound of the local rock music landscape. The album eventually earned Double Platinum certification from the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI), selling more than 80,000 copies during its time.

The upcoming vinyl edition has been newly remastered by acclaimed mastering engineer Shinji Tanaka and will be issued in a strictly limited pressing of 500 copies on standard black vinyl. Produced by Backspacer Records, the LP also features newly commissioned artwork by award-winning visual artist Nix Puno, whose hand-painted interpretation offers a fresh but faithful homage to the album’s original cover.

For the band’s most dedicated supporters, the vinyl will be included as a bundle in the exclusive 33^rd Anniversary Add-On Package, available as a premium concert offering for all Philippine tour dates only. The exclusive collector’s package includes a limited-edition, band-signed 33rd anniversary vinyl; a commemorative event shirt and trucker cap; an exclusive sticker pack; a signed event poster; and premium fan experiences such as a meet-and-greet session, an exclusive listening party, soundcheck access, and a group photo opportunity with the band.

Formed in 1993, TEETH is one of the most important bands that emerged from the alternative rock explosion of the ‘90s. The band is currently composed of original members Glenn Jacinto on vocals, Jerome Velasco on guitars, Pedz Narvaja on bass, Mike Dizon on drums, and Dok Sergio on guitars, formerly on bass.

Renowned for their signature blend of alternative rock and grunge, with shoegaze elements showcased in their third studio album, I Was A Teenage Tree, TEETH helped shape the OPM rock scene through their melodic compositions and raw, distinctive sound. Their impact on Filipino music earned them numerous accolades, including three NU Rock Awards and two MTV Pilipinas Awards nominations.

Year 33: TEETH The Reunion – Legacy Tour is produced by BLKSHPMNL Lifestyle & Entertainment Management Inc. (BLACKSHEEP MANILA) in partnership with S32 Production of Singapore. Ticket details for the Philippine leg of the tour are expected to be announced soon.

After a two-year hiatus, Golden Melody Award-winning artist Shi Shi (孫盛希) is finally back with her new EP The Taste Of…, a project that represents the accumulation of her experiences during her break.

“During this period, I experienced a wide range of emotions, from the sweet ones to the bitter ones, and even some moments that were sour or spicy! It is hard to describe the feelings we feel every day using merely our words, but sometimes they can be expressed and digested in a song.”

“In this EP, each track is like a unique cocktail, bringing a different flavour and taste profile, and a different composition of ingredients and emotions. I hope my listeners can savour each one of them!”

Listen to Shi Shi’s new EP The Taste Of… here 

The Taste Of… is Shi Shi’s first-ever English-based EP, featuring songs in three languages – English, Mandarin and Korean, a nod towards her roots in South Korea and a first step of Shi Shi’s career onto an international stage.

The album brings together an impressive lineup of global producers, further elevating its musical craftsmanship. Contributors include K-pop producer parkhyeon, who has worked with MISAMO (TWICE) and (G)I-DLE’s Miyeon; Different Sleep, whose recording credits include Zara Larsson and Aminé; and Latin Grammy-winning producer Andrø Pop. Among the album’s tracks, the two songs featuring Korean lyrics—‘Falling in Love’ and ‘Tteokbokki’—stand out as its most gentle and intimate moments.

In ‘Tteokbokki’, Shi Shi breaks away from her usual inspirations of relationships, and works off a theme of “food memories”, portraying the emotions of the purest friendships that are both comfortable and also the hardest to come by, recorded as an ode to old friends.

To Shi Shi, who grew up in South Korea, “떡볶이” (Tteokbokki), the traditional spicy Korean rice cake, is not just a familiar snack, but also a symbolism of youth, reminding her of the path that she took to go home each day after school, and the warm atmosphere of the eateries where she spent her time growing up with her friends.

Shi Shi worked with Chinese American producer Morrison Ma (MOSUN) on ‘Tteokbokki’ to bring a retro feeling to the gentle song, which opens with a self-recorded slice-of-life audio of a busy Korean market to bring the audience into the atmosphere.

In the music video, Shi Shi reunites with her old friend, actress Lee Jung-Min, who previously acted in iconic K-dramas like What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim and Duty After School. Although the two have not met for 16 years, they always kept in touch, and in their first-time working together, showed great chemistry with each other.

Similarly in the music video, they play the role of two childhood friends who come together after a long time in their same local eatery, catching up on all the years that they missed.

Shi Shi is a third-generation South Korean-Chinese singer-songwriter who is based in Taiwan. Her artistry has been recognised in Taiwan at the highest level, having been crowned with the “Best Female Singer” and “Best Album” awards at the prestigious Golden Melody Awards.

In 2020, Shi Shi also gained popularity with her title track ‘Someday or One Day’ for the hit Taiwanese series Someday or One Day (想见你), one of the most popular dramas in recent years. In 2024, she also released a collaborative single ‘Goodbye Spring’ with South Korean jazz artist Lee Jin-ah, gaining attention in both Taiwan and Korea.

Leading into her new EP, Shi Shi highlights her ambitions to continue making music for an international audience, paving the way for the next era of her music.

Enchanted Kingdom, the first and only world-class theme park in the Philippines, celebrated inclusivity, togetherness, and strong family ties among Filipinos through its back-to-back Pride Month and Father’s Day festivities last June.

Concluding this quarter’s Forever Enchanted Summer campaign on a high note, EK brought to life a series of seasonal activities and popup experiences that created even more quality bonding moments for families and communities throughout the month.

The festivities kicked off with Magic of EKquality: A Celebration of Pride Talents, which showcased world-class Filipino talent through performances by exceptional members of the LGBTQIA+ community last June 7, 13 and 14 at the Bandstand.

Among the featured acts were Magic of EKquality Talent Competition 2024 grand winner Alquin Gutierrez, World World Supremacy BattleGrounds International 2023 finalist Vivacious, OPM indie-pop singer-songwriter Rhodessa, and Asia’s Trans Dual Diva Sephy Francisco.

The theme park also paid a heartfelt tribute to all devoted dads who bring magic into every home with the return of its Forever Enchanted Father’s Day specials on the third and fourth weekends of June. Beloved EK Storyverse paternal figures, Faerie King and Balasik, offered exclusive treats for fathers, such as body care and relaxation services situated at Eldar’s Theater.

While the fathers enjoyed the pampering sessions, they were serenaded by special performances from rising Viva Records artists Dana Pauline and Jehramae. EK’s very own P-pop girl group were also there to cap off the more than two-month run of its seasonal musical show, SMS Summer Blast, with a high-energy finale.

Meanwhile, the all-male vocal group, Kingsmen, also honored all dads through their weekend show at the Bandstand.

Other exciting Father’s Day activities were rolled out around the Park, including the Fun Kart’s Rev Up Speed Showdown, High Striker’s Dad’s Ultimate Strike, and a car display and test drive experience.

The magic continues this July as EK announces the return of its regular operating hours from 11AM to 8PM every Friday to Sunday until August 30. Starting September 1, the Park will be open Thursdays to Sundays, also from 11AM to 8PM.

Guests can secure passes for their next EK visit as early as today and enjoy a refreshing experience with Sip the Magic! Promo, in collaboration with Coca-Cola. Bundle includes one Regular Day Pass and a free magical drink featuring the newest drinks from Coca-cola, all for Php 1,400. This offer is available for walk-in purchase and through the EK Online Store until August 9 only.

The upcoming release pairs innovative club production with a powerful tribute to confidence, style, and the legacy of gyaru culture

Japanese pop artist, model, and TV personality YUKIPOYO has launched “Te-Te Gyaru” on global music streaming platforms.

A remix featuring emerging Filipino rapper Zae is also expected to be released soon.

Fast-rising Pinay rapper Zae

A cross-border collaboration

Filipino rapper Zae has quickly emerged as one of the country’s most promising hip-hop artists, attracting more than 580,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. Her collaboration with rap heavyweight Hev Abi on “SUBOMOTO REMIX” also received a nomination for Hip-Hop Song of the Year at the inaugural Filipino Music Awards in 2025.

It was such a fun experience attending the press conference and seeing YUKIPOYO in person. Meeting her and hearing about the global release of “Te-Te Gyaru” made the moment even more memorable, especially with the upcoming remix featuring Filipino rapper Zae. It’s exciting to witness a collaboration that brings together Japanese and Filipino artists, and I can’t wait to hear the remix when it drops.

Both artists are currently in Manila to shoot the music video for YUKIPOYO’s “Te-Te Gyaru (feat. Zae) [Tagalog ver.],” which will accompany the release of the remix once it comes out.

“Te-Te Gyaru” – out this Friday

“Te-Te Gyaru,” the original version of the track, is produced by XLII, a Tokyo-based producer who has previously worked with MINMI, Yayoi Daimon, Watson, Akko Gorilla, Reichi, and other heavy-hitters in the Japanese dance/urban/pop music scene.

Brimming with bizarre sonic textures, jittery beats, percussive grunts, and YUKIPOYO’s commanding rap performance, “Te-Te Gyaru” captures the artist at her most confident. On the upbeat bop, the half-Filipina, half-Japanese pop star asserts herself not only as a fashion-forward tastemaker but also as a multifaceted artist unafraid to challenge expectations through both style and sound.

Even before its official release, preview clips of the track had already amassed a combined 4 million views on TikTok and 1.52 million views on Instagram. Meanwhile, the latest visual garnered 92,000 likes on X shortly after it was posted, underscoring the growing excitement surrounding YUKIPOYO and the continued evolution of gal culture in Japan’s Reiwa era.

Offshore Music opens pre-orders from July 1 to August 1 for the highly anticipated repress, featuring audiophile mastering by Bernie Grundman and exclusive merchandise bundles

One of the most important albums in the history of Filipino music makes its highly anticipated comeback on vinyl.

Offshore Music, an independent record label founded by Ely Buendia, has officially opened pre-orders for the repress of the Eraserheads’ ULTRAELECTROMAGNETICPOP! The 25th Anniversary Edition on premium white vinyl. The pre-order will run until August 1, 2026, with exclusive merchandise bundles also available via this link: bit.ly/ultrawhitevinyl

The new pressing is produced by Diggers Factory in France and mastered by the legendary master engineer Bernie Grundman. This reissue is to ensure an audiophile-grade listening experience while preserving the timeless sound of OPM’s most celebrated debut album of all time. Unlike the original anniversary pressing, which was limited to 2,500 copies and quickly became a sought-after collector’s item, the repressed version aims to make the album more accessible to the fans who were unable to secure a copy the first time around.

According to Offshore Music General Manager Audry Dionisio, the decision was made because of the high commercial demand and a desire to reward longtime supporters of the Eraserheads.

“There were only 2,500 copies printed in the first run, and sadly because of the limited nature of the release, it prompted scalpers to resell it at ridiculous prices, which then alienated the true fans of the album,” Dionisio shares. “This time around, we wanted to give everybody a chance to own the album at a more affordable price. The timing couldn’t be more perfect since Offshore is celebrating its tenth-year anniversary. It’s our gift to the fans.”

More than three decades after its release, ULTRAELECTROMAGNETICPOP! continues to occupy a singular place in Pinoy pop culture. Its songs have become anthems of the everyday Filipino, with its rawness and enduring appeal resonating from one generation to another. To date, the album has sold more than 300,000 copies and was certified sextuple platinum (6x) by the Philippines Association of the Recording Industry (PARI).

For collectors still considering whether to place an order, Dionisio emphasizes that this edition represents far more than another repress or reprint. “This time it’s released on white vinyl. It’s more affordable, but more importantly, it’s an album you should own and pass on to your kids. Compared to the first release, this repressing is our gift to those who weren’t able to grab the first one.”

Shakira isn’t just the undisputed queen of summer with “Dai Dai.” The Colombian superstar also remains the most-streamed Latin artist in the world today, thanks to her latest track alongside African icon Burna Boy. The single is the most-streamed song on Spotify globally and tops the Billboard Global Chart for the week of June 30, a milestone that further cements Shakira’s standing as one of the most influential voices in global music.

Released on May 14, “Dai Dai” is the official anthem of the FIFA World Cup 2026™, supporting the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. The track is a powerful fusion of Latin and pop rhythms with the magnetism of Nigerian afrobeat.

The song speaks to perseverance, celebrates the world’s most beloved sport, and honors the unity that passion inspires, while paying tribute to some of the greatest figures in the jogo bonito, including Pelé, Diego Armando Maradona, Paolo Maldini, Romário, Cristiano Ronaldo, El Pibe Valderrama, Andrés Iniesta, David Beckham, Kaká, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, and Mohamed Salah.

Even before reaching #1 on Spotify’s Top Global Songs chart, “Dai Dai” had already made history. Its official music video [watch here] has surpassed 296 million views, while the song itself has topped 500 million global streams on digital platforms.

Shakira also recently surpassed 99 million monthly Spotify listeners, setting a new record for any Latin female artist in the platform’s history. “Dai Dai” currently sits on the charts in more than 56 countries.

Shakira is currently on the second U.S. leg of her hit tour, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, performing in a special World Cup edition. The U.S. run kicked off shortly after her highly anticipated return to Brazil, where she headlined a historic free concert on Copacabana Beach that drew more than 2 million fans.

Before heading to Spain for the European residency of Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, Shakira will co-headline the FIFA World Cup 2026™ Halftime Show on Sunday, July 19, alongside Madonna and BTS.

For the first time in FIFA World Cup™ history, the final will feature a halftime show bringing together world-class artists for a singular moment at the intersection of sport, culture, and purpose — in support of the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.

In Spain, Shakira will make history by introducing, on a major scale, a new model of international residency. The tour will take place at Shakira Stadium, a venue designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and located within Iberdrola Music, with a capacity for more than 50,000 fans per night. The venue will offer full visibility from every angle, state-of-the-art acoustics, and enhanced fan experiences.

Since its launch in February 2025, the Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour has broken records worldwide, becoming, in the same year, the highest-grossing tour across all genres. In January 2026, it also earned the Guinness World Record for the highest-grossing tour in history for a Spanish-language artist, further cementing Shakira’s place as one of the most influential live performers of her generation.
