| |
| PEDICAB is a band composed of Mike Dizon on drums, Raimund Marasigan on |
| synths and vocals, Jason Caballa on guitar and vocals, Diego Mapa on |
| lead vocals, and acclaimed music video director RA Rivera on visuals and |
| multimedia. The band was formed in August 2004 out of each band member's |
| desire to play catchy danceable punk rock, (humorously referred by the |
| band as "dunk music," dance-punk), inspired by the likes of the Strokes, |
| Gang of Four, and Franz Ferdinand. |
| |
| The band's use of vintage analog synthesizers instead of the traditional |
| bass guitar, as well as Diego's quirky vocal style and eclectic lyrics, |
| has given Pedicab a unique sound, redolent of '80s synth-pop with a |
| garage rock flavor. While the band's seasoned lineup may be reason |
| enough to attract curious listeners, Pedicab has managed to build a |
| loyal following with their infectious original tunes and energetic live |
| performances. RA's visuals give Pedicab's live shows a distinctive |
| performance-art edge. |
| |
| Pedicab's first album, dubbed "Tugish Takish" (the sound of the |
| two-count drumbeat when imitated by human vocals) boasts of impressively |
| slick production, as evidenced by the hook-laden first single "Dizzy |
| Boy", and arrangements employing a minimal-as-maximal approach, leaving |
| a lot of space to dance to. More impressive is the way the band adds |
| that Pinoy rock flavor as evidenced by the nifty guitar lines and |
| lyrical hooks, please direct your attention to tracks such as "Dito Tayo |
| sa Dilim", "Ang Kailangan," "Bukas", "Konti na Lang" and the |
| under-two-minute finale "Sagot Kita." |
| |
| All in all, "Tugish Takish" is ten tracks crammed into 30 minutes of |
| anthems that live up to the band's name. Madaling sakyan, indeed. Dunk |
| music to dance to. |
| |

| that came with the ablum. |
