If you’re a fan of OPM, you’ll want to check out M-FLIX: 2021 Da Pinoy Pandemic Palabas, a free online musical performed by excellent Filipino musical artists.
The show will consist of 12 original songs and a medley of all 12 songs, with the songs connected by animated shorts in between.
The performers include Ogie Alcasid, Joanna Ampil, Nicole Asensio, Joey Ayala, Mark Bautista, Bukas Palad Choir, Bituin Escalante, Klarisse de Guzman, Rony Fortich, The Itchyworms, Davey Langit, Jed Madela, Morisette, Tim Pavino, Pinopela, The Company, Basil Valdez, and Raki Vega.
The songwriters for the show are Maestro Ryan Cayabyab, Louie Ocampo, Ogie Alcasid, Joey Ayala, Davey Langit, Moy Ortiz, Edith Gallardo, Krina Cayabyab Viñas, Jude Gitamondoc, and Fr. Manoling Francisco. The entr’acte is composed by Rony Fortich. Some of the renowned composers collaborated with creative lyricists, such as Noel Ferrer, Floy Quintos, Jose Javier Reyes, and Therese Marie Villarante.
Each original song is hooked on the following emotional “pillars”: gulat, takot, pagka-gipit, malikhaing pagtugon, pangamba, pagtuklas, malasakit, pananagutan, pag-alala, pasasalamat, pagbangon, at pagmumuni. Each recorded performance was edited to give rise to unique video formats, blended to produce a seamless musical offering by Stephen Viñas. The animations, created by Aidon Panlaqui, serve to introduce and depict the theme of each song that follows it.
M-FLIX 2021 Da Pinoy Pandemic Palabas will be released in two acts. Act 1 will premiere on November 6, 2021, and Act 2 will be on November 13. Both acts will premiere at 7PM, on the MIND S-COOL YouTube channel.
