Hip hopping in the House

 CIRCUIT TRAINING - JR Isaac -
A pilgrim to party mecca Boracay is what the congregation of fun-loving people embark on every summer. Part of these sacred days under the sun are rituals one must undertake, such as a dialogue with your favorite bartender on the latest fruit shake, or a bonding session with the trusted masseurs under the palm trees. Apart from the daytime activities are nocturnal responsibilities to find out which gathering is hip and happening. This Easter, Studio 23 made an excellent offering by organizing the 2004 Beach House sunset party at Aria’s beach front. Studio 23 decorated Aria’s shore line with life-size flowers, throw pillows and banigs perfect to watch the explosion color from Boracay’s famous sunset. And as night fell Urban Myx gathered all hip hop and R&B faithfuls for 2004 Beach Ball at Cocomangas. It was an impressive gathering of DJ Apollo, the grandfather of turntablism, and DJ Heavy Boogie from Australia, both who are DMC Champions.
Circuit Training Event Pick
Tonight Globe Platinum presents Andrea Bocelli Live in Manila. Witness an unforgettable voice at an unforgettable experience. Finally, the much-awaited concert of the year made possible by Globe Platinum will enchant their exclusive privileged members to a one-night enchanting concert from Andrea Bocelli. I personally can’t wait to listen to arias from my favorite operas. I suggest this concert as your Mother’s Day gift, so go watch it with her – perfect for your pogi points! The show is at Araneta Coliseum and starts at 8 p.m. Give at least 45 minutes drive time if you will be coming from Makati, traffic is unpredictable especially since it’s pay day Friday.

DJ JOJO FLORES

Did you have fun spinning at sunset?


Definitely! It was all new to me. It was my first experience spinning on the beach at sunset and playing for a crowd which was all Filipino, I don’t get that in North America.

How will you remember the Beach House 2004?


This is the first time I’ve experienced a DJ capture the true afternoon beach party vibe. The party was happening. The music was sweet. The feel was nice and easy. It was the perfect Boracay beach party!

MARS MIRANDA

How did the DJS of MYX Beach Ball express themselves at Cocomangas?


People who know hip hop know that DJ Apollo is one of the best hip hop DJs in the world, and it was proven at Cocomangas since everyone enjoyed the music he played. As for DJ Kristian, he is one of Australia’s fastest rising stars. His style and technique brings out the best in the music. Together the two DJs made the party fantastic. It’s something that you don’t see every week when you’re out. The mix of soul funk disco and hiphop made the energy high until dawn.

BENJO MARQUEZ

In one word, how would you describe the energy at Studio 23’s Beach House 2004?


Spectacular! I haven’t been to a really good party since I got back from the States that catches the underground vibe of Canada, New York and San Francisco, and Studio 23 has accomplished this.

RICH HERRERA

What song made you take off your shirt at the MYX Beach Ball 2004?


When DJ Apollo played Yeah by Usher

KARA TOLENTINO

Who was with you at Studio 23’s Beach House 2004?


The yummy Dino Dizon!

DINO DIZON

What did you drink at the Beach House 2004 sunset party?

I was having a blast with my vodka-spiked ice candy, since it was given out for free all afternoon!

REIA DE GUZMAN

What makes Beach House 2004 different from all the other events in Boracay this summer?


It was the back-to-basics concept plus the essentials of Boracay which are sun, sand, sea, good music and great company. Anything more than that, the vigor will fade.

TRACY PAMINTUAN

As one of the ABS-CBN Events team, what gets you excited in organizing a party?


We continually think of something new to give our guests, not just a new DJ or new venue, but a whole new theme and feel. We make it a point to always be different from everyone else.



DJ KRISTIAN HERNANDEZ

What comes to mind when you remember the MYX Beach Ball 2004?

The smiles on people’s faces, and the green mango shakes!
