6cyclemind Returns with New Rock Anthem “Langit”
Filipino pop-rock outfit 6cylemind makes
a triumphant return to form with the release of “Langit,” the first single off their
upcoming seventh studio album under Sony Music Philippines.
Characterized by its soaring
introspection, “Langit” is a song about chasing one’s dreams, making it happen,
and allowing yourself to fail and persevere in order to achieve your goals in
life. As lead vocalist Tutti Caringal puts it, “It won’t always be a smooth
ride. There will be bumps on the road, but what matters is whenever you fall
you get back up and soldier on.”
The unapologetically brash anthem was
written by rhythm guitarist Rye Sarmiento and Michael Lao, who initially made
the demo for every dreamer out there to keep pushing and never give up on their
dreams.
With minimum health and safety protocols
taken into account, the band went through several jamming sessions prior to
hitting the studio to record their respective parts. Despite the restriction
imposed during the peak of the pandemic period, 6cyclemind carried on with
their brand of professionalism and work ethic, producing one of their finest
singles to date.
“I feel like we’ve surpassed our
expectations in terms of sound and feel,” Rye said. “We’re trying to deliver a
positive and empowering anthem that has that epic sound to it. Special shout
out to our sound engineers, Oliver Romblon and Jam Bumanlag, whom we get to
work for the first time. We’re grateful of how everything turned out.”
Still on the top of their game 20 years
after the launch of their career-defining debut, 6cyclemind loves a good
challenge, and on “Langit,” they’re still as persistent as ever, and are more risk
takers when it comes to the creative aspects of the recording.
“What makes the single a cut above the
rest is that the recording process challenged everyone in the band to give his
best with limited physical and moral support from other members,” bassist and
backing vocalist Roberto "Bob" Cañamo shares. “The song being
technically self-produced by the band, was recorded with a little more personal
touch by each member. Everyone was so
involved during the post production and was so excited to hear and release the
final cut of our latest song, Langit.”
6cyclemind’s “Langit” is out now on all digital
music platforms via Sony Music Philippines.
