A first of its kind Music Festival,
the Ishin-Denshin International Festival Music Festival, featuring Filipino and
Japanese pop music, was successfully held at the MOA Concert Grounds recently with
the proceeds intended to go to the Manny Pacquiao Foundation for the
rehabilitation of the people of Marawi City.
The Ishin-Denshin, a Japanese idiom
meaning “what the mind thinks, the heart transmits,” was presented in Manila by
Monde Luce Productions, headed by Irizuki Kazuyoshi, and in coordination with
Miss Global Philippines Organization, led by its president and CEO Pauline
Sofia Laping. The Ishin-Denshinmusicfest was billed as a celebration of life,
with the objective to unite Filipino and Japanese music lovers and showcase the
vibrant character of the two different cultures.
“The relationship between our two
countries, historically, has been very dynamic. There’s always been a lot of similarities
and differences, but above all, there’s always been admiration and respect.What
better way to celebrate the bond between our countries’ cultures than with the
biggest music festival this side of the Pacific,” Kazuyoshi said.
Among the performers were Bamboo, Ely Buendia, Apl de Ap,
Itchyworms, Roksteddy, Absolute Play, BarbiAlmabis, Beni Beverly, Maria Gow
together with DJ Ace Ramos, DJ Hello Kitty, DJ Daiki and DJ Shoyd who was
excited to share the stage with some of the big names in the pop scene. Music
fans of all ages got the best from all the performers as they explored new and
exciting sounds that had never been heard before. Words and Photos by Eton
