DJ Gingee's tracks are FPAC's Official Soundtrack for Tuloy Po Kayo. Her artistry was developed through the many years of her attending FPAC, which is why her music is a testament to the work that our organization does to hone talents such as Gingee. Here she shares her artistic statement's to this year's official Festival sound. Keep Moving I made this track during quarantine as a reminder and inspiration to myself and anyone else who needed it to keep moving physically, creatively, and spiritually. It blends a pulsing house beat, sounds of kulintang, and live percussion with poetic rap. The accompanying music video was made in collaboration with visual artist Sick Delicious.
PMA, which stands for Pilipino Martial Arts, is a track I created using the sounds of various traditional Filipino instruments such as kubing (mouth harp), kulintang and agong gongs, a bamboo slapper, and bamboo king flute, mixed with global dance rhythms. Some of the sounds come from my recording sessions wtih Kalumon Performance Ensemble from Davao, Mindanao. I was inspired to make the track for a collaboration with Pamana Kali, Filipino martial arts group based in Torrance, CA who performed martial arts and dance to the track.
