Last February 2011, we saw the mash up performance of Gloc 9 and Tanya Markova, I will never forget the awesome team up of these two, because their performance and mixing their songs are like a big cross over in a comic book, it’s a fusion of different worlds just like mixing the rap of Gloc 9 and the catchy music and lyrics of Tanya Markova, the fusion of two songs came from Gloc 9’s “Bakit” and Tanya Markova’s “Picture Picture”, here we saw that the two songs are related and shares the same theme. Its great also to hear that the two artist love the idea of working together to form a new song and Tanya Markova revealed that they wish that Gloc 9 is a part of their band.

On the month of March 2011, on the 2nd leg of the Coca Cola Music Studio, we spotted another team up of Yeng Constantino and the band Pedicab for another mash up. At first I thought that the mash up will turn into a disco music using Yeng’s “Jeepney Love Story” and Pedicab’s “FX” ,but watching the entire interview and behind the scenes footage, they revealed that they too enjoyed working together to do a collab music content for everyone, the mix of two songs are perfect and the theme of each songs are the same, Jeepney and FX are the most popular form of land transportation here in our country and each songs features a story to tell, I already dubbed this song as “para!” Both artists are into rock, mixing electronica of Pedicab and a great rock spirited music by Yeng, this is one of my favorite mash up for Coca Cola Music Station and I hope they release this in mp3 format in the future.

Mid April 2011 is another episode week for Coca Cola Music Studio, girls are screaming whenever they hear the names of this artist, JayR and Sponge Cola, their collab might be the crowd favorite for college students because their music styles can influence more to the youth. Sponge Cola band revealed via their interview in the website that they love RnB music and hip hop that’s why they did a successful collaboration with JayR, even that it’s their first time to meet. The excitement of this collaborative project for music doubled their performance after that JayR mix his song “Design 4 Luv” with the rock music of Sponge Cola’s “Puso”. I also like this collaboration because the two have different music styles but they coped on to each other and tried the other side of the artists’  music genre. This is the real mash up for me. As they say,Rock music can fit to any kind of music genres.

For May 2011, we saw Solo RnB artist Kyla and General Luna band did another mash up for us and its like a version of a female rock and RnB music collaboration, I even compared this to the Sponge Cola and JayR mash up performance ,I caught this episode on TV when  they air it on Myx, I paused for awhile and listened of their music will blend, Kyla’s music for RnB is not the same like from JayR, but here in an all girl music team up, both artists pulled if off by mixing their songs “Mahal Kita” by Kyla and “Tila” by General Luna, as the band shared it via the interview, the band’s vocalist Nicole, said that the both songs shared the same theme and emotions. The performance is energetic and it is my first time to see General Luna on the TV and also here online performing with another artist, you can only see that here at the Coca Cola Music Studio.
