A MUSICIANS RETIREMENT

    Many musicians today who work the bands for hire markets tend to be aware of their current predicament but we at Talents For Asia wonder if they are aware of their future predicaments. How will they earn when they can’t be sold/promoted anymore? Will they have enough savings or a pension fund to fall back on? Do they have insurance for health issues? These are all very valid and real questions that have plagued us at Talents For Asia. Why?. Because from what we have seen, very few musicians from the band for hire market make it to the ranks of international celebrities, some even go back to their homes broken in many ways and live a life of poverty. Some however do have the knowledge to pre-arrange their retirement and can live a very comfortable life. 


    Talents For Asia’s concern is for those who don’t have the knowledge to set up their own retirement situation and thus fall into a world of pain and suffering. We are of the opinion that musicians should take responsibility for their own financial future as they don’t have a cozy pension fund to fall back on and if you are a musician who has zero or next to no knowledge in managing your finances to create a secure future then we suggest you walk into a financial institution, like a bank of international standing and seek their advice on how you can start a retirement fund via monthly contributions. 



    Now, in Malaysia we have the EPF (Employee’s Provident Fund) where in you contribute on a monthly basis and then you can withdraw at age 50 and 55. In Singapore they have the CPF and in Philippines, you have options like S S S (Social Security) or PAG IBIG. Now these are the government based platforms that are available to you but if you are not comfortable in contributing to these various platforms, then walk into an International bank like HSBC or CITIBANK and try to speak to one of the many consultants they have and explain that you are a musician and you are looking to set up a retirement fund, they have various options they can recommend you to invest in via a monthly contribution. Talents For Asia would advice that you look at a big International bank so that your deposits are insured and risk is kept to a minimum. 


    Another important much neglected factor is medical and basic healthcare, based on your capacity to earn an income, see a reputable insurance company also of international standing and get a policy that covers you till old age with full benefits from hospitalization to surgery even for major illnesses, Why? Because musicians are exposed to what is a very unhealthy lifestyle and the environment you work in is often polluted and you never know what will emerge out of the dark in a few years down the road. Having a fat savings account is also nice, but once you withdraw, it’s spent and you can’t get it back, thus we would advise you to have two to three other platforms where you can really secure your self. 


    Most musicians will say; we don’t Earn Much”. If you can set aside 250 USD a month from the age of 25 then by the time your fifty, you should have a decent platform to retire on. For those of you who are older, try to increase your monthly savings or investment contributions to about 500 USD a month, so you can catch up where you have missed out on. If you’re not sure or if you feel that you lack knowledge and know how on setting up a retirement platform, don’t worry!… Just walk into a bank and they have many consultants who can advise you accordingly, look at low risk situations that are long term investments based on age which can yield profits which will fruit when you’re ready to retire. 


    This is just so that you are independent of any family when it comes to your old age, but if your making millions, then you can save millions for a rainy day, but if your in a situation where your living month to month, then its really advisable for you to walk into a bank and get your self sorted out. You can also look at a business option to invest into that will help grow your money, but business is a gamble and highly risky, so even if you do decide to go into business, its best to have a fall back or what we call a safety net. Gone are the days where you have two or three children and pawn your old age on them. Times are changing an as the world evolves so will your child’s way of thinking and thus it would be wrong to pawn off your old age on them. As a musician, the work you do is not easy and the hardship you go through having to leave your homes and families is really not something every one can do, but that’s the road you walk thus Talents For Asia is of the position that this advice is really well overdue as some musicians start out very young and from their first months salary they are caught up in a world of expensive mobile phones, laptops and many other worldly possessions but very little thought is put into what happens when they can’t earn anymore. They are also musicians who send their entire salary home to their families and that is something very commendable but there must be an amount that is withheld and placed into a retirement savings platform, be it government driven or private. 


    Don’t just think of the next thirty days but think of the next thirty years.. Only You Can Determine your own financial wellbeing,, Be Smart, Start Planning For The Tomorrow’s Today…

Harry Potter films get all-night screening at BFI Imax


    Is It Really Over?, Harry Potter Comes To A Close In Its Last Installment. We At Talents For Asia Hope That This Ending Is Really Just Propaganda And Not Really The End. Why? Because From When Harry Potter Started And As The Characters Them Self's Evolved And Matured So Did Its  Audiences, And In Many ways, Harry Potter Has Actually Carried Tremendous Moral Values Which Is Much Needed In Todays Border-less Informations Technological Age, Where Ones Morals Are Continuously Tested With The Presence Of Unlimited Good And Bad Information. The Various Harry Potter Films Also Teach The Value And The In's And Out's Of Friendship. Which Talents For Asia Can Support.
    Thus In Its Grandeur And Magical make Believe World, Harry Potter Has Actually Done Justice. We Hope That Its Not The End And Thus If It Is, Then A 24 Hour Screening As In The Article Below Is Warranted And A Much Deserved And Fitting Tribute As A Bow Out Finale. 
    London's BFI Imax is to hold all-night screenings of the Harry Potter series to mark the release of the final instalment.

THE FILIPINO MUSICIANS OFFLOAD DELIMA

    In The Philippines, The Government Years Ago Had Instilled An Un – Spoken Re-Stricted Travel Block On All Filipino’s. If You Don’t Have POEA, Or IF Your Not A Celebrity, Politician Or Look Rich Enough, To Travel Outside Of The Philippines Is Not Possible For Average Filipino’s. This Is The Reality Of The Filipino People. They Are Prisoners In Their Own Country And Where There Are Not Enough Jobs, Hence Poverty Is Going To Be An Everlasting Problem. 



    For Musicians This Hits Close To Home. Talents For Asia Has Just Learned Last Night Of Four (4) Filipino Musicians Who Were Off Loaded From A Flight Bound For Dubai. The Musicians End Destination Was Not Dubai But A Country Which Has No Philippines Embassy And They Were On Their Way For An Audition. As Such Before Their Departure They Had Called The POEA Office For Advice And POEA Had Said To Apply For Visa At The Nearest Embassy Of The Country You Are Going For Audition In, And Ask The Potential Employer For A Letter Of Invitation. 



    All this Was Done And When they Were Stopped By Officers Of The Philippines Immigration before Walking On The Plane, Mind You They Cleared Philippines Immigration But Were Then Stopped And Ask To Offload, Upon Questioning The Officer For the Reason Of The Offload The Officer Kept Silent, Then Band Then Asked The Officer, How Do you Apply POEA When The Country They Are Going To Has NO PHILIPPINES EMBASSY, And They Are Only Going For An Audition, Not Employment, The Officer Then Still Kept Silent And Said OFFLOAD. 




    As Such, This Begs The Question, How Does POEA Or The Philippines Government Classify Auditions? 2) How Come The Philippines Immigration Officer Questioned Why A Visa For The Country The Band Was Going To Was Issued From Another Country; When They Should Know That The Country Of Travel To Has No Embassy In The Philippines.? After The Musicians Had Informed The Officer That There Was No Embassy Of The Philippines In That Particular Country And That That Country They Were Going To Had No Embassy In Philippines They Were Still OFFLOADED. 



    Is This Not A Form Of FORCED IMPRISONMENT By Denying People Their Rights To Leave The Country? Now If You Do The Math, What Would Be The Employers Cost Should He Have To Travel To The Nearest Country To Him Just To Apply For POEA For Four (4) People To Audition? And Then Travel Again To Facilitate POEA For Employment. Now In The Case Where They Have Offloaded, Who Pays For The Losses Of The Tickets And Money Spent? 



    If The Government Of The Philippines Wants To Close Its Doors Under The Pretext Of Protecting Its People, then It Should Also Have Funds to Re-Pay All Cost In Cases Like This Where Philippines Immigration Officers Seem To Lack Common Sense. It’s a Sad Day To Hear All This, When The Philippines Is So Dependent On The OFW Remittance. Talents For Asia Is Not Attacking Anyone But Is Trying To Show The Lack Of Logic, Human Decency And Human Rights Violation In A Law That Can Only Be Classified As Pre- Historic. 



    We Believe That It Is Time For Change In A System That Hinders The Filipino Musician And People For Seeking A Better Life As The POEA Process Is Only Beneficial to The Philippines Government And Not The Employer Or People. It Would Be Better To Launch A Special POEA Identification Card That Has A Microchip And It Can Function As Digital Permit Card Upon Departure Of Filipino’s Having This Valid For Only 12 Months And Having It Equipped With Insurance And All Information Needed Will Ease And Resolve Issues Like We Have Mentioned Above, Because Now The Potential Employer Has A Clear Cut Case For Legal Action Not Only Against The Officer Who Offloaded WITHOUT DUE JUSTIFICATION But Also Against The Philippines Immigration For Cost As Now Tickets Are Wasted. If You Launch A POEA Card, It Would Promote Legal Employment As All you Have To Do Is Simplify The Card Application Process By Having Filipino’s Apply For It In Person. This Also Stems Out The Problems With Fixers, It Instantly Provides For Data Collection On OFW’s And It Makes The Whole Employment Process Easier For Foreign Companies Which Will Then Further Generate Greater Employment Due to A Process That Is Fair To All. 



    It Really Amazes And At The Same Time Ticks Talents For Asia Off Because The Musicians As Mentioned In Yesterday's Night’s Incident Were Really Not At Fault, And No Act Of Corruption Was Attempted By The Musicians They Were Leaving On The Merit Of Their LEGAL Documentation. Talents For Asia Can Now Understand Why So Many Filipino’s Who Leave The Philippines, Don’t Want To Go Home Again. Because Its Really Like A Prison Sentence, You Can’t Leave At Your Own Free Will, Unlike Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, And Or Even Malaysia. As We At Talents For Asia Start To Look At This Particular Incident, We Are Starting To Understand Why So Many Filipino Musicians Are So Tired And Sick Of Their Own Country And Rather live Overseas For As Long As They Can, Simply Because When They Get Home, Its Just Too Much Hassle For Them to Go Out Again. 



    So Really Is Talents For Asia The Fool For Advocating At The Top Of Our Lungs, The POEA Law?; Which Now Looks To Talents For Asia As A Law That Only Benefits A Few And Enshrines The Majority In Poverty? We Are Now At The Cross Roads Of Reality And What Do We Do,? Talents For Asia Promotes Direct Employment As We Are Only A Promotions Platform, We Are Not An Agency. Yet We Can Feel The Anger And Frustration Of The Filipino Musicians And We Wonder If Ever The New President Will Ever Open The Gates At The Airports And Allow His People To Be Free Or Will He Continue To Enslave his People In A Situation Which Only Benefits The Minority And Not The Majority? 



    Again, We Are Stressing That We Are Not Attacking But We Are Just Airing Our Queries And Thoughts, And We At Talents For Asia Are Wondering What Is The Solution? And Who Will Lead The Call For The Freedom Of Filipino Musicians? And The Filipino People to Travel Internationally Without Being Made To Answer Questions That Don’t Concern Any Philippines Immigration Officer Or Even The Government As The End Of It All Is The Remittance Still Comes Back Anyway, Does It not? 



    This Is Really A Discussion Worth Having Just To Tap Ideas That Can Lead To A Winning Situation For Both Sides Of The Divide. Talents For Asia Apologies If We Have Offended Anyone As Its Only Our Intention To Ask The Questions That Really Begs To Be Asked And Also To Create Room For Intelligent Discussions To Find Solutions That Can Really Help Ease The Burden Of The People. It Is Sad When You Have To Miss An Opportunity Because The People In Power Lack Commonsense And A Train Of Thought To Trust Legal Documentation And Also It Is Sad That They Lack Knowledge In Which Countries Have Embassies In Philippines



    Maybe Its time Filipino Musicians Bind Together And Come Up With A Proposal That They Can Submit To Their Respective Senators And President For More Liberation At The Airport Gates For Them. We Hope This Article Spurs Creative Thinking Which Will Lead To The Generation Of Ideas Which Can Open The Gates And Free The Musicians. Talents For Asia Understands The Some Protection Is Needed, But That Can Be Done Via In A Different Manner That Does Not Cost People Jobs And Potential Employers Financial Loss. Times Have Changed And We Sincerely Feel That The Locks At The Airport Gates Should Be Removed And Other Documented Procedures Should Be Put Into Place Especially For Countries That Have No Philippines Embassies And Have No Diplomatic Missions In The Philippines. 



    Let Us Hope That This Article Will Spur Creative, And Intelligent As Well As Un – Selfish Results, So That The Majority Will Benefit, After All, Philippines Is Suppose To Be A Democratic Country, Thus Why Not Have Democratic Laws . As They Say; Out With The Old And In With The New… 

    We Leave It To You The Reader To Draw your Own Conclusion But We Clearly State Our Position As Not Attacking With No Intention To Offend, Once Again, Talents For Asia Is Only Asking The Questions That Begged To Be Asked After We Heard Of  Last Night’s Incident, That Really Should Not Have Happened Due To The Lack Of Knowledge By The Philippines Immigration Officer That Ordered The Off Load Of The Four Musicians. One Mans Fault Is Not The Fault Of the Entire Company, But It Questions The Style In Which The Said Company Is Managed.

    Should This Article Offend Any Person And Or Entity, We At Talents For Asia Thus Apologies In Advance. As This Article Is For The SOLE Purpose Of Exposing What Went Wrong, And Who Is To be Held Responsible And What Type Of Solutions Can Be Put In Place To Stop This From Happening Again. There Are To Many Man Made laws That Are Archaic And Should Be Revised With Freedom To All Placed In Mind.Thus We End This We A An  Apology To Those Who Feel Offended And We Hope This Serves As A Lesson To Those Involved To Go And Expand Their Knowledge Which Will Enable Them To Do Their Jobs Better.

WHATS HAPPEN TO MUSIC TODAY?

    WHATS HAPPEN TO MUSIC TODAY?

    In many of our articles, we have used the word evolution; Evolution in music has been rather drastic, what with the retirement of Phil Collins and the birth of artiste like Justin Bieber taking the Planet by storm. Gone are the days wherein you can here the soul of the drum beat in music played by musicians and recorded live. The Age of Digital Music has been born and it will not go away, Digital Music in its self is like a planet on its own evolving as technology becomes more and more advanced.

    Talents For Asia wonders if there will ever re-vive the old school ways of recording music with a room full of instruments and not digital machines. Some how the human element in some music is really missing and there is no feel in it, its like trying to have a coke from and empty coke can. Maybe Talents For Asia is just slow in the catch up race in technology but the evolution in music is not only in technology but also in the lyrics.

    Lyrics now days have become dull in Talents For Asia’s opinion, many of the words are repeated as if to resemble stuttering and repeative  not in a smart way but a rather lazy way as if to say that effort is not warranted. Talents For Asia feels that the music that has been released in the past year can do with a make-over, re-think and a lot of reproduction to make it sensible. It’s sad when you see something you love so much go down in such a bad way. Music is something that can heal wounds of hearts, feeds the hungry soul and also breaks all racial, religious and cultural borders.

    Somehow, Musicians today fail to see how powerful the rhythm of a single song can change so the way the world looks at each other. Look back in time when Pink Floyd came out with The Wall and Live Aid was born, or when Michael Jackson dropped We Are The World. Music back then stood for something and it moved people in ways that helped evolve them in to better situations. Lyrics meant something then; Talents For Asia believes that there is always a song for each and very situation in life simply because music is the food of your soul and the gateway to understanding the individual performers heart mind and direction. Some how Talents For Asia is searching for that same feeling in today’s music but it seems to be lost.

    Why does everything sound the same? This is really disturbing, has the industry that we so love lost its creativity? A good example is the song Fields Of Gold By Sting, now look at the Maxi Priest version, it’s the same but different in many ways. Yet it still has tremendous meaning and carries the same soothing, heartwarming feeling as the Sting Version. That creativity at work, in totality without question.

    Talents For Asia feels its time for the industry to once again raise the quality and the entire production process from composing to production, If you caught the Jimmy Fallon Show you would understand when they did a remake of the Rebecca Black Friday Song and it was so much better then Rebecca Black's version of Friday and  he may have even made it sound trendy. Talents For Asia just simply believes that creative effort is lacking in the new tunes being released amongst the newer artiste.

    Talents For Asia hopes this changes for the betterment of not only the industry but also just so that the people who fork out their hard earned dollars to buy your music will be given a real treat rather then and effortless 2 hour job..

WHY MORNINGS WITH R FUNK & LIL' G?




    Talents For Asia feels that the original article posted about the tiltle subject, just missed a few more things we would like to say about Mornings With R  Funk & Lil’ G. So in paying tribute to what we at Talents For Asia believe to be the crème de la crème of the radio air waves read on and get with Mornings With R Funk & lil’ G…..


    We have heard many radio Dj’s and many of them on air are not what they appear to be off air, some are arrogant and think themselves to be of celebrity status simply because of the recognition they get in public, and some Dj’s  just try to hard to live out their radio persona. The two radio Dj’s  who helm Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G offer a reality that surpasses all boundaries of show business as a whole.

    The sincerity in their tone, and energy which really makes the show what it is, offers a freshness and honesty that has not been visible in radio entertainment for a very long time. Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G has no airs, its simply classy radio with aim to brighten up ones morning. There is no sense of arrogance in their show at all, they are not self promotional and don’t behave like super stars. Talents For Asia believes that with Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G, what you hear and what you see on live stream is what you will get when you meet them in person,

    Here are tow perfect examples of real humanity at work, they face the public everyday and what ever their problems are, and they leave it at the door when on air. During the course of the program, you even get an insight into their personality. For example, we all know now that they love to eat, Being a radio Dj is far from easy, its hard work simply because of the hours and constantly keeping your emotions in check, hence the statement about leaving their problems at the door. Some radio Dj’s use the airwaves to release their anger or frustration and at times, listeners are subjected to rude or nasty broadcasting. But at Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G, your made to feel as light as a feather, they actually try to paint a constant smile on your face and they don’t act. The entire show is as real as human life is.

    I guess what we are trying to say is that here are two real people who are not acting or trying to be something they are not, they are them self’s on air and that is maybe the secret to the success and likeability of this fantastic radio show, it’s the personalities who host it. Talents For Asia wants to make it known, simply  because its really honest to goodness wholesome entertainment and what more, it showcases and enforces what we have been advocating at the top of our lungs about the value in Talent from the Philippines.

    We really hope to see Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G go Asia wide and be further recognized by the entertainment industry Asia wide. You have to take the time to watch them on livestream, listen to them and not just hear them, but really pay attention and I promise all of you that it will be the best investment of time you have made since getting a job. We at Talents For Asia hope that the community of humanity in Asia will rise to the call to tune into Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G, Every Monday – Saturday, 6am to 11 am for now…
    Talents For Asia ends its feature on Mornings With R Funk & Lil’G with this; If you want honesty in radio, if you want a show that will make you help you get through that bad day, if you want to meet to extraordinary people who are honest, credible, real, charming, hysterically funny at times yet very compassionate, kind and good hearted, and finally if you want to listen to an educated radio show with a brilliant command of the English language, the you only have one choice Asia, its Mornings With R Funk & Lil’ G, Asia stand and give applause to what is Asia’s best and should be top billing morning radio show.

    Its not about Talents For Asia, its about paying tribute to those whom we take for granted on a daily basis, its because of them that we can smile, its because of them that we remember certain moments in our life, and its because of them we have a great start to mornings that turn into fantastic days. Thank you R Funk & Lil’ G for being you and for a fantastic morning show. We support you and will  always endorse all your works and efforts….

    This writer is humbled by Mornings With R Funk & Lil'G

MORNINGS WITH R FUNK & LIL’ G



     Lil' G & R Funk (Asia's Best Radio Personalities)

    Cebu is an island in the Philippines which has a treasure like no other Asian Island, you may think the writer is crazy,! but take a minute to read on and find out why Cebu Has The Best morning radio show in all of Asia.

Now here is the thing, Mornings With R Funk & Lil’ G are not irritating and the Dj’s don’t talk to much and the advertising runs are not to long, its really the perfect mix of everything. I am sure everyone knows how some radio shows can be such a pain on the ears, but here’s the thing. Mornings With R Funk & Lil’ G are actually somewhat orgasmic to the ear.

    The other thing about Mornings With R Funk & Lil’ G that we at Talents For Asia really respect is, that unlike other radio dj’s who talk at you with arrogance in their tone, Mornings With R Funk & Lil’ G address their listeners with great respect and take the time to interact on a personal level with their listeners, This writer has been in the entertainment business for almost 18 years, and I have never heard such a premier class of radio Dj’s broadcasting such quality in terms of presentation and communications between listener and Dj.

    It also helps that the radio dj’s are both super hot as you can see from their pictures, but don’t just take my word for it, Log on – http://www.livestream.com/homecebu have a listen, have a laugh, but most of all I promise you will be back for more and while your listening, you would wish that the morning never becomes noon.

    In today’s world, the internet plays a important part in business as well as in one’s daily life. Talents For Asia being a service provider which is completely internet based understands the various issues that still plague internet based businesses. The question that plays on every clients mind is, can I trust this provider?, how do I know that what they are promoting is the real thing?. These are general yet extremely important thoughts that go through every clients mind, especially when it comes to paying deposits and also paying for a service where in the legalities are the first step of the purchase process before the client actually gets to see the band for hire in their respective entertainment venues.

    Some internet based business like Talents For Asia which make all payables directly to the owners personal names, in doing this at times it raises various issues on trust, clients can breath easy if they can pay to a company because they feel its safer as well as provides a more legal avenue for recourse if there is a dispute in the future.

UNDERSTANDING FILIPINO BANDS FOR HIRE


    Talents For Asia has reached a stage where it feels that the entertainment market place just does not get what is happening in the Philippines and is rather prejudice towards filipino bands for hire, Why you may ask are we making such a statement?. This comes from the various requests we have for filipino bands for hire but with salaries of even 500 USD being offered, This we believe is beyond insulting but goes against general human decency.

    After doing some research about cost of living in the Philippines and speaking to various filipino bands for hire, we would like to help the entertainment market place understand better why a 800 USD is so important to filipino bands for hire. A sack of rice in the Philippines cost about 1,700 Peso = 40 USD, then you have to pay for cooking oil, and some vegetables, and chicken or meat, generally it cost about 150 USD per 15 days for 2 adults and 1 child to eat. That cost DOES NOT include daily transport for children to go to school plus monies for child care in general.

    The average filipino bands for hire goes overseas to work for one simple reason, so that their FAMILIES can live better, can afford to eat 3 square meals a day an can afford to educate their children, Now the Philippines has no mandatory health care support for its people, basically if your poor you will die eventually, cause everything in the Philippines is based on the prices of the International market. So the average filipino bands for hire if not earning at least 850 - 1.000 USD upwards will find it rather hard to provide for their families, let alone take care of their children.

    Talents For Asia understands that today’s cost of employing filipino bands for hire is rather high due to the strict laws of the Philippines which is advocating POEA. The government of the Philippines has made it hard for filipino’s to leave the country in general and this is also understandable as it cost the country money to bring home filipino’s who get into trouble overseas and it’s a cost the country has to struggle with after so many years of corruption emptying out its national coffers.

    Talents For Asia believes that understanding the dilemma of filipino bands for hire from the cost of living to the quality of life and the reach for education which is also expensive is the only way we can explain to the many booking clients on why it is needed to follow the laws of the Philippines, pay the dues for POEA and pay the filipino bands for hire at least 850 - 1,000 USD upwards so that they may do what they are going to your respective country to work for.

    Talents For Asia is very sure that as a manager of a bar and or a club or as a General Manager of a hotel, you would NOT want to be seen as not only a miser, but some one who has NO HUMAN COMPASSION. We at ASIA’S PREMIER WEB-BASED LIVE MUSIC PROVIDER kindly request you to please, stop looking down on filipino bands for hire and start doing what is needed, pay them well and they will work ten times harder to help you bring in business to your entertainment establishments.


    We at Talents For Asia are not attacking anyone and we do not wish to offend any one, but we are kindly requesting for clients who are booking filipino bands for hire to please do the right thing and attain them legally and with decent wages, also in this day and age, providing  filipino bands for hire with free internet for them to upgrade their repertoire or even for them to chat with their families, is really a must. It is our sincerest hope that employers or potential employers become more compassionate and responsible towards filipino bands for hire.

PHIL COLLINS RETIRES


    Talents For Asia in what is a very sad day bids farewell to the God of Drummers and a tremendous artiste / musicians and humanitarian. Thank you Phil Collins for the many wonderful years of super fantastic music, The  mega exciting and rocking concerts you have staged and most of all Thank you for just being you….

    From The Death of the King of Pop, to the retirement of the Legendary Phil Collins is a sign the times, they are a changing. Musical Royalty is changing, for some the curtains are closing for good and for some they have chosen to embark on a new journey. Talents For Asia, dreads the day when U2 will retire, that would be dooms day in the music world.

    But its really just evolution of life, everything has to evolve. The young become old and the old, well let just say they retire. Music has evolved from the days of Madonna to the now days of Lady Gaga, yet somehow, the revival of certain songs every now and then seems to not have changed all that much. This brings about the notion that they are certain things that may only evolve partially.

    Music is like air; it’s always a need and will always be a big part of our lives no matter how you look at it. From classical, to rock, or even pop to jazz, the scope and the range of the various types of music that reaches us is really tremendous, Creativity is not lacking but it has evolved. Talents For Asia is all for growth, but like any other person who is apart of what is; the most amazing industry in to work, Talents For Asia is sad to see the greats retire. We all had a bit of Phil Collins in our lives at some point; it’s like watching a good friend move away.

    Talents For Asia wishes Phil Collins all the best in life, we hope you have a life filled with so much love and good music as you have filled our lives with the same. Gob Bless You Always and Forever….

Bands For Hire – Raise The Bar


    In what seems to be an evolution sweeping civil society, from Tunisia, Egypt and in some areas in the Middle East, Human society is now demanding greater freedoms, transparency and accountability in governments all across the globe, Society in general has become accustomed to a higher standard of living and as such wants a high standard in governance which is more globalize and less prejudiced. This are the same bunch of people who visit the various entertainment venues seeking to be entertained.

    Entertainment is also evolving as the demands for various types of entertainers are growing and various businesses are becoming more creative. As such, bands for hire must raise the performance bar tremendously. There are even those in Hollywood who feel that music has become some what flat lined and needs a jump start. Bands for hire are the front runners in the music industry, it is the bands for hire that keep the music playing so to speak,, it is also the many radio dj’s and the club dj’s who spin countless varieties of musical creations every day during their performance. But in reality, the time has come to really raise the bar in terms of performances.

    The difference in bands for hire from Philippines and bands for hire from Canada are only the color of their skin really, in terms of performance, there are almost the same, the standard of performance is really not the far apart, bands for hire from America and Britain are a little bit different due to the fact that they will choose a particular concept and they will stick with it for the duration they wish to stay employed in the band for hire industry. In London you will find many “tribute bands” which basically are a copy in terms of looks, dressing and song choice to the particular individual celebrity band they wish to emulate. The standard band for hire is called cover bands for hire and they do the commercial pub/corporate circuit.

    In Asia the standard set up for bands for hire are either three (3) to four (4) piece with a sequencer backing them or a six (6) to eight (8) piece with an arrangement of instruments, bands for hire from eastern Europe are similar in their set up to the Filipino musicians where as bands for hire from Britain are mainly and always using instruments, very rarely are they a sequencer group as most British musicians are very highly educated and have degree’s in music from various prestigious universities in Britain. As such, with time moving forward, Talents For Asia, would like to ask all types of bands for hire to raise the bar in terms of your total performance.

    From the costumes you wear to the way you perform on stage. If all types of bands for hire can do a costume change at every set, it would first of all present a constantly fresh looking band thus keeping the energy of the guest high and in good spirits, secondly all types of bands for hire must make an effort to learn music that is popular in the venue they are performing as well as in the country they are performing, bands for hire should also take notice of various cultural and religious ethnicity of the country they are performing in so as to not offend any single person and or group through their performance antics.

    Raising the bar in terms of providing well timed choreography for each and every musical number performed will also further add value to the various types of bands for hire. Every employer in today’s industry that can’t find the X FACTOR in a particular band for hire will automatically look for material value instead of performance value, thus musicians today are wearing less clothing on stage which is seen as more value for the employer, to be direct, SEX SELLS and musical quality as well as performance standards have dropped tremendously over the past ten years or so. IF you were to watch a fiilipino show band for hire in the mid 80’s and compare it now with some of the live bands for hire today, you will see that those bands in the 80’s were the real performers who could take a room by storm with their instruments and vocal harmony and team work as a single musical unit thus making them truly entertaining.

    We at Talents For Asia really feel that all types of bands for hire in Bangkok, or bands for hire in Singapore to even bands for hire in Macau and bands for hire in Taiwan should really make an effort to better their performance thus it will also increase their value and raise their income potential if they were really be able to break a leg on stage in terms of a truly unforgettable performances, Raise The Bar Bands For Hire…..
