Sponge Cola Releases New Song Tempura

Wazzup Pilipinas!
Sponge Cola is back with an interesting pair of songs to close out 2017. Fresh off their latest hit “Bahaghari," which just recently entered Magic899's Hall of Fame list, the band is set to release “Tempura" and “Kunwari."

According to frontman Yael Yuzon, “Tempura" is "Basically a compilation of text messages from a friend, who was going through some relationship problems at the time." When asked about the title, he says "It is so personal and almost biographical, that the title is almost begging the listener to detach from the song's specifics. But at the same time, invites anyone who could lend an ear." So is it a rant? "I guess it is," Yuzon adds.

Bassist Gosh Dilay penned the bittersweet “Kunwari," that despite being a lighthearted song, deals with something everyone is all too familiar with: unrequited love. Framed by Dilay's trademark Filipino, “Kunwari” emphasizes the push and pull between being eager risk takers, and safe calculated people when it comes to love.

Both “Tempura" and “Kunwari” are available on all digital platforms!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

After successfully opening their maiden property in Puerto Princesa, Hue Hotels and Resorts brings their distinct shade of comfort and leisure to another top destination in the Philippines—Boracay. Hue Hotels and Resorts Boracay, managed by Hospitality Innovators, Inc. (HII), officially opened last October 26, 2017, offering guests a refreshing and game-changing way to enjoy and experience the island.

“We are so excited to be opening the second Hue Hotels and Resorts property in the country’s top vacation destination,” says Dexter Lee, Managing Director of Luana Lifestyle and Leisure Inc, and owner of Hue Hotels and Resorts. “Just like with all our present and future Hue properties, Hue Boracay is design forward and culturally rooted. The design, concept, and even the facilities reflect the personality of the destination and its cultural identity.” Hue Boracay recreates and infuses the island’s energy and vibrancy in its property to that guests can get the complete experience in the comforts of the hotel—the only reason they’ll leave the hotel is for the world-famous beach.

Hue’s distinct circular structure shape stands out among the typical buildings in Boracay, and is built around a picturesque pool with its own sunken bar. The whole property is filled with open, expansive and highly Instagrammable spaces, which include the hotel’s lifestyle complex Station X. With exciting mix of homegrown dining and retail concepts that espouse Hue’s advocacy of promoting local culture, visitors will never run out of interesting things to see, eat and discover within Hue. “With Station X, we’re bringing the concept of ‘cosmopolitan local’ to life,” describes Dennis Lee, Managing Director of Luana Lifestyle and Leisure Inc, and owner of Hue Hotels and Resorts. Guests can experience a melting pot of various cuisines in the island’s first and only Food Hall called Streetmarket, enjoy world-class cocktails from the much buzzed about bar Prisma, and more.

Behind each unique and colorful stay at Hue Hotels and Resorts is Hospitality Innovators, Inc. (HII), the company behind a number of well-received and rated hotels in the country. HII is responsible for the overall management of Hue Hotels and Resorts Boracay, encompassing day-to-day operations, financial results, sales and marketing, facilities upkeep and maintenance, and people management. “We are very excited about this partnership with Hue Hotels and Resorts, because we were so impressed with the concept,” shares HII founder and CEO Luis Monserrat. “They have been a great pleasure to work with and we are grateful to the Hue Hotels and Resorts team for choosing and trusting HII in this endeavor.”
