Honored to be the first Filipino artist in the AIAIAI sponsorship programme. I carry my roots into every sound, creating wireless moments that stay grounded, and I’ll continue to give back through it. Grateful for the space, @aiaiai.audio . 🦎 Photographed by @josephbrmudez

🌾 Manobo (Indigenous Peoples) on a Global Stage. 🌏 To be part of the first Keep Hush in the Philippines felt surreal. Coming from a community that has often been unheard and pushed to the margins, being given that platform is something I honor deeply. Thank you to @wecantrelate__ and @wegoing.sound who believed in me, and to @keephush_ for holding space for Indigenous voices on a global platform. Rinsed the decks with the rhythms I grew up hearing in the streets, the spirit of our land and my hometown. This one was for my roots. Full set on (Keep Hush) Youtube. 🪐

The mutation progresses. What started as a shift now locks into full form, each phase intensifying, each transition pushing the system closer to completion. Orbit (@_orbit.wav ) enters with a distinct imprint. Drawing from his Manobo roots, he moves through rave and breaks, rhythmic, and deeply rooted. A different frequency, grounded yet forward-moving. Hundred Digits (@hundreddigits ) reinforces the structure. Jungle and dubstep at the core. Fast, weighty, and precise. This is where the system stabilizes under pressure, locked into its identity. Allives (@officialallives ) closes the sequence. Hard techno at full force. No restraint, no release. The final state of the system, fully transformed and pushed to its limit. No more phases. No more transitions. The evolution completes here. Enter the system. 🧬 April 9, Thursday 🧬 10PM till late 🧬 ₱400 door charge —— @apothekamanila

Organism 004 A Manobo sound selector and an art director from Kidapawan City, Philippines, Orbit approaches the dancefloor as a listening space, weaving Manobo references into global bass and experimental selections. Through his sound, Orbit reclaims space for Indigenous voices in contemporary music, pushing forward narratives too often erased, and reworking cultural memory through electronic form. His sets are ceremonies of movement, resistance, and ritual. He recently debuted at the first Keep Hush in the Philippines. The system compacts.

Metamorphosis begins before it becomes visible. The organisms are ready to be known and heard. ◉ ◉ ◉ sound engineered by @neilrvck_ materialized by @_orbit.wav

UNEARTH: UGAT 🌱 For this edition of Unearth we present “UGAT”, where we bring together artists whose sounds trace roots across memory, place, and possibility, from ancestral echoes to machine-born futures. First, Toha, crafting sonic journeys for mystics and misfits. Moving between trip hop, garage, trap, and bass music, their sets unfold like living stories, slow-burn atmospheres rising into primal release. Each drop becomes a portal, bridging metaphysical soundscapes with the pulse of the body. Next, Orbit, a Manobo sound selector and art director from Kidapawan City, who transforms the dancefloor into a listening space. Weaving Manobo references into global bass and experimental electronics, Orbit’s sets become ceremonies, acts of remembrance, resistance, and movement. Through rhythm and ritual, ancestral memory meets contemporary sound. Closing this feature is a bass-loving duo from Bantayan Island and Masbate, founders of Bantayan Bass Club. Rooted in provincial scenes yet boundless in curiosity, they bring wobbly basslines, broken beats, and playful unpredictability to the decks, treating the dancefloor as a conversation between DJ and dancer, instinct and surprise. From island frequencies to indigenous futurism to metaphysical bass explorations, UGAT reminds us that underground sound is always connected to where we come from.
