Autotelic Unveils New Single "Hahayaan," Marking a Bold Return to Music
Manila, Philippines – August 2, 2024 – Filipino alternative band Autotelic is thrilled to announce the release of their latest single, "Hahayaan," set to drop on Spotify on August 30, 2024. This highly anticipated track comes three years after their previous release, "Kwentuhan," and marks a significant new chapter for the band under their recent partnership with Yellow Room Music label.
Formed in 2012, Autotelic has made a name for themselves in the music scene with their infectious blend of catchy, danceable melodies and emotionally charged lyrics, a unique style they refer to as "iyak-sayaw." The band, comprised of Josh Villena (vocals and guitar), Neil Tin (guitar), Ted "Pabs" Vargas (bass guitar), EJ Edralin (keyboards), and Gep Macadaeg (drums), has garnered critical acclaim and commercial success, earning prestigious awards and accolades throughout their career.
Autotelic's impressive discography includes fan favorites like "Laro," "Languyin," "Gising," and "Takipsilim." Their debut album, Papunta Pabalik, received a Platinum Award for record sales, and the band has released three EPs to date: the self-titled Autotelic (2013), We Are (2014), and Takipsilim (2018).
"Hahayaan" stays true to Autotelic's signature sound, offering listeners a danceable experience while introducing a darker undertone that marks a departure from romantic themes that have been pervading the local pop music scene. This new direction promises to showcase the band's evolution and artistry as they venture into fresh sonic territory.
In celebration of the release, Autotelic will host an intimate soft launch and Q&A session at Jess & Pat's on August 29, 2024, followed by a single launch gig at One Two Three Block on the release day, August 30, 2024. Fans and music enthusiasts are invited to join the band for a night filled with music, discussion, and a glimpse into the inspirations behind "Hahayaan."
As the first release of many planned under Yellow Room Music, "Hahayaan" signals an exciting new era for Autotelic, and the band is eager to share their journey with their loyal fanbase and new listeners alike.
