Universal Records is proud to present Noel Cabangon's latest album "Panaginip" featuring the launching single of the same title.
"Panaginip" boasts of 15 tracks consisting of 4 covers and 11 original compositions of Cabangon. The album was recorded at Sound Creation with major musical arrangers Bob Aves, Fred Garcia, Ria Villena-Osorio, Simon Tan and Ito Rapadas.
The album was inspired by Sting's performance with the Royal Philharmonic in Berlin.
"People tend to know me more as an acoustic performer," says Cabangon. "This time, this album is mostly done with a full band with orchestral arrangements."
Asked why have "Panaginip" as the album title, he replies, "Dahil lahat ng kanta ay nagmumula sa imahinasyon. Ang mga awit ay tula, ang mga tula ay awit. Ang mga awit ay likha ng malayang panaginip. Ang panaginip ay likha ng malayang isip. Ang pag-iimagine ay malaya, wala naming nagbabawal sa iyo."
While it may appear that Byahe turned to be the biggest selling album of Cabagon's career mainly because of the great cover songs, Cabangon bravely takes the road less traveled with an album comprised mainly of original songs.
"It's a bit risky, kasi sa panahon ngayon 'in' pa rin ang covers", says Cabangon. "Byahe was an overwhelming success because the advantage was it had very familiar songs. But Universal Records is behind me. It is called Panaginip because it's a challenge for a songwriter is for his creation to be heard. Kailangan tayo gumawa ng originals. We have to move forward and write more songs. For the songs in this album, hinahanap ko yung elegance ng mga hit songs. As songwriters, we need to challenge ourselves into creating a brilliant concept and to become brilliant songwriters na di natin makita sa mga new songs, walang sophistication and elegance. We should try to write lyrics that are poetic without becoming too deep. We need to challenge our listeners. Kailangan makadagdag na rin tayo to the rich anthology ng Philippine music."
Noteworthy original songs include collaborations with former Sugarfree frontman Ebe Dancel ("Hulog Ka ng Langit") and Diamond soul siren Nina ("Ikaw Na Sana"). Other impressive new songs include the aforementioned title track "Panaginip", as well as "Dahan Dahan", "Bayani ng Bayan", "Ngayon ang Bagong Simula", the hip-hop flavored "Walang Katulad" and the haunting "Awit ng Naghahanap", a heart-wrenching tune inspired by victims of political killings. Three longtime original songs from Noel Cabangon are also included in the album ("Sana Dumating Ka na", "Dahil Nariyan Ka" and the '80s inspired "Umuulan sa Tag-araw, Umaaraw sa Tag-Ulan").
Of course, the covers are still there: "Bulag, Pipi, Bingi" (Grand prize song of the 2nd Metropop Music Festival, originally performed by Freddie Aguilar), the Heber Bartolome classic "Tayo'y Mga Pinoy", "Tag-Ulan" by Lolita & The Boys and the Pete Lacaba/Ding Achacoso-written "Sangandaan", which gained attention from the Mike De Leon classic film "Sister Stella L".
With his new album, Noel Cabangon is once again ready to sing about us and his dreams for all of us.
"This album encapsulates my dreams for my country, my fellowmen and my friends," says Cabangon. "It's one big challenge to do well primarily on original songs but this is one of the challenges that is worth working hard for, para mabigyan buhay ang bayan."
