‘Kasayaw’: Fresh sound for OPM dance classics
By Rito P. Asilo
If you want to start the year dancing, Luke Mejares’ must-hear dance recording, “Kasayaw,” is the way to go. None of its songs is new—but, Bimbo Yance’s reconfigured arrangements allow the singer to reintroduce the album’s classic OPM tunes to this generation’s techno- and hip-hop-weaned music lovers. Mejares “youthens” them further with the vocal supervision of Myke Salomon and Jimmy Bondoc.
