Months after hitting mainstream recognition from their song “Selos,” alt-rock outfit the vowels they orbit released its latest single under Sony Music Philippines.
The new track called “Kiliti” showcased the band's more relaxed and technically adept side. The easy-listening song tackles on about finding the perfect someone in an imperfect situation – a kind of love that is capable of surmounting the greatest odds under any circumstances.
“The song was written by Nikka back in college a few years ago with just her guitar,” says Darwin Hernandez, the band’s manager, and Soupstar Entertainment’s head honcho. “The full band arrangements were done by all the members and was produced by Rye Sarmiento, who is also the guitarist of 6cyclemind and Banda Ni Kleggy.”
Banking on their simple-but-lush sound that has made them one of the most-heard alt-rock acts of today, the vowels they orbit takes pride with their collaborative effort in recording a worthy follow-up to their hit single. “At first, we can’t help but feel a bit nervous about the release of Kiliti given the success of Selos,” bassist Patch Javier points out. “But going back and remembering how Kiliti is such a different song makes us feel excited, rather than pressured. What’s important to us is that people get to listen to the song.”
“It’s always also a great feeling when listeners interpret the song in their own ways and find a connection to the song somehow,” vocalist and guitarist Nikka Melchor shares the same sentiment. “Knowing that we love this song and that we put a lot of work into it is enough to not feel worried.”
At present, the band is set to release an EP soon.
