  • Who makes the karaoke tracks Pinoys love?
    Jun 11 2025

    Ever belted out a karaoke classic and wondered, "Sino'ng gumawa ng backing track na 'to?" Music arranger Brian Cua pulls back the curtain on the unseen (and unheard of) world of karaoke production. How are these instrumental versions recorded? And why do some sound almost like the real thing, but many sound like the same instruments reused over and over?
    We dedicate this episode to a friend of the show, Joe Salcedo (1996-2025), who shared his experience as a karaoke arranger with us. Thank you, Joe!
