GORGORO visits HOOTERS!





yehey!!!


GORGORO attended the 2nd Internet and Mobile Marketing summit (day 1)



It's the first day of the 2nd Internet and Mobile Marketing Summit here at the Grand Ballroom of the Hotel Intercontinental (Intercon). When I heard that IMMAP (Internet and Mobile Marketing Association of the Philippines) will be holding a summit, I immediately rushed and registered.


I felt the need to attend this summit because I know that the Internet is very very vital and will probably be the best way to reach my dad.

So far, I've learn a lot from the speakers (David Kho,VP of Yahoo!SEA, David L. Jones,VP for Global Marketing,Friendster. Simon Bond,Regional Director of Proximity Worldwide and many more). I discovered possibilities that will Probably lead me to my dad. Fingers crossed....

Gorgoro's Breadtalk commercial




Hold your horses. I am not the star of the new Breadtalk commercial.

Breadtalk has given me a great oppurtunity to compose all the music in their newest viral/ TV ad,starring Flosss.

I did the Sound effects, background music, did the OBB and CBB and sang them as well. Basically,all the sound you would hear in this ad was done by me (for the exception of the Narration which btw was done by a good friend of mine,Cey Enriquez)

I'm very greatful of Breadtalk for entrusting me this "sound directorial" job.

Hopefully this will open a lot of doors for me. Maybe someday,Coke,Enervon or a morning show would get me to do their jingles.

I'm certain, that if my father would see and hear this ad,he would be proud of my musicianship and realize that I, his son, inherited his musical abilities,

Special thanks to Mr. Giron, Mr.Vicuna, Ms.Acena, Mr.Roberto and Mr.Winward Chu.
I would also want to thank my guitarist, Billy Gary Reyes for being my Sound Engr. in this project.

Splendid!!!

ROCK-IN-A-BOX

An excerpt from http://jakeyrastorza.multiply.com/journal/item/6/Rock-in-the-Box?replies_read=5

Thank you man!



Every 300 years, a band built around a crazy concept lands on earth and conquers us all. Think Gorillaz. Think Gorgoro.

Gorgoro's a puppet. Who loves music. Who also fronts for a band naturally named after him. He sings from behind a box while his, well, human bandmates rock on around him. And the music's pretty good. They have a light, bouncy feel to them. If you've seen them play their single, "Mapakali," at least a couple of times, the song sticks in your head. And it has the uncanny ability of popping up with images of a dancing puppet with a striped green T-shirt and high-waisted jeans at the strangest times---like in a serious meeting at the office.

They sang four songs that night because by Gorgoro's own admission, they only have four songs yet. Yeah, give the puppet a break. Even the Beatles had to start somewhere. But their whole set just cracked us up. In between songs, you would catch him "consulting" bandmates, presumably to agree on the next song to play. Or he would engage the audience in a lively banter. As they wound up their set, he exhorted all to, "think inside the box!" Even his bandmates could not keep straight faces on stage.

Look him up. He's here on multiply: http://gorgoro.multiply.com. He's on youtube, myspace, and probably every social networking site out there. Better yet, watch him live.

Who needs tattoed, menacing rock stars when you've got Gorgoro?
