⌛ Dumaguete Song

We are trying to have a Dumaguete song made.

This is a very early demo, but it should give you an idea about what we are trying to do.

Dumaguete Song Demo

What do you think?

 

It's nice!

 

Maybe you can send the demo to Hale - and they can do a cover of it on their next album.....

 

Veeeryyy nice! Try to make the places that are mentioned sponsor the song (like Coco Amigos, Eldorado and so on)

 

Played it for my wife this evening. She liked it too. Nice advert in the middle . Could use a good guitar solo (maybe dual-guitars), something along the lines of Hotel California's guitar-work.....you can also add 'but you can never leave........' :D

 

Wow,Dumaguete song...that was brilliant ! :D

Hello everyone there!
I had just finished listening to your newly composed song "Dumaguete". I am so impressed. It's very poetic. I love it! Are you going to put it in CD in the near future? If you do I would like to purchase one for myself. Kudos to all.

Original Dumaguete Song

We have our own Dumaguete Song originally composed by a Dumagitnon named “ Katong “ which is filled with sentiment, a very soft waltzing melody . Just like any other cultured nation’s national anthem. It was well accepted with respect and pride by the community. That was the 60’s.

If the local new generation of Dumaguete did not know anything about this, then the previous generation did a poor job of passing it on to them. Maybe we were just to busy thinking about leaving Dumaguete.

I think this is a good trevia question worth a US$ “GRAND”.

What was the name of the original Dumaguete Song written and composed by a person named “ Katong”, clue: Katong is (or was if he’s already dead) gay.

 

Dumaguete song

I know what you are talking about the gay "Katong". Yes, he died several years ago. When I was little (about 5 years old), I used to go to his piano studio with my mother not to learn piano but just to play the key-boards one at a time while my mother waited for "Katong". He was supposed to be my uncle (4th degree). Yes, he was the one who composed the old Dumaguete song. If by any chance, you find the old song Dumaguete, would you please e-mail me? I would really appreciate it and thank you. Oh, by the way, his last name was Villariza. Good luck!
