An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

When one thinks of the world of Filipino music, its place on the world-stage and its relationship with themes, one may only take a vertical slice of the culture through the lens of OPM Rock and its headliners of the early 2000’s to see the relationship that songs had with culture and its trajectory over the years. With themes of heartbreak, identity, struggle and sensuality, it was no wonder Armi Millare, once the voice of Up Dharma Down, had a firm grip on the zeitgeist that Filipino music held over the airwaves at such a time.
