There exists a unique form of comfort that only music can genuinely provide, and SALA's latest single 'Tahanan' under AltG Records perfectly embodies this sentiment. Following the impressive success of their debut track 'Hi, Tita!' and the powerful rock-ballad collaboration with Wickermoss titled 'Sa Wala,' the band makes a compelling return with a song that creatively redefines love as a personal sanctuary.
From Question to Resolution: The Emotional Journey
While 'Sa Wala' posed the profound and heavy question of how to move forward amidst lingering past pain, 'Tahanan' offers a beautiful and heartfelt resolution. 'The song paints love as a home that steadies you when you feel the entire world is falling apart,' explains Neth Macam, the band's talented vocalist. 'Sa Wala was about asking what to do; Tahanan is the answer - it's what we will do. We will make each other a safe space.'
Central to the song's deep emotional core is the vivid imagery of shared movement and perfect synchronization, as highlighted in the poignant lyric: 'tayo'y magsasayaw na apak mo magkabilaan kong mga paa.' 'It's about dancing through life's problems with a single rhythm and a shared destination,' Macam elaborates. 'When you dance with someone's feet on yours, you must move as one unified entity. That's what tahanan or home truly means to us - finding that special person who becomes your peace, regardless of the chaos unfolding outside.'
Creative Freedom and Authentic Sound Exploration
SALA, composed of members Neth Macam, Allen Lucas, Fourth Tayag, and Rigil Borromeo, credits AltG Records for providing the essential creative freedom to explore their distinctive and evolving sound, which ranges from intense metal and nostalgic '60s music to classic old-school R&B influences. 'Now that we have AltG Records, we possess a reliable means of disseminating our music while staying completely true to our artistic vision,' says Macam. 'They've given us the confidence to experiment boldly and share our authentic sound with a much wider audience.'
The single 'Tahanan' is now officially available for streaming and download on all major digital platforms across the nation, allowing fans to immerse themselves in this heartfelt musical offering.
