In an effort to show appreciation to the fans who have been through their musical journey, 6cyclemind recently teamed up with Sony Music Philippines for Sige I-Cover Mo Lang Project. The initiative, which supposed to be an independent project, encouraged fans to submit covers of their favorite songs from the bands’ catalog.
This makes us feel that, somehow, through our music, we have touched their lives. This is the reason we have done this project.” With the number one singles, best-selling albums, and sold-out shows, 6cyclemind continues to gain a foothold in the local music industry.
Fan involvement
6cyclemind lead guitarist Herbert Hernandez added, “We gave them the freedom to interpret the song of their choice. While screening the entries, we followed our gut feel and looked for the cover that will move us.
2020 version of “Biglaan”
From the pool of submissions, Bianca’s stripped-down version of “Biglaan” stood out the most. It earned a spot as one of the first among the three winners of the all-covers record. “Whenever I want to cover songs, I usually just search for the chords and let myself feel the music,” the budding artist said. “I was pretty melancholic during these times so my general approach was to make the song softer and downcast which is what I usually do to songs I usually sing.”
According to Bianca, the project “was such a great platform to thank the band’s fans and also give opportunities to artists” like her.
The sixteen-year-old singer-songwriter recorded the song at Backdoor Recording Studio, and it was produced by 6cyclemind.
Bianca’s rendition of “Biglaan” is now available on various music streaming/download platforms worldwide.
