PIOLO Pascual is breaking new ground in his almost three-decade career by forming his own recording company.
Pascual describes the indie label, Called Just Music, as a “space for artists to explore their creativity while keeping their rights a top priority.”
“I want to give them a platform, a chance to shine on their own,” Pascual said, citing the struggle of new artists in finding a venue for their music talent.
“When you see a lot of artists who could potentially make a change in the scene, you want to give them that opportunity. There are a lot of new artists and so much talent that have to be exposed, but they need a platform.”
For starters, the 44-year-old Pascual has taken in his wings upcoming singer-songwriters Kenji and NKO, who each had recently released their singles under the Just Music label.
“When I first heard them, I knew that they had global appeal, alam mong hindi sila basta mainstream songs,” Pascual said. “They have their own taste and expression in music.”
Pascual’s label is a unit of CS Music, Cornerstone Entertainment’s music label for big mainstream names such Kyla, Jay R, Jason Dy, Richard Poon, Ian Pangilinan, and Catriona Gray, among others. (ABS-CBN)
