The relaunched label will provide local support for homegrown Filipino talent with an eye towards helping them reach international audiences.

“EMI has long been recognized as one of the most iconic record labels in the world.

At launch, the label’s roster includes Tim Dionela, and Daniel Paringit; the pop-punk group CHNDTR; the alt-pop band Gracenote and the veteran Filipino rock band Hale.
