Allen and I always say that two things brought us together: music and food. Our first conversation was over Dave Matthews Band on the back of a pick-up truck in Camarines Norte. Since then, we always knew we would be great friends because we like the same music. We would chat or text endlessly about what songs to download and fight over which version is better (he likes Crash into Me live at Folsom Field, I like the Abbey Road one).
Four years ago, we discovered another band to obsess about, Up Dharma Down. I'm too scared to write anything about them, but I can honestly say that we haven't heard anything we don't like. Their lyrics are eloquent but still relatable (I keep saying Allen and I got together because of Oo). And you don't hear their sound, you feel it. Armi's voice is extraordinary (girl crush!). Plus they offer something new every time. The never run out of different versions to their songs, whether it be a change in the rhythm, arrangement or melody. We just love them. There's nothing like the feeling of driving early in the morning with UDD on the background. It really transports you to some place else. Very addicting and otherworldly.
