BOOKNATION



“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” - Dr. Seuss

Despite our high literacy rate, many Filipinos can barely read and write.  Recently Keb Darge had posted a message through Facebook and asking for assistance. 

He is now living here in our country with his lovely Filipina wife Little Edith, Keb is trying to build a free library for the children in Padang, Eastern Samar. The kids  over there had dreamt of reading books but sadly they can not afford to have one.

Since Keb Darge had helped Bisikleta Production and it's about time to give it back to him. Bisikleta Productions along with Boppin' Juke Pilipinas, Soundblasters and PiliSKApinas is helping Keb in his noble cause and for that we are launching KEB DARGE'S BOOKNATION a DJ event for the said cause this coming November and it will be a book donation campaign. Your books will provide inspiration as well as a motivation to a young individual. 

In the meantime keep your eyes and ears peeled for this event as it progress. Together we can change the future and eradicate illiteracy one book at a time. 

Meanwhile you can reach out by sending books to Keb's wife, Edita Carlites Darge at this address: Barangay Padang, Hernani, Eastern Samar, Philippines 6804. The postage for the books will cost a wee bit but you'll make alot of people in that area very happy.

HOY!


In anticipation for the debut album of The Exsenadors, Bisikleta Productions is jump starting a series of strictly Oi! music events featuring streetpunk bands that plays music for hooligans. And for that we are offering all you skinheads out there the real deal if you are tired of seeing and hearing all the psuedo streetpunk bands being featured on some faux Oi! events that boldly uses that cockney expression and taking that word in vain then this is for you.

And for this initial offering of Hoy! we are featuring Philippines Oi! music pioneers THE MIGHTY CONTRAS, The lone band to represent our country for Skinhead! It's an Asian league Oi! compilation released by Japan's Bronze Fist Records.

Along side The Mighty Contras we will also be featuring Bulacan's TARTARZ, Laguna's AGAINST THE WALL, Cavite's The SQUAT and lastly but not the least Manila's THE EXSENADORS rounding up this testosterone filled line up for October 27, Plus A BOY NAMED HIL will be playing some boss reggae for your jeggae to keep all you baldies from dancing with your birds rather than going aggro.

This event will be held at THE SPOT located at 1470 Luzvic Building Samson road corner Francisco Street, Caloocan City. For a measly sum of 50 pesos you'll get to hear some brutally honest to goodness loud music void of any pretensions and an ice cold beer to boot.
