AKLAS: Dugo't Asul Na Utak MV Drops February 14th
Following the release of Diliman, AKLAS will drop another offering from his NAKATARYANG LIGAYA EP.
The EP was produced by Dosage and recorded at the Dosage Lab in Mindanao during The Antolohiya Ni AKLAS Tour in the region down south. Dugo't Asul na Utak is the artist's take on his surroundings, his own interpretation of how society perceives the current scene and how everyone seem to remain in closed eyes in actual situations representing daily life. In a short chat, AKLAS responded to the question "About sa ano po ba ang kantang ito?"
Out of his usual portrayed character as AKLAS, we were curious why the set date for the new music video to be released was on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2020. Philip, as he is to many of us, simply smiled and said,
The Music Video, however, twists in a different light where AKLAS plays the role of a doll maker wanting to breathe life in one of his works. Dugo't Asul na Utak: The MV Project has been materialized through the collective efforts of AKLAS and Leftout Entertainment through The Unscene PH.

AKLAS:
About to mismo sa sarili ko. Sa nakikita ng mga tao sakin na akala nila ganon talaga pero hindi. Ganon lang talaga na masaya ang lahat pero maraming madilim na pangyayare sa likod ng lahat ng ito.
At sa pag pupursige ko sa pangarap dahil alam ko na hindi basta-basta makukuha ito, kailangan mo magsakripisyo.
Kasama nadin dito ang hirap na dinaanan ko kapalit ang pagiging kilala, o pansamantalang kasikatan, na hindi ito madali kung akala nila na madali lang lahat at masarap ay isang malaking hindi. May hapdi bawat ngiti. Tungkol din ito sa kung ano ba mahalaga sa likod ng pagiging kilala? Kailangan ko bang sakyan ang trip nila para sa salitang "idol?".
Ito din ay naglalahad ng dahan dahan pagkalunod sa bisyo at luho nakakalimutan mo nang tao ka padin sa kabila ng pansamantalang pagiging kilala. At laman ng usap usapang hindi naman nakakatulong mismo sakin. So basically, ang kantang to ay AKO at ang paligid ko.

"Kasama ko kasi ang asawa ko sa music video na yan. Sa unang beses, nag kalakas ng loob na mag pakita sa tao. Ako very protective ako ayoko kasi madamay siya sa mga ginagawa ni AKLAS pero dahil sa mga oras ng pagsusulat ng kantang to ay kasama ko siya, siya talaga ang umahon sa akin sa dahan-dahang pagkalunod. Kaya sa Araw ng mga Puso ko ilalabas tong music video na to."

When asked for an end note relating to his latest Music Video offering, AKLAS replied,
"In the end, marami ang ayaw umamin at nakalimot na tao ka pa din. At naging puppet mismo ng kasikatan at alipin na ng pera. Masakit marinig, pero minsan na din akong dumaan sa landas na yan, kaya nga ako kumawala, kaya nga ayaw ko na balikan. Ayoko din ng tinatawag akong idol pero di naman sumusoporta sa sining at musika ni AKLAS, di tayo pwedeng mamilit, pero kung idol mo nga ako, at least man lang alam mo ano talaga ang ginagawa ni AKLAS."
