radiomanila rose from the ashes of an obscure band called Styrene, originally a 3-piece unit featuring Indie-pop luminaries Tom Jalina Jr., formerly of The Sleepyheads, Cliff Portilla, also of The Sleepyheads and the legendary Kid Auto Races in Venice, on drums and Norm Nunag on bass. Constantly searching for a new sound, they tried to hook-up with a host of guitarist until finally settling with their Axeman Emer Lacandazo. They started jamming around mid 2007 and played their very first gig under a different name at Taytay, Rizal (The Dinosaur place) using their own dough for transportation, for the sake/love of music. Armed with a couple of original materials and bastardized cover songs, they persisted and played their second gig at an Art Exhibit opening at Mag:net Katipunan, to a crowd of 20 people consisting mainly of friends, relatives and artists who were either drunk or high or both. Currently busy with their individual day jobs and working on original materials and planning to release an e.p. or a sort of album in the near future.
