We’re blasting One Click Straight’s new track on our next trip

Right off the bat, the boys of One Click Straight have had a pretty good year. They released their music video for “Manila” (co-starring Ely Buendia), brought their sound to Music Matters live in Singapore, dropped a striking synth pop-ballad “Paraiso,” among others. Well, with how their latest track “Bitaw” sounds, it seems like the alternative-pop band isn’t going to escape our radar anytime soon.

Infused with their unapologetically chill but experiential soundscape, “Bitaw” feels like a song straight out of an upbeat cyberpunk adventure. The track pushes the listener to step inside their imagination , and stay there for the duration of the track—hence the lyric, “pumikit ka lang at huwag kang bibitaw.” The familiar OCS synths are at their A-game here once again, and we can’t help but bob our heads to the beat. The overall vibe comes off great for all kinds of rides, long or short. 

You might be wondering why you haven’t found this on music platforms yet. Don’t fret, because their online fanbase Nostalgics PH got first dibs. You can join their group here to escape the impending FOMO. Have a good night, folks.
