Marion Talavera’s new single 'Ako/Tayo' is the kind of song that lingers long after the last chord fades — like the scent of petrichor, like a memory you didn’t know you still carried.
Following the dreamy release of 'Pantasya', Marion shifts gears into melancholic indie rock with 'Ako/Tayo', a song he says is best played “while driving in the middle of rainy June.” And true to that vision, the track captures a cinematic sadness — echoing love lost to time, with promises washed away like rain on pavement.
Blending early 2000s pop-rock with atmospheric textures and a singable hook, Marion weaves metaphor and memory into a sonic daydream. “I wanted listeners to relive memories that are long repressed but are brought back by the chill of the rain,” the singer-songwriter shares.
Wrapped in emotional candour and lush production, 'Ako/Tayo' builds a landscape where nostalgia feels like a place you’ve been — or maybe never really left.
