Touted as the “Party Before All Parties”, Sony Philippines’ latest event was a big energy boost full of sound featuring performances by Jeremy G, Maki, DJ Katsy Lee, and the A-Team

Ah, the Filipino holiday season. It starts in September, defrosts Mariah Carey, and brings Jose Mari Chan to every corner of the archipelago. The ber months are all about the endless countdown to Christmas, where every party feels like a final encore, even though you know there are about ten more encores to go. Sony Philippines has just given us our top party starters with their launch of the ULT Power Sound series at the “Party Before All Parties” event. Let’s face it: a Filipino party without music is like karaoke without a mic—completely unacceptable.

Sony Philippines Lights Up the Holidays with ULT Power Sound Series maki dilaw

The music manufacturing company threw down the gauntlet at Xylo at the Palace. Touted as the “Party Before All Parties”, this event was the big energy boost we didn’t know we needed. Think of it as the Maki to your Sabrina Carpenter playlist—a vibe-setter of emotionally comedic proportions.

With Sony’s ULT Power Sound series, you’ll be the life of every gathering, from Noche Buena to that inevitable family reunion. With ambassadors like Carlos Serrano III, David Guison, Jeremy G, and Maki, you’ve got the crew to turn up the volume—bringing beats to your barkada hangout or cranking up the bass to block out all those nosy holiday catch up questions.

Bass Booms, Everyone Croons

At the heart of the ULT Power Sound series is a selection of next-level speakers and headphones designed for one thing: making sure you never miss a moment. We’re talking speakers so good, even Jose Mari Chan might reconsider hitting that high note on “Christmas in Our Hearts” again.

The ULT Wear Wireless Headphones are the accessory to drown out all the “Who’s your plus one for Christmas?” questions; with two bass settings—ULT1 and ULT2—you can decide whether you’re going for “deep and thoughtful” or “a statement that leaves no room for awkward follow-ups at the family dinner.” Then there’s the ULT Field 1 , small but mighty—like that one kid at every family gathering who belts out all of Frozen during karaoke.

For those looking to take their street corner caroling game to the next level, the ULT Field 7 delivers superior sound pressure, deep bass, and even a built-in karaoke function, making it essentially a portable videoke machine—who’s next for “Please, Please, Please?” And when it comes to the ULT Tower 10, it’s the speaker to end all speakers, boasting massive bass, 360° party sound, party lights, and a built-in wireless microphone; it’s like having a Charli XCX concert in your living room—just add lechon, and you’ve got a party.

Your Holidays, Your Vibe

Other than speakers, The “Party Before All Parties” was about unleashing those genuine warm moments. You know, that deep well of emotion that gets triggered when you’re vibing to Maki’s “Dilaw at 3 AM while eating leftover biko. As Kentaro Imamura, Sony Philippines’ marketing director, put it, “Music has always been part of any Filipino celebration, especially the holidays.” Isn’t this true? Music is the background score to our lives, making every moment feel like a scene straight out of a holiday rom-com.

And speaking of rom-coms, if your life feels like Anyone But You—unexpected feuds, chaotic chemistry, and a whole lot of scheming—the ULT Power Sound series is here to keep the script going, unwritten as it may be. Feel the bass on your skin.

Ready for the Party Marathon?

In true Filipino holiday fashion, it’s going to be a marathon of celebrations. From reunions and office parties to simbang gabi and random get-togethers, it’s not a holiday season without your personal anthem playing in the background. With Sony’s ULT Power Sound series, you’re covered for every type of gathering—from barkada blowouts to tito’s “after-party” that never seems to end.
