rikm On Pantayo's self-titled release amazing percussion-based melodies and impressive vocals combine with synth programming to make solidly engaging Pop tracks with edge.

"Pantayo" is an incredible collection of songs drawing from traditional drumming, R'n'B, and old school Punk aesthetics that truly engages and comes highly recommended...

Cosmographer This record is in my top 20 for this year - it's catchy, smart and FUN songwriting that brings in a fresh bunch of ideas, sounds, tones, arrangements. This group oozes pure talent and imagination. I cannot stop listening to Pantayo! And the final tracks of the album are simply epic, CHECK IT OUT!

shimanovsky the entire album is fun and exciting, the song has a early 90's breezy summer vibe that takes me back exploring where it might have been. Favorite track: Kaingin.

like_a_ghoul Totally compelling. A series of successful experiments. As soon as it's over I can't wait to hit play again and hear how they made it happen.

elysselysse for the diaspora Favorite track: Bahala Na.
