About this Song
Cueshé crafts Back To Me as a work rooted in the rich, sprawling landscape of Filipino creative music-making, a space that has long nurtured creators who push past the boundaries of preassigned genre labels to build work that holds its own distinct, uncategorizable logic, unshackled from the expectations that come with being slotted into a narrow, widely recognized genre bucket. The designation of Music/Other, far from being an afterthought or a failure to categorize, acts as a deliberate and meaningful frame for this sound, a marker of work that resists the limited boxes that streaming platforms, retail spaces, and mainstream critical frameworks so often use to corral creative output into easily marketable, easily digestible groups that rarely account for the depth and diversity of creative work emerging from regions outside of the Western cultural core that shaped most of the genre labels that dominate global music discourse today.
