Otto Knows live in Cebu

Vinyl Entertainment Cebu and LIV Superclub announces a special live performance of International DJ Producer, Otto Knows. The Swedish artist will be performing live for the first time in Cebu on Saturday October 10, 2015.

Known for his global hit single Million Voices, Otto Knows is part of Sweden’s most talented and gifted exports of DJs and Producers. Brought to the attention of Sebastian Ingrosso thanks to a chance meeting in their native Stockholm, his development as a DJ and producer came through the first hand experience of touring alongside the Refune head honcho. Debuting alongside none other than Tim Berg and Swedish peer Oliver Ingrosso, the time between iTrack and his breakthrough single Million Voices was a period of considerable development under the watchful eye of Sebastian Ingrosso. Created in the back room of the studio whilst Ingrosso and Alesso penned festival favorite Calling, Million Voices would propel the young producer forwards, proving a consistent favorite both across the airwaves and on the white isle of Ibiza ever since and setting the benchmark for his productions at an all-time-high.

Receiving widespread attention Million Voices crossed over into mainstream consciousness, topping the Shazam chart and being added to the prestigious A playlist at BBC Radio 1, reaching a surge of new fans with each airing. It has since charted in the top 15 in the UK singles chart and gone gold in in Australia, Belgium, Holland and the producer’s native Sweden, while Otto Knows was named one of international tastemaker Pete Tong’s ‘Young Stars’. Million Voices has all the hallmarks of a future classic and has undoubtedly signaled the arrival of a new producer who you can be sure will be bringing a lot more to the table across the global dance floor for the foreseeable future. Having recently released his new hit single Next To Me Otto Knows looks to continue his presence globally.

From Cebu’s humble beginnings, it’s safe to say that Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino was there in the midst of the city’s development into one of the Philippines’ most progressive areas. Since the beginning, the property and its peers have always prioritized the citizens’ convenience by strategically placing themselves at the center of it all. Right across the hotel, what used to be Cebu’s very first airport is now a well-known destination for business development and commercial establishments, commonly referred to as the I.T. Park. Although the area has drastically changed over the years, Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino managed to adapt and develop just as the Queen City of the South developed.

CSR – Bureau of Fire Protection

Waterfront Cebu does not only provide a place to stay but is an avenue that evokes feelings and creates significant memories to be cherished for a lifetime. One memory that’s worth remembering was when Regine & Martin Nieverra had their concert at the Pacific Grand Ballroom in 2003. Not to mention, 2005 SEA Games held their Dancesport event at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino followed by the prestigious Mr. and Miss Cebu in 2008.

Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino is not only an essential part of the hospitality industry. The property continues to play its role as a vital force when it comes to giving back and uplifting the community. The premier hotel has contributed significant developments to the city’s growth, economy, and even tourism, but the property did not stop there. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities were also organized for Cebu’s social welfare as well as for the preservation of the environment with the aid of local NGOs and barangays.

Through the years here are some sustainable and transformative activities that the peers at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino have participated in:

– 2013: Lapu-Lapu Tourism Council Coastal Clean-Up
– 2019: Refurbishment Initiatives at Barangay Kang-atis Elementary School
– 2020: Waterfront Cares for Brgy. Suba (Part II)
– 2020: Weekly Round-Up – Frontliners of Brgy. Lahug
– 2021: Waterfront Bakuna Center
– 2021: Waterfront Care Packages
– 2022: Packages of Love to Barangay Looc
– 2022: Christmas Party for the Children at Barangay Pardo
– 2023: Tree Planting at Barangay Pung-ol
– 2023: Tree Planting at the Nug-as Forest Reserve

As Waterfront continues to blossom in the hospitality industry, its service with a warm smile is a Filipino value that guests would always come back to. In the effort to embody and maintain excellent guest satisfaction, the property’s department heads boast high training to its peers that remain visible in every guest interaction.

Keeping its grounds strong, Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino would like to acknowledge the 25 years of support from the local government of the city as well as from the province in Cebu. Celebrating 25 years of Commitment to Service will only continue and progress for the years to come as the property and its management is looking forward to 25 years and beyond of excellent service wearing the ‘Waterfront’ smile.

Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino would also like to thank their sponsors for this year’s 25th Anniversary celebration: Global Star Motors Corp., Cebu New Life Press, Premium Sole, Metro Retail Stores Group Inc., DC Fresh Flower Shop & Supply, Kettle & Shaker, and The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).

We want to build a festival that brings the best of the Philippines and the world together to meet and celebrate life and culture, which is what Sinulog is all about. We call it Wavy Baby because we want a wavy lifestyle and a wavy mindset. It also pays homage to Sinulog because the Sinulog symbols are water and the baby Jesus so it’s also a nod to that as well. We’re excited to be part of the Cebu family and build something special that hopefully we can repeat year after year.”
