“The live version of Moonlight is absolutely one of our favorites from the new record. By keeping the production minimal and letting our voices lead, we found something more honest and human. Sometimes, less is more. These versions reveal who we are now. Everything was done with intention, but also with openness, allowing the moment to shape the performance. This album represents years of hard work, discipline, and belief, and we wanted it to feel alive and heartfelt. ” ~SB19
SB19 turns monumental concert into lasting legacy in Simula
At Wakas: Kickoff Concert Album. Recorded across the two-day concert in Philippine arena, the 19-track live album captures a defining moment in P-Pop history.
The live recording of songs from SB19's two-day performance at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan on May 31 and June 1, 2025, is called Simula At Wakas: Kickoff Concert Album. The record is further elevated by the group's undeniable world-class performance, which redefines a new era of audacity and ambition in SB19's music.
Live performances of songs from Simula At Wakas (2025) and Pagtatag! are featured on the 19-track CD, which was mixed and mastered by Radkidz with live arrangements by Jem Florendo. (2023), Pagsibol (2021), and the live performance of the well-known song "Moonlight"
The live rendition of "Moonlight," which first featured US-based producer/DJ Ian Asher and Chinese electronic producer Terry Zhong, takes a more somber yet muted approach. In this version's subdued orchestration, SB19's vocals take center stage, offering a more intimate rendition of the song.
The Filipino trio's musical and emotional growth is captured in the live CD, which was recorded during the first stops of their Simula At Wakas international tour. The two-night event kicked off a 21-show tour that traveled to cities and territories in the United States, Canada, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and other nations.
