The very first album production of broadcasting students in the College of Mass Communication in U.P. Diliman. Under an elective called BC106, the goal of the course is to exploit music as an art and business. Unplug `N Play is an album of unplugged performances composed of unsigned bands. From almost 20 auditionees, 5 bands emerged as worthy candidates: White Noise, Pandora, Kiko Machine, Lady Bedspacers and Blue Note Funk– each with its own musical identity. This alpha venture set the foundation for future BC106 productions. The birth pains included off-sync recordings, headstrong artists, marketing woes and internal chaos. Ironically, despite the problems, the project was financially successful with its break-even finish.
