Butanding is a song about our encounters with the whaleshark in Donsol, Sorsogon, Philippines. Aside from the Butanding, our Butanding spotter friends--Allan, Jun and Omar-- also inspired Carol to write this song. Sammy gave the song more life with his soulful arrangement.

Sarung banggi or sarong banggi, or 'one night' in English, is a traditional folk Filipino song composed by Potenciano V. Gregorio. Pinikpikan, with Sammy in the masterful lead guitar exhibition, interpreted sarung banggi with its own percussion-intensive style while retaining the lyrical and melodical beauty of the song.

Butanding and Sarung Banggi are in Pinikpikan's Kaamulan album.
