Chot Ulep
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ramoncito Dayawon Ulep (born July 15, 1974, Quezon City, Philippines) also known as Chot Ulep is a Filipino songwriter and bassist.
Chot Ulep wrote the entire album of Ninni, the first Filipino artist signed by the then merger of Octo-Arts EMI Philippines and Virgin Records in 1999, with the help of producer, label manager and former Truefaith keyboardist, Francis "Kiko" Guevarra, Jr.
Before his deal with Octo-Arts EMI and Virgin, Chot formed the band called rAiNCrOwd in 1997, opening the shows for major Asian bands as Eraserheads and True Faith (band). His untimely decision to settle in the U.S. in 1999 after signing with Octo-Arts EMI and Virgin broke the band's promising future in the Philippines. In 2005, "Pananagutan", a song written by Chot and one of rAiNCrOwd's unreleased single that was also included in Ninni's album was remade by Nikki Gil (EMI Philippines) under her self-titled album.
In October 2006, Chot Ulep joined the now L.A.-based and one of the most prominent bands ever to emerge in the Philippine music scene, Introvoys.
Ulep now lives in Los Angeles, California, pursuing a career in business and finance, and continuing to do music.
