Step into a world where every stream, share, and swipe becomes an act of musical invitation. With Vibe, TV5 and MQuest Ventures usher in a revolutionary fan-driven countdown that hands the spotlight to listeners themselves. In an era dominated by digital soundscapes, this show refuses to sit passively in the wings—here, audiences sculpt the weekly Top 10 by voting through SMS, web portals, Meta Messenger, and even radio requests on 105.7 TrueFM. It’s participatory entertainment at its most exhilarating, forging intimate connections between Filipino artists and the community that adores them.

From Vision to Stage

At the heart of Vibe beats the ambition of MediaQuest Holdings Chairman Manny V. Pangilinan, whose passion for content innovation and celebration of Filipino talent underpins every frame. This isn’t nostalgia dressed in neon lights; it’s a data-driven, interactive platform where fresh voices stand shoulder-to-shoulder with time-honored icons. Joining this audacious venture is the legendary Johnny “Mr. M” Manahan, whose storied direction of musical-variety television now channels a youthful, modern sensibility—one that places the fan’s taste first and makes every performance feel profoundly personal.

The Architects of Atmosphere

Enter the “Vibe” jocks: a collective of nine magnetic artists who double as your guides through OPM’s ever-evolving landscape. Dylan Menor opens the show with his honeyed timbre, weaving intimate ballads that feel like whispered confidences. Elijah Canlas follows, his poetic lyricism and brooding energy hinting at untold stories. Ana Ramsey ignites the mood with her powerhouse vocals and R&B flair, while Queenay brings her social-media charisma to the forefront, turning viral momentum into live performance electricity. Paulo Angeles, Kych Minemoto, Ryle Santiago, Joao Constancia, and Maxie Andreison complete this constellation, each bending genre conventions and forging genuine moments that resonate far beyond the studio lights.

Gen V—Tomorrow’s Songwriters

In a nod to the next generation, MQuest Ventures introduces Gen V, a dynamic roster of emerging talents poised to leave their mark on Filipino entertainment. Carmela Lorzano’s soulful warmth, Niko Badayos’s rhythmic ingenuity, and Gab Pascual’s lyrical sincerity join forces with Selina Griffin’s genre-crossing ambition, Adam Buck’s avant-garde edge, and Mark Ian’s infectious hooks. Within Vibe, these rising artists aren’t relegated to the wings—they headline dedicated segments where fans can discover, debate, and ultimately vote on the fresh sounds set to define tomorrow.

The Three Movements of “Vibe”

Vibe unfolds in three distinct acts. First, The Main Vibe unveils the week’s most popular OPM anthems, each ranking determined by the collective voice of the audience and brought to life through electrifying live renditions. Next, Uprising spotlights burgeoning acts and global-Filipino trailblazers, offering a launchpad where undiscovered gems find new devotion. Finally, The OG Experience casts a reverent gaze backward, celebrating the legends whose artistry paved the way—requests are funneled in through calls, emails, and even old-fashioned letters, reminding us that true fandom knows no era.

Living the Vibe—Your Weekly Journey

Every Sunday evening at 6:45 p.m., the main countdown pulses across screens for a full hour of live performances and fan-fortified hits. Come Monday, Vibe Up picks up the tempo—airing weekday afternoons from 4:45 to 5:30 p.m., this youthful, upbeat edition features guest appearances, trend spotlights, and unfiltered conversations on the moments lighting up social feeds. When the day winds down, Vibe Nights (11:30 p.m. to midnight) offers a laid-back wrap: music highlights, lifestyle segments, and real-time chat straight from the community. Saturdays at 6:30 p.m. bring Vibe TV, a weekend special recapping milestones and teasing the polls ahead. And thirty minutes before every Sunday countdown, Vibe Café goes live online, serving unplugged sessions, surprise drop-ins, and behind-the-scenes glimpses that whet the appetite for the main event.

Premiere & Collective Celebration

Mark your calendars: on August 9, 2025, Vibe makes its dazzling debut with a pilot countdown episode on TV5. One day later, the show springs to life from the TV5 Complex in Quezon City—an inaugural live experience uniting fans, jocks, and artists under one roof. Jane Jimenez-Basas, MediaQuest’s President and CEO, underscores this epoch as more than programming; it’s community building, where fans wield creative power. Peter Dizon, AVP of Content Operations at MQuest Ventures, champions Vibe as a milestone in connecting hearts through music and a clarion call for new ideas.
