About this concert
The Psi Kappa Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi presents its largest event in history - HeartBeats Benefit Concert. HeartBeats was derived from the notion of positively impacting lives ("heart") through the method of music ("beats"). This year proceeds from the event will go to Wildlife Conservation Network.
Manila Killa has been producing since middle school when he first started toying around on GarageBand in late 2009 after moving back home to the Philippines. Previously, he was just interested in dance music and the culture that lied beneath it; however, he admits that moving back to his homeland shaped his view on the culture, and future vision of how music could be made. His interest in production grew quickly as his friends presented him an influx of so many different genres. His taste and passion for music as a whole has prepared him to understand what people want to hear in any kind of setting, as his diverse track roster has proved him worthy of understanding many genres of dance music.

Manila Killa Biography
Surveying the wonders of cultures from across the globe, Chris Gavino, best known as Manila Killa is a well-traveled producer inspired by his cross-continental upbringing. A now decorated producer with an expansive repertoire of accolades, Manila Killa cut his musical teeth as a high schooler in The Philippines by combining self-taught Ableton lessons with a penchant for electronic music. Guided by emotion-driven soundscapes and the connective nature of melodic dance music, Manila Killa excels at synthesizing the foundations of human passion. In 2014, he formed the successful house duo Hotel Garuda and co-founded his own independent record label Moving Castle which has since housed acts like Slow Magic, AObeats, Khamsin, and many more. Since his departure from Hotel Garuda in 2018, Manila Killa refined his solo craft with his 2019 debut EP 1993 which garnered praise from media heavyweights like Billboard, Forbes, and Ones To Watch adding to a laundry list of critical acclaim joining tastemakers like Complex, Paper, and NYLON. With official remixes for Chvrches, The Knocks, Tegan and Sara, and performances at festivals like Firefly, Ultra Miami, Electric Zoo, 88rising's Head in the Clouds, and more, Manila Killa is defined in equal parts as a producer, performer, and in-demand collaborator. Dedicated to the consciousness of contemporary dance music, Manila Killa is distilling years of passionate experience and expertise to unveil his debut album in the summer of 2022.
