| - Johnny Alegre Affinity – filipiński zespół jazzowy powstały w 2002 roku w Manili. Jego założycielami byli Johhny Alegre, Colby dela Calzada, Koko Bermejo, Elhmir Saison oraz Tots Tolentino. Ich pierwsza piosenka pt. Stones Of Intramuros – napisana przez Johnny'ego Alegre – trafiła na filipińską antologię jazzową Adobo Jazz Vol.1. Utwór wzbudził zainteresowanie brytyjskiej wytwórni płytowej , która to postanowiła nawiązać współpracę z zespołem. (pl)
