Gusto kong maramdaman nila yung pagiging romantic ko. Gusto kong maramdaman nila yung pagmamahal. Kunwari nagye-yearn sila for love; they can just listen to the EP. – Dylan Yturralde
After Jarren Garcia, Rain Celmar, Kolette Madelo, Kai Montinola, and Fyang Smith dropped their EP albums on all music platforms, another Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11 ex-housemate has joined the recording industry: Dylan Yturralde, who has previously appeared in the Kapamilya series Love at First Spike and Sins of the Father, and the 51st Metro Manila Film Festival entry film Shake, Rattle & Roll: Evil Origins’ “2025” segment.
Debuted with his recently released EP, “Dylan”, a collection of songs that captures the beauty and messiness of love. The rising Gen 11 ex-housemate, with a penchant for vintage and old-soul music, hopes to showcase his romantic side and help listeners, including his fans, connect with different faces of love through his songs.
Produced under the ABS-CBN Music label, StarPop, helmed by its label head, Roque Santos, the EP explores loving, losing, finding one’s way back, and learning to move forward through its five pop tracks, consisting of Hulog Ng Langit (composed by Ato Arman), Ngayon (written by Trisha Denise), Halata Naman Na (penned by Dennis Campañer), Pikit (composed by Gio Ravelo), and Dito Ka Lang (written by Ron Pangyarihan).
Ngayon, the EP’s key track, is an ode to finding peace in the now. It is an intimate love song about finding comfort and peace in simply being with a loved one, without the need to define what the future holds. Dylan revealed that Ngayon holds a special place in his own heart.
Yung song na ‘yon ang nagbigay sa akin ng meaning. Kailangan focus muna tayo sa ngayon. Huwag nang problemahin ang bukas. Kung masyado nating iisipin ang bukas, hindi natin ma-eenjoy ang moment na ito, Dylan shared.
Dylan Yturralde, PBB Gen 11’s one and only Astig Volleybae of Pampanga, made a mark with his first musical project post-PBB, following his appearance as Ethan in Love at First Spike, one of the recently nominated entries for the 54th International Emmy Awards for the “Kids: Live Action” category, as well as Ken in Sins of the Father, and Marco in Shake, Rattle & Roll: Evil Origins’ “2025” segment.
As an artist from Star Magic and a former member of the University of the East (UE) Men’s Volleyball Team, he is grateful for this new opportunity and the blessings that have come his way in 2026, particularly the chance to share his gift of singing, especially as the PBB Gen 11 ex-housemate turned 24 years old last Tuesday, September 29, 2026 (b. 2002).
Excited ako sa mga dumarating na blessing sa akin kasi bago ang lahat. Sa [Star Magic] All-Star Games [2026], I played basketball. I haven’t played competitive basketball before. Ngayon may sarili na akong kanta. Makikita ko na yung sarili ko sa Spotify. You are never ready; kailangan matapang ka lang at i-enjoy mo ang process, at dapat mahal mo ang ginagawa mo, Dylan concluded.
During the media conference for his album launch held on September 30, 2026, several PBB Gen 11 ex-housemates supported the forthcoming debut EP, including Marc Nanninga, Kanata Tapia, Jan Silva, Gwen Montano, Jas Dudley-Scales, JP Cabrera, Binsoy Namoca, and Rain Celmar.
Before the release of his debut EP, Dylan, alongside Jas, Binsoy, and Rain, appeared in a music video for Jarren Garcia’s Gotchu on May 29, 2026. He also appeared as Raphael in the “Happy Libing” episode from Regal Studio Presents, which aired on GMA-7 a day after PBB Gen 11 premiered on ABS-CBN platforms.
Dylan also thanked Star Magic, VP Global Management, Rox Santos (Label Head for StarPop), Jonathan Manalo (Creatives, Content, and Operations Head for ABS-CBN Music), Roxy Liquigan, Dylan Spikers Official, PBB Gen 11 ex-housemates, the cast of Love at First Spike, and his friends for his latest journey beyond acting.
