Morca Pika is Ugong's first experimental sound art project album. It is a collection of improvisation, ambient, noise and sound art materials, produced and manipulated electronically using circuit bent toys and other electronic instruments and effects. All tracks were recorded live using a Tape Recorder to preserve its rawness and organic sound. Ugong is an Experimental Sound Art project and brainchild of Erick Calilan.

Erick Calilan: "In 2005, PJ Soliven and I, together with some other musicians and artists, formed and founded 'Sound Existence' a conceptual sound and poetry group. Eventually, after knowing that the name 'sound existence' has already been existed as a band somewhere in the states, we changed the name of the group to Ugong (in Tagalog it refers to a 'roaring sound') on the following year. And later became a pure experimental sound art project.
Currently PJ Soliven has his own experimental group called 'Nyabinghi' and Ugong is still in a loose collaborative state."
