'''''Ultraelectromagneticjam!: The Music of the Eraserheads''''' is the first tribute album to the Philippine alternative rock band Eraserheads. It was released on November 29, 2005, by Sony BMG Music Entertainment (Philippines), Inc. and produced by Jam 88.3. The album features covers of Eraserheads songs as performed by Filipino artists. The title references the band's debut album ''Ultraelectromagneticpop!'' (1993).
==Background== The album was initiated by Jam 88.3 program director Eric Perpetua. When he approached the band's record label BMG with the idea, they readily agreed as long as he selected artists “as befitting the stature of the Eraserheads”. “Everyone jumped at the idea,” he recalled.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Chan |first1=Shyr |title=Reviving the Eraserheads spirit |url=https://www.philstar.com/entertainment/2006/02/14/321611/reviving-eraserheads-spirit |website=The Philippine Star |access-date=19 August 2024}}</ref>
As for why he chose to make a tribute album to the band, Perpetua replied: “No other band has made an impression and impact as big as they have on the music scene. No other band can create musical magic the way Ely, Marcus, Raymund and Buddy did when they come together. And no one comes close to the Eraserheads, then and now.”<ref>{{cite web |last1=Abunda |first1=Boy |title=Ely not happy with Eraserheads tribute? |url=https://www.philstar.com/entertainment/2006/01/11/316029/ely-not-happy-eraserheads-tribute |website=The Philippine Star |access-date=19 August 2024}}</ref>
Former vocalist Ely Buendia reacted to the tribute album: "I don’t have a problem with that. I just feel it’s not yet the right time to do such tribute because I’m still doing something worthwhile." Still, he appears in the album on the track “Superproxy 2K6” with rapper Francis M.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Enriquez |first1=Clara |title=Various Artists - Ultraelectromagneticjam Review |url=https://www.mtvasia.com/Review/CD/C20051222001370.html |website=MTV Asia |access-date=19 August 2024 |archive-date=25 February 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090225060752/https://www.mtvasia.com/Review/CD/C20051222001370.html |url-status=bot: unknown }}</ref>
