Has anybody heard of this Korean band (musician?) called park bird? I love their extremely chill vibes ("Growing Older" is my favorite song on that link), but I can't find literally anything about them online.

Scylo posted:Twice performing a new song was cool, sounded alright had this song on play a bit today and if I'm hearing right it's in Eb lydian which is loving wild for a pop song. Kpop is progressing quickly into doing way more interesting things musically while keeping the song structure simple and catchy.

Scylo posted:According to twitter translators, Nayeon said on vlive+ chat that it isn't for a repackage, just a "gift for Once" also she doesn't think it will be released digitally but they could do it if people like it lol They've mentioned before that they were given a title track before I Can't Stop Me that they ended up not using. I wonder if that's what this is.

I don't know if anyone here cares about music theory in Kpop but I made a video explaining what makes Twice's new song sound so cool if you're interested. It's only 9:30 too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wJzjRJzsGk bring on the neo soul kpop please and thanks

It's probably a good job they were strict on the mask thing for MAMA and had people wait in cars, because chung ha tested positive for covid and sana from twice has had contact with her recently so now twice are being tested and I guess if anyone comes back positive then everyone that was there last night also needs to be tested/isolate? year end shows starting to seem like a bad idea

Yeah, BigHit already just cancelled the offline portion of their New Year concert and if the year-end Gayos are smart they'll do the same.

I'm amazed we haven't had way more confirmed cases of covid for idols this year tbh. I won't be surprised if more start getting positive test results after all of the year end shows. The broadcasting companies seem to be doing much more to keep idols from coming in contact with one another unless needed (like for the year end collabs etc), at least. A whooooole lotta girl groups are waiting on tests r/n tho either from having members who are friends with Chungha or simply going to the same salon as her. Hope they all test negative. e: also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8IwE2ACA_M bless esperterra fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Dec 7, 2020 |

There's been a huge lapse in my listening to k-pop. I was pretty big on Baby Vox in my early teens back in the late 90s/early 2000s and haven't listened to any k-pop since. I recently discovered G-Idle after really liking a couple tracks from K/DA that features two members from the group. I'm kinda obsessed with G-Idle now. I was told I'd like Blackpink too since I'm digging G-Idle. Any other recommendations? [edit] For reference, I'm really vibing to this track on repeat atm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8zTRXCgF1Y Dumdi Dumdi is also catchy as hell. teagone fucked around with this message at 04:51 on Dec 8, 2020 |

Bon Bon Chocolat was such a killer debut for them. The first 6 seconds sound like hyper pop sounds I would have previously imagined Kpop to be, but then that bass drop and vocal hit for the verse just smacks.

G-Idle has new stuff coming in January. No word on if it's an album/mini/single yet though. Oh and 3 Dreamcatcher members covered Seventeens Oh My! and it's loving great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpYjRaGwOKE and if you're not listening to Dreamcatcher this live video will probably win you over because goddamn their vocals. Siyeons belting at the end is so effortlessly powerful. I can't believe they haven't won a show yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6HjSELoh8w Bottom Liner fucked around with this message at 04:54 on Dec 9, 2020 |

Dreamcatcher is a group I wish I liked more. Their vocals slay and performances own, but I don't vibe with most of their music. Anyway their Relay Dance of Abracadabra is a blessing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0-AJT9IPcY

The translated tweet said "new song after 5 months" so I guess maybe it's a single. As an aside, I just watched a video of Miyeon doing this masked signer variety show thing and she sounds so different compared to her parts in every G-Idle track. Hope they showcase more of her vocal range in the new stuff. And Yuqi too, I love her voice

They're all so talented and have some great songs (Playing With Fire, Forever Young, As if it's Your Last, Kill This Love, Lovesick Girls are my favorites) but their company and writer/producer are definitely holding them back. They're giving them boring and predictable material and mostly sticking to the strictest formula of any major kpop group. I say "holding them back" despite their meteoric international success obviously.

Putting a concept teaser out for a song everyone's heard seems pointless, I just want it to be released already. Would be curious to know if they filmed all of this after Nayeon said there were no plans to release it or if they actually always had planned it and it is actually going to be part of a repackage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqtsU5QLbek Centusin fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Dec 13, 2020 |

That set looks more like a photoshoot than a MV so it might be a quick thing they threw together. Dark Twice is good though, I really like how much they've matured and evolved their sound over the past year.

I really like As If It's Your Last even tho it's a kind of a weird, disjointed song. The rap section sounds like it's from a completely other song. But it has that YG songwriting flavor to it, it might as well be a 2ne1 or Big Bang song with a few tweaks. Like, I can hear Taeyang singing the chorus in my head. Teddy Park is a good songwriter and I love some of his songs, but the way YG have relied so heavily on the same songwriter for all their big group singles for more than a decade is kind of boring. E. I did a youtube search for "big bang without seungri" and it delivered lmao https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjjpciFPwO0 MIDWIFE CRISIS fucked around with this message at 12:59 on Dec 15, 2020 |

The thing that makes me negative towards them is their fandom’s attitude on social media. I have no opinion on their music but I cannot stand how they insist that their members are the only “it girls” that can exist to the point of slander against others who might be considered reaching that arbitrary status. This is, I admit, a very shallow reason to not like a group but their fandom really rub me the wrong way towards the group by association.

I think I see more of that fandom because of the group I like. I'm sure that the other fandoms can be as toxic, I just haven't had much experience in seeing it. I'm just answering as to why I'm negative or indifferent towards their stuff.

Yeah, I get what you're saying and I agree. If there's anything that kills my interest in kpop it's obnoxious fandom behavior. When I was more active on twitter and followed some kpop accounts I felt like people were just fighting over stupid poo poo all the time. The obsession with view counts and music show wins creates such a bad environment, it really just pits fandoms against each other.
