[MONTHLY] Favorites for MARCH 2021

Catching up with monthly posts part 3.

March was pretty good for pop/idol stuff. Made both top spots for the month. BDC's 'MOON RIDER' feels like a classic catchy boy band jam. Also like the point choreo right at the end of the chorus evoking crescent moon shapes. Old-school simplicity to it. And we got God Sejeong back with a fun little pop song. I think lIlBOI's rap verse is the weak-point of the song, but overall it's a nice track.

Weeekly's 'After School' was pretty strong. Rap verses also the weak-point on that one. Loved Seori and U SUNG EUN's for stuff outside of idol releases.

In the full post: General SSO/KURO, iKON, MAKTUB, Punch/Real.be, Dreamcatcher, PURPLE KISS, PENTAGON, WOODZ, Weeekly, Seori, YOUHA, U SUNG EUN, Earth Kim, IU, HARRIANNE, and WJSN.

[MV] BTS - Butter (Eng.)

I like it! Fun. Good energy. I think its hook is less catchy than Dynamite, but I prefer this track overall. Feels more like K-Pop to me. Vocal production issues are still present, but more selective like they were through BE. So like it's really noticeable on Jin and V's vocals, but minimal to none on everyone else. Jin's voice especially is being pushed too high and compressed to hell. Really loving Jungkook's vocals!

[MV] ENHYPEN - FEVER

[MV] YUQI - Bonnie & Clyde (Eng.)

Song is pretty tight.

[MV] TRI.BE - RUB-A-DUM

[MV] aespa - Next Level

Can't decide which one I hate more between this one and ITZY's Mafia. Lol.

There is one section of this Frankenstein track that is obviously Yoo Youngjin's influence. The more jazzy bit. I think I could be into that as a full song even if it's nearly a copy of TVXQ's Something. Otherwise, I can't get into any of this.

[MV] Rocket Punch - Ring Ring

Super synthy 80s throwback, so of course I like it. XD

[MV] fromis_9 - WE GO

[MV] Huh! (feat. Kim Nongmill, BLOO) - business boy

Nice vibes on this. I really like the bluesy-rock instrumental.

Gotta appreciate rappers who aren't tuning the hell out of their voices these days and just have naturally interesting tone.

[OST] Dreamcatcher - Shadow

Video is a touch violent/bloody due to mutants/zombies.

From the 'Dark Hole' OST.

The 'du du du da-dooo' part in the chorus was played in the teasers and it made be think of SNSD's 'Galaxy Supernova' so now I can't unhear that even though the rest of the song is totally different. XD

[MONTHLY] Favorites for FEBRUARY 2021

Catching up with monthly posts, part 2.

The top picks for February were the two tracks that got stuck in my head relentlessly, but I have yet to tire of them. I can see CIX's 'Cinema' making it all the way to my end-of-the-year favorites list. Just absolutely love this thing. Solid pop song. And then yeah... the animated anthropomorphic rabbit. Feel kinda weird about picking APOKI, but I love the singer's vocal tone and the catchiness of 'GET IT OUT' is just undeniable.

In the full post: MOVNING, SE SO NEON, HyunA, BULGOGIDISCO, SIA, LUCY, SWJA/Dear Jazz Orchestra, KISSXS, KEEMBO, IMLAY/Chenle, SURAN, ONF, SUNMI, WONHO, Narae Lee, and BIG Naughty/JAMIE.
