Two random questions!!
1. Feelings on 2ne1’s “I Love You”? I think it’s in the vein of love island pop you’ve been talking about!!
2. Favorite song from Somi’s new mini album? I’ve been so happy bc there are some awesome dance songs in the bsides too !!!
I am actually so uneducated on 2nd gen kpop its crazy - like i love snsd, shinee, and f(x) but in terms of literally everyone else i am so clueless, so i loveeee recs for 2nd gen!!
I have actually never heard 'I love you' by 2ne1 before today, but from first impressions, i think its a really cool song. it places a lot of emphasis in the prechoruses and the verses just as much as the chorus, which is very unexpected as a lot of modern kpop songs are quite top heavy in that the chorus is the only attention grabbing part. I really like that, and the melodies are super timeless too. the production is really cool too - ive been thinking a lot about how repetitive the retro trend was a couple years ago, and how everyone just used the weeknd's synth sample pack and called it a day, but this song is honestly more 80s than pretty much anything else ive heard in kpop.
for it being in my dumbass 'love island pop' genre, im not actually sure. I think a lot of the elements are there, like fun but not overcomplicated vocal melodies, repeated lyric motifs, synths with rising tension, but i think the crux of why i dont think its love island pop is because imo its more 80s synthpop than 00s/10s EDM/house. And its funny bc i can see exactly where ive been misleading lol. Somi's 'fast forward' does absolutely have retro influences, but what i think makes it love island pop is the chorus referencing the EDM songs that the USA had stopped doing half a decade ago. I'll deffo do a playlist post and define this genre properly lol
ANYWAY, for what my favourite song on somi's new mini album. I really dont like 'gold gold gold', i just KNOW teddy pulled this one out of the rejected lisa solos hard-drive. Its just so unredeemable? Obviously I love 'fast forward', which is apparently a hot take, but genuinely i cant get enough of this song, there is not a dull moment ITS SO GOOD. 'Fxxked' is honestly quite love island pop too, its a super fun song, it fits somi so well. 'pisces' is like 'sour grapes' 2.0, its enjoyable, but a little bit less exciting in comparison to the other tracks. 'The way' is a through-and-through kpop retro song with a somi edge, its very fun. I still think 'fast forward' is my favourite off of the album, but 'The way' is probably my fave b-side, with 'fxxked' being a close contender.
