CLC - Like (MV Review)

6/2/2015

Well, it's Cute, but It's not my Fave...

           Stalkery, obsessive behavior is no better when it's framed with Aegyo than it is when framed by dark broodiness. It's still creepy as hell, and the fact that they not only stalk him, and invade his home, but also rifle through is underwear drawer is just plain stalker-creep of them. It's not cute, no matter how many plastic toys or foam-plushie kitty noses go into it... That said, I do still like this MV, though not entirely for it's own merit. It reminds me strongly of Kara's Wanna MV, which has a very similar concept, though I like the track for Wanna much better. Kara's MV is one I found perfectly acceptable when I watched it, but that's because in 2009 I was 16, and stalking the person I had a crush on seemed perfectly reasonable to my hormone-addled brain. Which it isn't. At all. And as a significantly more sane 22yr old, I'm appalled that I ever empathized with the idea... So I'm kinda ewwed out by this, worrying over how many teenagers are going to see it as an acceptable response to attraction...
           Aside from that I do love the styling in this, the whole comic-book pizzazz with sequins vibe is absolutely fabulous and I deeply enjoy all the street fashion that was worked in as well. In terms of the track, I actually find it annoyingly cutesy, considering how wonderfully they managed to avoid falling into that trap with their debut. This track does have it's appeal, it is well made and well balanced and it moves over a delightfully energetic beat with a strength that normally evades straight-up aegyo tracks. For an aegyo-focused song, there's no skimping or shirking, so it's actually a really good track. I just don't like it (There's absolutely no relation between how good a song is and how much I like it, they often correlate, but there's no legit connection). It's a solid comeback and it does good things for the Aegyo genre as a whole, so I'm quite pleased by the release and CLC is a band to watch!

Jang Hyunseung - Ma First (MV Review)

5/13/2015

0 Comments

 

Catchy, but a bit Confusing...

          HyunSeung has long been one of my very favorite human beings in show business, dating back to his time as a potential member of Big Bang. His work with BEAST and as a part of Trouble Maker has been fantastic, so I was totally hyped for his Solo. I wasn't disappointed. The track is hella catchy, the music video's styling is gorgeous, the choreo's killer... right up front there's so much awesomeness that I didn't know where to start when dissecting it. So I just watched it again, and then again, just to drink in the colors and the chic style. 
        That's when things began to get a bit iffy. The chorus is catchy, but it's really simple. That's not necessarily a negative, but the simplicity of the chorus allowed me to focus on they lyrics and more importantly on their translation. The first thing that confused me is the fact that 처음이야 translates to 'being first' but not as in 1st Place, instead it means something more like 1st Crush. Which I guess is applicable, based on the overly devoted reaction and the day-dreaming histrionics in the rest of the song, but personally I found the phrasing to lend itself to a different meaning: rather than "you're the first girl I've ever had a crush on" it seems more like the lyrics want to say "you're first among all women, best of the best", but I'm pretty sure the word for that kind of first is 먼저이야... That could just be my inexperience in Korea with either winning things or with being anyone's first, but it still confused me. Again, that could just be me.
          There were a few other things that confused me about the release, this time though it was the MV that was confusing. The order of events is really unclear and I couldn't really tell what was a dream and what was really happening... My final interpretation is that NOTHING actually happened. The suave slick style of the flirty HyunSeung seems to me more of an idealized sort of imaginary play-by-play, something like a shower scenario where you rehearse what you're going to say to the pretty girl that, in reality, you're never actually going to talk to. The psychosis HyunSeung displays in his apartment (the writing on the walls, the erratic behavior, the crazy hair) seems to support that theory. Nothing at all that happens in HyunSeung's apartment is plausibly real, other than the fact that he's going more than a bit crazy. It is possible, I suppose, that it's all real, since the girl appears in his apartment at the end, seemingly wearing the shirt he wore to the club, but its much more likely that none of it's real. The fact that HyunSeung wants her so much makes it more plausible that he doesn't get her.
           The choreo is powerful and impressive. It's not my favorite aesthetic, but it's suitable for the vibe that the sets and styling provide. The fact that it's full of abrupt and jarring movements plays off the confusion in the rest of the MV as well as with the sharp spins in the track. As for the track itself, the beat is energetic and HyunSeung's smooth vocals slide through the mix with an edgy attitude that's as catching as the track. If you can listen to this  as you walk and not strut down the street, I'd be impressed. Giriboy's rap is an addition I didn't initially like (simply because I always love when JunHyung helps out his bandmates) but having seen JunHyung get a LOT of focus in 2014 for being just a bit too omnipresent in Beast's releases and in those of other bands... it was nice to see HyungSeung on his own with a rapper from a different source providing the necessary featured appearance.
            Over all I really do enjoy this release. The chorus does become a bit grating after a dozen listens right in a row, but still, over all, it's a fabulous track. The MV is pretty awesome too, being aesthetically gorgeous and deeply interesting in terms of story lines. Also, HyunSeung was adorable in the BTS reel.

I Give it an 8/10: Fabulous!

CLC - Pepe (MV Review)

3/31/2015

Cute, Classy, and Very Cool.

          "Crystal Clear" is an odd name to condense to CLC, but whatever, it's certainly not the strangest name in Kpop. CLC is a good, easy to remember, roll-off-the-tongue kind of name, so it works. I think this group has a great chance of success for many reasons, starting off with the fact that the classy-cute but full of attitude vibe suits the generalized production vibe of CUBE Entertainment. A-Pink deviates significantly from the party line expected from a CUBE artist so I'm not surprised that their cutesy debut came very close to flopping. They've since recovered beautifully, but it was a worrisome situation. BtoB was fell into line more with A-Pink than with Beast or 4 Minute and they've never been used to their full potential. CLC is much more what I would have expected from a Cute Concept Group from CUBE than anything else they've orchestrated.
           There's plenty of aegyo and innocence and high smoothe vocals, but there's also a lot of sass and synth overlay that add energy and interest to the whole release. It's pop-y and peppy and perfectly cute, while being sharp synthed and pumped with bright energy enough to show off an undercurrent of aggressive confidence, the sort that comes from a self-awareness of being awesome. The sassy-ass hair-flips are the prime example, being sudden sharp movements laced within the sugary-sweet oohs and aahs and smooth 'shy' shoulder shrugs. The track itself back up the attitude-but-adorable vibe, being filled with sweet high notes carried off by strong, full-bodied vocals that haven't been squished by cute-i-fication. The backing instrumentals are quirky and set at a nice mid-level that keeps the baseline feeling light, but still allows the high notes to shine as quite a stretch.
            The video is fabulous, on all counts. The visuals of the settings are unique and identifiable without being so bizarre that they don't mesh with the rest of the genre. The styling is classy and cutesy, the sports-wear being off-set by pastel pinks for cute-ness, and skin-tight elements in classic black that bring in the sexy and sensual while still being somewhat reserved and the non-coordinate sports-wear is off-set by the aegyo-acting. The classy little-black-dress outfits are off-set by the fluffy skirts, the pale-paneling, and the adorable cheerleader ponytails. The choreography is flawless, paired perfectly with the flow of the track, meshed well into the styling, and captured perfectly by the camera's movements. There's enough glamour shots to start learning the differences between the the members and then at the end the helpful snapshots allow us to put names to the faces we've begun to learn. I like how the names come at the end rather than the beginning (like in many debut MVs) because in the beginning, I don't know the differences in the faces well enough to able to identify them as the video progresses. But after watching them for a few minutes? The names actually stick.
              All in all, this is a fantastic release and a fabulous debut. I'm delighted with what they've got right now and I'm excited about their release prospects for the future.

4 Minute - Crazy (MV Review)

2/10/2015

WEll, Crazy's definitely the right word for it.

        I like the stab at a sort of mainstream hip hop for these girls. They've always been on the lovely border between the synth-y bright melodic pop that got kpop kickstarted and the hard and fast hip hop that really got the ball rolling for it in the modern era (I've said before that they're halfway between 2NE1 and WonderGirls, though 4Min has always been my favorite of the three). 
        This isn't what I was expecting from them, and the first time I heard it was was a bit disappointed with how mainstream it felt, totally lacking their usual melodic push or their colorful quirkiness. It's still not my favorite, but the elegant matahari flair of it makes up for a lot. The subtle introduction of color could have continued until the whole MV was in full color, which I would have appreciated because the BTS footage makes the styling look to die for. I think there could also have been a more powerful chorus, because the vamp is fantastically energetic and it just kind of falls flat into the chorus. Fortunately, that chorus is pretty catchy, even if it doesn't zing with the vibrancy of a masterwork, I'm certain that I'll be stuck in my head for a long while yet to come. 
        The choreography is fun and fluid and it really goes well with the vibe of the video, and it moves perfectly to the beat and evolution of the music. But what really captures me is the hat-thing. We use eyes and hairstyles to identify our Kpop superstars, because the rest of their styling changes so often (teaser pics to show us what hair color / length / shape we're looking for in connection to a name). The hats in this video are interesting because they way they're used takes away our access to the girls' eyes, but in giving us specific labels, the hats also help us ID the very girls we can't ID on our own. It's a really interesting look at Identity, particular when taken into account along with the fact that the lyrics discuss finding a 'hidden self'. Also, one of the main causes thought to be responsible for what we call insanity is, at its most simplified, an identity crisis.
Still, since it is just a dance-on-a-set MV, it can't score terribly high marks from me, but even so it grabs a lot of points.



And seriously, just LOOK at how awesome the BTS footage makes the styling seem...

4 Minute - Cold Rain (MV Review)

2/9/2015

Pretty As A Picture, with just as much movement...

        I was honestly going to skip Cold Rain, electing to go straight to Crazy, but I decided a short review wouldn't kill me. I adore 4 Minute and this is a gorgeous MV, visually at least. The track is lovely, well-done though it's not my favorite. It's fairly well-rounded and it moves fluidly though its paces in patterns that the human brain recognizes even if you've never heard the song. It's nice, but nothing special.
        The MV is gorgeous, filled with beautiful shots of the girls all glammed up. Almost every frame makes for a fabulous screen cap. I've got a lot of problems with it though, because despite how pretty it is, nothing really happens. At all. If you've read any of my other reviews, you'll know that one thing I can't stand is an MV where nothing happens. So this one, pretty as it is, can't earn many points from me.

I give it a 3/10: I've Seen Worse.

G.NA - G.NA's Secret (MV Review)

5/15/2014

0 Comments

 

Not What I was Hoping For...

First off, I'm very confused about why the official English translation is G.NA's Secret... 예쁜 속옷 translates to "pretty underwear" which makes the MV make way more sense than if it really meant G.NA's secret. That's not really any sort of issue, but it does bother me. Anyway, this is not my favorite release of G.NA's. She has incredible vocal range and the sort of lung capacity and vocal power that even seasoned singers swoon over. And this song . . . really doesn't show it. And more than that, this song is just plain... bland. It's not so much generic as it is featureless. It's pretty and smoothe, but with a name like pretty lingere, you'd think there'd be something a little more distinctive about it... The vocal range is less than an an octave, and the background instrumental spread is a little less than twice that: in other words, the song is just incredibly narrow. There's zero drama in it, it sounds weak and thin and there's almost no progress or evolution. The song just doesn't really go anywhere that feels like it's worth going to. It's okay in terms of background music, but that's really what it sounds like: a lovely little non-distracting track meant to play during a kdrama montage. The lyrics have a sense of drama in them when you read them, and none of it comes through in the track.

The video too is fairly disappointing. It's pastel AND desaturated, making it look washed out and dull. The plot is thin at best and the creepy store clerk contributes nothing of value. It's just boring. I could see it coming from a rookie group, or even some of the less popular groups paired with low-budget production teams, but for G.NA . . . this is just tragic. She, and CUBE, can do legions better that this.

Oh YeRi - Because Of You (MV Review)

11/24/2013

Lovely.

        The idea of moving pictures and a frozen real-life is a fabulous one and here it's been brilliantly pulled off. The MV is absolutely gorgeous and the track is as well. YeRi's voice is gorgeous and it sits neatly inside the song, which has been beautifully spatialized to envelope listeners. The track builds beautifully, drawing up the angst and tension as the story evolves. It draws to a gorgeous release and even gives listeners a few breaths to calm down with before coming to a sweet and smoothe cadence. Beautifully done.

Trouble Maker - Chemistry (Music Review)

11/22/2013

Picture
NOTES: So the MV's being criticized as having copied Rihana's and I can completely see where it's coming from, but at the same time, We Found Love is a terrible song, so I don't mind at all that Trouble Maker took the idea and made it a million times better. It's sweet and sexy and daringly sensual in all the ways that Trouble Maker is meant to be. The draws on the Dark Knight are also quite fabulous. My only comment on the whole of it is that HyunSeung looks way too skinny, like dangerously, scarily, skinny. Hyuna looks skinny too, but not quite to the extent that HyunSeung does... They've both looked better in Lives than in the MVs so, I'm hoping that it was a diet to get into character as half-dead-druggies, because that's what they looked like . . .

Top Track: I Like

Final Score: 7.5/10


Overall, this EP isn't quite what I'd hoped for, but it proves the rule that one great track can make up for several lack-luster ones. The title track is lovely and the final track is absolutely fabulous, and Attention fun. It's not what I expected from Trouble Maker, but I'm not disappointed.



Also, the choreography is fabulous: Sexy, Smoothe, and Straight-up Scandalous in all the right ways.
(not to mention the fact that these two sexy idiots, and really the whole of their ridiculous crew, are just down-right adorable...)

Promotional Track:

Now definitely doesn't have the same sort of aggressively catchy hook as Trouble Maker, but it doesn't fall too short of the mark. It has a beautifully smoothe melody, though I wouldn't be able to recognize it on shuffle quite as quickly as I can their first title. It moves really well, and over all, I actually like it better than their first. The melodic lines suit their voices fabulously and mix them beautifully; I particularly love how Hyuna holds the lower line for a lot of it, the exact reversal of most co-ed duos. It finishes off with a nice echo as well.

I Give it an 8/10: Fabulous!

Additional Tracks:

Turn Up the Volume, like a lot of the tracks on Chemistry, surprised me. It's very chill, laid back in a way that I was not expecting Trouble Maker to promote. I like the track's sound, it moves nicely over the beat, and the spatialization is interesting (being that only HyunSeung's line had a choral effect layered in and Hyuna's was made to sound incredibly sharp and clear). No real build though, or energy or power; it's still lovely, but it not amazing.
The Girl Who Wants to Play also came as something of a surprise, less so than Turn Up the Volume, but still. HyunSeung's last Trouble Maker solo is leagues above this one. Amurut was easily one of last year's best songs. In comparison, this one is nothing much to get excited about. On it's own, it's rather lovely, a nice chill track with fabulous rhythms and fantastic spatialization. It's really quite lovely, but it just doesn't have the power of Amurut.
    Also, there's something distinctly awkward about having a song on a duo's special unit album be a 'solo' for one of the duo that features the other... I enjoy that Hyuna wrote the lyrics and helped with the composition, but it still felt really weird having her on the 'solo' track with Hyunseung when it could have just been another track listed as a Trouble Maker duet.
Attention is another interesting track, of the duets, it's the one that feels most organically Trouble Maker to me. There's the unapologetic aggression, the confidence to make a target swoon, and of course the sexy-slick sax. As a track it's tremendous fun. There's no real build and it doesn't feel much like it goes anywhere as it progresses, and the lyrics are pretty empty on their best day, but it's a great party track; sassy and sexy and just plain fun.
I Like is easily the best track on the EP. I was quite surprised to see Flowsik featured: as a Special Unit, it feels to me like Trouble Maker's tracks should essentially be just Trouble Maker. Having an outside come in on a Unit group . . . it just feels strange. At the same time, Flowsik and Hyuna are quite the epic pair (honestly the way their voices mesh and mix and meld through the music almost overshadows the Trouble Maker pair). I can feel a lot of Flow's Aziatix background in the track, the under layers of independent energy and vibrancy (It makes me think of Say Yeah, most distinctly, the unapologetic fun of going crazy). I also feel the sexy-smoothe side of Hyuna's Trouble Maker aura coming through strongly in the delightfully melodic sighs that make gorgeous sliding leaps between pitches. It's panned beautifully and has a steady build and a decent drop, so I am quite pleased with it.

I Give them a 7/10: Me Gusta.

APINK - U You (MV Review)

9/21/2013

AEGYO AT It's Finest!

                This was my favorite song off the Secret Garden EP. It's well constructed and catchy. The melody is a high-line adorable thing filled with the girlish innocence that Aegyo tracks are known for, while at the same time having an energetic spunk that give the whole track a much more engaging feel than most of the other tracks on this release. It's just a fun song that's easy to sing along to.
                 Speaking of singing along, I loved the karaoke-sub aspect. The font was adorable and it was fun to attempt to read fast enough through them to keep up with the lyrics, though that may have just been me. Otherwise, the MV was just plain fun to watch. The girls goofing off could make anyone smile. It's not a terribly deep video, but it's not trying to be. All it's attempting to achieve is to make Pink Pandas, and other viewers alike, smile. Which I think it did perfectly. It's one of the only Aegyo-centered MVs this summer that didn't make me roll my eyes.

Also, I'm sorry about the sudden lag in posting. My 21st birthday was on Monday and this week has been full of festivities (and then with catching up on school-work ignored due to said festivities...). I have a back log that I'll be posting this weekend, and then I will be back on track and posting as releases are actually released.

I give this MV a 7/10: Me Gusta.

Beast - Hard to Love, How to Love (Music Review)

7/24/2013

0 Comments

 
Picture
Notes: This release was a cool genre expansion for them, but I thought it felt a bit unbalanced to me, JunHyung had a LOT of lines, not that I really have problem with it. I would love to hear Hyunseung rap though, like really rap, and Yoseob too possibly with bouncing call & response lines to help them keep rhythm with JunHyung like YooChun & JaeJoong had in Been so Long...

Top Track: Intro & Encore

Top Track Notes: I like it best when it's hard to choose. I picked two this time because Intro's only a minute and a half so I'm calling it a partial song. The next on my list is easily How to Love and then I'm Sorry. Over all, a great release.

Final Score: 8.5/10

Promotional Track:

Shadow is a solid track. There's an impressive use of harmony, elegant counterpoint. The melody sits high in the listener's awareness but the fill supports it well and the gritty beat keeps everything grounded. Rhythmically it slides along with a sort of smoothe regularity that's broken up by decorations that compound and lead the song to develop well. It's fluid and incredibly catchy, as expected from these fabulous guys. Haunting and beautiful and yet still it's still just a fun track to have playing at a party.

I give it an 8/10: Fabulous!

Other tracks:

Intro has a sweet multi-dimensional beat. It's beautifully spatialized and the chant-vocals contrast nicely with the rap. The rhythms develop energetically, and the dedication is just lovely. Bad ass Gregorian monks meet SPN & Buffy at Boys in the Hood. I feel like a cherished little princess and a kick ass evil sorceress / demon slayer at the same time.
How to Love is soft and sweet. I like the pseudo raps Yoseob and DooJoon had with JunHyung double-tracked for support and actually I just love the double-tracked-other-voices in general. Sometimes it's support (as in the raps) and others it's for harmonic interest and it really works well. The oohs in the bridge slows it all down without putting the breaks on the melody. It all just flows together in a smoothe & polished track.
Be Alright starts off very refreshingly. It then slides right into the synth-heavy R&B Beast does oh so well. Again, the double-tracking and the harmonic decorations are layered in fantastically. It makes the singer-transitions seamless. Lyrically this one doesn't evolve as well as the others, but it's catchy as hell and you can sing along by the second chorus.
I'm Sorry was not my favorite as a single. I think mainly it just wasn't what I was expecting. I took a while to warm up to Beautiful Night when that came out of the blue too, and that's one of my favorite songs from last year. This one has already started to grow on me. It feels very summertime chill, late night poolside in a fancy resort with a broken heart and a sweet cabana boy willing to open up some liquid courage, after hours and free of charge (I'm aware that it has next to nothing to do with the lyrics, but I'm a writer and that is the fic I would put to this). Track wise it's not exceptional, but it is constructed well and it has significant harmonic interest, & like all Beast songs worth talking about (which is quite frankly almost all of them), it has a great sense of space and energy.
Will You Be Alright  kept up the cabana boy idea in my head. Maybe I just really need a vacation, preferably with Beast on a beach in the middle of nowhere, but that's really what is sounds like to me. A little country-western twang was thrown in under the main melody too, some of the guitar decorations are very country. The track isn't incredible, but it's nice relaxing music that is melodically interesting enough to really listen to. I would not be surprised to hear it in a drama OST.
You're Bad initially reminded me of an acoustic-rock Fiction, but that only lasted a few seconds. The stretch in the chorus contracts nicely into the second verse and the rap bounces in with cool flair and out with the same smoothe swag. The bridge feels like it slows down, using the same trick from How to Love but the drums here bring up the energy before it settles.
Encore wraps it all up with spark and sass. It's great fun and energetic, the high synths bounce through it and the mid-line vocals just float. The lower lines fill it out and mesh harmonically with the high trills and the bass is just fabulous. The one thing is . . . someone should have told them that Encore is a French word and instead of pronouncing it 'An-core' it's 'On-core'. Usually the Engrish doesn't bother me, but this one kinda does for some reason. *shrugs*

I give them a 9/10: Blissful!
