news

i have no time but what fun is blogging following a schedule! scrolling through ig:

(sic)boy released a mv for “afraid??” and i already love the song but the mv is also beautiful. gif later. watch it here it has beautiful city shots and such a lovely color palette and interesting looking ppl so cool!

i thought colde debuted an idol group under pyrat lol but it’s just a bunch of self-producing good-looking young guys. the only thing it has in common with kpop is the inconsistency between verse (soundcloud trap) and hook/chorus style (singing but idk). they’re called 0wave (young-wave, young=영=0). here’s their song. they sound too raw to be signed, idk what colde has planned but interesting.

owen, who seems to make everyone work with him, asked hongwon, who never officially features with anyone anymore, for a featuring lol. maybe as a joke idk

corbyn released a new song+mv “cold”

kitsyojii released ollaganda 2 and i didn’t even know!! btw he’s my #1 artist on wrapped. also released a song + mv with since! & it seems he’s still on smtm, going up fr this time maybe?? i wonder if hd bl4ck and marginchoi are not allowed to produce outside of lbnc haha i was worried but it’s hecop so all good! he’s kind of as productive as leella, making a full album with each producer friend and a collab album with each rapper friend!

luci gang released “seoul survival tips” v oldschool you should listen to her if you haven’t!

i’m not following smtm, there are some snippets but they sound like pop songs and funk and i’m so sorry i don’t like funk hmm but i’ll just keep listening to other music

the quiett and gist are in qatar being sponsored and just hanging out (also watching soccer i guess)

pretty much everyone is working with baund/the:rise now but i’m too lazy to see what it’s all about. croco91, nfl, ranchia&m3chvnic, friemilli, bando boys, mighty lynx + someone i forgot (they really collected any underground crew who agreed huh :D)

ASIAN PIRATES(RAU DEF, SKOLOR) "NO REST" ft. Tade Dust & Bonbero (Prod. D3adStock)  single & mv released! subs in japanese and korean. skolor has better connections in jhiphop than khh now good for him :D don’t always love his solo songs, but jhiphop collabs always! remember only!

big naughty won some award and hongwon hating in the comments lolll when he’s on insta he’s so the opposite of the person who writes his lyrics xD also funny that everyone just ignores him when he attacks ppl here & there now & then :D

another smtm snippet, it sounds like a nice pop song with rap elements well khan is doing really well! i’m glad ppl are finally seeing his talent!

apparently there’s a trend where dudes wear a tight black shirt / is it a sports bra the wrong way around?? / that shows their boobs

rm released an album and some khh ppl are on it, but i’m not interested enough to go listen

ateez ep came out. some japanese songs, remixes that kind but it’s really nice. guerilla rock version, but i didn’t even notice the original guerilla wasn’t rock it’s so nice and strong :D eden says they have a new producer too.

d.ark went on mic swg and he’s really so good! i’m glad that even though everyone has been giving him hard times since forever, his skills are growing wonderfully <3

hiphople interviewed ek who got signed to some label. cmon like by now we know he’s problematic in all kinds of ways, why... anyway

today until here, 1 hour passed like this and i should be sleeping already :D

Walk promotion

I think because of MarkHyuk being busy with Dream, there are no track videos for "Walk".

Overall, they stick to the concept of hip-hop and oldschool. The two album versions (we got introduced to so far) are done in CD and Music Magazine styles. There is a lenticular card. Unfortunately, there wasn't put much creative effort in the layout of the albums (like interviews, decorations in form of scribbles or lyrics atop of photographs). I mean, the design of what I see in previews looks clean, just very common. An album with photos of the members in new clothes, nothing more. (aespa's clothes and futuristic/cosmic/alien/mecha concepts are exciting and interesting to collect, with 127 the "newness" ended with Regular-Irregular, perhaps).

There are reels/tiktoks, but they are not shot in "viral/challenge" manner. Thereby they follow the concept of "back in the old days" as well.

On X and YT the promotional roll-out doesn't fill cohesive or continious that much, but it's because the main platform is NCT 127's IG, the teasers were designed for the IG format. There you get the needed vibe of the comeback (even the pictures released look better there than on X due to the scroll function). The promotion started June 24th and has a good linear structure with an announcement, a recap, an introduction, "magazine topics", interviews of the day, group interviews, animated medleys, and such. The previews of YT content is well made.

The concept is on a chill vibe side, so it's not as dramatic as was Favorite (with the vampire love story) or flashy as Fact Check (Doyoung as a water deity, Jaehyun as a Soul ripper of sorts), however, so far it is better executed (considering they had 1-2 days with MarkHyuk to shoot all the content for IG). This IG promotion is definitely better than Seoul Party that had no connection to its comeback (I can't even recall which one it was), especially in budget vs results department.

If "Walk" is a banger, and there will be a post-release series of whole group content, than I will count the promotion as wholesome.

One thing is missing though. The lore. The creative team behind NCT was low on it in recent comebacks. We need the lore back!

Call me weird but if I ever go to Seoul, one of the first things I want to do is go to the Myeongdong Cathedral, plug in my earphones and play Yang Soo Kyung's "그대는" (You) while I walk up the steps.

In honour of this MV, the fantastic song and artist.

And also because I feel like I have seen so much of 80s and 90s Seoul in the media that I feel like I won't be able to experience my personal connection with Seoul. I want the record and vinyl shop, the bus station, the 100 won coins, the payphones, the department stores, the little clothes shops in Dongdaemun, knowing very well that they're from an era long bygone and not to be found anymore. The buildings and that road in the background probably look so much different today, while I will know how they look like, timeless landmarks like the Myeongdong Cathedral are probably the only places I'll recognise from the popular media I consume.

Meddle Pink Floyd in 1971... I was 2 years old... i start to follow this group when I knew 'the wall' and I was 14.. after that I decide to understand better about them going back in history.. and it was an extraordinary experience and journey. The divorce between Roger Waters was a trauma but at the end Gilmour, Wright and Mason had an extraordinary restart i think and i continued to follow with enthusiasm and love... Roger was an extraordinary player anyway but I prefer to follow the whole group even with some sound changing, and i learn to appreciate them more and more... By the way the old school is always something I cannot forget and love it more with a bit of melancholy. . . . #pinkfloyd #oldschool #rock #meddle #psychedelicsound #oldsound #70srock #musicilove #myearlyyears #lovingmusic #pinkfloydsound #britmusic #oneofthesedays #apillowofwinds #fearless #santropez #seamus #echoes (presso Seoul, Korea) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-vpISkHg7a/?igshid=34eizkkzb1zd
