Hello, everyone! I'm back to have as cheerful and safe a space as I can carve out on the internet! Fell off the face of the planet there for a moment, but I return to you with my August Wrap-Up! If you've never seen one of my posts before, as a hobby and to keep up to date myself on kpop releases, I write kpop reviews, keep track of music show wins, and also celebrate songs and groups because fans deserve a space without hostility (I recently ended up in kpop twitter because I was looking for some specific information, I very quickly backed out because yikes). And since I finally posted enough reviews in a month to warrant a wrap-up again, as well as finally having the motivation to do a Battle of the B-Sides post, here you go. This came via The Form. If you want to submit a song, now that I'm actively doing them again, I welcome suggestions. Big groups, small groups, soloists. Regular reviews, even. They'll go to the top of the backlog. I know that back a few months ago, I said I wasn't going to be posting the reviews individually on here anymore, and instead just post the monthly wrap-ups, but there may be some of you who have never seen my posts before. So, as a sample of my review style in case you're leery of reading anything in the wrap-up (because let's be real, I could in fact be a hater using this to bash on groups (I'm not, and any faults I find with a song have almost nothing to do with the group or artist, usually) and no one wants to read inflammatory words like that), I will offer the ones from the last week. Ideally what happens is you find a group or a song that wasn't on your radar that you start to love, which is kind of my goal in sharing these as a vehicle to your possible introduction. And make it as positive an introduction as I honestly can do. 8/27 IVE "XOXZ" Chanyeol (EXO) "Happy Accident" {Pre-Release} 8/28 ZZONE (Good Day/cignature) "Devil's Jam" {Debut} 8/29 Sunmi (Wonder Girls) "BLUE!" Lee Seokhoon "AFTER GROWING UP" Bada (S.E.S) "Love wave" 8/30 Lim Young Woong "Eternal Moment" 8/31 GIRLSET "Commas" {Debut} Soojin (i-dle) "BADITUDE" 9/2 Purple Kiss "DOREMI" TEMPEST "Unfreeze" Monsta X "N the Front" 9/3 BATTLE OF THE B-SIDES Stray Kids "MEGAVERSE" NCT Wish "COLOR" But wait! There's more! I put this together a few weeks ago as the start for a comprehensive K-Pop randomizer for myself. It's got over 3700 songs on it. I'm planning on doing a version 2 in a few months that's bigger and better, but in the meantime, I hope you find a song you've never heard of, but more than that, I hope you can use this as a resource however you'd like to use it. The Random K-Pop Wheel, at your disposal! Okay! Peace out! Thank you for your time and attention, even if you're not reading any of these. You're probably busy, and you're taking valuable time to read these words, even if you didn't actually make it down here to read them. So, thank you. I'll be back either for the September wrap-up, or the April one, whichever comes first. You're lovely! Have a lovely day/night/existence, whichever applies, and I'll see y'all next time! submitted by /u/Latter-Geologist2401 [link] [comments]
