Miss A - Touch [Review]

After waiting for what felt like forever, miss A have finally released their 4th mini-album titled 'Touch'. With a sexy new concept, we're excited to see what ths songs on the album are like.

The title song on the album is called 'Touch'. The video is both sexy and dark. The first thing that caught my eye was the choreography, which is rather unique. Initially I wasn't sure what to make of the song. But after listening to it the third time, it started to grow on me within the space of 15 minutes. You can hear the sadness in their voice even though the song is rather upbeat.

miss A - Lips

I could imagine this song being played in a club and raving to it. It sounds like a great song to dance to and I can imagine JYP giving them come awesome choreography to go with the song. The song has an interesting use of different instruments with make it catchy and energetic.


miss A - Rock and Rule

I actually expected this song to sound rather rock-ish so I was surprised when it was a pop song. The song doesn't sound too bad.


miss A - No Mercy

I've only heard this song once and it's got a pop-rock feel to it and I already feel like I know the rythm of the song.


miss A - Over U

I can't really find a genre which this song fits into. It sounds to me like a song a very Western song, apart from that fact that it is sung in Korea with a random splatter of English words. Lol.


I expected an awesome album by miss A and that is exactly what I got. I love the way miss A play with diferent genres of music and experiment with different styles. It makes me like the album a lot more as there is a variety of songs to suit my mood.

Miryo - MIRYO aka JOHONEY [Review]

Sorry about the lack of posts, we've been really busy lately so I haven't had the chance to post but we'll be flooding the blog with posts this week.

Over the last couple of weeks I have been addicted to Miryo's solo album 'MIRYO aka JOHONEY' and if you've had a listen to it you'll know who. Miryo is the rappy in Brown Eyed Girl and she has always been rated highly for her rapid and fluid rapping.

Miryo - Dirty

 
When I first watched the video I watched it with no sound so I thought the song would be quite a sad song that would sound a little eerie so I was pleasantly surprised when it was the opposite. This upbeat song is so catchy.

Miryo feat. Gary & The KOXX

'Party Rock' features Leessang's Gary and The KOXX. I absolutely love Leessang so I was expecting a lot from this song and it lived up to my expectations. I find myself dancing to this song all the time and I even set it as my ringtone. Haha~

Miryo feat. Sunny - I Love You, I Love You

A contrast from the other fast paced songs on this album, this song is mellow and soothing. Miryo's exceptional rapping complements Sunny's voice perfectly.
 
Miryo feat. Rude Paper - Revenger

Honeslty this is another amazing song on Miryo's album. Miryo's expressed a lot of emotion from her rapping which I really like. As well as this this, it has a bit of dubset which makes this song perfect for dancing to.

Miryo feat. Narsha - Leggo

This is the last track on the album and it is the cherry on top. Narsha is another member of Brown Eyed Girls. This second verse is my favourite.

All in all, this album is just pure perfection. To be totally honest, I cannot find fault in any of the songs on the album. I've played the whole album on repeat since it was released so I'd definitely recommend it to you guys~. ^^
