Asian Music Chat Thread

Found your comment riv heh. He's Swedish apparently, interesting.

I'm not a fan of sports so didn't notice this at all my self but apparently AoA are doing Exos thing of mixing sports up. Kpop really does love to have lots of MVs/Songs follow some concept all at the same time, so maybe the current concept is mixing sports up xD

From reddit:
"Why were the male cheerleaders all wearing NBA jerseys at a Lacrosse game?"

[Rivellana]

I need some help, I've been putting songs in my Itunes library so I can burn a CD for my upcoming car trip, but it's sitting at about 3 male songs for every 1 female song. I need recommendations for semi-recent female songs that aren't that different from the type of music linked. http://i.imgur.com/1KGV53R.png?1

Do you like f(x)?

[Rivellana]

Do you like f(x)?

I do! I forgot about that one. Will add it, thanks. Anything else that maybe came out near the end of last year that I might have missed? I went through this thread from January until now a few weeks ago.

[BHD]

Can't believe I hated Red Light when it first got out

I can't believe you hated it either, it's so great

[BHD]

It might not fit your list but there's Laboum



Other than that the only girl stuff from late 2014 that I can think of are Hyuna's Red, EXID's Up&Down and IU's Sogyeokdong. Most are july-october though so not even that late in the year :/

my fav girl releases this year maybe you like some of them

Cupid has scrobbled almost 200 times now, although under 2 different tags because lastfm hates hangul apparently. Pretty damn sure cupid has shot my heart by now

[Anakso]

Even though Kara is my favorite group, Cupid is just average tbh.

Come to think of it, other than Ark, Fiestar I feel that entire list is kinda meh. Bestie is OK as well.

Shake that Brass was just plain awful. The best part about that song is that the MV had Ellin in it lol.

[Anakso]

The MV had lots of people in it, including since we mentioned him recently Busker Buskers brad
I liked most of them, tbh the worst song on that list to me is Fiestars I just linked it because she might like it

[Raicky]

Lol, I liked You're pitiful more than all their previous releases actually.



Probably the best thing that got released late last year other than Up and Down.

[Anakso]

Purfles need to come back soon :<

- - - Updated - - -

Went to find something about Secret Weapon, Her to link Asme in steam and found the trailer. Hadn't seen the trailer before.



Doesn't really give much info but cool to see them all there at least.

[Raicky]

Their facebook page stopped posting stuff months ago last time I checked. Reddit keeps saying they're still together tho.

- - - Updated - - -

Well, Jei looks stunning. Hopefully there's someone to sub it.

EXID gets chosen as the next group for Showtime and the guy who was subbing all the But But TV stuff stopped doing it. SMH

[Anakso]

Yea I saw people on reddit say they're still updating their fan cafe but that doesn't always mean they're still together unfortunately.

Did he stop doing it because of EXID or coincidence? I expect it'll be subbed by someone else anyway I'm sure it'll be on Ktopia at some point. When does EXIDs showtime start if it hasn't already.

[Raicky]

I remember him posting a while back that he's in touch with Yedang to see if he can sub their official videos rather than him reuploading them on his channel. Also he posted a tweet recently saying that he's making all his subbed videos private till he gets a response from Yedang. I'm guessing those two things are connected somehow.

Reddit says there was some clash with Korean fans which might be more accurate than my conspiracy theory :P

They haven't announced the date yet but its supposed to be early july.

[Anakso]

Oh so he hasn't stopped he's just in talks to do it officially? Or has he stopped likely due to their response?

Clash with Korean fans as in something like "booo don't sub our stuff"? o.o

[Rivellana]

IU - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7PoMDw18qs
Oh My Girl - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCrCUv6rQ7I
Red Velvet - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glXgSSOKlls
Lovelyz - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbnRfBGjeaw
miss A - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO9RzrhYR-I

I totally forgot about Oh My Girl! Will add them too. I might or might not add Red Velvet, not sure yet. Their stuff is OK to me but not superb. Not a fan of IU or Lovelyz, really, the music styles are too different from what I normally listen to. That miss A song was already in the playlist. :P

It might not fit your list but there's Laboum

Laboum is meh. Might have to add Red and Up & Down, though.

I like Gain, but not sure about the sound of that song mixed in with the rest of what I'm going for. Might add the Blady song and CLC Pepe, other than that, I realized most of the other ones just sound pretty much the same as each other. It's kind of depressing. Oh, that Purfles song is pretty good too.

Thanks for the suggestions guys!

I hope not...that would make me look down on them. Like, why would you stop someone from sharing with international fans? It's not like English speakers take Beyonce or Chris Brown or whoever it is that Korea really loves and go "NO KOREAN SUBS FOR YOU!".

[Anakso]

I can see some similarities with some of them but Dejavu, Shake that Brass and The Light don't sound anything like each other or the rest!

[Rivellana]

Ok...Sonamoo I'm not a fan of, Amber...I'd prefer to hear her singing over rapping an entire song, and The Light is just a sad video and I don't like sad videos. I hear the song and think of the video and then get sad.

That actually reminds me...I saw a "fun fact" yesterday that said Victoria and Amber learned Korean through watching Pororo the Little Penguin. Now I'm actually considering that...

[Anakso]

I've never heard of that before what is it? A children s show?

[Rivellana]

Yes. I know there's a Korean version with English subs floating around somewhere but I can't find it. All I can seem to find on YT that is organized is English version, or random episodes Korean with no subs and not organized.
