It’s turn out to be frequent for idol acts to launch particular music movies after promotions finish for his or her title monitor. This enables the albums an extended cycle and spotlights varied sounds that will enchantment to a wider viewers. Fifty Fifty’s perky Pookie noticed them aiming straight for the pop jugular, however follow-up Midnight Particular presents a moodier sound.
“Moody” is just not briefly provide lately, as woman teams and boy teams alike appear to like “a vibe” greater than anything. With this in thoughts, Midnight Particular unfolds principally as you’d count on. When the beat isn’t shuffling softly, it pauses completely for moments of vocal highlight. Mild rhythm guitar anchors the refrain, giving a slight, subdued disco contact. The ladies’ vocals sound ethereal and hanging and I like when the manufacturing leans into its lush layering. However regardless of what number of Ok-pop songs of this fashion make their means into the market, they’ll all the time face an uphill battle with me. Midnight Particular wants both a knockout sequence of melodies or some idiosyncratic manufacturing flourish to face out. The music has neither, so it earns the doubtful (and doubtless overused) descriptor “nice.” Sadly, I simply don’t have a lot room for “nice” on my playlist.
