======
AIMERS – “Someone”
Apologies for lacking this within the final Rundown, particularly because it’s one of many higher releases. Want it leaned additional in to the rock vitality and gave the refrain one other gear, nevertheless it’s nonetheless an upbeat and enjoyable effort with some vitality to it. Greater than most can say.

Lim Hyunsik (BTOB) – “La Mar”
A rock ballad however one on the dreary and weepy facet of issues. I’m biased towards these tracks trigger I don’t wish to soundtrack these moods, however for many who do, this could match properly.

J.Y. Park, Stray Children, ITZY, NMIXX – “Like Magic”
A collab with Coke, it principally goes downhill after Lily stops singing.

TRI.BE – “Diamond”
I’ve had my fill of tracks with chill and relaxed vitality from pop teams to final a life time by now, however not less than the robust beat right here properly contrasts with the sentimental vibe and vocal supply. Unsure why the refrain must be delivered so tediously.

NOMAD – “No Stress”
I believed there was a refrain coming after the just about laughably repetitive “no strain no diamonds” factor, however no, that was the refrain. Would’ve been a good debut with nearly something higher on the topline.

RESCENE – “YoYo”
They’re proper on pattern of their pre-debut section when it comes to having one 19-year-old and the opposite 4 members with the typical age of 16 impressing netizens with their visuals, whereas having an easy-listening dreamy sounding deep home observe, although it’s greatest consumed within the beneath two minutes model as the official model drags.

Daesung – “Falling Slowly”
Onerous carries this along with his voice, because the tune itself is a bit drab and the blending was odd sounding.

ICHILLIN’ – “ON MY LIPS”
Scattershot manufacturing that feels empty, particularly contrasted with the shouty vocals, although nonetheless extra listenable to me than “Sizzling Sauce” not less than.
