music mondays: 9.22.19

I realized I had a lot of videos to talk about for my normal news posts and with this week being a heavy comeback week as well, I thought doing a separate post would be best to keep the regular news post not as long. I’ve also been wanting to incorporate more music centered posts on the blog. I listen to a lot of music that most of my timeline doesn’t and am always wanting to promote it more. Maybe this will become a regular thing? I’ll keep these videos to music related or centered ones, and anything else (such as behind the scenes and interviews with actors) can end up on my regular news posts.

On to the videos!

-Super Junior released their ‘Somebody New’ music video to gear up for their comeback in October. I’m a long time fan, and I really liked this video as well as the song. It was nice seeing (almost) the entire group back together again after finishing up military.

-Radwimps released the (Weathering With You) movie edit version of ‘Festival’ featuring Miura.

-Dreamcatcher released ‘Deja Vu’, their song that was in collaboration with the game, King’s Raid. I’m not lying when I say I have been playing this on repeat every day. I love Dreamcatcher, and this song does not disappoint.

-The game developers also released a version of the song set to game scenes.

-Punch is always someone I consistently love their music, but ‘Sometimes’ takes the cake in my favorite types. Coffee house + R&B fusion. Love it.

-Sometimes the internet gives you wonderful things, and one of those is NCT ruining Twilight. This is part three in the series, and it’s fantastic even if you don’t follow NCT.

-Earlier this month Kenshi Yonezu released ‘Uma to Shika’. I’m late to the game with him, but I’m in love with this song and his voice.

-Monsta X released their self-cam MV of ‘Breathe for You’. I’ve always liked this song, and Monsta X is always adorable and awkward in their self-cam videos.

-Amber Liu has already released new music after leaving SM. ‘Hands Behind My Back’ is gorgeous and haunting. I really feel like this was the perfect step in transitioning into music not as an idol part of a major label.

-Yonige is a Japanese duo that I don’t follow closely, but have enjoyed their music in the past. They just released a music video in collaboration with the movie おいしい家族 (My Father the Bride, I think?). I really like the vibe of this song, it would be good for the summer.

-KARD released their newest single, ‘Dumb Litty’. I really like the song, I don’t know what about it really gives me some 2NE1 vibes. The video is also great.

-Youtube really gets me when it comes to music, and when Ai Higuchi’s ‘Zensen’ was in the recommended I knew that I would probably like it.
