I’ll at all times take a look at Ok-pop’s “nugu” teams as a result of typically their music will take extra dangers than their bigger-named friends. Nevertheless, these efforts are additionally constrained by finances, making the execution a bit chaotic at occasions. I didn’t look after boy group Eastshine’s earlier work sufficient to put in writing about it, however the teasers for brand spanking new single Fortunate Tonight promised a cool disco sound that made my ears perk up.

Fortunate Tonight has its coronary heart in the suitable place. It’s mild on its toes and catchy. Nevertheless, each ingredient of the observe is working at a “6” when it might have been cranked as much as a “10.” There are such a lot of different boy teams delivering this materials to a extremely polished diploma, so if you happen to’re going to journey down the disco-funk highway at this level you might want to do one thing extremely memorable (or extremely melodic!) to face out. Fortunate Tonight is neither of these items, but it surely’s a step in the suitable route for the group.
