Within the lead-up to their second album, Twice sub-unit Misamo unveiled a canopy of Namie Amuro’s 2008 hit New Look. As a lover of the unique tune, I discovered the replace supremely missing. It drained all power from an in any other case strong piece of music. Now, the women are again to proper the ship with authentic tune Identification.
Considerations about power are unfounded this time, as Identification offers Misamo an thrilling hip-hop beat ornamented with bombastic brass and strings. The manufacturing has a ceremonial attraction, like a grand unveiling. The association is huge and enjoyable, complimenting the tune’s self-empowerment vibe. Sonically, Identification performs like a less-crazed model of ITZY’s Gold. Its components are extra refined however not as idiosyncratic. It’s a pleasant, protected sound for Misamo, making the most of their apparent charisma.
Identification will get itself into bother relating to its hooks and melodies. This has turn into a pervasive challenge with music recently, making me surprise the place all the good top-liners are hiding. When excited about melody, I usually think about stripping a tune of its manufacturing and listening to an acoustic or perhaps a cappella model. Identification simply wouldn’t work in these contexts, which is okay (and commonplace) for dance/hype tracks. Nonetheless, probably the most enduring music in any style tends to be so hermetic that it might flourish with a wide range of preparations. With this in thoughts, Identification may be very reliant on its beat and efficiency.
