New music from PLAVE, D82, TRENDZ, BUGVEL

“Dash” by PLAVE


PLAVE have really made a name for themselves in the past year, gaining lots of new fans. Myself included! Their latest album Caligo Pt.1 and title track “Dash” represent the group continuing that strong momentum with this step forward in their sound and style. The rock-infused “Dash” is different from the title tracks they’ve released so far. But very much another showcase for their vocal talents with some stunning visuals to match. The rest of the album features a pair of groovy R&B tracks and two gentle ballads as well. A great comeback for the talented group!

“Vinasse” by D82


D82 is back with the single “Vinasse”. The rock track features an effortless performance from the band and the always strong vocals from Han Seung Yun. An energetic song with a unique story in its lyrics as well. Hope to see and hear more from the band this year!

“Bad Enough” by TRENDZ


TRENDZ release the Japanese single “Bad Enough” which sounds and feels like a throwback to their early releases in Korea. I have really loved their last few Korean releases and the direction they were heading toward. But “Bad Enough” feels like a combination of those charismatic early title tracks and the brighter recent tracks. Will be interesting to see what their Korean comebacks this year will look and sound like too!

“Order in the Court” by BUGVEL


Also from Japan, BUGVEL return with new single “Order in the Court”. And with this solid and dramatic orchestra-tinged pop-dance track, I realize I haven’t checked them out since 2022 and I’ve missed out on a pair of releases since then. But this track certainly motivates me to go back and check them out!
