Along with precise debuts, “pre-debuts” have change into a factor for Okay-pop idols. I’m not completely certain what the purpose is other than constructing hype with out taking an enormous monetary danger, however the extra music we get the higher so I can’t complain. I.MET.U is an upcoming lady group from (checks notes) TikTok survival sequence Time Turner. Sure, TikTok.
With this info, you may anticipate Velvet Set off to final about twenty seconds. In reality, the track just isn’t solely full but additionally assured and thrilling. I’d go so far as saying this is without doubt one of the yr’s finest lady group debuts… besides it’s not really a debut! Forgoing many of the business’s present developments, the track opts for a synth-soaked dance beat that’s a bit retro however largely simply refined and trendy. Refreshingly, Velvet Set off is sung during, anchored by a deceptively catchy hook that spotlights the women’ heat tones.
Whereas the observe is not going to win any awards for originality, its modern dance power could be very welcome in Okay-pop. The manufacturing has a easy, timeless enchantment, selecting sounds that may work simply as effectively ten years from now as they do within the second. The identical might be mentioned for the group’s unaffected efficiency. It’s simple in one of the simplest ways and hints at nice potential going ahead. I don’t know the way many individuals will hear this track given their company’s restricted attain, however I’m positively rooting for his or her success.
