Legend of Korean R&B is Back!
|
It's been a long wait for many fans; K-pop's biggest reunion is finally happening right before our very own eyes! Yoon Gun and Na Ul of Korean R&B duo Brown Eyes finally patched up their differences after years of disbandment. Their new album Two Things Needed For The Same Purpose and 5 Objects is not only igniting a major spark in the stagnant music industry, but it's also hitting the emotional highs with numerous fans who have long been crossing their fingers for the duo's reunion. Containing a total of 14 tracks lathered in the duo's trademark harmony, Brown Eyes spent more than a month per song, retooling and editing until perfection. Yoon Gun and Na Ul, the album's co-executive producers, collaborated with Grammy award-winning producer/sound engineer Goh Hotoda, whose A-list resume includes names like Baby Face and Madonna.
Composed by Yoon Gun and penned by Gary of Leessang, Ga jima ga jima is a 3-beat uptempo ballad that highlights the duo's smothering vocals. The song triggers many emotions involved when facing a breakup. Bringing back the familiar sentiments from the duo's 2001 hit Already A Year, Nur dte moon ae exudes the duo's classic essence while offering a big-scale sound, unique from their earlier style of music. Responsible for introducing R&B sounds to the mainstream market in Korea, the duo continues to set new trends, blending their signature sounds with a variety of musical genres from uptempo and mid-tempo ballads to electronic house, Latin soul, and R&B.
