Short Stuff 79 : Ushio, RYU SEOKWON, Astral Drift, yoonjae, Yang Chang Keun, Seyan Kim

Ushio : Come Up to My…

“Come Up to My…” is a relatively standard pop rock song by Ushio. It reminds me of the same audioscape that verycoybunny creates.

RYU SEOKWON : The Witch’s Sacacorchos

The main draw of “The Witch’s Sacacorchos” is the genre that it exists in. It’s folk, but also carries some Spanish rhythmic undertones. RYU SEOKWON delivers a song that draws you in.

Astral Drift : Smoke

I didn’t expect a mellow melodic rock single called “Smoke” from a band named Astral Drift. I thought it might be like Synsnake or an alternative melodic rock band. “Smoke” is an OST single under the surface.

yoonjae : A Common Miracle

yoonjae reminds me of early Electriceels with a simple-to-understand indie rock style. “A Common Miracle” is a great song.

Yang Chang Keun : murmur

Yang Chang Keun is a bit of an infrequent new music uploader. But “murmur” is an addictive mellow synth and indie song. It doesn’t make a huge impact, but maintains a strong presence that gets into your head.

Seyan Kim : Beautiful Disease

Seyan Kim emailed about “Beautiful Disease.” The song is a message to her cat, who had been with her for 10 years, that she has lost. It’s a cross between a ballad, indie pop, and synth pop rolled in an animated movie wrapper. It’s got a lot of audio hooks and openly presents her feelings.
