#CricketRadio 🎧 Flash Review

STAYC’s audio quality is going down. ‘BEBE’ is a diva house track that sounds like it was made in garage band. The main hooks are the same notes blaring and are slightly flat, meaning that even at under 3 minutes the song drags.

#CricketRadio 🎧 Debut Radar

Koi Kat, former member of ANS, has made her solo debut with ‘Let it Show,’ an upbeat, classic dance pop track with a strong bass and build up to a fantastic drop into the chorus. There’s a nostalgic quality to this that reminds me of Taeyeon or early Chung Ha.

#CricketRadio 🎧 Flash Review

Jisoo is full of surprises. ‘earthquake’ is bassy and fun, and I was happy to hear a Korean release from a BP soloist. The drop is uneventful (a problem since FLOWER),and the song is pretty samey. It’s leagues up from her first release, but still not doing much for me.

U_Chae is my favorite soloist right now, delivering us everything from garage to electro house, and now she’s back with pop-rock ‘Red Sun,’ an upbeat and chirpy QWEResque track ahead of her Japanese debut, Prism of Love.

despite a weak intro, purple kiss’ HEADWAY (2024) is a true return to their grungy and witchy form after a confusing turn with BBB (which itself heads a very underrated mini). people are quick to overlook purple kiss’ incredibly consistent and self produced work
