Title:
2nd place of SuperStar K season3
Online Music Award at 6th Mnet 20's choice
I want to introduce one of my favorite singers, Busker Busker. I knew this band from SuperStar K, an audition program broadcast at Mnet a few years ago. At first, I didn't like their music because I couldn't find anything interesting. Their music style was somewhat stereotypical which many of Korean independent bands used to have. During the audition, I rather preferred their competitor, Woolala session.
What changed my opinion about this band was their first album, also named Busker Busker. When they launched their new album, I decided to listen to it because I was curious how much they could have developed their music style. To my surprise, when I finished listening to all of the tracks in their album, I was fascinated by almost all of their songs. They had their distinct style of music which was very well embedded. Also, while each song had its own unique style and addictive melody, the album as a whole was maintaining its theme which was about "Spring."
Instead of introducing all of the songs in the album, I would rather suggest that you listen to some of their music here.
Cherry blossoms ending - Title song
Night sea of Yeosoo
Though there are many songs you would like, I think these two songs can suffice. What do you think about their music? Isn't is very unique and enjoyable? If you find it likable, why don't you start listening to their music from now on. I'm sure you'll like most of their songs.
They also launched their new album called "completion of 1st album." This album includes five songs which could have been added into the previous album, if the first album's main theme hadn't been set as "Spring." Those songs are very similar to those in the first album; however, they are more fresh and lively because their theme is more like "Summer."
