I love me some Beat Freaks

Jan 27, 2010 11:58

Going through the Beat Freaks' twitter feed for the first time in a long time. Apparently, a new season of America's Best Dance Crew is premiering tomorrow! ROFL, I had no idea!

Freak the Vogue! 2! Background of Vogue Dance.There is something ironic, delicious, and cute about the gay men of Vogue Evolution having to teach the female dance members ( Read more... )

Show me show me~ craver199103 January 28 2010, 01:53:31 UTC
I'm still making my way through this wonderful list of links. D: I clicked the one with Lil Mama first and I have to say she's just...flopped on my list of credible artists, so much so that I forgot she could actually dance. There was a time when I actually did like her music and her but now she's...well I'm sure you know.

That said, I'll be clicking through all the other links D: but FIRST~

The ShowShowShow track has been released in full HQ. I definitely like it a lot better than Oh~, but I see Jessica's still using that barbie girl voice and they loooooooove them some english JeTi dialogue. It's a step up, but I hope it's not the song for the "Dark SNSD" to appear. It just wouldn't fit. D:

I know what you mean about Lil' Mama. There's a whole MTV episode of "Sweet Sixteen" devoted to putting that party together that I didn't link. D:

Thank you for the link! I haven't listened to it yet, but even in low quality, I enjoyed "Show Show Show" more immediately off the bat than I did "Oh!" *sigh* But still, it really isn't a title track.

but I hope it's not the song for the "Dark SNSD" to appear. It just wouldn't fit. D:

Agreed so much! The song is too cutesy for the concept we can guess at from the clothes themselves. Plus where are my rockin' hard beats for awesome dance performance?!

Am resisting Mnet and relying on youtube.

I'm not sure whether Showshowshow or Be Happy will be better, too much talky and background music interludes. Be Happy has more even more high-pitched bits than Showshowshow, I think, but they both sound difficult to sing live, the main vocals seem to be straining. (Sunny got nice little breakdown part in Showshowshow, *is proud of fav soprano*). Be Happy has an awesome 70s vibe in the refrain, very flower power to me--but ooh, my throat hurts just listening to Jessica and Taeyeon in that.

The "funandfun" song is...kitschy. Upbeat bubbly kitsch.

Why so many spots with no singing?! SM will be the death of my music taste.

Are we supposed to assume that the music playing for the arrival of "Bad SNSD" in the mv is the next single? Cause none of these songs are it.

BALLAD LOVE!! "Forever" raingilded January 28 2010, 02:12:07 UTC
classic vocal line-up for v1 and chorus.
v1: ty, seohyun, jessica, tiff,
then tae in half the chorus, with Sunny finishing it off

v2: Yul? Soo?
chorus 2: jess? seo? then sunny? tiff?
hyo? sica? Wut??

COUNTERMELODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then taeng adlib

YES PROGRESSION! DRAMATIC MUSIC STOP!
Jessica adlib

Various vocal line adlib,

Tiffany solo big line

BIG CHOIR BACKGROUND, vocal line adlibs, back to normal 8 background singing

Man, how can they do this live? They won't be able to reproduce the clean blend of 8 voices in the background,

Sunny ending line?! love.
Ah, taeng repeats ending line.

Boys and Girls is so much fun! Am liking the beat and the kitschiness is just right. Why does Key sound muffled? Tighten the verse-chorus interludes, SM ( ... )

Finding my way to Hyo's voice.... hyoyeonfan January 28 2010, 05:43:18 UTC
Ok, I spent at least 3-4 minutes on each song and sorted out most of the voices.

Hyo parts:
Boys & Girls - 1:42-145 and 3:22-3:25 and lso think Hyo sings as the back up @1:06-1:15 w/ Sunny singing as the main
Star Star Star - 2:23-2:36
Be Happy - all I hear is Sica's voice x]
무조건 해피엔딩 (Stick Wit U) - 1:25-1:31(?)
뻔&Fun (Sweet Talking Baby) - 1:31-1:37
Forever - 2:35-2:39
Show Show Show - IDK

My fave songs so far are Boys & Girls, Star Star Star, and Be Happy (even though the voices are so high and can't tell who's singing, but the beat is just so damn catchy)
Also, they're having a repackaged album so there is a possibility that Show Show Show will not be the next single to promote

Beat Freaks <3333 I saw them on MTV today for Lil' Mama's BDay bash :D
And cannot wait to see the new ABDC season, the preview of it looked EPIC with one crew parodying Kanye's little MTV Music Awards drama XD

You did all the work. XD Hyo surprised me in "Boys & Girls" and "Star Star Star." <3

Let this be truuuuuuuuuuue!

LOL, I'm not sure what to think that you saw the Sweet Sixteen episode. XD I didn't even know the new season was upon us! Last season was a disappointment, I thought, so I didn't really keep up on ABDC news. *sigh*

Yesh, husky voice Hyo in Boys & Girls is so WIN!

I'm hoping for it not to be Show Show Show...

I was bored and flipped through channels(on break for a week from classes) and long story short, I saw Beat Freaks talking w/ Lil' Mama. Trust me, I haven't seen most of the seasons only Kabba Modern's season(season1 <3) and Beat Freaks....and caught some episodes of We Are Hero's season, but that's it. But the power of a box that has me glued to the screen, while I have nothing to do at school, I see previews for the next seasons to come x]
