August is done and dusted, that means it’s time for our August Korean Indie DisKovery. Summer break is over and kids have already started going back to school. It’s been one extremely hot summer, so I’m ready for autumn, all things pumpkin spiced and a plethora of scarves. For this feature though, let’s take a look back at our favorite releases.
Week 1
‘TOWN’ by minzunki is one groovy bop that should get more recognition. Dance all your troubles away with this fantastic single.
Eunoo’s ‘Dive’ is dramatic and dreamy. It has a good beat to it and Eunoo’s soft vocals. It’s awesome.
We Are the Night came back with the EP ‘Fly, Avoid, Love the Future’.
Week 2
Theatre8 released ‘Golden Age of HongKong Movies’. The full album ‘About World’ is some delightful old school fun.
Miru Song came out with the bop ‘Inside’.
Kwon Wol has blessed the world with his new EP ‘At Silversand Beach (summer)’.
Week 3
Kwon So Jeong dropped the beautiful single ‘Forest’.
Western Kite came out with the single ‘I LOVE YOU’. I absolutely adore this comeback.
Irda released ‘The End of August’.
Week 4
Haze Moon came out with the beautiful ballad ‘34’.
Out of Blue dropped the wonderful, ethereal ‘Liebes Kamille’.
Yeonsoo released ‘I’m your night’ which is a brilliant electronic 6 minute piece with minimal vocals and maximum feelings.
That’s it for this August Korean Indie DisKovery. Tell us which one your favorite releases of the month was. As always, you can find our full August playlist on Spotify here.
