Volume Up, release on 4.09.12, is 4minute’s 3rd mini-album. Things start off with 「Get On The Floor」, is what I would say is a long introduction song as an ad-lib goes “uh-uh-uh-uh~” and HyunA says “Get on the floor”. The instrumental is purely electronica and a bit of synthesizer coupled with sound effects (like screeching [...]

Sherlock, released on 3.19.12, is SHINee’s 4th mini-album. 「Sherlock.셜록 (Clue+Note)」 starts off with a mysterious orchestra before the electronica beats in as Minho whispers, “SHINee’s back…” Jonghyun starts off with strong vocals followed by Onew and Taemin.

BLAQ%Ver, released on 3.21.12, is the repackaged mini-album of 100% Ver. 「BLAQ% (Theme) (feat. 이단옆차기)」 plays a techno beat as a female voice says “Music Boys Live in Absolute Quality” twice before she says “MBLAQ, BLAQ%” a couple of times. A male voice then comes in to say some stuff then the electronica and autotune [...]

ALIVE, released on 2.29.12, is Big Bang’s 5th mini-album. 「INTRO (ALIVE)」 starts off the mini-album with some quick lyrics and a electronica instrumental. Definitely the line to take from this is, “I’m still alive!” which G-Dragon says again over and over. It ends with TOP saying, “We’re living that good life!” With a soft electronica, [...]

Grown-Up, released on 1.31.12, is F.T Island’s 4th mini-album. 「지독하게 (Severely)」 begins with a strong guitar and percussion instrumental that quiets down a little when Hongki comes in. The instrumental switches to acoustic guitars and another member (probably JaeJin) does some back-up vocals for Hongki. Hongki’s vocals are strong, but full of emotion as he [...]

100% Ver., released on 1.10.12, is MBLAQ’s 2nd mini-album. What the heck is 「Run」. I thought I heard a bad horror movie in the beginning. Then a synthesizer/electronica instrumental starts up as the guys go, “You better run, run, run”. And then lots of autotune, oh joy. Plus the return of the classic movie screaming. [...]
