Buried Treasure: Brave Girls – Can I Love You

A Ok-pop act’s title monitor isn’t at all times the perfect track on their album, even when it’s the one most individuals will hear. Typically, b-sides deserve recognition too. Within the singles-oriented world of Ok-pop, I wish to highlight a few of these buried treasures and provides them the props they deserve.

Courageous Women’ new mini album is a continuous disco get together. And whereas it by no means reaches the heights of final yr’s momentous comebacks, I like its constant groove and melodic strategy. This isn’t shocking given Courageous Brothers’ involvement in each track. There’s one thing to be mentioned in regards to the “outdated guard” of Ok-pop producers. It’s at all times nice to listen to new voices, however I admire the classics additionally getting their due. I actually may have featured any of the album’s tracks as a buried treasure, however the propulsive Can I Love You has hit me the toughest. Courageous Women, in the event you’re going to maintain releasing high quality music like this, you possibly can love me any time!

Can I Love You is aware of precisely what it desires to do, instantly unveiling its catchy synth riff and unyielding membership beat. The verse presents a collection of ascending vocals, supporting these dramatic synths. There’s a desperation to the melody within the refrain – pleading and insistent in a means that provides the monitor emotional heft. However, my favourite side of Can I Love You arrives after the refrain. A pitched vocal loop jolts the track to a different degree because the depth elevates and the beat turns into extra strong. Truthfully, they might have given me three minutes of this loop and I might have been completely happy. I simply adore the feel.

The monitor threatens to develop a bit repetitive because it goes on, however its three-and-a-half minutes go by in a flash. And with each ingredient of Can I Love You designed to intensify its core melodies, that repetition feels impactful moderately than uninteresting. Beggars can’t be choosers, however a extra dynamic climax with a satisfying sense of payoff would have assured longevity on my playlist.
