Kpop: T-ara N4










Like every group of some self standing, T-ara ofc has to have their own subunit, which is called T-ara N4 (for once an obvious kpop name) and they released their first song today in glorious dual drama and dance versions. And I really dont know what to say. If 4minute's and Shinee's comebacks the latest week was somewhat a disappointing due to them being "just" good, T-ara N4's debut is ... well ... a bit like a wierd dream. Like you are watching some kind of kpop movie or video and you begin to dose of into an alternative version were the song slowly goes weird in a understated way.

Mandopop: Cyndi Wang (王心凌)







Taiwanese Cyndi Wang has been releasing albums for more than 11 years now, and I have (as usual with chinese songs) been selective and focused on uptempo pop songs. Which still leaves us with quite the choice of good videos... ^_^

Kpop: (CSHJ/TSZX) The Grace (천상지희)






The Grace is supposedly still going but I'm not that sure thay have long left. It is telling for me at least that their best songs are made by subunits/solo projects.

Kpop: Stephanie - Game





I thought I'd share this solo project from 2012 from Stephanie of The Grace. It is quite a nice piece of smooth kpop which makes me think a little of italian pop.
