K-POP PRODUCER Reacts to STRAY KIDS - '소리꾼' Thunderous

[@AZODi]

Thanks for watching! Book the mentoring w/ me HERE ➜ calendly.com/azodimusic

[@risenq1]

I have off topic question, which version of dt 770 you have? 250ohm's or 80ohm's ? and if you tested both, cause i would like to know if there's much difference cause i have only 80ohm and im curious if its worth it :D

[@NothinkToDo]

It feels like SKZ have found a sound that works for them. And now they are perfecting it and maturing it and I'm all for it. This feels like a worthy successor to God's Menu. The rest of the album is great as well and I can't wait to see what they have planned for their next releases.

[@AZODi]

oh for sure! I've been listening to the album a good amount since doing this video, I am enjoying it a lot. For me tho, God's Menu is just too much of a fav of mine haha its one of my most listened to songs of last year!

[@NothinkToDo]

@@AZODi Oh yeah, following up on such a massively successful song was always gonna be difficult for sure! Thanks for reacting to so many songs! Love your analysis!

[@Dev.85]

I've found that if you release songs that continually exceed expectations it drives up consumer expectation and can eventually fizzle out into disappointment. I was worried due to the expectations placed on them after Kingdom to be honest, their mash up of God's Menu and Ddu Du Ddu Du set the bar. As long as they are sticking to their convictions with music and remain happy I'll follow them to the end. They are such a joy to watch grow.

[@eukaristiya]

I agree

[@MusicalWizardryMarcoIannello]

The traditional setting is what I love the most in this tune, honestly. I was trying to single out whether they had been using traditional instruments, and yes, the kkoengwari is definitely there 😁

[@LO-dm6uf]

When you were talking about how producers pitch songs to companies and so on....i thought WOW stray kids never really had a song pitched to them because all of their songs are written and composed by either entirely by them or with 1 or 2 other writers/producers.....it's so unique because each stray kids song is uniquely crafted for them ensuring they have their OWN distinct sound, unlike a pitched song that could have worked for a handful of other groups if they had the chance to buy the song.

[@AZODi]

mostly 3racha yeah! if u check out my kairos interview he, co-wrote chronosaurus , but the AnR's really help guide the direction. its all a team effort as always! i think its most likely 3racha had to write a lot more songs than the album as a few wouldn't have worked in-line with the vision too!

[@taylorgeddes2836]

The snare in the last chorus was such a good addition. Made the last chorus hit hard like it should. Had my head banging

[@AZODi]

oh yeah! its nasty, thats what we want in a SKZ A side haha

[@seolaraxis]

3racha is the 3 members of stray kids themselves ❣

[@AK-pd5li]

Hot sauce and 3racha spicy 🥵🔥

[@AZODi]

ikr? been listening to the album after uploading this, sooo many innovative and original ideas on their end, its really awesome to hear!

[@maurycy_gnc]

That drop is sick my guy.. why are all the k-pop drops so sick man? Am I turning in a teenage schoolgirl? I'm scared

[@AZODi]

loool i mean, im mid 30's and i still get excited about their drops hahah sure its marketed for a younger demographic but doesnt mean older people cant get pumped for it too right?!

[@maurycy_gnc]

@@AZODi i mean how could you not?

[@ammaranuar2544]

The pre-chorus really elevates the song is so satisfying to listen.

[@MommaJB]

This reaction is awesome you bring a true professional opinion on Kpop culture/music. I’m gonna watch more of your content. Love SKZ and that you appreciate their music

[@AZODi]

ayyyy glad to hear it momma! yesss love skz! should have a few more on the channel!! welcome!

[@kendalchen]

This was the first Stray Kids video I watched, then God's Menu and Back Door. While I watched them out of order, they're my favorite, and I notice that all three have what I can only call an "arm gag" - the DU DU DU in God's Menu, the door thing in Back Door, and the hahaha thing in this video. I never listen to such swagger in music, but they really sell it. :) Thanks for the analysis; I subscribed earlier and am scrolling back in time for other songs I know.

[@AZODi]

haha i never noticed the arm swag move, only in this song! oh man gods menu, it was one of my most played songs on spotify last year! Did you check out that KDA remix i did? A lot of Gods menu in that haha glad you enjoyed the video dude!

[@kendalchen]

@@AZODi , I just listened to it; I hadn't yet and now I am jazzed about it. That's getting listened to again. What I love about very good remixes like yours is that I don't have to know every song in there. Heck, back around 2010 I found the DJ Masa mashups that served as a springboard into my listening to Korean pop the first time. Listening to the KDA remix is an extra layer of excellent because unlike in 2010, I know a lot more of the source songs in that one. I like that you used some of the same vocal effects I notice that seem unique to the Korean language. I recently started writing down every time I hear a Korean-language song use certain kind of....trills? Rolled r's? I'm a professional language teacher, so this stuff stands out to me. I speak no Korean, but I noticed that there is something in their alphabet/sound system that makes it possible for them to make basically machine-gun noises. It's pretty interesting.

[@neeonfox7484]

Stray Kids is my guy group bias 🥰

[@AZODi]

oh yes!

[@Vedg111195]

I love your videos! Really up there with some of the most insightful kpop reactors. Easily top 10 for me. Always end them wanting much more and wishing the vids were longer. Love how they incorporated modern instruments with more traditional asian instruments and mirrored it with the visuals. One word to describe this comeback is "Epic." and the production and the bombastic nature of the track really does give the name Thunderous justice.

[@AZODi]

thats really cool to read 11! I appreciate it and am happy you enjoy the videos :) haha yeah the track sure is thunderous!!

[@beamarin9832]

I love how Stray Kids have a diverse set of reactors, from professional choreographers and dancers to music producers and video editors and watching them each explain their expertise as well as be astonished? this is is such a really fun and very interesting way to be more appreciative of their works. Love the information as always, Azodi!!

[@AZODi]

most def bea! thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it!

[@alinam05]

Subbed for your analysis and still enjoyed while doing so, happy new year!

[@AZODi]

Welcome aboard and happy new year!

[@bookstoremaster1023]

this music used korean traditional instruments(꽹과리, 태평소, 양금) like Agust D's Daechwita 대취타

[@mooniemudeok]

I don't know if we've said the comments, but the blue fire is the fire of the goblin (a korean folklore character) you must have noticed how traditional the mv is. I saw a Korean reacting to this song, and he said that the boys' rap style in this song, it's a traditional rap style too. People who don't speak Korean hardly notice the difference between normal Korean rap and traditional rap with old words, accents and etc. It's so interesting...😍🥺

[@AZODi]

oh thats super interesting! i didnt kno that! is that the same folklore story where they throw red beans at the goblin to scare it off? haha

[@mooniemudeok]

@@AZODi hmm, I've never heard of it, but it might be hahah. But I also saw in a place that they like red bean rice cake. But maybe it's not the same, since this story is sooo old, there can be multiple versions. But it's still suuuper interesting!

[@DancePowered]

Favorite Reaction yet!

[@AZODi]

Appreciate it jennifer!

[@shiobhan8648]

Hi. Please check out "THE BADDEST" Comeback single of BGYO. Btw, BGYO is a rising boy group from the Philippines. its worth watching. Hoping to see your RV soon. Thank you and keep safe..

[@LCAyoutube]

to me personally this song feels extremely chaotic - especially the whole part before the first chorus. the chorus really feels like it saved the song :d. other than that, this song is that one Stray kids form, which is great. but I think they went a bit overboard with all of the different things in this song. edit - when you hummed the melody in the end, it reminded me of Drums go dum from KDA :0

[@AZODi]

fair points made Lu! lol really? yeh i can kinda hear it XD

[@blackmane134]

That's the whole point. Haters were calling their music noisy/loud without reason so they made this to be like yes we're loud (thunderous/ noisy ones)
