Umu: So today we have two very special violinists with us today. Can you guys introduce yourselves and your YouTube?
Brett: My name is Brett. Eddy: My name's Jeff. B: And we make a kskdjfn channel.
E: My name is Eddy.
E: This is Brett, we're TwoSet Violin, very honored to appear today on this channel to react to some K!
B: No, React to THE K! E: OH!! B: Some K? It's THE K.
[Rossini's Semiramide]
U: I've seen that you guys are familiar with kpop since you have some kpop related material on your channel.
U: So, I'm wondering what your very first opinion was on kpop when you discovered it for the first time.
B: I was gonna say something- E: Men are beautiful. How's that, I've never felt this way before. Those are pretty...
B: Think this guy introduced me to it. E: No, it was that video we did,
E: like an year ago, remember? I don't remember the context, but we reacted to BLACKPINK, BOOMBAYAH.
E: Why do rubato when you can do boombayah. B: Oh yeah, I remember.
B: Oh yeah, that was the first time, okay. E: I think that was the first time for both of us, and I was just like-
B: I liked it. E: It was very...
B: boombayah E: visually
E: stimulating. B: Everything was beautiful.
U: That's wonderful. Do you guys usually listen to pop music or you usually stick to classical?
B: I don't listen to any music.
E: I listen to some,
E: like variety of music. I'm not like one of those classical musicians that like strictly against pop music,
E: but I have to say I'm more of the type that when I do listen to music at home
E: I want to relax. When I'm at home, I want like low-key stuff. I don't listen to that-
B: I can listen to any music. Just play it and I'll just listen to it.
U: Alright, well the songs that I chose for you guys to listen today are ones that I consider to have at least one thing that
U: sets them apart from a typical pop song.
E: Why don't you not tell us and we'll try to guess why you picked something and then you tell us afterwards.
E: So this is a game, we have to guess why you chose it, let's do it. B: Okay.
E: Okay. B: I'm down.
U: Okay. So now you're reacting to a 13 member boy group called Seventeen, and their 2016 release called 'Aju Nice'
U: which means very nice in English. And the song is actually composed by one of the members named Woozi and the songwriter named Bumzu.
E: What did you say 13 member band named Seventeen? U: Thirteen members, yes.
E: Did 4 people leave or did they just miscount?
U: Four people left, but they have an excuse for calling themselves Seventeen. Thirteen members, three subunits, one group.
E: Nice save. B: Yeah, nice one guys. Spacebar.
E: Bonza! B: I'm trying to listen for the musical stuff. E: What was that?
B: I'm getting distracted by the visuals. E: Yeah.
E: Told you, the men are beautiful.
B: Dude, get out of the way.
E: Dude, I'm trying to cross the street.
E: Oh, I was supposed to be listening out for musical stuff. B: That's what I mean,
B: I'm trying but I can't. E: I can't, I'm just looking at...
B: this is a trick, trick game to distract- maybe we have to close our eyes.
E: Dude, he keeps like, this stuff like he does this, and stuff explodes out.
E: That's literally very...
E: explicit.
B: You know all the musical terms, this is up to you.
E: I don't know what, okay. Why did Emma choose this? B: Because there's 17 guys we'll have to pick from.
E: Cool.
E: Which one do you like the most Emma? Who do you like the most?
U: Woozi.
U: He's the composer, the smallest one. B: Woozi? I like- the smallest one.
B: This guy. E: That guy. B: He looks small.
E: It's probably something to do with the (singing). B: Repeating motif.
E: It's not in a normal major-minor scale, it's like blues or something. I don't want to say that,
E: it's probably not blues, I probably just offended-- B: Ooh!
B: That's why I keep my mouth shut.
E: What scale is that?
E: It's a flat five, that's the most technical I'm going. B: Yeah.
B: Alright, stop there, flat five.
B: All right, I think...
Both: Woah!
B: Dude what happened? E: Emma, can you like edit like...
U: Okay, I'll do my best.
U: So you noticed like the kind of bluesy stuff with the brass, but I seem to have won this round.
E: 'cause it's not. U: Did you notice the drops into the chorus? B: There were drops?
U: It just kept prolonging the drop. B: It kept going longer and longer.
E: Dammit, this is how you wanna play Emma?
B: All right, I blame the 17 boys, it distracted me. U: It is really distracting.
E: It is really distracting.
B: I want to see more. Bumzu, where are you?
B: Hurry up, next time- E: I've got my own. B: Oh you got your own, alright.
B: Maybe we need two ears to figure this game.
U: Oh boy guys, so now I'm showing you like an actual staple in the kpop world,
U: and I'm surprised that you haven't heard of this because it is great,
U: so anyways, this girl group is called Girls Generation and this is their song called
U: 'I Got a Boy'. So this is a song that leads the experimental kpop wave in 2013.
U: The composers that design music said that the inspiration for this song was quite organic in the way that the song was literally written in
U: 15 minutes. They wanted the song to have an urban danceable feel to it, some American swagger,
U: but still keep that unique kpop flavor.
U: And just by the way,
U: the beginning of the music video, the very very beginning, is just like an ad so it isn't actually part of the song.
B: Gonna be distracting. E: No, it's girls. I don't get distracted by girls.
B: That's true. I only get distracted by guys, let's do it.
B: Oh!! I gotta smash it.
E: F major 7. B: Hey man.
B: Ay yo, GG. E: Ay yo, GG.
B: I'm getting distracted.
E: Oh what? Okay, this one's from,
E: F major to E major with the rap interlude transition being as nerdy as I can. B: Yeah.
E: (hums E), E major.
B: It can change again. E: Yeah probably. B: Yeah.
B: Like 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
B: Wait, I'm tripping.
E: Did the tempo get faster? I think it did.
B: What's the tempo?
B: 152.
B: No, 190.
B: Oh, it's back to this thing now.
B: Oh dude, time travel- E: They changed the first subject.
B: So adds on. E: (singing) became (singing)
E: went up a third.
E: I spotted that from a mile away. B: And back again!
B: Bro, déjà vu.
B: That was a man hand, that wasn't a female hand!
E: how dare you touch my idols
Okay- slowing down again
Both: 140 E: oh
E: You were wrong- you said it was 190 B: I said 152 first
I self-doubted myself
No, but that's a different tempo- oh- but the changing it's a different time signature
oh crap my brain E: 140- let's see if she's legit
Alright
Cool, and that one's easy. It's just the tempo changes.
U: Exactly and what the fun thing is
Is that one sec?
You know when they say bring it back to 140 and goes to a specific style
The first time that style appears is exactly 1 minute and 40 seconds into the song
So they're going to 140 BPM and 1:40. It's like in the original track minus the
E: so why added the intro. U: Well, they actually it's without the intro
E: oh wihtout the itnro it's 1:40
And they can post that in 15 mins U: 15 minutes
B: Imagine I compose in 1 minute- E: did that time the 1:40 thing?
So now you reacting to the boy group SHINee who originally consists of 5 members
but there are 4 members and this comeback since one of the members got in a car accident and was unable to promote with the
rest of them. So this is actually released in 2013 and came out on an album called mis- mikrjtngd
Misconceptions of me, which is supposed to have a darker and dreamier feel.
This one, okay, enjoy the harmonic instability
E: oooo B: alright, you ready?
Yeah
E: oooof sorry, laptop
Yeah
dude, it's like Rock-y
It's so different
Tasty bassline. Chromatic
This one is also in E major. What's with all the songs being in E Major today?
B: change- changed it again. He changed it! E: it's like the joker. Why so seriouuss
Imagine it eventually goes to A Major because of what [Taemin] is wearing
or a minor
I'm so confused
B: this reminds me of, like, Queen or something
E: Like the rock feel? (B: yeah) right
E: but i'm just like
B: uh oh here we go
This is throwing my perfect pitch off and that's saying something
B: goodbye. into the simulation
Dude now that's D flat major. It was in E major, I swear
Dude this is like Schaumburg.... but like kpop
B: dude they go more members now!
U: those are backup dancers
B: oh, they're dancers!
All right. E: It's like the member instability is also harmonic- B: every member is a flat in the key.
another flat
5th member, 5th flat E: OHMYGOD maybe, like 7 members means 7 keysignatures
oh my god B: but the thing is still there, the chord-
It's just- B: oh wait no no nono
IT IS A MAJOR! YOU'RE RIGHT
you predicted it
E: Is the bass line always the same though? or is it subtlety changing? That's what i'm curious about
You know what it is? (E: what) we're taking this too seriously. Why so serious? E: I thought of that-
The moment I asked that question, the guy said "why so serious?" B: lets just chill out and go with the vibes man E: yeah yeah just go with the vibes
E: don't over analyze music! B: All right, so
Yeah, you got it. It just modulates everywhere. It goes-
E: do you know if the bassline's the same?
B: they changed it E: they harmonized it. So it appeared in E major then it appeared in Ab and it appeared in D fl- D. idk.
Though the best part was when like it's almost like they knew we'd be analyzing it so it goes "why so serious?"
B: yeah stop looking at itt
So now you're acting to a member from the girl group called Luna. Luna's company was actually
Really really smart to debut only one member at a time. So there's 12 girls
So they started way back in 2016 giving a solo to every single member and they finally recently debuted as a full group
So this is actually the eighth member to debut and her name is choerry and she debuted in
2017 with purple representing her color and fruit about representing her animal. So it like represents her personality
so this song, love cherry motion is composed by Olliepop, Haley Aitken and Kanata Okajima and in this music video
Actually, you're going to see other members from the group appear
So they're going to make like make a cameo and then they also have- this is so confusing. I'm sorry
They also have subunits where her member her subunit members are going to appear so when you're like, oh my god
She has blonde hair now
No
That's actually just her subunit members
E: What subunit mean? U: subunit so it's like it's a full group right? And then it's just like small sections from that group
Okay E: so you mean it's like a section
Yes E: like first violins. Imagine an orchestra that introduce each orchestra member one the time
Oh my god after like 100 months----
Love Cherry Motion. E: my turn B: go
B: I was trying to whack your hand
Mmm digging the vibes
This song reminds me of a different song. Is it just me? U: *whispers* Katy Perry
nottherightnotes
Well, it was influenced by Katy Perry
B: Inspired- by Katy Perry E: inspired. Oh, I like this bit is very dreamy
Cherry on top. Oh.
E:Oh B: the darkside E: now it;s the darkside
Night time is heeere. The real choerry's coming out or no- her name's- choerry? yeah
I'm digging that bassline
Whoa
It's going to be naughty Choerry!
B: bad? E: aHHHH called that!
Dude it sounds Arabic? Yeah
Full of seventh chords. OhH, how do you do that? color correction! Adobe!
She's slowly like getting taken over by the darkside
Probably the meaning is like every girl has a dark side E: two mean- two sides to them
The innocent pretty side, (B: but does the music say that) and then the complex side
That was a very ASMR ending. B: Yeah. E: Oh, I think it's to do with the
Duality the music. No, but that's too shallow. There must be more to it.
That Arabic scale, you know your modes, right?
phrygian
E: That's the same a Boombayah! B: Blackpink!
yes, so kpop really likes this Phrygian natural 3 scale
Is that--- *bows* U: major phrygian. B: haven't heard that word in like...10 years....."phrygian."
so we just call it Phrygian natural 3 or mixolydian flat 2 or Egyptian scale.
B: Egyptian scale E: Egyptian scale I like that.
U:So out of those four songs. Do you remember all the four or should I like- B: did we listen to 4?
Yes. U: It was SHINee (B: oh yeah SHINee) and then there is a Girls Generation, and then Aju Nice with explosions
And there's this one. which one was your favorite?
the second one that changes tempo back to 140
I like that one, but I don't know if i'd listen to that one.
But I don't listen to music.
Which one do you like the most?
E: not from a listening standpoint. U: which I surprised you the most?
well surprise me was the second one. E: which one's visuals did you like the most?
the second one.
U: ok so I think the 2nd one is your answer XD B: yeah the 2nd one
Awesome, okay part 2 coming soon
