Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
It’s finally autumn, the superior season, and I’ve come out of my fury-based summer haze to bring you a new playlist. With further faffing around, let’s go!
—–
Minty – ‘Arcadia’
Minty’s sweet vocals match nicely with this dreamy-upbeat melody, and there’s some pretty modulation scattered throughout.
Colde – ‘Control Me’
Colde is truly a man who never stops, and he also never disappoints me. His slightly-nasal vocals are soft and gorgeous on this melancholy track.
VIXX – ‘Parallel’
I was surprised when VIXX very suddenly announced a new digital single just before their concert, and while it’s not their usual super-detailed concept thing they do, this song is fun – and it’s nice to see them again after a long time.
Bol4 – ‘Workaholic’
Nice, husky vocals, a pleasant groove – this song is all around pretty solid even if it’s nothing groundbreaking.
GroovyRoom ft. Youra & Leellamarz – ‘Color’
GroovyRoom is – and this is gonna be a shock – currently the master of soft grooves, as far as I’m concerned. This is another release that very quickly made it into my personal monthly playlist.
TWICE – ‘Love Foolish’
Listen, I’m a big believer in listening to b-sides or big releases. As someone who’s never really managed to get into TWICE, their new album surprised me with how much I liked it. This track and ‘Trick It’ are my favourites currently.
Ryu su a – ‘H!’
The MV for this song is very low-budget but very sweet, and su a’s voice is truly lovely over an extremely simple melody. This is a perfect rainy day song.

And that’s it for this month! As always, feel free to leave any recommendations in the comments or tweet them to me @hm_worthed – and happy streaming!
