Music March: T.O.P. - Doom Dada

TOP, by far, has the most attractive voice in all of kpop.  His flow is amazing and, did I mention his voice is great?  With a voice like that, one would think he can't carry a solo career... surprise surprise- that voice can do anything.  "Doom Dada" is such a fitting song for his voice, and the Eastern sound added to the beat is phenomenal.  Judge for yourself.

Music March: Koda Kumi - Dreaming Now

Music March today is brought to you by a famous Jpop artist Koda Kumi. Koda Kumi can dance and saaaang too!  This song is alright. It's not a bad song, but it's not her best either. Check it out and let us know where you stand.

Music March: EXO - WOLF

Ah-Oooooooo~!  Today's Music March is a bad boy song by EXO!  Not only is the music video pretty cool (special effects and all) but the song itself grows on you.   This little group has come quite the way, but of course, no SM male group ever goes unnoticed.  SM has the magic touch!

Music March: Namie Amuro - Baby Don't Cry

Namie Amuro's hair is long guys.. but, I digress - this song has a bit of an R&B laid back kinda feel to it.  This could be the tune you round the curvy corners of a hill top drive with your girls. Enjoy today's Music March!

Music March: Super Junior M - Super Girl

Shupa Shupa!  Love this song still to this day! Great beat, great video, catchy song, catchy everything!  The guys look good, and sound great. Such a fun song.  As far as singalong-ability goes this tune has it!


"Super Girl" by Super Junior M

Music March: Gackt - Claymore

Gackt brings the essential Jpop feel to today's Music March! Claymore is one those quintessential Jpop songs.  It sounds like a kick-butt anime OST and oddly enough it has a bit of an elevator flavor to it.  You can still somehow JAM to this song.  Check it out and let us know what you think!

Music March: Bi Rain - LA Song

Today's Music March is from the latest by Rain!  Our boy  man came back from the army with his 30Sexy single. Today, however, we feature the song "LA Song" which is also another great song.  The song is defnitely a club jammer - and the video shows that.  The video has such an eclectic group of people and I adore Rain for gracing the kpop scene with that.  The timbre in Rain's voice makes this song all that it is, and it is definitely an amazing tune.

Music March: 2NE1 - Come back Home

Happy Friday, Kromers!

"Come back Home" is on 2NE1's new album, Crush. They have recently won first place on Inkigayo for this song. The MV reminds of something Big Bang would be doing now and the sound reminds me of Red Roc's old song "Hello". Since I love both of these things, I did like this song, especially the rap part!

Music March: Mayday - Step by Step

As this MV started, so many questions popped into my head. Why are these men just on some island? Why is there an elephant? How did these guys befriend an elephant? Can I become friends with an elephant and run towards the elephant like long lost friends?

I was hoping these questions would be answered as the video went on, but they were not. The song is melodic, and I oddly liked how the song was pretty constant. The instruments and beat used throughout the song stayed the same, even the chorus didn't seem to speed up or get any more exciting. I don't know if this is because I'm in a restful state or because I truly like the song-this is always questionable for slower songs. I hope you enjoy this Taiwanese rock band's song, "Step by Step".

Music March: Royal Pirates - Drawing the Line

This is Adio's kind of jam- upbeat and a catchy tune! Although the song is great, I don't think the MV is something spectacular. Its great to watch to see the guys jamming out and having a fun time, but its not really a "story line" to follow. This song is definitely one to have on repeat though because of the catchy beat.

Music March: Yusuke - Iru Yo

Today's Music March tune is very recent and something more chill.  Yusuke is a Japanese artist and this is a kind of change of season song... it can be enjoyed in any season change, and honestly, any season for that matter.  A summer drive, a spring walk, a winter warm up, and a fall cuddle!  Enjoy the song y'all, and think of Krome <3 nbsp="" p="">

Music March: Simon D - Cheerz

Is this how Korea streets really are!? Simon D's "Cheerz" opens our eyes to "Korea at Night". I love the beat to this song...this was my JAM for a few weeks. I like the rapping and I like the MV a lot. This is Simon D's solo debut song and I think he definitely ROCKED it. Take a listen, this song would be good for a "Road Trip Playlist".

Music March: EXILE Atsushi - Make a Miracle

Disclaimer:  Krome Radio's Music March (and affiliates) is not responsible for any driving tickets, any broken backs, or any broken hearts (due to confidence boost) that today's pick may bring about.

Guys, this song is hott! It's great. It's one of those INSTANT "have my baby" songs.  (Don't know what an instant "have my baby" song is - listen to the Krome Radio Podcasts on iTunes and stop mooching off the blog!)  Get into this song.  Exile is giving me life with this one.  If you're new to Jpop and want a true Jpop introduction, here it is.  You won't be disappointed.

Music March: Hebe - Ni Jiu Bu Yao Xiang Qi Wo

The sadness! S.H.E's, Hebe, sings "Ni Jiu Bu Yao Xiang Qi Wo" (Translated to "You better not think about me"). I love how this song starts off with just the piano. This is the type of slow song I can handle. This song was released on her latest album, "Insignificance" back in November.

Music March: SAM - Garosugil

Today we're bringing you all a new Kpop song by SAM called "Garosugil".  SAM is originally from the Chicago land area, so I felt like I needed to represent! It seems like this song is supposed to have a good dance feel to it, which it does have, but for me there was something missing. I was waiting for something to really grab me and make me want to groove along. Unfortunately, I finished the full song and still felt incomplete.

This is SAM's debut song though, so maybe his next track will move me.

Music March: Stefanie Sun- Kepler

Hey Y'all! 

Lets get some Cpop up in here!!! Our pick today is a song by Stefanie Sun, a Taiwan based Singaporean singer/songwriter. "Kepler" was released a few weeks ago, so it's still fairly new. I didn't really like the beginning too much since it was a little slow for my taste, BUT I continued listening since her voice sounded so sad. I ended up really liking how the ending of the song turned out ( the beat picked up a bit and more instruments were brought in).  The whole MV is in black and white too, and she's rocking a FIERCE outfit/hair.  Let us know your thoughts!

Music March: May J - Believe

Hey Krome Fam!

Today's Music March pick is a little lady by the name of May J.  Her song "Believe" is a calming song sung in Japanese.  The music video has soft tones and is easy on the eyes - just like the vocals and tune of the song.  The mood reminds me of a 'farewell' as well as 'welcome back' which is strange, but it works!
