Check my reblogs of this post to see the rest of them 😊 I'll add more if I ever make more etc,

The group returns now as a 4 piece and new single Ice Cream. Unfortunately no MV, should've spent all their budget on filming at several locations on their first MV.

The song, luckily, is a lot less busy than their debut. It still feels mixed oddly but they're nugus they can't properly afford producers. Still slight improvement in the vocal performance. Ice Cream is just a simple cutesy song with some generic synth, "hey hey" in the back, synth melody and like a toy piano faintly in the back. It's very Kidz Bop but make it nugu 🧐

After some time the group vanished 🫡 we thank you for your service

If you're new here's the playlist with all the song recs 🧐

Seo In Young of Jewelry has started a YouTube channel and today she uploaded a special Jewelry reunion stage!

In the past whenever Jewelry reunites for musical performances it's always been the 2008-2010 lineup of Jungah (1st gen), Seo In Young (2nd gen) and Baby J and Eunjung (both 3rd gen members). Which makes sense because they would always perform their mega hit One More Time, to which those 4 members were the ones during that era.

However this video shows Jungah and Seo In Young joined on stage with Lee Jihyun (1st gen) and Choi Minah (2nd gen), also a special cameo of Baby J at the end but let's focus on the importance of this 4. This lineup together released numerous hits and 3 full length albums and promoted in Japan for a few years together. So this is monumental because it's been over 20 years since we've seen these 4 on stage performing music BUT also this is reunion is also a symbol of healing the sisterhood. Seo In Young got married (though she's divorced now) a few years ago and Choi Minah wasn't invited to the wedding causing some serious online drama, Minah was publicly upset over not getting invited like Jihyun did as well as never getting asked back to reunion performances. However seeing these 4 of stage together again, along with Seo In Young addressing the situation it appears the sisterhood of Jewelry has been healed 💕🥹

The quartet performed their hits Again and Tonight (both released in 2002), I Really Like You (2003) and Super Star (2005). After this time Baby J joins the stage and performs One More Time (2008) with the group. We've never seen Jihyun and Minah perform this song obviously since they left the group so it was nice to see this rendition, granted I believe those two just split Eunjung's parts for the most part, also Jihyun was giving Narsha at the point making it too sexy for laughs 🤣. Afterwards they surprisingly performed Love Story released in 2009. Love Story was an emotional song it was the final song Jungah and Seo In Young were part of and I remember the live stages of them all, minus Jungah being the strong leader, crying a lot 😭 and of course this song sparked some emotion, not just being a nice ballad but also clearly it was nice the the group to be reunited in this way 🥹 a powerful performance!

Tomatomat is back with a new throwback sounding track. Definitely a refreshing track to bring up your spirits. The track came with a new album too 🧐 be sure to check it out !

Remember to support your local nugus 🙏

Below 👇 I included their MV+ YouTube music app audio

Nugu indie trio, Tomatomat, has returned with a nicely packaged mini album!!!

The album is 6 tracks but 3 of them are their first released singles so we got 3 new tracks 🧐

Orange Runway 🍊 is the single and got a cute MV! The song has lots of record scratching and nice late 90s/early 00s retro pop feel, plus the Dance Dance Revolution moments in the MV added to the nostalgia feel.

Lemon & Sherbet 🍋 is reminiscent of their previous tracks sonically with the bossa nova feel. Lots of quirks on the production, fun piano, cowbell, you know that sound of when you're playing with your straw in your soda cup and makes that whoop sound? Yeah that's in the back and it's just a very refreshing and charming track 💕

Lastly we have Collect Call Garage Part II 📞 I was a little nervous because I really liked the original and I didn't want them to mess with it however this part II is charming in its own way and does enough to feel new but also staying faithful to part I. Basically more solid vocal performance, more piano, no random man rapping, it's a nice part II.

Overall a great mini album, nice to see their first 3 tracks packaged on a album. I really enjoy this group, they feel very unique.
