so when is hots vol 2 coming out

i love when the tannies are on set filming and you can hear the staff and production team cracking up at their jokes behind the camera

PRE-CHORUS More every minute, more every hour Inverted perfect 4ths - has the effect of perfect 5ths (famously creates a hollow, empty sound, like it's waiting for a note in the middle to fill it) Oh, kkumin deusi (Wendy sings this alone except for Jin's descending flourish, which is to help him find his next note) Seonmyeonghi beonjyeogal Inverted minor 6ths - has the effect of major thirds (sounds tight and good, this is the most basic interval for vocal harmony) [Note: there is an additional octave gap down for Jin, to create that juxtaposition between his lower voice and Wendy's higher range and to set up the impact of the next line] Gyejeol soge saegigo shi- Same note one octave apart (to really hammer home how much they want to engrave these feelings) -peun, you and Minor 7th*, diminished 5th, major 3rd (This sequence is Wendy rising and Jin descending in equal steps to meet each other at --) me, ah -- the same note, one octave apart. *Note on the minor 7th here: Jin jumps a perfect 4th to hit his extremely jarring, discordant note** on the verb ending (shi)-peun for what Google says is "I want to" and this chord is meant to replicate the sour squeezing of your heart when you want something really badly **the reason why this is so discordant is that actually this minor 7th is an inverted major 2nd, which is two white keys on the piano separated by a black key. It is so... so... close... yet so far... nearly there... but the effect it makes played together sounds like a toddler randomly keyboard smashing, it sounds horrible.

BRIDGE Oh, I'll love you better This time, inverted perfect 5ths - has the effect of perfect 4ths (creates a lingering sound, always wants to resolve to tonic [home key]. Also this interval is the flipped version of what's happening at the start of the pre-chorus) Oh, I'll love you better Inverted minor 6ths - has the effect of major 3rd (sounds gooood; Jin has risen one note here to make this sound good) Yaksok- Inverted perfect 5th again - effect of perfect 4th (lingering) -hae nae mameul saegyeo Same note, one octave apart - singing the same note, in sync, saying that they are one in their commitment to their promise Oh, I'll love you better than Same as previous line - reinforcing that their hearts are aligned Oh, I'll love you better Inverted major 3rds - effect of minor 6ths (dissonant, something feels off about it, like pining. What is happening in the melody line is that Wendy keeps bringing it one step higher and higher [think Christine in the Phantom of the Opera]. And what Jin is doing here is he's actually leapt a perfect 5th up in his harmonic line to try to catch up to Wendy - closing the gap from 8 notes to 5 notes...) Oh, I'll love you better Same as previous line With my heart on the Same note one octave apart (...except they find themselves split again...) window Inverted perfect 5ths again - perfect 4th effect (...and ending up with that lingering sound again.) Note: the effect of the perfect 4th always wanting to resolve to the tonic (home key) is called the "amen" cadence as it is usually used to end hymns in classical music. So if you have heard the ending of a hymn before, think of that second last note that is just lingering, the "a--" before the "--men". That's how these 'effect of perfect 4th's are supposed to make you feel, like it's teetering and close to completion. (Note: I didn't name the cadence, centuries of classical music theory did)

Oh, oh oh oh oh Oh, oh oh oh oh Oh-oh-oh, oh All the same note, one octave apart Oh, oh, oh Inverted major 6th (effect minor 3rd) Inverted perfect 4th (effect perfect 5th) Same note, one octave apart This sequence is Jin and Wendy again taking the same equal steps... but this time in opposite directions 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 because of this motion, the last note has the effect of them being on the same note but FAR APART 😭

Heart on the Window

-- a music theory explanation for why the harmonies sound so good whenever Jin and Wendy sing together, and the way the duetted harmonies underpin the story of the song

i've always wanted to see bts do an extended ver so this is just perfect

RUNNING WILD EXTENDED VER LETS GO

NEVER MET BUT SHE'S ALL I SEE AT NIGHT 🗣

seokjin's playlist being soft pop ballads and rock, and how he said in the past that he wants to try making cheerful music... it just makes sense

one of my favorite things in chap 2 so far is when the members post their music recommendations and you can see how the music they listen to influenced their own solo projects because it further proofs that they're each doing /exactly/ what they want creatively lol

march 2019

when you really think about it, if bts move to this app, that means other kpop groups will start opening accounts too which means kpop twt will all start to come here and all the negativity will carry over from twitter

absolutely obsessed with jin's album

OH MY GOD

LMAOOO HE GOT SCARED

i missed most of yesterday because i was babysitting 🥲 thank god i'm here now

every once in a while i pick up a call from an unknown number hoping it's not scam or advertising but it always is
