K-Pop Group X:IN Unveils Experimental New Mini-Album 'Hyper'
X:IN, consisting of members Isha, Niz, Nova, Hannah, and Aria, is launching their fourth mini-album 'Hyper', which encapsulates the most aggressive and flexible sound experiments possible at this time.
With this album, X:IN maximizes performance-driven energy by using vocals as a sound layer. Each track features a different genre approach and non-traditional progression, boldly breaking the existing K-POP norms and proving their self-designed musical direction.
The title track 'Dazzle Flash' is an experimental track that stands at the boundary of familiarity and novelty, combining Drift Phonk with a house structure. Its heavy low-end and anti-drop structure heighten the tension, capturing listeners' attention with intensity. The track maintains X:IN's signature powerful energy while expanding the group's musical spectrum.
X:IN's new album, a milestone in proving their value through musical experimentation, is expected to deliver a fresh shock to global fans. Through this release, X:IN aims to solidify their position as irreplaceable artists with unique energy.
Meanwhile, X:IN's fourth mini-album 'Hyper' will be available on various online music platforms today (20th) at 6 PM, with the physical album set for official release on February 27th.
