Mini-Interview with Idiotape

posted in Articles, Interviews on March 9, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

So a little while ago I realized that while I’ve been eagerly posting updates on Apollo 18 and their impending US tour I had spent much less effort covering the whereabouts of the bands participating in the Seoulsonic North American. I also realized that I haven’t kept up with Idiotape at all since first discovering… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with J Rabbit

posted in Interviews on March 3, 2011 by Anna 4 Comments

I first came across the music of J Rabbit on YouTube as I was catching up on the Bugs charts in January. I was instantly charmed by the sweet songs performed by what seemed like two lovely girls but couldn’t get around to follow it up. As I learned that they had an album coming… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with auhm

posted in Interviews, Samples on February 14, 2011 by Anna 1 Comment

Last summer Donawhale‘s Youn Sung Hoon began updating his blog with some of his own demo recordings. I already had the greatest respect for the music he’d made with Donawhale (아카시아 being one of my very favorite songs) and was thrilled to hear what he could make all on his own. A few weeks ago… Continue reading →

Pleasant People mini-interview

posted in Interviews, Movies on January 18, 2011 by Anna 2 Comments

You may recall previous posts mentioning indie film Pleasant People here on Indieful ROK, as it stars Jiyoung Lee of I Love JH and Oh My Melodies fame. Not unlike the short film with the same name, if you can recall it, the plot is centered around singer/songwriter Jiyoung as she strives to get one… Continue reading →

Mini-Intervew with Apollo 18

posted in Interviews, Samples on January 17, 2011 by Anna 4 Comments

Yesterday SXSW announced another round of bands for the festival and this time they included Apollo 18 (must say I’m both surprised and happy to see Indieful ROK quoted). The band also aspires to do a bit of touring while out of the country – check here if you think there’s anything you could do… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Yang Jungmo

posted in Interviews on January 7, 2011 by Anna 3 Comments

Two weeks ago, on christmas eve, the word of some guy wearing a GMC Records t-shirt on TV started spreading on Twitter. Turns out it was the vocalist of Sweet Guerillaz showing off some very impressive vocal skills in MBC’s new idol making show Star Audition: 위대한 탄생. I watched his YouTube clip from the… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Swimmingdoll

posted in Interviews on December 18, 2010 by Anna 5 Comments

Over the past year I’ve heard a bit about Swimmingdoll but never gotten around to giving the band a listen. Then last week I got an email with a MySpace link from Vanillacoke saying the first Swimmingdoll album should be out soon (I love those kinds of emails by the way, although I receive them… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Image

posted in Interviews on December 6, 2010 by Anna 1 Comment

One thing I like about collecting those indi charts from Bugs is how it makes me aware of music I would’ve missed otherwise. Back in September I learned of the existence of Image and I didn’t have to spend long on YouTube before I took a liking to her and wanted to find out more…. Continue reading →

Mini interview with Bobbyville

posted in Interviews, Samples on November 22, 2010 by Anna 1 Comment

Last month I finally set up Spotify at work (a music streaming service often touted as the answer to illegal file sharing in Sweden) and after giving Indieful ROK’s Spotify Korean indie music collection playlist a spin I soon found myself listening to Bobbyville. When I first heard The Men Of The 3M some five… Continue reading →

Mini interview with Autumn Vacation

posted in Interviews on November 14, 2010 by Anna 0 Comments

Since I first laid ears on Autumn Vacation‘s super lovely self-titled song 가을 방학 I’ve wanted more. I’ve admired Bobby Chung‘s songs for about as long as I’ve been listening to Korean indie music, and Gyepy‘s vocals appeal to me like no other female vocals can. The combination was fantastic, and I’ve been curious to… Continue reading →
