[Recall 2007] A Meeting with Omega 3

posted in Interviews on December 8, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

This article written after an interview with Omega 3 was edited by Philip Gowman and first published on London Korean Links. It’s been almost two years since they released their debut album and Omega 3 are now back, holding concerts again. As Alpha Beat has become one of my all time favourite albums, I was curious to… Continue reading →

[Recall 2007] A Meeting with itta

posted in Interviews on December 7, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

This article written after an interview with itta was edited by Philip Gowman and first published on London Korean Links. While I’ve come across some more or less experimental Korean music over the years, nothing had prepared me for itta (있다). I was swept away by the 11th track on her first official album, “11″,… Continue reading →

[Recall 2007] A Meeting with Bloody Cookie

posted in Interviews on December 6, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

This article written after an interview with Bloody Cookie, the girl rock band now known as Story Seller, was edited by Philip Gowman and first published on London Korean Links. In 2005 I came across a band making music unlike anything I had previously heard coming out of South Korea: Bloody Cookie. A few weeks ago… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Swann

posted in Interviews on October 5, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

Picture taken by Sei RheeThe first experimental rock band in Korea was Yellow Kitchen and the band soon became something of a pioneer in electronic music. The split album they did with Crying Nut, Our Nation, was the first Korean punk album. Almost a decade after I first came across the band I still find… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Mighty Coala

posted in Interviews, Releases, Samples on October 3, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

I first learned of the existence of Mighty Coala when Janet made an artist overview for the band. Always one to enjoy some sweet pop I’ve been waiting for a release since, and a couple of weeks ago I learned that Mighty Coala has a full length album coming out. Seizing the opportunity I approached… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Kayip

posted in Interviews, Samples on September 12, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

I’ve been curious to learn more about producer Kayip since finding all of those titles in Swedish on his first EP, but was too shy to ask even though I really enjoyed the music. Since a few weeks back his new album Theory of Everything is out and figuring it was at least worth a… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with The Figure8

posted in Interviews on August 21, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

I’m still much to happy on the rare occasion that a Korean band approaches Indieful ROK rather than the other way around. Thus when electronic live band The Figure8 told me about their upcoming single project that they were trying to fund it by donations I was very excited to learn more, interview style. Unfortunately… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with Jiyeon Kim

posted in Interviews, Samples on August 3, 2011 by Anna 2 Comments

I think most music loving people have somebody they can rely on for recommendations. For me one such person is icq4ever, so when I found him sharing a new SoundCloud favorite on Twitter I had to check it out. His new favorite was Dear May from Jiyeon Kim and it didn’t take long before it… Continue reading →

Mini-Interview with MDS

posted in Interviews on July 27, 2011 by Anna 0 Comments

I’ve mentioned on a few occasions that I’m much too fond of covers. Under some circumstances this extends to remixes as well, so I was more than a little intrigued when I first came across MDS and their Hongdae music remixes. Very curious to find out more I approached the duo with questions concerning the… Continue reading →

Interview with Dear Cloud

posted in Interviews on July 17, 2011 by Widhi 6 Comments

One day, Anna asked me to write about Dear Cloud. As I am a very big fan of them, I was super duper excited. So, I decided to contact Dear Cloud and had an interview. They just released their 3rd album, Bright Lights, last month. An album that has been definitely awaited by the legions… Continue reading →
