[Album Introduction]

Profiles of the Future (Λ) : 70%

A-idol 1st generation, SUPERKIND is finally back as a complete group of 7!

SUPERKIND, who met Sejin through their first digital single and Seung through their second single, is revealing their complete group of 7 to the world for the first time through this mini-album. True to their slogan "2Dx3D, Dimensions Assemble!", this album, inspired by the anime 'Cowboy Bebop' and the movie 'Men in Black' and produced by placing 2D and 3D elements in the right places, unravels the fun that only SUPERKIND can show in the SF chase genre.

Furthermore, SUPERKIND has expanded the interactive elements that SUPERKIND boasts to music through this mini-album. 'Mugshot', the last track of the album, is the only song that has passed all the quests and was produced and released among the many candidate songs of the 'Social Music Mining Game' with SUPERKIND members and players. When listening to this song, players can not only enjoy the music but also recall and experience the thrill and excitement they felt while clearing the quests together during the gameplay.

[Track List]

1. Beam me up (2Dx3D)

A song that sound-wise embodies SUPERKIND's slogan "2Dx3D, Dimensions Assemble!". It was created based on 'images' that go back and forth between reality and virtual reality. By utilizing the characteristics of acoustic and digital sounds to convey the feeling of different dimensions, and at the same time, naturally connecting (assemble) the two songs using rhythms and harmonies of the same motif, a SUPERKIND-like sound was created.

2. Speed (2D)

A reinterpretation of the anime 'Cowboy Bebop', which greatly inspired the 2D part of this album, into a KPOP sound. It is a band sound song that evokes the atmosphere of an anime opening song by using only guitars and basses for all harmony instruments. The Japanese lyrics used to convey the atmosphere and texture of the 2D animation that served as the motif are characteristic.

3. Beam me up (3D)

A song that reinterprets the movie 'Men in Black', which greatly inspired the 3D part of this album, into a K-pop sound. The rhythm of the kick and bass is used in a unique and fun way, and the magnificent yet cool atmosphere of a chase scene is beautifully captured. In contrast to Speed, which features an analog band sound, a digital and modern sound is used to express the atmosphere of SF more intensely.

4. Mugshot (SMMG)

A song that unravels the SF chase unfolding in this album from the perspective of the five wanted criminals of PRID.

It transcends genre boundaries through the captivating fusion of Latin drill music and K-pop, embracing the diversity of global music. The distinct guitar sound leads the infectious groove of this song, and it connects to the guitar sound of the previous track, Speed, to prolong the lingering feeling.

SUPERKIND plans to add more fun with various interactive elements in terms of music in the future, using this song, which was first produced through the Social Music Mining Game, as a cornerstone.
