<Album Introduction>
Whee In, 1st Full Album ‘IN the mood’
‘Sound Queen’ Whee In has released her first full album ‘IN the mood’.
Following her second mini-album ‘WHEE’ released last January, Whee In presents a two-part ‘Whee In’ identity through this album ‘IN the mood’.
If ‘WHEE’ showed ‘Deserve’ about ‘valuable me’ with light (輝) as a medium, ‘IN the mood’ aims to show the original human form ‘Beyond’ through the object ‘Whee In’.
This album contains a total of 11 tracks of various genres, including the title track “In The Mood”, “I Know I Know I Know (Beyond)”, “17 (Feat. Hwasa (HWASA))”, “Spark”, “Bite Me (Feat. Kim Haon (HAON))”, “Dance 4 You”, “On The Island”, “Aphrodite”, “Breeze”, “Bittersweet”, and “Here I Am”, which is enough to feel Whee In's limitless and wide musical spectrum.
In particular, the collaboration with ‘Hwasa’, a long-time friend and muse who inspires each other, and rapper ‘Kim Haon (HAON)’, who shows a unique presence anywhere, demonstrates the best synergy and enhances the completeness of the album. In addition, the last track “Here I Am” contains Whee In's musically versatile aspects by writing the lyrics herself.
This album will show various ‘IN the mood’ beyond Whee In that the public thinks of.
01 I Know I Know I Know (Beyond)
Korean Lyrics by Zaya(153/Joombas), Cha Yirene(153/Joombas), Dino Medanhodzic, Johanna Jansson
Composed by Dino Medanhodzic, Johanna Jansson
Arranged by Dino Medanhodzic
As the opening track of the first full album, it unravels the original human form of ‘Beyond’, the theme that penetrates the album, with the message ‘I know that I will overcome myself in any situation’. Whee In's unique delicate emotional line is combined with the dramatic development of the song to maximize the grandeur.
02 In The Mood *
Korean Lyrics by Jang Seungmin (Lala Studio), Jo Yoonkyung, Choi Bora (153/Joombas), Na Doyeon (153/Joombas), Alphabet (153/Joombas)
Composed by Matias Mora, Alida, Joel Sjöö, Cary Singer, Jordan Palmer
Arranged by Matias Mora, Joel Sjöö
The title song “In The Mood” is a medium-tempo pop genre with R&B added, and the lyrics contain the message ‘I want to help you find the Mood inside you’. It is a track that captures the aspect of an all-rounder well enough to think of “In The Mood” if you explain the artist ‘Whee In’ with a song.
03 17 (Feat. Hwasa (HWASA))
Korean Lyrics by Na Jungah (153/Joombas), bay (153/Joombas), Park Jihyun (ARTiffect), Mia (153/Joombas), Ellie Suh (153/Joombas)
Composed by Greg Bonnick, Hayden Chapman, Ylva Dimberg, DEEZ
Arranged by LDN Noise
It is the first official collaboration between ‘Whee In’ and ‘Hwasa’, and it is a hybrid genre track that mixes UK Garage and R&B. It is an attractive song that digests the lyrics ‘When I’m with you, I feel like I’m back to 17 years old’ with each person’s feeling.
04 Spark
Korean Lyrics by Kim Boeun (Jam Factory)
Composed by Ayushy (THE HUB), Frankie Day (THE HUB), Charlotte Wilson, Aaron H, Brian U (THE HUB)
Arranged by Aaron H, Brian U (THE HUB)
“Spark”, which highlights Whee In's powerful vocals, doubles the charm of the song with a bouncy pluck sound, and the lyrics that compare the thrilling moment of falling in love as sparks like fireworks are impressive.
05 Bite Me (Feat. Kim Haon (HAON))
Lyrics by Pumpkin, Kim Haon (HAON)
Composed by Roydo, Konquest, Kim Haon (HAON)
Arranged by Konquest
It is a sexy mood R&B track that makes use of the attractive mid-low voice, and rapper Kim Haon participated in rap making and featuring to add a tense tension to the song and maximize the atmosphere.
06 Dance 4 You
Korean Lyrics by Na Jungah (153/Joombas)
Composed by Ryan Jeon, Adam Yaron, Kella Armitage, Lindsey Lomis
Arranged by Ryan Jeon, Adam Yaron
It is a medium-tempo track in which minimal guitar, bass, and drums harmonize on top of simple and popping piano chords, and Whee In's attractive tone and chill-out vibe stand out.
07 On The Island
Korean Lyrics by Jeon Jieun (Lala Studio)
Composed by Hyuk Shin (153/Joombas), MREY (153/Joombas), Jack Brady, Jordan Roman, Papi Lee, Lilian Caputo, Carly Paige
Arranged by The Wavys, MREY (153/Joombas), Papi Lee
As a modern pop, R&B track, heavy drums and bass harmonize with dreamy synths to create a comfortable and stylish mood. The lyrics that compare a sweet moment with a lover to being on ‘our own desert island’ doubles the romantic atmosphere.
08 Aphrodite
Korean Lyrics by Jo Yoonkyung
Composed by Vendors (YEZI), Vendors (Fascinador), Alina Smith (153/Joombas, LYRE), CALi, 153/Joombas
Arranged by Vendors (YEZI), Vendors (Fascinador)
“Aphrodite”, in which the whistling sound that appears throughout the song captivates the ears, knocks on the hearts of listeners by using synesthetic expressions that stimulate the five senses in the lyrics ‘You make me feel like I’ve become Aphrodite’.
09 Breeze
Korean Lyrics by Ellie Suh (153/Joombas)
Composed by FLUM3N, Maria Marcus
