Tei and Handsome People ask “Shall We Dance”

5

More than just three guys with pretty faces, FLUXUS Muisc newbie group, Handsome People, are making beautiful music to my ears too.

The lead singer of the group is no stranger to the KPOP stage-Tei is already well known as a balladeer and has a discography of 5 albums under his belt. Many netizens have been extremely pleasantly surprised by Tei’s foray into another genre of music with Handsome People, and are already deeming it a success. Here’s a serious jack-of-all-KPOP-trades, folks. To wit, here is Tei singing the classic KPOP ballad, “I Have a Lover” on Kim Jung Eun’s Chocolate last year:

However, Handsome People are not balladeers. Having signed with FLUXUS, it’s a given that they will produce indie fare, but what exactly is their musical style?

Judging from their first single, “Shall We Dance”, I would describe their sound as electronic, easy-listening lounge music, with some jazz notes tossed in. Maybe ambient house? Whatever it is, though, I am LOVING it.

 

And shall we dance? Oh, you bet I am.

    I like the song, but the group’s name is ridiculous. Then again, most KPOP groups have less than stellar names. Handsome people? Could you imagine them introducing themselves in English. “Hello we’re Handsome People!”

    his cover of I have a lover is amazing. I want to hear him with Davichi singing this cover. I think that would be amazing.

    I like Shall We Dance also. The fusion style is sooo right up my alley.

    I like the sound, but I hate the MV. WAY too many girls without self-respect, and WAY too many gratuitous shots… ugh.
