Official Description[]
트와이스가 6월 1일 미니 9집 'MORE & MORE'를 발매한다.
트와이스는 긍정적이고 건강한 에너지를 극대화한 새 앨범을 통해 눈으로 한 번 귀로 한 번 감동을 선사한다. 전작 'Feel Special' 이후 9개월 만에 컴백이자 2020년 발표하는 첫 신곡으로 음악팬들의 갈증을 해소한다.
타이틀곡 'MORE & MORE'는 사랑의 설렘과 달콤함이 무르익을 때 상대를 더 갈망하게 되는 감정을 담은 곡이다. 트로피컬 하우스 리듬으로 트렌디함을 배가했다. 후렴에는 화려한 퍼포먼스에 집중할 수 있게 악기 소리를 배치했다.
'SIGNAL', 'What is Love?', 'Feel Special' 등 트와이스 대표곡을 만든 JYP엔터테인먼트 수장 박진영은 'MORE & MORE' 작사와 편곡을 맡았다.
가요계 흥행 보증 수표인 이들이 다시 만나 활동곡 기준 ‘13연속 히트’를 정조준한다.
‘MORE & MORE’ 뮤직비디오는 생생한 색감과 빛을 이용해 매혹적이고 강렬한 느낌을 자아낸다. 동화에서 나올 법한 환상적인 오브제들로 시각적 즐거움을 안긴다. 아홉 멤버들은 숲속 여신으로 변신해 신비롭고 몽환적인 분위기를 극대화한다. 여기에 제주도에서 촬영한 기하학적인 수중 세트 위 군무 장면으로 눈을 뗄 수 없게 만든다.
새 앨범 'MORE & MORE'에는 동명의 타이틀곡을 비롯해 'OXYGEN', 'FIREWORK', 'MAKE ME GO', 'SHADOW', 'DON’T CALL ME AGAIN' 그리고 'SWEET SUMMER DAY'까지 총 일곱 트랙이 수록됐다.
샤이니 'View', 레드벨벳 'Dumb Dumb’, 태연 'Why' 등 다수의 히트곡을 작곡한 영국의 작곡가 팀 LDN Noise를 비롯해 트와이스 'Heart Shaker' 등을 작업한 Sean Michael Alexander, EXO 'Tempo'를 작사한 JQ 등 화려한 작가진이 모였다.
미니 2집 ‘PAGE TWO’부터 꾸준히 곡 작업을 해온 트와이스 역시 신보 수록곡에 참여했다. 나연은 'MAKE ME GO'를 단독 작사하고, 'SWEET SUMMER DAY'는 정연과 채영이 각각 작사, 랩 메이킹을 맡았다.
'K팝 대표 걸그룹'이라는 수식어를 거머쥔 트와이스는 매 컴백마다 색다른 시도를 선보이고 있다. 이번에도 새 앨범명 ‘MORE & MORE’처럼 더욱더 이끌리는 매력을 펼칠 예정이다.
