WONK - Midnight Cruise

전주에서부터 subtle한 그루브가 마음을 사로잡는다. 요즘 확실히 어떤 장르든 이런 흑인음악 요소가 섞인 형태가 유행하는 것 같다. 블랙뮤직이라 퉁쳐 말하지만 워낙 방대한 영역이긴 한데, 각 하위 장르들의 확장성과 OOO이 정말 대단한 것 같다.

일본 태생의 이 팀은 정말 다양한 음악을 들려준다. 이 곡이 실린 앨범 <Castor>는 <Pollux>와 함께 더블앨범 형식으로 발매되었다고 하는데, 자세한 내용은 링크를 참조하자. 실험적이고 재미있는 곡이 많아서 쭉 들어봄직한 것 같다.

WONK - Midnight Cruise (가사)

It comes at midnight

I'm breathing this dusting air

A genuine desire

Gradually comes to me

Getting lost with dried tears

It's the start of our midnight cruise

Struggle with fear

They are chuckling silently

We have Lost in this world in tears

Is it thoroughly unreal?

Living in this world, can you hear?

What we see seems always apart

Is it thoroughly unreal?

And is it hard to stay with me?

How do we know the way we are walking on is correct?

We are still too young reckless

So we can keep on, just keep on straining around

To find the waning moon.

We are in the midnight

On the road to the paradise

They have already gone

It's higher than that stars above

We'll choose the way we go

We'll lose someone in love with

We'll cruise on the ship half broken

So smooth, the touch of the water
