Idk, I actually really like the track. The initial bassline is really nice, big Jetpack Joyride theme vibes. I can see why people dislike it though and prefer other experimental SM tracks like IGAB and Zimzalabim, so here's a more cohesive version.
Working on a full version of the r&b/'beat drop' section!

@alliewatches 3 жыл бұрын

I think this revamp gave me exactly what I felt the original was missing: something to fill the empty space. I think the original Next Level was so similar to the F&F track that it ended up sounding like action movie background music rather than a standalone song. Still good music, just a little empty and repetitive for my taste. The extra adlibs, harmonies, and subtle changes in the instrumental here really added to the song, IMO, and it kept the whole thing fresh and interesting without having to rely on a switch-up in the bridge (even though that bridge was my favorite part of the original and it's not here anymore, lol). Props to you, ZSunder!!

@@ZSunder It is better if the producer of Aespa's NEXT LEVEL made a whole music for the switch up part and it's gonna be a bop. Aespa's Next Level switch up part didn't really a good match to the whole song or the most part of the song 'Next Level'. And the switch up part of the song has shown the talent of Karina and Giselle where they're Rappers which makes the switch up part a good part of the song. But again, the switch up part is not a good match for the song.

The overall change made it more pop-sound-conforming and it actually sounds like something f(x) would've sung in their time with some modern/futuristic addition. I really like this one better than the original because you always enrich the song with cool backing sounds and harmonies and never put noisey drums to conform the song into an emd-trap based trend, you simply improve the existing sound by making decent yet impactful adjustments. Amazing work! ❤

I think the original builds up a lot of anticipation and then doesn't commit to going hard in the chorus. While I like the r&b section I think it doesn't fit. I'd rather enjoy it as it's own full and separate song. I'd love to see a mix of the original verse and pre chorus instrumentation with this version's chorus and beat drop.
