Featured Music: Dinosaur - AKMU

'Sup kids, 

I really like AKMU - fresh, refreshing, cute, sweet, thoughtful, they've got it all. And they're a sibling duo, which is kind of adorable. Plus, Suhyun is close to my age, and I feel like we would be friends (wishful thinking...). 

Anyway, the first time I heard Dinosaur, I was a little weirded out (who names a song Dinosaur?). But give it a chance. Not only do both Suhyun and Chanhyuk's vocals impress any ear, the concept seems creepy yet intriguing, and has a simple but deep representation of a naive idea of the world's problems, representing all that is going wrong by a "monster under the bed" idea of a dinosaur, that the siblings try to search for.

A plus is that the teasers totally looked like a Netflix original series trailer!

The feel of the music is super... vibe, which doesn't make much sense, but you might feel it if you give it a listen. It feels like a breezy day song. 🙂

Here's the M/V: 


And as always, they do an awesome job live. This is a special live version by 1TheK:
