Rising Rookie Girl Group NMIXX Selected as Spotify's RADAR KOREA Artist
Tuesday, March 01, 2022
Known as Spotify’s global emerging artist support program, RADAR unveils emerging and talented artists to listeners worldwide, providing them with human and financial resources, editorial support, and both online and offline marketing promotions in the long run. Receiving diversified support from Spotify, the artists selected for the program are given the opportunity to further expand their scope of activities and secure more listeners.
Selected as the first RADAR KOREA artist of the year, NMIXX is comprised of seven members - LILY, HAEWON, SULLYOON, JINNI, BAE, JIWOO and KYUJIN - and officially debuted on February 22 by releasing their single “AD MARE” and its lead track “O.O.” In early February, NMIXX had already unveiled audio liners exclusively on Spotify, greeting their global fans and revealing their music style as well as the messages behind their debut single in multiple languages, including Korean, English, and Spanish.
Spotify plans to support NMIXX’s future moves by launching an active, long-term global marketing campaign, encompassing the production of diverse social contents. It will also be offering NMIXX the opportunity to produce Spotify Singles, allowing them to re-record one of their existing songs in a fresh new way, or cover a song of their choice by one of their own musical heroes.
“Since long ago, Spotify has been serving as one of the most pivotal and trusted partners to JYP and to the growth of South Korea's music industry,” said a JYP spokesperson. "It is meaningful that NMIXX’s relationship with Spotify, which began even before debut, has led to the RADAR KOREA program. We look forward to seeing NMIXX communicate with global K-pop fans through Spotify."
"As we have prepared for a long time, we are very excited to share our music with more listeners and fans around the world through Spotify’s RADAR program,” said NMIXX leader HAEWON. "We hope to grow into a global K-pop group with Spotify’s support.”
“We are very excited to have NMIXX, who have created a fresh breeze in the global K-pop scene, join our first RADAR KOREA program of the year,” said a Spotify spokesperson. "NMIXX is a talented rookie pushing boundaries with their new ‘MIXX POP’ genre through unique voices and sounds, and we are dedicated to supporting them through RADAR, connecting them with more listeners and fans around the globe.”
In the past, globally emerging talents such as The Kid LAROI and girl in red have grown together with Spotify’s RADAR program. RADAR KOREA, designed as part of RADAR, has also been supporting various globally emerging Korean artists - such as Gaho, AleXa, ASH ISLAND, Weeekly, SECRET NUMBER, and TREASURE - and introducing them to Spotify listeners around the world through its RADAR KOREA playlist which officially launched in August 2020.

The single "So Right" is not just a sound; it is a journey that the duo orchestrated to create sensual emotions and provide hope to the listener that love is just around the corner if we can only close our eyes and trust there is. It teases the emotions of “love at first sight” and the butterflies that
come with those feelings. Shaun was in charge of the overall production, composition, and arrangement of the track. Yuna also participated in the composition, while coming up with the lyrics and narrative to drive this production home.
Watch Shaun's So Right Feat Yuna:
Asia's leading artist Shaun and Yuna met last October in a studio in LA and started their musical exchanges. Since then, they have continued to communicate steadily from their respective countries and today have released their joining masterpiece.
Shaun’s voice is strongly depicted through sensuous beats and deep sounds complemented with the snare, finger snaps, and kicks. In addition, Yuna's soft vocals captivate listeners on top of the fascinating guitar sound, completing the sensibility of "So Right." A beautiful creation by both artists, expressing the rollercoaster of emotions perfectly, the high energy, the warm fuzzy feeling, confusion, and sensuality.

Tuesday, March 01, 2022
Watch Wonho's Eyes On You:
The b-side track, “Somebody,” showcases a more vulnerable side of Wonho as a storyteller and songwriter. You can feel the emotions as you fully immerse yourself into the lyrics; “I'm all alone in the world full of strangers. Blank faces staring I'm patiently waiting. I need someone to hold on. Take me back to where I belong.” In an interview Teen Vogue, Wonho compares the feeling of being alone to a wolf; “the feelings behind these lyrics are comparable to the image of a wolf being alone, and left in the dark” he explains.Photo credit: HIGHLINE ENTERTAINMENT
