Dramatic Makeover Contest [FINISHED]

✧ Luminous Music Entertainment ✧ Collab Archive

 

The theme for May is all about the drama~ We're planning to open collabs on several drama ost this month, so any suggestions? But while we're also finishing up our remaining collab, it's time to prepare for our next contest which is just as equally fun and maybe even weirder than the first one! Whooo~ And there is a longer deadline, so hopefully more teams will apply to this? :D

  • Form a group of 2 people 
  • Choose a K-Pop song that doesn't usually fit your voice or genre
  • Now change it dramatically and sing it in a totally different way!
    (With these we mean, sing a hip hop song using cutesy style. Sing a bubblegum pop song in an overly y way. Do anything that will give the song a completely different feel from the original. Some ideas: Candy Jelly Love with a deep hip hop swag feel, or Gangnam Style as an emotional ballad XD)

Of course, we have provided an example again. DON'T LAUGH! WE TRIED!!! And to all BTS fans, we apologize... We do love the song, but thought it was the best one to represent our voices for this contest. We remade the swag song into a flirty/cutesy/y style. XD

  • Zoe is rapping! Woww!!! Chrystal still sounds so swag XD Could've been more dramatic indeed, this sounds as a legit good cover :p
  • Its sound good but I'm not really enjoyed it. Like when you cook but you missed a little ingredient. so.......
  • The voice of BAP is a bit distracting my feels of this laidback No Mercy feels, make it feels a bit lacking

  • Would've wanted you to try singing it differently with the normal instrumental, cause this is more for an acoustic/slow version which will be a future contest XD It is still nice nonetheless :) Also wished there were more harmonies :p
  • Okey! this one is dramatically diferrent LOL.
  • The raps doesnt get into the song that much. It feels a bit out of place. And I feel like with piano, you could put more jazzy-ish feels and more ballad. And like Mel said, we kinda wanted a normal instrumental and we apologized for not making it clearer in instruction.

  • I love the idea of the remix, even though it wasn't exactly what we were thinking of with the dramatic singing. This is still a really great cover and your 12+ hours is worth it!
  • I REALLY LOVE THE MASH UP but i dont know you thought dramatically different as mash up even tho i like this idea this is fresh and cool.
  • Actually Mel, you got to them credit to them, they are the only group that makes it really different. A dramatic change to the song. The idea is good but the song feels a bit lacking. I really love the harmonize. I think it would be cool if you make the part niliya mambo as adlibs when chorus tick tock is being sing to make it bit more swag (would be kinda a cool contrast, I think)
  • But since this is based off on someone else's remix, I couldn't give full marks for originality :p

  • Is the Korean & Japanese mix on purpose? This song is like a key lower than the original. Wished some parts could have some additional swag or "YO" added to it :3
  • So i guess you try to sing it in swag wayy?? well its good but its abit lacked swag i guess... add somethng like hard breath/ yo like mel said would be even better
  • I like you adjust the song to a lower key, cuz I kinda knows your both vocal range thus its only smart to make it lower (in a way its a dramatic or yes to make it swag.

  • I noticed the dramatic aegyo change during Run, not really during 365. Would've been more fun if you went all out and exagerated things.
  • I agree that runs have more changed than 365.
  • Oh the marshmellow intro.365 brings y feels? And I ws waiting at minute 1:40. Omaigod the cuteness in Run! Aigoo.

 

Again thank you for all your participation and hard work! Good job Star <3
