    One aspect I love about New Jeans beats is that the replay value is insanely high. No matter how many times I’ve heard one of their songs, it will sound just as fresh as the first time I heard it. Big emphasis on the simplicity aspect. Their beats are a perfect balance of chill yet having subtle elements just enough to keep interest. Their songs are produced exceptionally well and listeners notice that. Very well done video!👏🏾

    NewJeans' main producer 250 and FRNK are already one of the best producers in South Korean hip hop scene. Since S. Korean hip hop scene is best in Asia after fall of Japanese hip hop scene, we can say they are top producers in entire Asia. I strongly recommend to listen FRNK and Kim Ximya's colab group XXX's album 'KYOMI' and 'THE LANGUAGE'. You will never regret.

    Thanks for such a thoughtful and astute analysis! I also feel that what makes NewJeans so distinctive is 250's fantastic love and knowledge and incorporations of Trot (which preceeded k-pop as the popular music in korea) - like in those upbeats. It must inform so much of his grooves and drumming and swing - and it feels special that NewJeans' might be going full circle, back to the origins through subtle trot influences!~ it's so clever and meaningful!

    This is a perfect explanation of why me, not even a kpop fan, loves Newjeans...they encompass outside of KPop, and when everyone was trying to be bombastic, they took things back down to earth.
    They're literally standing out by not shouting in a crowd full of people shouting.
    Plus they feel so much more human than a regular idol, I know its probably a persona but they feel more like actual musicians than idols, dating back to the times of late 80's - early/mid 90's alternative era where genuineness and stripping down of music revolutionized the rock music.
    Same as Newjeans taking out the formulaic "belting and rapping and aggressive (or overly cute)" KPop approach, 90's alternative straying away from Glam Metal's "Rockstar Persona", being more human and downright removing the "Guitar Solo" and overcomplicated riffs as a rebellion to that "Guitar Hero" persona....Newjeans is deconstructing how KPop should be approached, and they're bringing in more outside eyes to KPop to their fold. I almost convinced Newjeans is able to exist outside of KPop, that's how unique they are...but this is also, I feel, is why most KPop fans don't like Newjeans, because KPop fans are used to the aggressive, bombastic, and overly cute KPop formula.

    So glad this popped up on my feed. I was heavy on Hip Hop/R&B for decades of my life, even DJ'd and did bedroom producing for a number of years, so I was always a beat-first kinda guy. Fell into Kpop at the top of this year and NewJeans instantly shot up to my Top 5 groups. You hit the nail(s) on why I'm so high on their music! Fairly simple in theory, but expertly crafted sounds that are so hard to ignore to those that are in tune with the beat in the background. They weren't featured here but their newest releases Bubble Gum and How Sweet incorporate everything that was mentioned here, and I love that the singles included the Instrumentals of each (which is something a lot of other Kpop groups do that I absolutely love!)

    Ugh, I LOVE this video. I have a habit of calling things I love “not real”, and NewJeans, is very unreal. I also noticed I’m attracted to very melodically pleasing (?) sounds as like a BASE line. As long as u have that and a little kick in it, be it in ANY genre (my favs being rnb type and Jersey type), IM ON IT. And that’s exactly what NwJns has. And I’ve always wondered what and exactly how their beats differentiated them from other Kpop artists…which is the exact question this video answers so THANK U JOSH BAE 🙏🙏🙏 ur so cool

    what hook me to attention is def the syncope, ppl usually syncope at the middle of the song to add some spice but they just hit it from the start

    As a lifelong pianist, singer, and jazz musician I can say that lots of Kpop is genius. NewJeans is definitely one of the groups that got me into kpop. When I heard Attention for the first time I knew Kpop was something else that no other genre could match. Even Jazz, one of my favorite genres, can be less complex than many kpop songs due it mostly sticking to real instruments and not implementing other genres. Kpop is a mixing pot of all of my favorite genres. (rap/hip-hop, Jazz, R&B, electronic, and even classical) I wished I had discovered it before my mid 20s. The BTS songs I heard in America just didn't sound different enough. Newjeans, Red Velvet, Billie, NCT, Loona they are all different and unique in sound.

    Excellent analysis and put together video. I’m a big fan of their tracks because of those influences like d&b, r&b, uk garage etc.

    3:22 NewJeans producers are picking modern sound with the vintage quality. So it's nostalgic and catchy at the same time. It's literally in their name NewJeans, a modern take on old trend.
    As a music producer use fl studio, glad to find this amazing analyzing video of my favorite kpop group!

    Tbh to me it simply feels they use whatever fits. I'm sure many of you did all that. We have tons of samples spanning many genres and times. We browse through and try to find the best snare that fits no matter the genre or time it comes from, as long as it fits the song. So while we can analyze this and feel like it's intentional to mix these genres and times, it often isn't. Not everyone tries to sound like something else and new "sounds" often comes from messing around rather than be intentional.
