Electronic/Industrial/Trip-pop Korean duo “KAFKA” bring change to the Korean music scene
Here at FarEastVibes we like to inform you of mainstream, up-and-coming, and underground artists of all genres, introducing you to talents that you may never have heard of, or thought existed. After some searching around I came across a Korean, multi-genre duo called KAFKA (made up of members Chaeyoung and Changyeol), and instantly fell in love. My CD order is already on its way.

There’s many genres I enjoy, from Khiphop to Japanese pop, but when it comes to a style of music that I consider my favorite, KAFKA is a group that sums up my tastes perfectly. It’s the kind of music that attracts a certain type of listener, but still possesses qualities that everyone can relate to. Lyrically the songs are meaningful, but the music alone can place you in a completely different world, making some of your inner most feelings come to the surface. If heard live, KAFKA would completely entrance the audience, making every fan vibe off a universal energy. Simply put, it’s music from the soul that can be felt on a physical level.

There’s so much more to say about this group, but I don’t want to carry on too much with my opinions before you listen to them in depth for yourselves. One last thought, though: I’d love to see them come to America for a show, and I know I’m not the only one out there who feels the same.
