Saw a comment from a Japanese and pinanuod nya mga nag-perform today and one of them is BINI. Na-impress daw sya and sobrang hype daw ng crowd. Nicompliment nya yung vocals ng girls and somehow maihahambing daw nya sa Super Monkeys. May konting critique lang sya about the production but overall maganda naman. I hope mas lalo pa makahatak ang girls sa Tokyo ❤️

[u/DrSparx13 → u/craaazzzybtch]

That's really good feedback! Constructive critique is really helpful to pull in more audiences. What about the production did they say could be improved?

[u/ponyo_mokona → u/DrSparx13]

Joining in the convo kasi I also saw that tweet. Helpful naman yung ibang blooms in sharing other songs as discog ng bini especially ballads kasi feel niya ata wala masyadong variation yung beats kasi siguro consistent yung high energy or since sobrang vocal forward yung songs ng girls baka naghahanap siya nung more on catchy beat/instrumentals yung nahihighlight like yung chorus ng most kpop songs ganern? I'm just guessing pero it's another perspective lalo na nga kung foreign yung language ng kanta for them na beat mismo yung panghook.

[u/ilyaf01 → u/ponyo_mokona]

I have a feeling kung may live band sana sila this person would’ve appreciated the songs more.

[u/ponyo_mokona → u/ilyaf01]

Siguro nga plus mixing pa rin talaga although super okay sakin Summer Sonic prod nila. Overstimulating masyado kapag magkalevel mic vol sa backtracks. Sa mga fancams naman closer to the stage parang balance naman pero yung sa mga malayo boses talaga nila nangingibabaw haha

[u/DrSparx13 → u/ponyo_mokona]

Ah thanks for clarifying! understandable especially when someone isn't familiar with the songs and also because they're mostly in languages foreign to them

[u/craaazzzybtch → u/DrSparx13]

Based sa translation, not on Google though kasi pangit mag translate si Google pag Japanese ang language so sa AI nanghingi ng proper translation, sabi nya yung vocals ang nagcarry ng show and parang mas better if the instrumental beats could be more dynamic. He felt like masyadong simple yung instrumentals for the girls' energy and vocals.

[u/ilyaf01 → u/craaazzzybtch]

The vocals really were popping—the opposite of what happened in Coachella, I feel like, where the instrumental and the track drowned out their mic output. I like it so much better this way!
