    SOOOOO proud of Dreamcatcher getting their first two wins with this song!!! I was hesitant in posting our reaction to this song since the
    crew had overall more critical opinions than usual, but in the end, I decided that even their more negative comments were interesting enough
    to hear! Feel free to disagree with anything we said haha :)

      I'm in the minority but I loved the song on first listen and I loved it even more on re-listens, it's very different and the consistency in energy was rather refreshing to me instead of boring, I listen to kpop more than casually so I got super used to low energy pre-chorus transition into hard drop or anti-drop chorus, my only actual complaint about this cb was the music video and use of CG, also I'm always up for DC doing something different, and it will hit differently for different people always and forever, wasn't the biggest fan of odd eye on its first release but now I love it a lot, I think this song has one thing that isn't existing in the rest of DC songs and that is something I call a trendibility, it's a very certain type of catchy that is easy for people to sing along to/chant and therefore has an easier time accessing trending status which is why it got them their first win imo

      @@TJ_Sind2000 People over stigmatize the use of CG in Kpop MVs. There's nothing wrong with using CG, especially when it can achieve visuals just not possible otherwise plus they wanted to minimize their environmental impact for the production of the MV. Not everyone is a large boy group or Blackpink and have companies that can just waste a huge amount of money to try and do everything with sets and even they would be hard pressed to create an apocalypse without it.

      @@TJ_Sind2000 You do understand that not everyone can do it the best way possible because that costs a lot more time and money. The CG here looks better than some other Kpop videos and the lighting is good / blended well for the most part which is where cg usually screws up. No one else is really doing it to this level for a full video, so I think for what it is it turned out pretty good. Maybe it's just my perspective of having watched CG develop since the very beginning that most things today look great by comparison. After all it's just a music video and won't look like the latest blockbuster film or top rated video game, unless you're a major player who can spend whatever it takes. Problem is as I've observed there just tends to be a default bias in kpop against cg, likely built up by the bragging of the big 3 over their lavish sets they build (which do look great, but is also just another way for them to suppress competitors and I'm not here for that).

    Personally I felt that Maison was one of their weaker comebacks, not bad but compared to Scream, Because, Odd Eye the chorus felt lacking.

      They already featured in Classical Musicians way earlier from the Chase Me and Good Night era but with a different group of musicians.
      Imo, their best group reaction for Dreamcatcher is the Deja Vu/Silent Night video as almost all of them has something to say with Dreamcatcher's 2 songs musically of course.
      And this channel do react to some of their B-sides and albums. So we can say that this channel really helped Dreamcatcher to be exposed to a lot of people who are cool or just curious with K-pop in general.

    Agreed with a lot of the cast. I didn't quite know why the chorus didn't resonate with me as much as past title tracks but the lack of textural change makes a lot of sense. But the evolution of the chorus is fantastic and Dami's verse is one of her best IMO. Really compelling rhythmic flow.

      the one note chorus is probably there so that all the members can sing it. usually the chorus is reserved for the vocal line. they did it in scream in my opinion... the "devil eyes come" had gahyeon and dami finally be part of the chorus
      the rest of the song is quite technically difficult to sing imo.... it's so easy to sing the chorus in contrast so it might invite more ppl in or smth idrk

    My biggest critique of this song is that awesome bass line is so low in the mix. It's there, and once you notice it, it's fantastic, but it does get washed out a bit. Maison definitely grew on me, but I was underwhelmed on first listen. Got that first win though, and that's huge. I felt like a proud parent, and actually shed a few tears, which is weird for me. I'm usually not very emotional. Great reaction and analysis as always! Keep up the good work.

  • @joaoneves8544

    I do think this song leaves you with some sort of uneasiness (the chorus itself just comes with no build up, the bridge, the massive outro), and I think that was the big objective of Leez and Ollounder here. It's that we shouldn't be too comfortable in our planet. I know this is a bit of a stretch, but since this comeback came out that I thought about this and I just think it's a nice way to interpret the way this song was built.

    one thing I loved about this is how different this sound is for Dreamcatcher. Just like when they came with Scream, which was a whole another approach to their sound to start off a new trilogy.
    And I'm VERY biased because I'm an insomnia lol it was far from what I expected from the teasers (JiU's pre bridge), but it still amazed, especially with that climax at the end. There's definitely an anxiety rise, like Raffy pointed out, which took it to another level!

    Maison grew on me although i still had mixed feelings. didn’t know why except for the obvious (same-y chorus, abrupt transition to the bridge, the mixing). thanks to the reactors for not only breaking down what’s happening in the song that made me feel ehh initially. but also for the commentary on how the songs construction works to support the lyrics message. it’s made me hear the song in a new way. still one of my least favorite dreamcatcher title tracks but i understand it better now.

    I found the first-vs-final chorus chromaticism too and it's also the best part of the song for me! I realized it when listening casually using headphones and it just felt SO satisfying, realizing the progression is different. I don't know why I didn't realize it during the first listen (maybe I was too distracted by the mv lol) because it really emphasize the final/end of the song just like how a lot of the comments said it felt so grand & epic, and I also like what Raffi interpreted the ending as feeling rushed/time is running out - just like the message of the song about climate change emergency. Maison isn't my top/favorite DC title track as well, but its meaning + Dami's rap and that final chorus still makes it SUCH a good song 🤩

  • @MoopOwO
    @MoopOwO Před 2 lety +27

    If it makes you feel better, one of my biggest gripes with reaction content is that its not negative ENOUGH. I get everyone likes music and picking it apart but i feel like people are often focusing too much on what they liked and ignoring what they didnt like, but i actually wanna hear about what they didnt like. For me personally, this is one of my favorite title tracks. Im a big fan of songs that are just pure upbeat energy, so the repetition in this song for me is cancelled out by how its all gas no breaks. Even the bridge, which is by far my favorite part, still keeps that energy with that anxiety building grand scale and orchestral inclusion, really hammers in that sense of urgency and even lyrically the sense of collapse. When the teaser for the song came out, i did notice how flat and not very catchy the chorus was and found it kind of offputting at first. It felt very unlike dreamcatcher and kpop in general to have such a...straight line chorus. But i thought about it and chalked it up to the message of the song being the forefront and the actual song being made less flashy so people would focus less on the melody and choreography and more on the lyrics. As unique as dreamcatcher tends to be this is probably one of their most unique songs in that regard and i can understand why it doesnt appeal to a lot of people, it took me quite a few listens to really get over that sense of strangeness and enjoy it more. I dont know if you have any plans to check out the full album (if you already havent) but i think some of the solos would make good reactions, otherwise yall should check out the new kard comeback! Im not seeing them get a lot of love from kpop reactors and that needs to change, their comeback is incredible!

      I thought the song was okay when it first came out but it grew on me with every listen. Especially since I was helping stream the song to get their first win, I was listening to it quite often. Now it’s quickly becoming one of my top 5, if not my top 3. When I get in the car for a drive it’s the one song I feel like playing. My 4 year old daughter also plays this song nonstop on her phone. It’s an old iPhone that has like 4 songs and she uses it for CZcams and games. I keep telling her that if she keeps playing it, that it might get played out but I still keep rocking to it every time she plays it and I mean she plays it on a loop. 😂 I whistle the melody just before the “La Maison” part throughout the whole day and when my daughter hears it she always sings “La Maison La La La Maison”.

It's not that we are not trying the real change starts with people. If we change our daily lifestyles as simple as using reusable bags to supermarket or not having 800 showers for 2 hours a day we can do so much. Change and progress can happen once we make change

    I'm one of the few who I feel loved this first listen, it instantly became one of my fav titles by them, however I totally understand others not finding it as good as their past tracks! For me, the bridge, final chorus, and outro make up for the lack of texture change in the beginning. Those parts make me want to cry from how anthemic they are. Also, ngl but Maison was definitely made for the purpose to be played live! Almost everyone was singing it last night in Louisville, and that outro was one of the best moments of the concert for me :)

    I've been waiting for this reaction! I love these observations detailing how the song itself feels like its running out of time and like its incomplete? like we need a pt2/3 which is exactly what dcc is doing. The producers really knew how to invoke emotions really well

  • @jadenseph1809
    @jadenseph1809 Před 2 lety +2

    I love you guys.. so genuine with your thoughts. Although i don't understand the technical terms at all. But i get the gist of it. The producers were really brave to take the risk with the song but all went well and it's one of my favourite now because it sounds really different from other songs.
    Welcome to the Dreamworld to that guy.

    Great video! The mix on the CZcams video is way weirder compared to the mix on like Spotify, for example.

  • @skyakd
    @skyakd Před 2 lety +8

    I was surprised at how groovy it was the more I listened to it on Spotify, definitely a grower. Maybe its just me but I felt the difference compared to the audio in the MV. I also agree with the criticism from you guys, part of it might be the change based on our expectations from previous TTs but also some things like the guitar distortion distracting me from the vocals which could have been louder. They were able to do this before, as in have clear and loud vocals with busy instrumentals, like in Endless Night, Good Night and others. The song mixing could definitely have been better especially considering how good the mixing is in all the other songs in the album, especially in my favourite group b-side "Locked inside a door" but also the solos.
    But I think the way the songs flows and is structured, lends beautifully to the urgency and sense of dread of the message they are trying to convey, which I think is genius on Ollounder and Leez's part.
    Also 1st and 2nd win finally 😭😭😭
    P.S. - We need more dreamcatcher b-side breakdowns or album listen please ❤️ and thanks for a great video 🙂

    Dreamcatcher was invited to the Primavera Sound, Europe's largest music festival, last month and performed in full on a solo stage, and is now touring various cities in the United States. I went to see Dreamcatcher's New York concert. Dreamcatcher's concert was the best as you may know. It was such an amazing and fantastic concert ! 😍

  • @ggdaddy6676

    Umu, your reaction videos are about 200 cuts above the rest, and this was really a good one -- I especially liked the musical graphics illustrating the keys and scales and harmonics, which is so helpful to this fervent but poorly educated musical amateur. Thank you for your amazing work!
    As for the criticisms, I'll just echo what a lot of folks have been saying -- please give us more, we can handle it, especially when the criticisms are informative and sincere and don't descend into childish pissing. I found this song underwhelming at first, probably due to the relative lack of structural and melodic sophistication, but it has grown on me amazingly -- and now I realize it's how the musical simplicity helps to clarify the underlying concept, and how that long major-key outro ties everything together to create such a sense of urgency. They hit that final section like a freight train, and the emotional impact is stunning. What more could you want from a song? For me, the positives completely overwhelm the negatives -- and I sensed some of your commenters coming around to this view as the discussion proceeded, which was interesting in itself.

  • @yaochen7593
    @yaochen7593 Před 2 lety +16

    First time listen to "Maison", I was fascinated by the intro and Dami's rap part, but when it came to the bridge, I didn't like the "sudden" change, to be honest. I was hoping for a very nice final chorus too, otherwise my first feeling to "Maison" won't be so nice. And indeed we got a beautiful final chorus and I was so satisfied! The last part of Maison really quality improving!
    Actually i quite like all those "overall more critical opinions"😆 really help to know more about the song!
    And we (most likely) got a new insomina!! 😊

  • @spiralwarrior6569
    @spiralwarrior6569 Před 2 lety +7

    Yes, Dreamcatcher are touching on a very important subject here. Previously they talked about online hate, now they are tackling an issue that impacts the whole planet and therefore everyone. Climate change is going to affect all of us, and it is already affecting many people. Island Nations will disappear under the ocean ("Save my home in the ocean"). Ice melts in the arctic and displaces people ("Save my home in the polar"). Forests get decimated by corporate greed and habitats get destroyed ("Save my home in the jungle") and disappearing glaciers and snow packs result in even less water for deserts ("Save my home in the desert").
    People have a natural tendency to ignore issues that seem to be in the future - but climate change is here, right now. We can't wait anymore, and it is good that Dreamcatcher use their platform to promote change: "Break your habit now!"
    Musically I really enjoy the song. Like in BEcause, the rock/metal vibe is dialed back a bit, but it is still there and highly distorted. Although the more I listen to it, the more Rock I hear. I especially like how the pre-chorus and chorus seems to appear out of nowhere, the chord progression in the bridge, and the epic end part. The bass line is crazy as well. LEEZ and Ollounder have done it again, and the members are just brilliant.

  • @CoolAsura

    한국사람인데 현 한국사람들은 락보다는 댄스곡을 좋아해 믹스를 댄스곡으로 한것같아 전앨범들에 비해 한국에서 조금더 알려졌지만 약간 전앨범들에 비해 락적인 요소가 흐려진게 아쉽지만 이것대로 좋았음 우리나라에서는 일단 이판에서 살아남아야 다시 락적인요소를 다시 해볼수있으니까 대중적인걸 좀더 선택한것 아닌가 생각합니다.
    I'm Korean, but current Koreans like dance songs more than rock, so I thought the mix was a dance song. Compared to the previous albums, it was a little more known in Korea, but it's a pity that the rock elements were blurred compared to the previous albums, but it was good as it is. In Esau, you have to survive in the music market to try the rock elements again, so I think it's better to choose the popular ones.

  • @Lunarelise
    @Lunarelise Před 2 lety +1

    It makes sense, no build up in the prechorus, and the choruses just slide right in. No relief. That's why the final chorus + outro is really satisfying 👌

    I really appreciate everyone’s opinions and critiques. It felt very rock opera-ish with the driving movement and the BIG OUTRO, so I appreciate the song as a casual listener of that genre.
    Is it the strongest comeback they’ve released? No. Is Locked Inside a Door a stronger song on the album? Yes. I still think it’s an interesting song with an important message and some of the production choices really suit, while others not so much.
    I love when you all do critiques that express what I’m feeling about a song. Thanks. ❤️

    I hope you also make a slight detour to at least look at the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra's cover of Feel My Rhythm. It is a tremendous experience, talk about lush soundscapes.

  • @miss_jess
    @miss_jess Před 2 lety +71

    I love Maison but if I'm completely honest I was a little disappointed in it compared to other DC title tracks - particularly the live stages - because of the weird mixing. Obviously whoever mixed it is a professional and it was approved by the company, and of course it got DC their first wins - so I've always felt like I just must be wrong about it? But then I see it mentioned here so I feel a little vindicated!

    • @pauW98
      @pauW98 Před 2 lety +4

      I don't know how long you've been listening to kpop, but I'm telling you anyway... Music Show wins have nothing to do with the music itself. 🥴 They depend on numbers: CZcams views, album sales, digital sales, etc. Whether a group wins depends on how high those numbers are (that's why groups with bigger fandoms can get wins more easily) but to this we have to add something else: groups that have more fans in Korea can get wins easier than those groups that have a higher percentage of international fandom.
      And something that is important for groups to win is the competition they have according to the date they make a comeback: if other very popular groups make a comeback at the same time, then it is difficult. I repeat, the music has nothing to do with wins, but the popularity of the group.
      I really like Maison, but the chorus is not my favorite 😕
      This comeback was their opportunity to win because at that time the competition was not super famous groups, it happened that way. 🤞🏼
      Sorry for my english 😅

    • @rae_2113
      @rae_2113 Před 2 lety +1

      @@pauW98 Regarding the competition part, on Show Champion (1st win) they were up against
      - Big Bang
      - Onew of Shinee
      - Ive (although rookies but ended up getting like 20+ wins with 2 songs which speaks loads about their popularity)
      So yeah competition wasn't exactly easy this time either but Somnia's worked extra hard this time around and I believe a lot of other fandoms also helped out with streams and votes 🙌🏻

    I whole-heartedly agree with the mixing opinion. I think it was "too much" of everything to fully enjoy everything. It's hard to pick out anything. Chord progression isn't my favourite either, but I do like the bridge hitting us in the face.
    Dreamcatcher's MAISON i think was made to be enjoyed on stage rather than with your earphones, that explains a lot of the mixing choices and the chord progression. Not my favourite title track, however the b-sides I think were absolutely killing it. I love them all. I don't know if you'll react to any of them but i think some of them might be cool.
