Geenius (지니어스) - Voyage
Review
"Voyage" could have been so much better, but unfortunately it is not. It suffers from all the common issues you'd expect to find in a release by a small company. It is heavily underproduced and obviously wrongly mixed with many parts feeling empty, while the vocals are too much in the front that feel isolated. The arrangement is decent with great melodies and modern ideas, but the production manages to subdue all the interesting parts. For example, the groovy synth beat in the beginning instead of being the driving force leading the track it becomes an aftertaste, and when it disappears later on you forget it ever was there. The vocals sound good but unfiltered, to the point you have to ask if the girls were singing live. The energy is missing from the best parts of the track and it seems as if the producer wanted to showcase the members' vocal abilities instead of creating a solid, enjoyable song. The talent is there but the debut was killed in the production room.
