Steve Aoki discussed recording with Monsta X with Metro.co.uk.
The DJ and producer worked on the song, ’Play It Cool’, which will feature in Monsta X’s upcoming album.
In the article, he calls the experience of recording as “the best thing in the world”. Monsta X, who became the first Kpop group to perform at iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball, displayed an “amazing” vocal performance.
‘Play It Cool’ is a “shimmering, summery bop that’s quite unlike Monsta X”, but pulled off “with confidence”. Aoki states the song will dive “into someone’s soul”. This is nothing new for Monsta X. Their previous tracks, ‘Lost In The Dream’ and ‘Myself’, demonstrate their performance skills and versitality. Read the full article here.
