Midnat releases 'Masquerade' remix sound source today (27th)

'Masquerade (Summer Mix)' is a remix sound source that incorporates the Afrobeats style. It was produced in Spanish, which makes Afrobeats stand out, further enhancing the charm of the song. Various sounds such as the sound of waves, tropical percussion, and Spanish guitar are cool and cheerful. The danceable rhythm and melody that lingers in the ears once heard raises expectations as a sound source good for dancing in the summer.
It's a song that reminds me of a summer resort. The lyric video for 'Masquerade (Summer Mix)' released together also contained this atmosphere. Various virtual characters, including MIDNATT (midnat), gather on the beach and dance. It is not a well-decorated or standardized dance, but the sensibility of freely shaking the body is unique.
MIDNATT (midnat) is the alter ego of vocalist Lee Hyun, who freely accepted endless innovations and challenges.
Last May, the original song 'Masquerade', which he first released to the world, was a synth wave genre with a rhythmical electric guitar and a neutro sound. The lyrics were replaced by a love story between a man and a woman, but there was a heavy resonance with the narrative of MIDNATT, where ambition and fear to show a new image as an artist coexist.
'Masquerade (Summer Mix)' has a stronger raw power of music. There is no need to dwell on the meaning of something or interpret the message. It is a comfortable and relaxed so-called Chillax summer song. It makes us look forward to the infinite expandability and endless variations of MIDNATT, an artist who breaks the limits.
