I’d like to formally introduce to you guys the “BEST OF 2014” mash-up, which highlights the best tracks that came out this year! Of course, in determining which songs I’d be putting in this yearly mash-up, not only my opinion counted, but yours as well! I often asked in my social media accounts which songs from this year you guys really liked or may call “iconic”, and chose the majority of the tracks from those list! A factor that I also took into consideration is the different yearly charts that came out this year, but I honestly put in priority to the comments or tweets from my social media. So, I’d also like to apologize right now if your favorite track didn’t make the final list. HOWEVER, I’d also like to remind you guys about the real goal of this mash-up, which is to highlight the best tracks and the most popular artists this year, and not include every single k-pop track that I know which came out last year. IF YOU GUYS ONLY KNEW, I had a lot more songs in mind that I wanted to put but didn’t perform well in the charts nor was suggested by people when I was creating the list, but sigh, that is life. Anyway, technically speaking, I think this mash-up could be considered as one of my best by a lot of people as I tried some new techniques in this mix. If you guys noticed, it is the first time I tried blending instrumentals for my mash-ups, as well as include tempo changes, and I think it’s really not bad, so you guys may look forward to it in my next mash-ups soon! As for the lyrical content, I decided to eliminate that element, and just focus on what would sound great together; basically I focused on creating catchy patterns, but while making them, I (un)/intentionally created some lyrical connection (though in just certain parts). But what I’d like you guys to focus on this mix is to just enjoy the flow and melodies I had put in together. I honestly almost didn’t make a 2014 mega mash-up, just to let you guys know. I was avoiding those questions when I released the K-LUBBING 2.0 mash-up as I was really tired after just finishing that project, but after a few weeks break and enjoying the vacation, I suddenly had the urge to do one, and since I knew no one was going to do one, I just decided to hop on the project. I’m glad I got a lot of questions about making a 2014 mash-up since I honestly like this mash-up best from all of what I have released in 2014. And yes, like how I always say it, I really hope you guys enjoyed this mash-up! I do these mash-ups for the love of the genre, as well as my hopes of achieving my dreams, so you guys can count on me to do my best to improve every single time I release something. So guys! Don forget to like, comment, share with your fellow kpop lovers!
