AKMU COLLABORATION ALBUM [NEXT EPISODE]

AKMU’s new album [NEXT EPISODE] is a new episode starting 4 years after [SUMMER EPISODE] released in 2017, and will be presented as AKMU’s “first collaboration album” with all featuring members participating.

Lee Seon-hee, IU, Zion.T, Beenzino, Jannabi Choi Jeong-hoon, Crush, and Sam Kim participated in the composition and arrangement, and Jukjae, PEEJAY, Lee Hyun-young, and MILLENNIUM, who showed musical synergy with producer Lee Chan-hyuk in the past AKMU albums, participated in the composition and arrangement. A lab lineup was formed. Musically, there are new attempts than before, the first featuring participation by other artists that have not been seen in AKMU discography so far, and in terms of sound, inspired by the retro sound of the late 20th century, various collaborators’ musical By adding color, a fresher and more experimental genre and narrative were created.

The theme of this album [NEXT EPISODE] is ‘Beyond Freedom’. ‘Transcending freedom’ means inner freedom that is not affected by any environment or condition beyond simple physical comfort and comfort, and AKMU has solved this theme with different stories in the 7 tracks on the track list.

It is a story of a will to not lose inner strength without giving in to situations that cannot be resolved by individuals, the standards and gazes of others, and personal pain. It is a message of comfort and hope.

Through AKMU’s first collaboration album [NEXT EPISODE], I hope that AKMU’s message that we will be together no matter what trials come to us who are currently going through times of discomfort will be of faith and comfort.

AKMU COLLABORATION ALBUM [NEXT EPISODE] is a collaboration album consisting of a booklet set with a total of 7 different themes, a sticker set, and a folding poster. It can be found in stores.
