A new co-ed K-pop group has just debuted!
CHECKMATE is a five-member mixed group consisting of two girls (Sieun & Suri) and three boys (Nason, Yongseok & Noah) under Grace Company Entertainment. They released their first single album “Drum” on September 21st at 6 p.m. KST.
The song has an exciting Mumbai-based EDM sound, making it all the more captivating for listeners with exotic melodies and a catchy chorus hook. The mixture of colorful synths and rhythmical marching band elements such as drum cadence inspired beats and brass horn riffs, makes this a fascinating and addictive track.
Composed by producers Stardust and Anna Timgren and written by Danke of lalala Studio, the unique voice of each CHECKMATE member harmonize well which further displays the group’s individual charms and distinct appeal.
