K-Pop Producer Reacts to DREAMCATCHER - BEcause 

What did you think of BEcause? More Dreamcatcher ➜ ru-vid.com/group/PLvJeq8Job5n_FQ5L3oDPxBn9ith-cT9zB Work with me ➜ www.azodimusic.com/

I hope someday you have a chance to work with Dreamcatcher my brother 🤘🤘

Not many people are familiar with Drum & Bass and Dreamcatcher is the only group who incorporates this unique genre every year amongst their discography. It just matches so beautifully with rock! Ive always thought that their producers must be fans of Pendulum and thats where the influence comes from when making these tracks for Dreamcatcher.

LEEZ and Ollounder are the 8th and 9th members of Dreamcatcher so your best chance to work with them would be on a side project, like R.O.S.E Blue.

this being dreamcatchers first “summer” release i think they nailed the assignment perfectly! the beat for the rhythm section in the verses reminded me a lot of reggae/alternative rock like 311 (although much faster in the DC song) and really gave me summer vibes. i also like how they included a lot of horror film trope sounds in like the end of dami’s rap with the sound bit from psycho and other elements like the music box or childrens laughter. kept it fresh but very dreamcatcher! edit: grammar

I don't know much about music production but this release feels really cohesive to me in that it flows very smoothly, the pacing doesn't change much except during the bridge and overall the song is very melodic throughout. By comparison, Boca and Odd Eye can feel a bit disjointed at times. I'm also not always a fan of how Leez and Ollounder handle Dami's raps (random trap section out of nowhere with heavy vocal processing) but I thought it was very tastefully done here and it doesn't take away from the vibe of the song. BEcause definitely has a slightly lighter sound than most DC title tracks, but there are so many interesting hooks (Gahyeon's line in the chorus especially) and I love how they lean into a more mysterious, dark fantasy style. Definitely one of their best title tracks.

These girls slays as always! This song was produced by Leez & Ollunder, they're the ones who puts the rock element in Dreamcatcher's songs. For the choreography, it was done by Hwang Sooyeon. She's so close with the Dreamcatcher members and already made several dances too! And a little note, Leez & Ollunder also produced songs for a Ateez

Well, well, well. Hi there! I love your analysis. Dreamcatcher are outdoing themselves here once again. Musically, the song is a fantastic journey. There actually are "cute" parts, but there also are parts where the guitars go full metal. The variations in BEcause remind me of their previous masterpiece, Deja Vu. The bridge with SuA's slow rap and Yoohyeon's adlibs is possibly the most beautiful one they have ever done. About the meaning: According to Dami, BEcause is about love becoming obsession. And also, this is a stand-alone story. They go back to their horror roots, which I really enjoy. One commenter noted that if you look at "BE" as a written Chinese character "悲“, that would mean "sadness". So the song title would mean "The Cause of Sadness". And that would make the lyric "because I like you" to maybe mean "the cause of sadness is I like you". That commenter is Jad Hamizan and he deserves all the credit for noticing that. The video picks up on that. JiU seems to be the puppet master here (or her doppelganger!). She is the one trapping the other members and turning them into puppets, but Gahyeon tries to escape (as you can see by her throwing off the cage right in the beginning). It seems JiU catches her again though, "because she likes her". And I didn't even include the references to the movie "Us" yet, there is so much going on. The lyrics are even creepier. SuA sings: "Your expression is blue, blue. Your face is like ocean view.", hinting at strangulation due to the one being obsessed taking things way, way too far. Dreamcatcher are clearly not afraid to tackle the difficult subjects, and they do it masterfully here - again. For me, this is more than just pop, it is art.

I do hope you'll get the chance to work with the ladies at some point in time. Happy to see your reaction to Dreamcatcher.

At first sight, it might seem that the song "BEcause" is about toxic/abusive relationships and destructive behavior out of love for a particular person, but it is not. The meaning is different, and it is much deeper. Let's start with the fact that the very name "BEcause" can be interpreted as "The cause of sadness", because "BE" in Chinese is a hieroglyph meaning "sadness", and "cause" is an English word. This turns the whole view of the song. The lyrics in essence about deception (primarily about self-deception) and being obsessed with someone. The MV and song contain the message that our worst enemy is none other than ourselves - the culprits of our sadness. It's not so much that Dreamcatcher was replaced by doubles at the end, but that their dark side, which eventually took over the other, is revealed as the true self as a result of a growing obsession with the obsessive desire to be loved, which pushes them into an endless cycle, where they simultaneously act as perpetrators and victims, as well as puppeteers and puppets. The clip was inspired by the American movie "We" about evil doubles who decided to replace real people (you can see many references, including in the choreography itself). There, as in "BEcause", there are two colors - red and blue. Red represented doubles, while blue represented originals. In the Dreamcatcher clip, it will be the other way around. Red implies their real, while blue is their ideal version. Each time they pretended to be their ideal version (the hourglass symbolizes the temporary nature of pretense and deception), which to some extent brought them satisfaction, but actually played with them, which caused them pain, but since they were unable to resist the temptation (the dark side of Sua, holding out another an apple that she bites off), they continued to wear masks. They wanted to be always loved, and in fact it did not matter who, but with their obsession and creepy behavior, the girls only repulsed others even more. In the end, they reveal their true selves, with the naive hope that the loved one will nevertheless remain on their side. When their true self begins to manifest, some damage has already been done, and it will not be possible to escape from themselves and their sadness.

Thanks for the Dreamcatcher reaction.

They got back to horror genre and it felt so at home. Massive upgrade visually, and the second verse has so much swag and reminds me of the matrix ost.

I'm so glad BEcause you like it and thanks for the music insights. Not many people noticed the pinch harmonics. Are you still producing song? You should make one or two music like this. It's gonna be dope

Wearing a DC hat was a smart move for your Leez + Ollounder collab pitch video

Thank you for reacting Dreamcatcher!

Dude I love the analysis and enthusiasm you bring to these videos, unlike a lot of reacters, I always feel like I want you to keep going and interrupt more to add even more insight.

Everyone at Dreamcatcher Company deserves a raise. This was another masterpiece from everyone involved but especially showcased when performed by the members. As you said, every section accurately represents a respective members and to match music with human personalities throughout a song is hard to do. There is just so much going on in DC songs in general, but then to also have the tone of the song match the theme of the group is incredible and they've done it for the majority of their comebacks. Also listening to it one more time with your video, I realized the transition between Dami's rap and JiU's lines is absolutely seamless. It gives me so much life.

Dreamcatcher ！！！

WOW !!! The best song and album (BEcause, Whistle, Alldaylong) of the year?! As always, Dreamcatcher is Dreamcatcher. I think you must check their B sides. You must be shocked. 😉 I'm waiting to receive this best album. Thanks. From N.Y.

Love their sound so much.

Dreamcatcher never disappoints! Am i right?

I was explaining to youtubers about Damis verse using the amen break!

would love to see you work with them, awesome react as always!!

Yaaaaaaaas I was sooo excited about this one

Thank you for the reaction to the song and I always love to watch musicians reactions BEcause I don’t know anything about music terms :D that mute palm note is interesting!

Love the way you break everything down in your reactions and the energy you always have! Truly great to see!! Would love to see you react to their songs "Don't Light My Fire" and (or) "No More"!

HOW are your eyes always smiling, I’m jealous

I like kpop but I also love metal, so yeah I noticed the palm mutes the first time I listened to the song, they sound so CHONKY haha

Loved your reaction (plus I learned new things XD)! Dreamcatcher is back!

Superb AZODi!!! Always love your music production analysis. As much as I would love Dreamcatcher to go heavier in this song, I always enjoy their music. The groove in the second part of the first verse section at 1:10 is so good. I wonder if you notice they are using percussion or synth pluck. Have a nice day!

I loved that hard jungle \ drum and bass \ almost breakcore beat for Dami’s rap verse. I’ve always loved that sound and it blends in nice here, especially with the sharp “psycho strings” interrupt.

LOVE this song and the vid - my fav in all of DC - no utopia, just bad ass humans with lots of sweet sounding pretensions.

Very nice reaction and analysis👍 Are you gonna react to the album? Pls? I promised you will be very surprised I also want to hear your opinion about it

I love DreamCatcher 💜

As a guitarist I appreciate you analyzing the guitar parts that much more.

Wow I love it thank you so much for reacting to the new song and I hope you can maybe enjoy some of the other songs of the album

Dreamcatcher never disappoints! 🤘

It's nice to hear about some details of the music from the producer. Thnx

dreamcatcher \:D/ I hope you also catch your dream and work with at least one of their future songs :)

although i feel like this album is a bit weaker than their previous releases, their B-side Whistle is an incredible track that i would definitely recommend you check out (and maybe even give your thoughts on)! i always love hearing your thoughts on K-pop production, it's all very fascinating for someone who has zero knowledge on music production. love the content man, keep it up!

Love seeing you react to our girls. We love to see it!

do you plan on reacting to sunmi anytime soon? love ur vids!

Long time no see bro. Hope you're gonna react the full album 😘👍🏻

First time I've seen one of your videos mate and I'm impressed so I've subbed you. I'm hoping you're a big Babymetal fan too cos I sure am, but I have to say since discovering Dreamcatcher only a few months ago I've literally become addicted to them, they're just incredible.

What kpop songs has Azodi produced?

Thx bro for the DC analysis as usual, always great. DC always has alot going on. So I'm curious on how for instance your comments would be on the other Kpop/metal hybrid song that dropped last month from Pink Fantasy (핑크판타지) called Poison. That song seemed to amp up the metal even more than I've ever heard DC do it. I feel like since thats under a smaller label, your critique as a producer would be interesting. Check it out if you get the chance.

PLEASE REACT TO RING RING BY ROCKET PUNCH

awesome stuff as always. loona - paint the town react soon?

Can you do pink fantasy poison? And their dance intro alice in darkland.

I hope you can react to NOT THE END by HIGHLIGHT. I'm new here at your channel and i liked your reaction videos😁
