The band Jannabi conveyed its essential attitude toward music and the direction of its new album.
Ahead of the release of their 4th studio album on the 28th, the band Jannabi unveiled a prologue self-interview series detailing their work experiences and production background, along with new profile images. This interview reflects the team's sincere thoughts on their ten years of journey and their future musical direction.
Cho Jeong-hoon noted, "The process of building up songs as if commuting to the studio every day was the driving force behind our music," explaining that he refers to the accumulation of time while waiting for moments of inspiration as the "Flash of Inspiration Operation." Kim Do-hyeong also mentioned "diligence," stating, "I doubted myself countless times but ultimately found my weapon. The more diligently I approached it, the more consistently I was able to create music."
Changes in the working environment and mindset are also reflected throughout the album. Cho Jeong-hoon explained, "Rather than clinging impatiently to a single track, the approach of keeping it simple and light has permeated the music well." Kim Do-hyeong conveyed, "Since we worked cheerfully without impatience, the music also resembles our current selves."
Additionally, Jannabi focused on music rooted in reality rather than fantasy in this album. Under the message "Music ≠ Fantasy," they completed tracks closer to their current life and emotions. Cho Jeong-hoon emphasized, "While nostalgic elements remain, the message is in this moment," and Kim Do-hyeong stated, "We created music freely without lingering in the past, present, or future, focusing on what we love."
They also shared the overall direction of the album. Cho Jeong-hoon explained, "I worked with simplicity as the keyword, aiming to naturally trace the trajectory from the moment I first encountered music to my current feelings," adding, "I wanted to express sincerity without heaviness."
The new profile released alongside the interview reflects the warmth and serious gaze of everyday life, rather than a flashy production. The unadorned mood visually illustrated Jannabi's attitude toward music and the atmosphere of this 4th studio album, drawing attention.
This 4th studio album marks a new chapter for Jannabi as they celebrate their 10th anniversary. With this album, which fully encapsulates their love and contemplation about music, Jannabi is ready to once again strike a chord with music fans.
Meanwhile, Jannabi's 4th studio album, set to reveal its musical true essence amidst fan anticipation, will be released on the 28th at 6 p.m. through various online music platforms.
