Blue stories sound smooth
Blue Shade
Based on Blue Story
Tigger Twins
Blue Shade are a new Thai pop band and Based on Blue Story is their first album. The music on this album is retro easy-listening Thai pop with some smooth soul influences here and there. It’s a nice album that listeners in a mellow mood might enjoy.
The lyrics of all the songs are about different aspects of love and romance. One of the album’s highlights, “Yak Jer (The Reason for Loneliness),” is a medium-tempo song with a cool melody and an easy-going rhythm that’s designed to make listeners feel good. “Kwam Rak Dee Tee Sud (The Best Love Ever)” is a slow, sad song with very catchy lyrics and melody. It’s the kind of song that people will remember after hearing it for the first time.
Overall, Based on Blue Story is a perfect realisation of Blue Shade’s smooth sound. Every song is easy to listen to, so the entire album is highly recommended to fans of this type of sophisticated Thai pop. — VH
