Aloha- Slow 6

Currently in love with this korean band called Slow 6. First came across this band through the song above as I subscribe to pastelmusic's youtube channel. Pastel music is the record company behind a majority of korean indie acts which includes my favourite artistes like Zitten and Fanny Fink. :D Apparently the song above is for some movie, they never really indicate the english title of the movie anywhere though. :/ But this song is absolutely lovely, very quiet but brimming with laid-back happiness (if you even get what I'm trying to say). It's one of those songs that makes you grin and feel grateful for whatever little thing you have in life which might even encourage you to do a little happy and goofy dance. The sound of the ukulele definitely gave it that "happiness" factor while the soft vocals of the singer just sets you in this dreamy mood. It's almost like you sitting in a beach with gentle breeze blowing in your hair and the sun shining at you through the clouds which makes you feel a very comfy kinda warmth.

I've listened to the rest of this album which I have to say is pretty damn good. While the rest of the songs might not exactly follow the template of this song, they are definitely suitable for those lazy afternoons. If you're looking for something that is soft and understated with a tint of hope, you can surely find that in Slow 6's music. :)
