This is Riize’s Boom Boom Bass. If you love Michael Jackson, you’ll get it right away. The songwriter and producer of this track are basically screaming, “I love Michael Jackson!!”

No matter how many times I listen, it makes me wonder where and how the homage to Michael Jackson shows up in this song. It truly is the perfect brain candy. Here are the songs that come to my mind.

Bass - Get on the Floor (the intro)

The intro is, of course, bass. It’s a feast of frisson. It gives me goosebumps.

Melody - Baby Be Mine

This is the Michael Jackson song I feel most drawn to! Is there any other song out there with quite this vibe? Some people say this melody brings Jackson 5’s ABC to mind, but I’d bet it owes more to this song itself (Baby Be Mine) than to ABC.

Bridge - Smooth Criminal (from 1:50 onward in the music video)

Eeriness - Thriller

Somewhere in the middle there’s an eerie feeling that clearly echoes Thriller. Riize’s a cappella overlaps with Thriller’s electric piano.

Dance

I don’t know much about dance, so I’ll leave that part to you 😆

The composer and producer, who clearly love Michael Jackson’s early albums, wrote a love letter and packed it tightly into an envelope called K-pop. How did they read my heart so well.. This is SM Entertainment’s finest masterpiece.
