Veteran girl group TWICE kicks off the new year with a colorful and fresh feel in their recent mini-album. They manage to pull off the recent trends in 2-Step and drum and bass fairly well, while also keeping the project well-produced and cohesive all around.

Fun compilation. Very fresh sound and serves as a solid appetizer for SOPHIE's debut album.
