Geenius are a rookie girl group from new firm HOMe, and I’m already predisposed to liking them since they’re a quintet that escaped from Blockberry Creative and their maknae is already 20. Of course, none of that issues if their “Voyage” debut itself isn’t as much as par, however fortunately it’s fairly promising.

“Voyage” is an upbeat track that serves successfully as a showcase of the members’ charms and vocals. A vibrant, synthy monitor with some ethereal-sounding moments, the fingerprints of teams like LOONA, WJSN, and Lovelyz will be heard, and fortunately it has a little bit of pep in its beat to provide it the vitality it wants. Thanks to strong melodies, “Voyage” will get proper as much as the precipice of nice, however the refrain doesn’t fairly take issues to the degrees it deserves, because it seemingly lacks each that ambition and the knockout hook. Of course, that’s an important place to be on debut, and finest method I can describe this degree of fine is to say it’s extraordinarily playlist-worthy. The sort of monitor that’s unlikely to land on best-of lists (no less than mine … most likely), however one I’ll all the time hearken to when it comes up and is unlikely to age poorly or get worn down by tendencies of the time.

Additionally, all of the members collaborating in writing of the lyrics is a cool wrinkle, and the music video is executed properly that provides polish to the debut. Conceptually, “Voyage” works to provide all of them an id together with doing the entire introduction factor, and I liked the flashes of animation in it because it actually introduced out the artwork turns into life sort of idea. While it positively works as a showcase for the members*, hopefully it additionally signifies that their firm can be on this for the long-haul. Looking ahead to their future now.

*Their It’s Live additionally helped promote me on the group, as they had been filled with persona and it had that further vitality the recorded model was missing a bit.
