Over a year and a half since the release of Press It saw Taemin peak at No. 2 on the World Albums chart, the SHINee member returned Monday (Oct. 16) with the release of his second Korean album, MOVE.
Effusive in its sensuality, Taemin (Lee Taemin) continues down the path of sultry R&B, blending a variety of pop instrumentals and smooth electronic elements together throughout MOVE in order to coax the listener to do just what the title suggests.
The title track is a groovy, bass-driven song that sees a seamless blending of sounds as the star -- who first appeared on the scene in 2008 when he was 14 years old -- grows into his own passionate pop-R&B style. While last year’s “Press Your Number,” written originally by Bruno Mars, was more upbeat and flirty in its retro vibe, “MOVE” is a dedicated slow burn, bouncing between the digitized beat and Taemin's breathy vocals.
