A few weeks ago, TWS collaborated with American rapper 24kgoldn for the first release in the “essential; studio” series of promotional tracks. As TWS songs always do, the hooks grew on me the more I listened to it. Next up is agency seniors Seventeen — or more accurately, DK and Seungkwan, who debuted as a sub-unit earlier in 2026. Funny enough, this random promo track works much better for me than their actual debut did.
Much of this is due to tempo and energy. Feel Me has a spring in its step, bounding along a catchy electro loop that keeps momentum going. The instrumental continues to build into the chorus as a series of melodies gradually change the rhythm. Feel Me has the patina of a fan song, which is a somewhat nebulous description I wouldn’t have understood before becoming a K-pop fan. This approach gives the song a weightlessness that feels very inessential (which is ironic given its “essential” promotional branding), but as a nice little one-off this is a quite welcome addition to their discography.
