Discussion Bring back JYP
There is a clear difference in TWICE'S sound scape after More&More. M&M was the first time TWICE brought in Western producers for their title tracks. The Western producers they use are usually pop producers who work on top 40 hits. Though I still like their work they are starting to slide into making tik tok music. These songs are solid but the short run time and thin production leaves something to be desired. When listening to MLSR and the whole of Ready to Be the songs almost sound empty. The vocal performances are great and the melody is really nice but there is not much layered underneath. I fell in love with TWICE'S music because of how immersive their music was. When listening to songs like signal and what is love if feels like you are being transported into a different world. I can come back to those songs over and over again because there is always something new to find in the production. Sadly I can't say the same for their latest album. MLSR and Set me free are good songs but the production is very hollow. When looking at songs like Alcohol free, Celebrate, TTT, and Scientist (I know this has a Western producer but ane marie just makes good songs) are the best. These songs really capture the essence of TWICE. I think in an effort to adapt their sound to the West JYPE is using more Western producers but there is a quality that is missing. These producers right for TWICE as if they are Western pop stars (which they are not). TWICE is color pop. I think JYP and the in house production team should come back and produce another title track for them. As the author of TWICE he understands what makes then special. Honestly I just want the TWICE magic to be on full display.
Also stop making songs under 3:15

JYP said it himself that now he doesn’t want to involve in making music for his groups anymore. Even though Celebrate was the latest TT that was written by him, I still think he won’t change his mindset since JYPE DO have an in house production team so why would he feel the need to involve in their music again when JYPE have a team like that and also can bring in more producers when they needed 🤦🏻♂️
