7 Kpop 80s Remixes That’ll Make You Think You Traveled Back in Time
Let dance!!!
Sunmi – Heroine | 1980s concept
Sunmi’s Heroine already sounds a bit like an 80s song. But with a little enhancement iPARTYNAUSEOUS turned this track into an 80s pop hit!
HyunA – Lip & Hip | 1980s concept
I’m not going to lie, upon first listen I literally thought this remix was a bit better than the original. It has a nice 80s Pop Rock flare, and even sounds like it may have a sample from The Saturdays – Disco Love. Which is a retro inspired song.
Red Velvet – Peek-a-Boo | 1980s concept
iPARTYNAUSEOUS, out did themselves with this masterpiece. I never thought I could like Peek-A-Boo even more than I already do! This remix has a funk 80s sound to it. This sound is actually used in Red Velvet ‘s“The Perfect Velvet” album
BTS – 80’s DNA [by RYUSERALOVER]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPhtSWzinVA
We just found BTS’s hidden 80s jam!! Lol and it was hiding in RYUSERALOVER’s youtube channel.This remix enhances BTS’s original beat with a 80s pop one that makes this song sound even better.
TWICE – SIGNAL (DANI REMIX)
This 80s inspired remix could cure anybody’s cold lol. I always thought TWICE’s Signal had an 80s inspired sound. In this remix DANI took out the groups original electro pop beat and replaced it with a 80s inspired synth pop beat.
SUNMI & UHM JUNG HWA – Heroine X Ending Credit
If you ever wondered what queen Uhm Jung Hwa and queen Sunmi would sound like together, your dreams have just come true. This remix/mashup not only sounds like it could be on the radio. But it also sounds like it could’ve been released in the 80s.
Big Bang – Bad Boy 80’s Remix
I don’t know what’s better. The song or the fact that BIGBANG look so funny in this epic cover art.
Bonus!
SHINee x BLACKPINK – 1 OF 1 x BOOMBAYAH (80s mashup)
That’s the end of this list, the only thing I hate more than endings is that they aren’t more of these 80s remixes. Hopefully in the future they’ll be more to come!
