Band Riot will make a surprise release of a new digital single, “Ceremony (ceremony)”, on the 27th. Its agency, MPMG Music, delivered the news on the 22nd, drawing the public’s attention. The new track is an ultra-fast comeback piece unveiled just one month after “Delivery” released last month, showcasing Riot’s nonstop creative drive in full.

A J-pop classic is reborn, with an awesome city club remake that maximizes quality

The new single “Ceremony” is a remake track that reinterprets the title original song by Japanese popular band Awesome City Club in Riot’s own style. In particular, global K-pop girl group (G)I-DLE’s main vocalist Miyeon steps in for the track as a featured artist, heightening its appeal even further. With upbeat keyboard melodies and acoustic guitar rhythms at the core, plus sweeping brass sounds added on top, the song has been praised for delivering an overwhelming and richly textured pop sound that surpasses the original.

The fresh meeting between Riot, which has established a solid foothold in the domestic popular music scene, and global artist Miyeon is expected to go after both indie pop and K-pop fandom at once, capturing the ears of a wide range of listeners.
