The 10-track release leads with "Boogie Woogie," a disco-funk title track whose lyrics Jaemin helped write.
NCT DREAM released their sixth full-length album, DREAM AFTER DREAM, on Nov. 9, a 10-song set led by the title track "Boogie Woogie," SM Entertainment said, Yonhap reported.
The album arrives in the group's 10th debut anniversary year. Its title means "endless dreams," and the record carries a message about using the time and experience the members have built as a springboard toward new ones.
"Boogie Woogie" is an up-tempo dance track that folds the vintage feel of 1970s disco funk into modern synthesizers, with rhythmic percussion and groovy bass carrying its energy. Jaemin took part in writing the lyrics, which congratulate the members on 10 years together, thank them for making ordinary days special, and voice a belief that every moment ahead will shine.
