1. ASTRO (아스트로) is a South Korean boy group formed by Fantagio in 2015. The group currently consists of 4 members: MJ (엠제이), Jinjin (진진), Eunwoo (은우), and Sanha (산하). They debuted as a six-member piece, on February 23, 2016 with the mini-album Spring Up along with its title track 숨바꼭질 (Hide & Seek).
The group's former members includes: Rocky (라키), who made his departure from both the group and Fantagio on February 28, 2023, following the decision not to renew his contract. Moonbin (문빈) passed away on April 19th, 2023.
The group had two sub-units, known as JINJIN&ROCKY and MOONBIN&SANHA, however they were both disbanded due to the subsequent departure of Rocky and the passing of Moon Bin.
2. Astro is a chilean indie-eclectric-electronic band, first formed in 2008. Astro released its first EP Le Disc de Astrou in 2009, the quartet released its first full-length album, Astro in 2011.
3. ASTRO is Hiroshi Hasegawa's solo 'space-noise' project. Hasegawa is best known as a founding member of Japanese noise legends C.C.C.C. (also Astromero, Astral Travelling Unity, Senssurround Orchestra, YBO²). He has begun his solo unit ASTRO with analog synthesizers in 1993 as well as playing in C.C.C.C. Though his solo focuses on music that stems from a similarly analogue mindset, conjuring feverish dreamscapes from primitive oscillators, ring modulators and field recordings. In this instance, Hasegawa's endeavours seem to marry Japanese harsh noise convention with more psychedelically charged sounds, throwing together a blistering arsenal of noise signals with Acid Mothers Temple-style far-out-ness.
4. Astro is a lofi recording project based out of New Orleans, LA. AKA Astronomical. http://thisisastro.bandcamp.com
Miu-Miu
Astro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Muerde y muerde el mismo pedazo
y lo hace hasta que se le hace chicle,
de esos que hacen bombas de hidrógeno,
de esas que revientan a la gente,
las mismas que iluminan las ciudades
todas de una vez.
The opening lyrics of Astro's "Miu-Miu" introduce us to a character, Miu-miu, who has an insatiable appetite. Miu-miu repeatedly bites into the same piece until it becomes chewed up and gum-like. The imagery here is striking, with the reference to hydrogen bombs and exploding people creating a sense of chaos and destruction. The mention of brightly lit cities adds to this sense of devastation, as it evokes the aftermath of nuclear explosions.
It's unclear exactly what Miu-miu represents - perhaps a powerful force or entity that consumes everything in its path. The repetition of the biting action throughout the song reinforces this idea of relentless consumption. There's a sense of danger and unpredictability to Miu-miu, as if it has the potential to cause massive destruction if left unchecked. At the same time, the imagery of the hydrogen bombs and the bright lights suggests a kind of awe-inspiring beauty to Miu-miu's power.
Overall, "Miu-Miu" is a song that's open to interpretation. It's a vivid and evocative piece that uses striking imagery to create a sense of chaos, power, and awe.
