WARPs UP Explodes Like a SUPERNOVA with Incredible Choreography and Cool Rock Beats in Latest Music Video!

Japanese-Chinese boys’ collective WARPs UP have released the video for new song “SUPERNOVA” on YouTube, marking their fourth release in four consecutive months. The single is also now exclusively available to purchase in China. “SUPERNOVA” was produced by Tony Esterly and Paige Blue, who have worked on hits such as “Satisfied” with Sia and multiple songs with BTS. This follows WARPs UP’s success working with Esterly and Blue on their previous single “Cloud 9” in December of last year. 

The song was envisioned as the ultimate concert opening track, with a powerful intro that pulls you headlong into the world of WARPs UP. Differing from their usual groove-led tracks, “SUPERNOVA” has a solid rock sound that offers yet another glimpse of WARPs UP’s endless charms.

The video features yet another groundbreaking dance performance by the incomparably skilled WARPs UP members, and for the first time they are also joined by a group of backing dancers. The larger number of performers makes the choreography all the more intense, while hinting at the possibility of a fluid lineup of dancers in future videos.

RIKIMARU and SANTA recently set the internet alight when they performed on CHUANG2021, a popular music variety program in China that has exceeded 5 billion views. Their performance on the show elicited an explosive reception from fans around the world, while hashtags praising their performance trended on social media platform Weibo, with posts on the platform gaining over 60 million views.

As their star continues to rise, WARPs UP are forging their own path. Check out the video in question to witness a unique approach to music and dance.
