Happy 3rd Year Anniversary to BTS SUGA’s “Seesaw X I Need U Remix”

“The Seesaw x I NEED U remix, released in 2018, is a powerful demonstration of SUGA’s talent as both a producer and performer. The remix blends the emotional weight of I NEED U with the sleek, synth-heavy groove of Seesaw, creating a nostalgic yet refreshing track that resonated deeply with fans. What made this release even more special was that it wasn’t just a performance piece—it was a passion project showcasing BTS’s in-house artistry. SUGA not only produced the remix but also played the keyboard and contributed to the synthesizer work, highlighting his hands-on approach to music-making.

This remix stood out as one of the most iconic pieces from BTS’s 2018 FESTA celebrations, giving fans an unexpected fusion of two fan-favorite tracks. The atmospheric tone of I NEED U blends seamlessly with the rhythm of Seesaw, and SUGA’s production adds layers of emotion and smooth transitions.

The track gives a rare insight into SUGA’s duality—his ability to craft sounds that are both sentimental and rhythmically engaging. The additional production from Hiss noise and the clean mix and master by Pdogg brought out the best of each element, allowing the emotional undertones to shine through without overpowering the melody. Adding to the significance of the release, Jungkook designed the special album cover, bringing a visual intimacy that matched the emotional depth of the remix.

His involvement gave the project an even more personal touch, making it a true collaboration between BTS members. Projects like these remind fans of the individual talents within BTS and how their creative synergy continues to produce timeless works. The Seesaw x I NEED U remix remains a beloved track not just for its sound but for the heart and hands behind its creation.
