It was released digitally on May 23 and physically on May 26, 2017 by Blockberry Creative and distributed by CJ E&M.[1] It introduces member Kim Lip and contains two solo tracks, "Eclipse" and "Twilight".

Promotion and release

On May 15, 2017, the sixth member, Kim Lip, was announced.[2]

In a post to the group's official Facebook account on May 17, 2017, Kim Lip's single album was described as "a glance at a new side of the Loonaverse,"[3] citing a new style of production from the other members' prior releases.

In order to celebrate the Music Video for "Eclipse" reaching 300K views, a Choreography Version of the song was released on May 28, six days after the Music Video.

To celebrate the single's release, Kim Lip held her first autograph event in Seoul on June 4.[4]

Songs

The title track, 'Eclipse' is an urban R&B track produced by Daniel Obi Klein, the producer of E-Sens' critically acclaimed album 'The Anecdote'. Kim Lip tells without any hesitation that "love just happens like it's destined to," in the lyrics.

"Even the moonlight feels like you," she says in the supporting track 'Twilight', singing through a sleepless night towards the moon. Cha Cha Malone, the producer of AOMG and Song Jieun wrote the song for Kim Lip, adding a deeper tint to Kim Lip's color red.

Music Video

The Music Video for "Eclipse" was revealed to have been filmed in Gimcheon[5], and it is consedered dance-focused[6]. At first it shows Kim Lip arriving at an abandoned building and dropping her backpack as she enters it. In the middle of it there's a red and circular object in which she climbs and begins to dance and sing to her song. The dance scenes vary eventually, changing between them being fully colored, black and white or black and red, with Kim Lip at times dancing on her own on the red circle, or executing the choreography with dancers, in which she either is with them or she is dancing on the circle as the dancers are around her. The video also intercalates the dance scenes with solo shots of Kim Lip's or an owl's eyes and face, with both having objects similar to halos around their heads. A shot of the building from the sky is also seen, which shows the trees around it being colored red, and it is also possible to see what appears to be a lunar eclipse in some scenes.
