Background and release

On June 2016, Fantagio Music reveals details for the second mini-album by rookie boy-group, Astro. The mini-album is called Summer Vibes, with the lead single titled "Breathless". It was also revealed that Astro collaborated with the same composers who produced the tracks for their debut album.[3][4]

"Breathless" is a refreshing song with a clear and addictive melody. It is also described as a breezy, synth-pop track that continues the feel-good vibes from their debut single "Hide & Seek".[3][5]

The music video for "Breathless" was also released on July 1, featuring I.O.I member and label-mate, Choi Yoojung. The first half of the music video is filmed in Jeongdongjin Beach Park, while the second half is filmed in a forest in Namyangju. It shows the boys enjoying summer activities, as they appear to be human incarnations of soda bottles of the lead star.[5][6][7][8]
