Years of hopeful wishes got fulfilled through Rolling Quartz’s latest single featuring Siyeon from Dreamcatcher and her rock band ChRocktikal. Rolling Quartz’s long history of love towards Dreamcatcher and the January debut of ChRocktikal meant that the timing finally worked out. Released on April 6, “Roll the dice (feat. Siyeon) (prod. Yoon Dohyun)” came out as the ultimate K-rock band crossover. Rolling Quartz singer Jayoung’s and Siyeon’s vocal talents forms a heavily-anticipated combination that sounds as mighty as imagined, and production by Yoon Dohyun of YB, South Korea’s longest-running rock band, gives the single a touch from a rock legend.  

To celebrate this single’s release, let’s look back at the events that helped this collaboration happen. From times before Rolling Quartz’s debut until now, the history between Rolling Quartz and Dreamcatcher spans almost a decade ago. 

Drummer Youngeun’s Dreamcatcher Covers

Youngeun showed her love for Dreamcatcher prior to Rolling Quartz’s debut in 2020. She uploaded drum covers on YouTube under the 영은 Drum channel, which featured its first Dreamcatcher-related video in 2017 with the B-side “Wake Up.” Back when the band existed as two separate acts, Rose Quartz (Jayoung, Youngeun, and Hyunjung) and Rolling Girls (Arem and Iree), Youngeun and Jayoung uploaded a vocal and drum cover of Dreamcatcher’s “GOOD NIGHT” in 2018. This cover would get revisited years later when Rolling Quartz officially added their rendition of the song to their first EP in 2022. 

Youngeun’s YouTube channel has been inactive since 2021 with her last cover of Dreamcatcher’s “BEcause.” Since Rolling Quartz has been busy releasing music and going on tours, this turn of events is hardly unexpected. However, Youngeun’s affection towards Dreamcatcher would later result in collaborations. 

Rolling Quartz’s Official Cover of Dreamcatcher’s “GOOD NIGHT” 

As part of their Fighting EP, Rolling Quartz released their version of “GOOD NIGHT” on February 8, 2022. The song’s music box intro gets replaced with guitar strums before launching into an explosive transition. Jayoung’s deep vocals and solos from the other members add a richness to the track that differentiates it from the original.  

The music video for the remake also shows more love to Dreamcatcher. It contains references to many of the group’s music videos like “Chase Me,” “Deja Vu,” and “Odd Eye.” The description of the music video on YouTube reveals that the director for Rolling Quartz’s video consulted with the director of Dreamcatcher’s music video to make it.
