Jeju Island’s Oslated closes out the year with 아름다운 사실 (Beautiful Facts), an 18-track compilation that feels like a gathering of old friends and new acquaintances. It’s a collection that stretches across continents—featuring artists from Japan, Spain, Canada, the U.S., and more. Despite the diversity of origins, the compilation shares a unifying thread: a deep, hypnotic sensibility. Beautiful Facts balances introspection and movement with precision, whether it’s the reflective ambiance of a meditative piece or the steady propulsion of a track made for shadowy, late-night dance floors.

Today’s premiere, “Mutation,” comes courtesy of Japanese producer Hiromi Hayashida, better known as Lindamann. The track opens with a restrained, minimal groove, where sharp hi-hats cut through like a blade while shimmering glassy pads create a sense of anticipation. But this is no slow burner—it transforms quickly, as a powerful bassline surges in, commanding the spotlight like an imposing wave in a high-stakes drama. Think of it as a scene from a thriller where a calm surface suddenly gives way to unrelenting tension. Lindamann’s playful manipulation of envelopes and textures keeps the track dynamic, particularly after a brief breakdown that reintroduces a biting acid line—an essential element that gives “Mutation” its character.
“Mutation” thrives in the murky hours, perfect for dance floors that favor the unconventional. Look for it alongside the rest of Beautiful Facts when the compilation drops on December 30.
