At least! Here comes Smogo's debut EP on his own imprint, 6 years after the beginning of the label. With a blend of dark drum'n'bass vibes, trancy rhythms and heavy percussions, the Marseille-based producer is exploring wild territories of modern underground dance music. For this first release on the catalogue, he conveys two heavy figures of the french scene : Slowglide and Drawbridge, each one going one step beyond with their slow-trance interpretation of Vocifer and the intense, rumbling remix of Narcopirate.

Tracklist: 

Smogo - Les Portes du Sublime Rêve
Smogo - Sharp Knowledge
Smogo - Vocifer
Smogo - Lords Of Gwaranjar
Smogo - Narcopirate
Smogo - Vocifer (Slowglide Remix)
Smogo - Narcopirate (Drawbridge Remix)

A heady fusion of rock’s steely drive, cosmic trance, wiggy acid basslines and cavernous dub, Talk is at once rooted in the turn of the millennium while sounding utterly outside of space and time. A combination of coveted un- and self-released material, the record features a remix, specially commissioned by Betonska, from Naone.

Jin Won Lee (이진원), otherwise known as Gazaebal, is a Korean producer and DJ whose sensual, spacious approach to electronica is rooted in his background as a sound engineer. Having begun his career in New York, in recording studios working with the likes of the Wu-Tang Clan and Janet Jackson, his expansive creative repertoire further includes media art and chart-topping K-pop. A member of Tacit Group, a collective creating algorithmic and audiovisual performances, Gazaebal is presently best known for ambient-adjacent soundscapes, yet in the halcyon late 1990s and early 2000s, he synergised a uniquely potent take on club music.

The titular track was initially released in 1999 on the independent imprint dmstrax, established by Gazaebal’s agent and wife, Nine. First appearing on techno@kr, a compilation CD dedicated to Korean electronic musicians, ‘Talk’ is an hybrid, electro-punk anthem. Colliding sung-screeched Korean lyrics with heavy breakbeat, its abrasive textures are delivered with ultra-slick orchestration. Halfway through, the jittery breaks collapse, reprised by momentous four-to-the-floor. It’s this dichotomy between poise and power that characterises the record as Gazaebal flexes his ear for intricate melodies and rocketing build.

Composed alongside Big Hit Productions founder and BTS songwriter Mr. "Hitman" Bang, the original version of 'And So On' was not available for re-release due to licensing difficulties. But thankfully the multitrack was well preserved. Utilising these components, Nawon Ha (AKA Korean-but-Netherlands-based artist Naone) re-imagines the song for Betonska. Remixed with her own hypnotic vocals, she inflects the track with mesmerising, multi-layered dimensions; a fractal, downtempo trance number that connects two generations of underground electronic musicians from South Korea.

From the pulverising kickdrum of ‘Gilda’ to ‘Spiral's acidic dub fuzz, Talk moves between sharp crests, twists, and turns, enveloping driving 4/4 and shuffling half-time. Presented as a mix-friendly mini-album, the carefully selected 6 tracks are ideally tailored to DJ-level quality and loudness. As much suited to the psychedelic rave scene of yesteryear as they are to contemporary dancefloors, Gazaebal’s productions are defined by his idiosyncrasies. Melding the sheen of tight-production with a flagrant DIY spirit, his music assuages the high-commercialism of the 2000s, resulting in a sound that’s as definitely punchy as it is intoxicatingly precise.

Tracklist:

A1 Gazaebal - Another One
A2 Gazaebal - Spiral
A3 Gazaebal - Square

B Side
B1 Gazaebal - Talk
B2 Gazaebal - Gilda

PREMIERE: Gazaebal - Square [Betonska]

The car accelerated quickly forward as it moved between gears. On either side he could see faces flashing by as the pace grew faster and faster. It was dark in the distance, soon the crowds would cease and he would be left with only the other racers for company.

He could hear the engine roaring beneath him, it was strained and mighty.

Smoke billowed from exhausts, then it all went dark as they hit the end of the tunnel and returned to the night.

Guava holds no punches with a new EP for Faux Poly, this one is a bass focussed affair with rising synths, frenetic energy and a sense of immeasurable tension. This will do damage in the clubs. Be warned.

Fonzo is the acid alter ego of brothers Telmo and Ricardo Afonso.
Naturals from Viseu, in 2011 they started the project due to their curiosity and desire to explore electronic music.
In it, they seek creative freedom in the audiovisual context, strongly influenced by psychedelia and sound hypnotism.
They are expressed through synthesizers and drum machines, in a live format, not stylistically marked out. It is the environment that defines the destination of this trip.

Saturn

In roughly two thousand years from now, when civilization has been devastated by human insatiability, few people remain. Their life is elementary and rough. They dearly miss lost knowledge. Vaguely they sense that their language is somewhat twisted. Its meaning must be painfully guessed. All their attempts to capture the true facts of their existence are in vain: The world is just secrets and enemies. The past feels like a grim, reverberant echo of loose imaginations.

Riddley Walker (1980) is an experimental science fiction novel by Russell Hoban. It inspired “Riddleyspeak”, the eighth release of Comfortnoise, written and produced by new-dot-com. five not entirely familiar club and sound system tracks: breakbeat influenced, techno leaning, and bass-heavy.

GTG Premiere | Amalle - Fogbound [OTPS004]

Not with a bang—
but like a machine giving up on its own code.

Null State

Zafer Atabey returns to EXTIMA with Never Alone, a ferocious four-tracker that cements his reputation as a peak-time techno craftsman. Each track is built to ignite the dancefloor with unrelenting energy and precision.

The title track, Never Alone, opens with heavy kicks, dark synth progressions, and striking vocal shots — a high-octane, no-frills weapon for peak moments. Control follows with a more progressive edge, blending melodic layers and intricate vocal stabs over driving percussion.

On Come Back, Zafer leans into hypnotic grooves and euphoric breakdowns, creating a hands-in-the-air journey that slams back into relentless rhythm. Closing the release, Born To Fly is an empowering anthem — female vocals declaring "I was born to fly" soar over thunderous beats and shimmering synths, making it a true clubfloor killer.

With Never Alone, Zafer delivers four distinct yet equally explosive cuts, showcasing the raw, euphoric, and sophisticated sides of his sound — another standout addition to EXTIMA's catalogue.
