The Sound of Korean Experimental

“The Sound of Korean Experimental” dives into the leftfield edges of Korea’s underground and avant-garde music scenes, spanning glitch electronics, abstract improvisation, ambient noise, and genre-defying hybrids. This playlist clocks a wide bandwidth — from the hypnotic synthscapes of TENGGER and the meditative strings of Okkyung Lee, to Park Jiha’s cinematic atmospheres and the jagged sound collages from artists like Ryu Hankil and Matija Schellander.

You'll find early nods to noise pioneers like Nam June Paik alongside boundary-pushing newcomers like NET GALA and Yeong Die. There’s micromusic experimentation, digital maximalism, field recordings, modular drones, and post-rock flourishes woven in throughout. Whether it’s JAMBINAI blending traditional string instruments with roaring distortion, or SINQMIN flipping smooth vocals into fractured club textures, the selections here refuse to settle into any one category — which is exactly the point.
