Yetsuby’s 4EVA, which hit the scene on March 26, 2025, through Pink Oyster Records, is a fearless leap into the unknown from Seoul’s electronic alchemist Yejin Jang. As a linchpin of the underground—half of Salamanda, co-founder of Computer Music Club, and a staple on Boiler Room, NTS Radio, and Seoul Community Radio—Yetsuby has long sidestepped genre confines. With releases on Wisdom Teeth and Human Pitch, her sound is a restless collage, and 4EVA, her third solo album, is her sharpest yet. It’s a vivid, maximalist blend of breakbeat, jungle, IDM, and ambient that feels like stepping into a glitchy, prismatic cosmos. This record resonates most with the dreamers and tinkerers—bedroom producers lost in their DAWs, club nomads hunting for transcendent drops, and outsiders craving music that feels like a spark of magic in a chaotic world.
The tracks on 4EVA are a masterclass in sonic architecture, each one a kaleidoscope of textures that rewards obsessive listening. ‘s2WINGSs2’ opens with shimmering Auto-Tune tendrils and glassy chimes, only to fracture into delicate acoustic shards, keeping you on edge. ‘SOUNDCLOUD’ is a relentless surge, its bit-crushed bass and frenetic breakbeats hitting like a sugar-fueled rave, while ‘Aestheti-Q’ weaves vocal chops into a syncopated, pop-infused banger, with hard-panned claps slicing through like sonic darts. ‘FLY’ is the album’s emotional core, a celestial drift that channels the aetherial radiance of dream-pop instrumentals. It unfurls with a tender, starlit pulse—cascading synths ripple like light on water, while ethereal vocal sighs float above a lattice of delicate percussion. Subtle brassy synth undertones add a haunting warmth, grounding the track’s otherworldly glow in something achingly human. It’s the kind of song that feels like a fleeting moment of weightlessness, evoking the bittersweet rush of chasing a fading dream under a pastel sky. ‘I AM 뇌로운 인간’ closes with crumpled guitar and synths that fold into a fragile, introspective haze. From ASMR flickers to insectoid hums and warped xylophone loops, Yetsuby’s production is meticulous, built for headphone nerds but ready to ignite dancefloors. It’s a soundscape for those who want to lose themselves in music that’s as cerebral as it is visceral.
4EVA thrives in its ability to fuse euphoria with quiet yearning, making it a beacon for those who live in the overlap of chaos and wonder. It’s a haven for the weirdos—the art-school rebels, the late-night ravers, the sound obsessives chasing every glitch. With its twitchy footwork rhythms, ambient drifts, and bass-driven jolts, the album doesn’t just capture Seoul’s underground pulse—it’s redefining it. Yetsuby proves she’s not just a producer but a world-builder, crafting a record that’s as much a feeling as it is a sound, perfect for anyone who’s ever found solace in the shimmer of a perfectly strange beat.
