Seoul’s Suman debuts on Berlin’s SEVEN with the ‘Vibez’ EP 10th July 2025, marking the label’s seventh release and spotlighting a full lineup of South Korean artists, including remixes from fellow Faust club residents DAMIE and Mars Parck.
The EP kicks off with the infectious ‘Do U Bounce’, where spring-loaded kicks and soft pads meet playful vocals and taut basslines, culminating in a warm, feel-good cut made for peak-time dancefloors. Title track ‘Vibez’ takes a sleeker turn, blending fast, clipped beats with swirling, loved-up sounds, while a soulful vocal flourishes for a breezy deep house mood fit for everywhere from NYC rooftops to Ibiza sunsets. Wrapping up the originals, ‘I Don’t Know’ pairs ‘90s house attitude with R&B vocal hooks and rubbery low-end warmth that’s effortlessly cool and full of soul.
On the remix front, DAMIE transforms ‘Do U Bounce’ into a raw techno rework, layering in off-kilter percussion, heavy synth stabs, and a moody tension that completely redefines the original. Mars Parck then takes on ‘I Don’t Know’ with her signature touch: glowing arpeggios, unpredictable synth lines, and a crisp, emotive house groove that reimagines the track in neon-lit form.
Suman’s eclectic style spans cheeky pop edits, introspective downbeat, and deep club cuts with character, a sound that has landed him on labels like Ameniia Records and firmly positioned him among Korea’s new wave. SEVEN is a queer and FLINTA* leaning label that plays with the intersection of house and techno music. Based in Berlin, SEVEN was made to break new ground, creating a truly inclusive space within the electronic music industry where diverse voices, talents, and sounds thrive, having released music from artists like Tal Fussman, Retromigration, Sol Ortega, Ackerman, and Andre Zimmer, as well as the label’s own CRYME & Posture.
