Chinabot presents: Arexibo, Pal Hwang Dan, Chooc Ly, Neo Geodesia

CHINABOT joins forces with Vespers club for an exclusive show of Arexibo, Pal Hwang Dan, Chooc Ly and Neo Geodesia.

Arexibo

An interdisciplinary artist, musician and DJ based in Seoul, Arexibo concentrates on the '-floor' as a fluidic space, full of politics. She combines irregular rhythms with sharp textures to simultaneously generate explosive energy and an experimental sensibility. Her cinematic performances, which delicately arrange chaos throughout time, always transport the audience into new landscapes. She released her debut EP '카운터! (Counter!)' at Chinabot in 2020. She is also a one of the creative collective ‘The Internatiiional’.

Pal Hwang Dan

Pal Hwang Dan Pop iconoclast Pal Hwang Dan, real name Pal Boche, is a musician living in Seoul, where he moved in 2013. He is inspired by industrial, K-pop and animation. He works as a composer for advertising and video game soundtracks. His first album with Chinabot, Saneopseonjip, was released in 2018, followed by A Length of Line in 2020. He has released 3 albums on Chinabot through solid-gold synth-pop hooks and his deadpan, romantic vocal delivery, he paints a picture of life in modern-day Seoul filled with yearning, loneliness, absurdity and rampant consumerism.

Chooc Ly

Chooc ly is an artist, DJ, music + cultural producer and voyager, forging astral connections through kaleidoscopic spectrums of club music and futuristic sound – fierce and emotional.

Past gigs include Chinabot x Radio Flouka (Paris); After-Eight at Radar (Reykjavík); GGI 끼, Body Movements Festival, Howl Queer City IV, Queering Now (all in London); Swallow (Los Angeles), Regenerative Feedback (WORM, Rotterdam); Chalet Wote Festival (Accra, Ghana), and Poekhali!

Neo Geodesia

Neo Geodesia is the recording name of Saphy Vong (born 1982), an experimental electronic music producer and composer born to Cambodian parents, raised in Nancy, France, and currently based in Brighton, UK. He is known for creating intricate electronic music that is characterised by its emphasis on melody and hypnotic pacing, conceptually stylised structures and extreme use of audio processing techniques. Early incarnations of Neo Geodesia date back to the mid 2000s when performing under the moniker Lafidki. That project saw him begin using the stylistic forms of electronic and experimental music, combined with the structure and abrasiveness of noise music. He has released on Orange Milk records before founding Chinabot, a collective of Asian artists. In 2021 he released his LP ‘2562 Neon Flames’ on Chinabot, which focused heavily on experimental funeral compositions. His new album Oknha Stamina was released in 2026. His work has been extensively presented in festivals and venues across the world such as the Tate Modern, Hyperdub night, Pitchfork Festival in London, Act Festival Asia Culture Center in Gwangju, Lost Music Festival in Parma, and Unsafe+Sounds Festival in Vienna.
