Mike Brun’s Ciao Ciao Marigold (CCM) is more than a music project—it’s a portal into a technicolor world where sound and vision collide. With the release of, satsuma, CCM cements itself as a force to be reckoned with in the Lofi psychedelic scene.
Blending cultural influences with unparalleled artistry, satsuma, unfolds like an animated film for the ears. Tracks like “Byeonggyul” and “Sumo” stand out for their ability to capture distinct moods while maintaining a cohesive sonic palette. The former evokes a dreamy, ethereal beauty reminiscent of Korean artist Mid-Air Thief, while the latter delivers funk-infused guitar grooves that feel downright cinematic.
CCM isn’t just about the music, though. The project’s vibrant animated world, crafted with the help of visual artist Hannah van der Weide, is an integral part of its identity. Together, Brun and van der Weide have created a universe that feels both nostalgic and otherworldly, perfectly complementing the music’s rich textures.
Whether you’re drawn in by the viral TikTok videos or intrigued by the promise of a transformative live show, Ciao Ciao Marigold offers something special. Experience, satsuma, now—and if you’re in New York City this February, don’t miss CCM’s debut concert at Nublu 151. Prepare for a feast for the senses that you’ll be savoring long after the last note fades.
