about
On “Hush”, CIFIKA was thinking of one of her early influences, Flume, when creating the track. In the chorus, breathy vocals suddenly erupt into a cacophony of synth and drums.
“Emotions are everything- if you want to do something in your life, if you want to move, you need emotions to move you and make you do things. And the feeling of love changes you. It can almost destroy you, so I wanted to capture that explosive energy. When you realize you’re in love, you feel like you’re going to explode.”
lyrics
Hush
[Verse 1]
We got caught in the middle
Little virtual riddle
I remember our
e-m-o-t-i-o-n-s
They were swimming into an illusion we built deep down under the ocean
It’s different
d-i-m-e-n-s-i-o-n
I’m a bait, taken down
diverted, safe and sound
You can wait, hear me out
I want the most pure and genuine love
무지개를 너머와 사뿐히 내 가슴에
난 잃을게 하나 없네 지금 어떤 마음 인가요?
[pre-chorus]
Not to say You’re a breaker But hard to say You’re a keeper Not to say You’re a breaker But hard to say You’re a keeper
[Chorus]
Hush, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, shiver Gosh, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, bitter
[bridge]
I will love you
Using all my sensation I surrender to you yeah no question
I feel like resurrection
I give you all my passion
And then you’re the only I
[Verse 2]
don’t wanna waste rest of my life I’m down for a quest, test my love
무지개를 너머와
어서 내 가슴에
단 한 걸음에
난 잃을게 하나 없네 지금 어떤 마음 인가요?
[pre-chorus]
I will love you
Using all my sensation
I surrender to you
yeah no question
I feel like resurrection
give you all my passion
And then you’re the only 1 I vision
[Chorus]
Hush, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, shiver Gosh, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, bitter
[Humming]
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na
[pre-chorus]
Nothing can’t get in the way
[Chorus]
Hush, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, shiver Gosh, I’m lost, stuck, I’m in love, bitter

Emerging from the Korean underground, CIFIKA is redefining what we think contemporary Korean music sounds
like.
The producer/vocalist’s bilingual, debut full-length album, HANA, reflects CIFIKA’s borderless upbringing (living in both South Korea and North America) and her vision of a world where language, art, music and gender are all fluid....more
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
