Empire Garage

CIFIKA's ambient vocal experimentations were used in the Men’s Fall-Winter 2021 Luis Vuitton campaign and runway show (with House Ambassadors BTS). Boiler Room tapped her for a conceptual video performance series with Maison Valentino. She’s scored a robot/human choreographed work for the Korean National Contemporary Dance Company and has been invited to conceptualize, create and soundtrack an installation piece for ISM Berlin’s acclaimed Hexadome project (alongside Thom Yorke, Brian Eno, Suzanne Ciani, and Holly Herndon), proving her to be as comfortable with the highbrow as she is in the club.

As a collaborator, CIFIKA has worked with a diverse range of artists ranging from ambient/IDM, to UK garage, hip-hop, and R&B including Lusine (Ghostly International), Girl Ultra, Flava D, Hyukoh, Crush, Woo Won-jae, and Dress. She was recently approached by Romy (The xx) to rework her solo debut track "Lifetime".

Having already sparked a flurry of interest outside of Korea, via performances at SXSW, ADE, Reeperbahn, and with a handful of buzz-generating club shows, CIFIKA now looks to bring her sound and vision to the rest of the world.
