CKAABAL

The Future of Sound

Futuristic yet nostalgic, Ckaabal is the sound of tomorrow with the soul of the past—channeling the cinematic intensity of Depeche Mode, the electronic pulse of Daft Punk, and the anthemic energy of The Killers.

Formed by film director and multi-instrumentalist songwriter Alberto "Feedback" Madrigal and hacker-turned-singer Aaron Grycner, the duo explores themes of technology, mysticism, and unhealthy love. Their name, a symbolic respelling of cabal, reflects their deep, almost conspiratorial approach to sound and storytelling.

Their debut live performance caused a scene, drawing a massive crowd from the street—overshadowing the headliners despite being the opening act. Their first music video was filmed atop a mountain, where an otherworldly experience solidified their artistic direction.

With an album and three singles defining their sound, their latest single, Saturday Night, is a gothic exploration of childish desire, blending the haunting and the danceable. Their high-energy performances transform every show into an immersive experience.

As momentum builds, Ckaabal is set to headline a 1,000-person venue in May, release a song per month leading up to their next album, and embark on a summer tour, setting their sights on a European Tour and international recognition.
