Csalogány has today released her new video and single titled ‘F3160 (Reimagined)’. Csalogány is not particularly interested in making music that sits politely in the corner while everyone pretends to be emotionally stable. With ‘F3160 (Reimagined)’, the Hungarian artist takes an already psychologically charged piece of work and gives it another perspective, proving once again that feelings apparently refuse to stay in their assigned little boxes. The result is atmospheric, introspective and deliberately difficult to pin down, which is exactly what makes it so compelling. This is music built less around explaining an emotion than creating a place where you can actually wander around inside one.
The visual world surrounding ‘F3160 (Reimagined)’ complements that philosophy beautifully. Csalogány’s work has always treated the inner life as something worthy of cinematic scale, and this project understands that emotional experience is rarely tidy enough for a convenient beginning, middle and end. Instead, the music and imagery create a sense of movement between tension and release, restraint and expression, distance and intimacy. It is the sort of artistic ambition that can occasionally become unbearably self serious, but Csalogány has enough instinct and personality to keep the whole thing grounded in genuine feeling rather than artsy fog machine territory.
What makes ‘F3160 (Reimagined)’ particularly effective is the idea behind the reinterpretation itself. Rather than simply repainting the original and calling it a day, Csalogány approaches the material from another emotional angle while preserving its central pulse. That gives the song a fascinating sense of duality, as if the same internal landscape has been photographed under completely different light. The result feels expansive without becoming bloated, experimental without turning into homework and emotionally intense without demanding that the listener arrive with a glossary.
Csalogány has stated that the goal is simple: to make people feel. Mission accomplished. ‘F3160 (Reimagined)’ is evidence of an artist who understands that the most interesting music does not always tell you what to think. Sometimes it simply opens the door and lets you deal with whatever happens after you walk through it. As the beginning of a new era for Csalogány, this is an impressive statement of intent, full of atmosphere, curiosity and emotional intelligence. The underground music world has no shortage of artists trying desperately to appear mysterious. Csalogány has the considerably more difficult trick of actually making mystery feel human.

About Csalogány
“I am Csalogány and my goal is to make people feel.” Hungarian artist Csalogány explores psychology, emotional experience and the inner workings of the mind through music. Her work revolves around a central question: how can our most elusive internal processes be transformed into sound? Rather than simply explaining emotions, her songs aim to create emotional landscapes that allow listeners to experience them.
The project first gained wider attention through Kikeltető, a Hungarian talent programme for emerging underground artists, and has since appeared on both domestic and international stages. One of Csalogány’s defining works, “Peremvidék (F3160)”, has also received international recognition through its accompanying music video, which won first prize at the London Music Video Awards, took second place at the Berlin Music Video Awards in 2026, and was selected for the Odense International Film Festival.
The title refers to F31.60, the ICD code for a mixed state of bipolar disorder, in which symptoms associated with mania and depression can be present at the same time. The song attempts to capture the complexity and contradiction of this state through sound. Directed by Péter Becz, the video reflects on these layers through the story of a female museum attendant who, amid the monotony of her work, encounters a painting of a horse. The moment breaks through her apathy and leads her towards dance as a means of self-expression and identity-building. The film stars dancer and choreographer Bettina Rose Jurák, with cinematography by Marcell Csillag and production by Beyond.
An emotional experience this complex cannot be approached from a single perspective. This idea became the starting point for revisiting the original track: to explore the same state from another angle while remaining faithful to its emotional core. “F3160 (Reimagined)” was born from this approach, not simply as an alternative version, but as a new interpretation of the psychological landscape behind Peremvidék.
“F3160 (Reimagined)” marks the beginning of a new era for Csalogány, expanding her musical language while keeping the transformation of inner experience into sound at the centre of her work. The goal remains simple: to make people feel.
