Ruangrima Releases 'Satusama', When Meetings Feel Simple Yet Impactful

Kapanlagi.com - Ruangrima returns with their latest work through a single titled Satusama, a song with shoegaze-dreampop and alternative rock vibes that is full of emotional atmosphere. Released on May 20, 2026, this song tells a story about a meeting that comes quietly, simply, yet leaves a deep impression.

Through Satusama, Ruangrima reaffirms their melancholic, romantic, expansive yet modern and emotional musical character. This song does not tell a story of dramatic love, but rather about the familiar feeling that gradually emerges when two people find the same 'space' amidst the hustle and bustle of life.

1. Old Song That Finally Finds Its Time

Interestingly, Satusama was actually written almost 10 years ago. This song was kept for quite a long time before it was felt to have found the right form and momentum to be released to the public.

This long wait has made the song feel even more personal for Ruangrima. It seems to be a fragment of old feelings that are still alive and relevant to this day.

Musically, Satusama is built with a simple chord progression and minimal lyrics. However, it is precisely from this simplicity that the song's atmosphere feels strong. The layers of characteristic shoegaze guitar, ethereal vocal ambience, and the gradually building musical dynamics become the main strength of this song.

2. Wants to Be a Song That Is 'Felt', Not Just Heard

Through this single, Ruangrima wants to create an intimate yet grand listening experience atmospherically. This song is expected to accompany the quiet moments of its listeners and become a personal emotional reflection space.

Satusama is also Ruangrima's second single after previously releasing Hujan, Kemana Saja Kau? last January. Both songs will eventually be part of Ruangrima's latest EP planned for release in the second half of 2026.

Ruangrima's musical influences come from many big names in the alternative and indie scene such as Cocteau Twins, The Cure, The Jesus and Mary Chain, as well as local bands like rumahsakit and Pure Saturday.

"There is a meeting that feels very calm, to the point where words become less important. 'Satusama' was born from the simplicity of that feeling," said Rizky Fauzy a.k.a Ruangrima in a press release received by KapanLagi.com.
