Detention.
A custom game that brings fans into marado’s world, with a way to join his fan list.
Play marado’s game282 fans, in a list he owns.
Alternative-soul artist marado had fans on every platform and a list nowhere. In August 2026 we launched maradomusic.com on CROSS. Seven weeks after his album announcement, 282 fans sit in a database that belongs to him.
Step into
marado’s world.
Detention gives fans a game to play on his own site, connected to his creative world and fan sign-ups. It sits alongside release pages, a house-tour sign-up, a survey, and his merch link.
The goal: give people a reason to spend time with his work and a way to stay connected. The site-wide numbers below include multiple sign-up sources; they do not isolate the game’s effect or show revenue generated by it.

Tracked clicks out to streaming, pre-saves and merch. Clicks, not people.
Counted from his production database on 12 October 2026, 8:42 pm Pacific. Fan figures leave out 12 test and internal sign-ups. One artist, counted on one day: not an average, and not a forecast for you.
Reach he rented.
- Instagram DM automations with 130 contacts, 0 email addresses and 0 phone numbers (checked 22 August 2026). Fans who replied got a link, and nothing was kept.
- The sign-up link in his bio went to a Google Form that asked fans to log in to Google first.
- Other fan addresses sat in up to four separate tools, and nobody had counted them.
A list he owns.
- 282 fans with their consent recorded, every one in his CRM.
- Fans who join in DMs land in that same list, from 30 August onward.
- He can see where each fan came from: the homepage form, the game, the house-tour sign-up, or DMs.
- New fans get a welcome email sequence written by his own team.
Live at maradomusic.com since August 2026.
maradomusic.com
- His site, on his domain
- maradomusic.com, with release pages, a countdown, a game, a house-tour sign-up, a survey and a merch link.
- A fan database that is his
- One database for one artist. It is never pooled with anyone else's and he can export it any day.
- Sign-ups with consent
- Every form records the exact wording each fan agreed to, where they signed up, and which campaign brought them.
- Sync to his CRM
- Every new fan is copied into his own GoHighLevel account automatically.
- DM capture
- Emails collected in his Instagram DM automations are passed into his database instead of staying in the DM tool.
- Tracked links
- Each click out to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, pre-saves or merch is logged by destination and by where on the page it happened.
No revenue claim yet. His merch sells on a separate store whose sales we do not see, and no orders are recorded in his database.
marado is on an earlier CROSS plan, so these results come from that plan, not from the current offer. And the zero-emails “before” is his DM tool’s count only: lists kept in other tools were never counted.
