About Me |

Click Here to Join My Mailing List! MY debut EP is available on: iTunes Care for a Krita Yuga banner? Copy the code below the banner and paste it into the "about me" section of your profile. Bio As a young Japanese boy, Yuga originally wanted to be a manga creator or a computer game programmer until he grabbed his first electronic guitar. He soon became interested in computer music and bought his first sequencer and synthesizer. A few years later, he got fed up with his life in Japan. He impulsively left Japan with a small day bag and wandered around Eurasian countries for some years. In his wandering years, he was so fascinated with the sound of sitar in India that he leaned sitar there. He also came up with an idea to create some kind of electronic music featuring sitar as the lead instrument. In India he had a lot of special experiences and went through many changes within himself. He had sort of near-death or "death while being alive" experience in the holy town Varanasi. So he thinks Varanasi is his second home town. He went to Europe after he left India. When he was busking on a street in Amsterdam, he was invited to Norway by a Norwegian producer, and experienced some professional studio sessions as a sitar player there. After he returned to Japan, he resumed his own music projects. But he just used his computer as a recorder, and wasn't very interested in sound design. As his desire for creating his own unique sounds grows, he naturally became interested in programming his own synthesizer presets from scratch. Thanks to the internet, he quickly acquired knowledge on synthesizers and standard synthesis techniques. First he used conventional virtual analog-type synthesizers. He enjoyed creating sounds with such synthesizers very much but he also wanted to go beyond conventional synthesizer sounds. He fatefully encountered NI Absynth and instantly fell in love with this incredible synth. After the arrival of Absynth, he was totally immersed in creating sounds with Absynth, forgetting everything else including eating and sleeping. He hadn't been into beat programming very much, until he started to listen to some bleepy artists such as Autechre Boards of Canada and Amon Tobin. Now he also enjoys beat programming very well. Now he has finally acquired sitar, sound design, and music production skills and tools required to create music he has had in his mind for many years, he calls this style of music electoraga. But because of his mercurial nature, he has problem with sticking to a specific style of music and tends to go as eclectic as possible. He lately started to record his own singing, and now mainly training his skills as a singer. He had been interested in creating experimental music that no one has created. However, he is now more interested in creating music which is fresh and new yet somewhat catchy, in other words, a bit innovative pop or rock music. I'm now looking for a cellist who lives in the Tokyo metropolis area, or who can record at home and has a high-speed internet connection. Please feel free to contact me if you're interested. Note 1) If you really like my music and your request is pending for weeks, I'd encourage you to send me a message. 2) Images whose width is greater than 700 pixels can mess up the whole layout therefore will be deleted. |
