yuko kakizawa is establishing herself as an emerging figure in the music scene.
"this year, i've spent a lot of time asking myself what i genuinely enjoy playing.
with the same references and trends everywhere, it's easy to lose sight of your own taste. what interests me most is that process of searching—finding your way back to something that feels honest and true to you.
i've explored different directions, but in the end i came back to the music that genuinely resonates with me.
music is a constant process of questioning. your taste evolves, your ears evolve, and somehow the music evolves with you. it's a wonderful journey, and that's probably what i love most about it."
