Some stories are best told without words: Mikaji aka the often creative steerman of the triple-gold and vibe-certified production powerhouse gishfang presents Jéricho – a sonic journey through the Middle East, shaped during a road trip across the West Bank of Palestine. This track blends live-recorded mystical flutes and strings on a downtempo beat into an evocative soundscape, reflecting on beauty, history, and hope. The cover art, by Gaza-born artist Malak Mattar, comes from her Seeking Peace series – now more poignant than ever. With Malaks blessing, her powerful work accompanies this release.

Jéricho (by Mikaji)

Mikaji is part of the triple-gold & vibe-certified production powerhouse @gishfang. This solo project drifted into being while traveling — shaped by the idea of weaving together global influences, old souls and new sounds, ancient rhythms and modern textures. A bridge between tradition and future, riding the present moment like a wave.

Across continents and galaxies, Mikaji’s music has quietly found its way into unexpected places — from NASA missions to the ice arena of the Toronto Maple Leafs, from BMG to UCLA and Médecins Sans Frontières. It’s been heard on BBC Radio 6, CBC, and indie stations from Latvia to Canada — moving like water, flowing wherever it’s needed.

As a part of gishfang, Mikaji has helped craft a catalogue that’s gathered nearly 15 million combined streams (as of April 2025), not by chasing trends, but by staying true to feeling — letting the current lead, trusting the sound to reach those tuned in. Behind the surface, Mikaji is often the creative engine steering gishfang’s ship — shaping two full-length, seamless albums, including the Magnum Opus MUMB (Monster Under My Bed), as Stereofox.com fittingly called it.

Beyond his own projects, he has also produced for German artists like Ćelo & Abdï, Sierra Kidd, Jalil, Chakuza and more — making waves behind the boards in the German music landscape.

Born from water, gishfang moves like a wave. More than a triple-gold & vibe-certified production powerhouse, the gishfang fishgang is an aquatic entity, rooted in cutting-edge music production, organic sound design and boundless musical exploration ♆ 

"Over the years, German production duo gishfang has made a name for themselves thanks to their exquisite production and genre-bending style. In 2023 the pair got ready to unveil the multi-colored ‘Monster Under My Bed’ – an album that stands as their magnum opus thus far." (written by Stereofox.com)
