Manic Pixie Dream Girl

A restless architect of sound, weaving together the echoes of what was, what might have been, and the audacious yearnings of the now. Unafraid to reveal her controversial truths, Mari Aoki’s music is a playground of playful cockiness, sensual allure, and boundless imagination. Mari’s musical journey began early—dancing at age 3 and singing by 12 amid the social media boom—ultimately leading her to Berklee College of Music. In 2022, she released her first single “Manic Pixie Dream Girl”, recently released “As Much as I Do”, and since then, has been incorporating the lyrical interplay of English and Japanese. She melds Y2K aesthetics with the shimmering pulse of J-pop, soulful R&B grooves, infectious pop hooks, and dance rhythms, traversing the delicate borderlands where nostalgia fuses with futuristic dreams.
