I am a creature
I translate my life & love into sound.
The spaces between sounds—
Can you feel them?


Since childhood, I have questioned the meaning of life—shaped by a spiritual upbringing, deep inner inquiry, and direct encounters with death.
I believe that while the physical world is finite, the soul is eternal; endings and losses are not to be feared, but embraced as part of the greater flow.
My art and music attempt to transform invisible phenomena—dreams, unconscious signals, spiritual impressions—into sound and color.
Each piece is both a question and a prayer, a way of sharing the miracle of being alive, here, now, with others.

Yuko Araki is one of a number of female artists emerging from Japan that are redefining the outer boundaries of noise, post-industrial techno and experimental electronics.

Raised as a pianist, Araki’s teenage obsession with metal opened a gateway towards various types of intense sonics. Exploring a range of diverse music projects over the past decade (KUUNATIC, Concierto de la Familia), her solo work resolved in 2019 after she developed an approach to freeform analog noise, releasing her first EP “I” via Indonesian label Gerpfast Kolektif and her debut album “II” via Italian label Commando Vanessa. Working with a reductive set of tools, her methodology was to create work that created a sense of timbral density and complexity through a weaving together of competing elements.
In 2021 Australian Label Room40 released “End of Trilogy”, a record of unpredictable momentum and tempered ferocity. Even at its most intense, Yuko Araki’s work maintains a sense of playfulness, and a determination not to succumb to mere sonic nihilism.

In 2023 Araki surveils an expanded terrain with IV, released via Australian Label Room40.
Moving outward from the orbit of her End Of Trilogy edition, Araki creates a wholly more bludgeoning sound world. Working at the nexus of ritual, noise, sub sonics and crushing rhythms, her latest recording is resolutely embodied, smothering the listener in undulating pressure waves. She also summons an altogether otherworldly approach to voice, which operates as fugitive spirits within their caustic, post-industrial sound spaces she composes. This interest in voice is accentuated with special contributions from guests including Endon’s Taichi Nagura.

On August 30th 2025 Room40 released a new album, ”Zenjitsutan -前日譚” (prequel in Japanese); this is the 0 (Zero) of the artist's numbered album series. And it's a declaration of love toward long-form noise drone sets.

Yuko Araki’s performances have taken her across Europe, the UK, Asia, and Canada. She has appeared at respected festivals and venues including MUTEK JP and MODE (Japan), Skaņu Mežs (Latvia), Unsafe+Sounds (Austria), Freespace Noise Fest (Hong Kong), Cafe OTO and IKLECTIK (UK), Cave12 (Switzerland), and Soup (Tokyo).
She has collaborated with visual artists including Jackson Kaki and Daisy Dickinson on A/V performances.
