Yuka Honda (eucademix) is a composer, producer, and sonic innovator whose work defies genre and convention. Co-founder of the trailblazing duo Cibo Matto, she has since forged a solo path that blends electronic experimentation, improvisational depth, infectious rhythm, and abstract storytelling. She describes her music as quantum, continuum, and sensory—a fluid exploration of sound as both narrative and experience. Like a book or a film, her compositions invite the listener into a story: shifting through contrasting emotions, spaces, and textures to create an unfolding journey.

Honda began her musical path with classical piano lessons, where ear training became her most lasting asset. After moving to New York City in the late 1980s, she was working as a food writer when she discovered the possibilities of digital instruments. Composing from her bedroom, she explored not only harmony and melody but also the limitless potential of sonic manipulation, deeply influenced by hip hop’s layering and genre-crossing imagination.

She later formed Cibo Matto with Miho Hatori, releasing two acclaimed albums on Warner Brothers Records before continuing her vision as eucademix. Her collaborations include Yoko Ono, Sean Lennon, Nels Cline, Photay, Jason Lindner (Black Star), Dave Harrington (Darkside), L’Rain, and Martha Wainwright. Recent projects include Respira at ISSUE Project Room and her score for Resurrection of Osiris at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
