YUKARI FRESH
No tracks found into library
Yukari Takasaki is a prime example of the Shibuya-kei movement. Her music is very upbeat, playful, poppy, and whimsical. Yukari Takasaki was a member of one of Tokyo's Escalator Records' first bands, Snapshot. The duo (Takasaki and her current husband, Yugo Katayama) released several singles and EPs, but turned to solo and other collaborative work in the later mid-90s. Yukari debuted with the cheekily titled Yukari's Perfect! in 1997 on Escalator Records. The poppy, whimsical record gained the attention of Shibuya-kei artists. In 2004, maintaining her consistently cutesy appeal, Yukari informed the world she had changed her name to Yukari Rotten, and that punky electropop was now her sound. In 2005 she called herself Yukari Fresh again. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
