YAIMA is often described as timeless and unmistakable, offering a balanced
synergy of masculine and feminine expression. Their melodious soundscapes,
featuring Multi-Instrumentalist & Producer Masaru Higasa and Vocalist
Pepper Proud, showcase instruments from all over the world.Inspired by the Majesty of Nature, their musical musings encompass the
listener with driving and revitalizing organic rhythms, transcendent electronic
production, soothing female vocals, and heartened lyricism.

YAIMA creates a bridge between Nature and Humankind as an expansive
experience, encouraging growth and graceful passage for the hearts and
minds of their listeners.

The name YAIMA comes from the Mapudungun language, which means "that which
water runs through,” and the culturally preserved Yaeyama District of Okinawa, Japan.
