Thinking of categories within the music industry, you would describe Mieko..s music style as TechHouse, which she strictly refuses. Cold sounds and bass are aspects of electronic music, but Miekos intends to communicate the emotional impact and the warmth while following her own "Color Theory". As a synesthete herself, Mieko works with a synasthetic color theory to experience the sound, where space is her canvas. In live performances she translates her perceived colorscapes into soundscapes.
The music is a direct response to the space and everything in it.
Her dj sets take us into an interactive world of sounds, which she frequently garnishes with selected film excerpts and recorded voices.
