YAIMA
yaimamusic.com
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.

Camp Saint Helene
Camp Saint Helene formed seven years ago in Catskill, NY. Since then, Elizabeth Celeste Ibarra, Dylan Nowik, Wesley Harper and Alex Wernquest have found themselves growing together, insistent on building a world of their own.
In just the past year, they have collaborated with Angel Olsen, released their sophomore record, Of Earth and its Timely Delights (2024), as well as an EP accompanied by a short film, Call for Me (2025), founded their own record label & collective, Misery Mother, and toured extensively. Their single “Wonder Now” was featured on Cosmic Waves Volume 1. (2024), released by Olsen via somethingscosmic / Jagjaguwar. The compilation also included a cover of their song “Farfisa Song”, by Olsen.
Camp Saint Helene’s musical style ranges from gentle folk to groovy psychedelia. Thematically, their work reflects devotion and the desire to create, especially in the face of adversity.
