Mikaji

Music that feels like memories from places you've never been. Mikaji [miːkadʒiː] is part of the triple-gold & vibe-certified production powerhouse @gishfang. This solo project drifted into being while traveling — shaped by the idea of weaving together global influences, old souls and new sounds, ancient rhythms and modern textures. A bridge between tradition and future, riding the present moment like a wave. Across continents and galaxies, Mikaji’s music has quietly found its way into unexpected places — from NASA missions to the ice arena of the Toronto Maple Leafs, from BMG to UCLA and Médecins Sans Frontières. It’s been heard on BBC Radio 6, CBC, and indie stations from Latvia to Canada — moving like water, flowing wherever it’s needed. As a part of gishfang, Mikaji has helped craft a catalogue that’s gathered nearly 15 million combined streams (as of April 2025), not by chasing trends, but by staying true to feeling — letting the current lead, trusting the sound to reach those tuned in. Behind the surface, Mikaji is often the creative engine steering gishfang’s ship — shaping two full-length, seamless albums, including the Magnum Opus MUMB (Monster Under My Bed ), as Stereofox.com fittingly called it. Beyond his own projects, he has also produced for German artists like Ćelo & Abdï, Sierra Kidd, Veysel, Chakuza, Bass Sultan Hengzt and more — making waves behind the boards in the German music landscape.
