Mike Yorick Eelkema (b. 1989, The Hague, NL) is the mind behind Mye_Taai — a  space where sound, words, image, and intention unfold together. Working  as a writer, musician, and creative director, he shapes the project from  within, while independently navigating it’s direction, bookings, and  development.  

His practice is built on movement: showing up, doing the work, asking  questions, because if you don’t ask, you don’t know. What grows, grows  through effort. What lasts is built over time. Once the vision is clear,  making music can feel instinctive; the real work lives in everything that  surrounds it.  

“If you do not do the graft, it’s not worth it.” 

*lyric from “Access All Areas” by Mye_Taai (©2026 Mike Yorick Eelkema) 

He sees being an artist as a full spectrum — creative and practical,  individual and shared. While the work starts from the self, it doesn’t  end there. He believes strongly in building with others, creating space  for people to move within their own expertise, to contribute, and to  flourish.  

Mye_Taai exists in that balance: personal yet collective, deliberate yet  evolving — an ongoing process shaped by consistency, trust, and  connection.
