Biography
[edit]Takagi was born and raised in Hyogo, Japan. In junior high, she was asked to compose a song for her class for a school event. The experience inspired her to be interested in music composition. She majored in piano in high school, and enrolled in composition major in university.

As a music genre that one may find difficult to listen to, Takagi wants to turn contemporary music into something more familiar for everyone and find a balance between academic music theory and popularity.[4] She has organized many small concerts with new musical arrangements to engage people's interest in contemporary music. In 2019, she composed a pantonality song called "My owner is a smartphone addict",[5] which talks about the story of a cat named "Gorota", and his owner who is addicted to smartphone and is not interested in playing with him.
