After the split of Black Maria in 1993, You moves to Tokyo in 1996, then to New York in 1997, to come back in Japan only in 1998. During this period he studies music and musical programming.
At the end of 2002 he solely composes four tracks under name Kadenzza. At the start of 2003, these songs are put out under the name of The Reality In The Phantasmagoric World. In June of the same year, the French label Holy Records signs Kadenzza and releases his first revolutionary album Into The Oriental Phantasma.
In September 2005, the Japanese artist with exacerbated frenzy does it again and submits his second album torn between intimism and hysteria to the world. The Second Renaissance is a sequence of multiple inspirations where extreme black metal offers its entries within virtuoso symphonic and innovative music.

Kadenzza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oppressed desire in groan
You can feel my face
Withering eyes in vain
Forest of darkness will weep
With trickles of curse you fear
I am bleeding for mankind
Enchanted with fortune in mine
Making the gun for your ruin
Hiding your rotten face
No need to plead for your life
You are dying in evil fate
I am earthbound god of worm
You can't run from me
The resurrection will come
The gods revenge on you
They are coming...
Remember, twilight in ancient past
Holy places where gods breathe
The desecration by humankind
Results in the curse of deformed god
I can kill your love
What is love and what is hate?
I can take your life
Dirty feelers wind you round
Distorted body screaming
Lake of life is filled with my blood
I am the bloody heartless god
Return my head back
I will seek and kill you all
Over the mountain, over the sea
The evil spirits in everywhere
No need to plead for your life
You are dying in the hopeless world
I am earthbound god of worm
The lyrics of Kadenzza's song Mononoke: God of Worm express pain and despair, as well as a desire for revenge. The singer appears to be a god of worms who is seeking retribution for the desecration of holy places and the curse inflicted upon him by humankind. The forest surrounding him weeps with curse-inducing trickles as he bleeds for mankind. He is earthbound and seemingly unstoppable, as he promises to seek and kill everyone who has wronged him. The lyrics also hint at themes of love and hate, as the singer claims to be able to destroy love and take life.
The song presents a Gothic atmosphere through the vivid imagery and the mournful tone of the vocals. The use of words like cursed, distorted, and heartless, paint a picture of a dark and ominous world, where the gods seek revenge on humankind. The lyrics suggest a narrative of a deity who has been betrayed and now seeks to get revenge on those who wronged him. It is a haunting reminder of the wrongs of humanity and the consequences of those actions.
