Mademoiselle Yulia was born in Tokyo in 1987. In high school, she began her musical career as the lead vocalist and guitarist for six years. The four member band performed punk, technopop and garage covers, taking inspiration from The Clash and Kraftwerk.

She was inspired to create her own electro DJ event in Tokyo called Neon Spread, after attending a similar DJ night in England. In 2008 she was signed to EMI Music Japan and released her debut mix-tape of the electro music featured in the events, Neon Spread. Mademoiselle Yulia began regularly attending DJ events and parties 2008, and met M-Flo rapper Verbal as they would often attend the same events.
