After an interviewer compared ‘HALO’ to Björk’s ‘There’s More to Life Than This’, Yves shares that Björk has been a longtime inspiration, saying her music, artistry, and fashion have influenced her work

“I do actually listen to Björk a lot in my own free time, and though I love her music, I also just love her style as an artist and as a person, her character, her fashion especially. I think that has come out, whether it was conscious or not, in my own sort of music style. So I think that definitely may have come out a little bit in ‘HALO’ as well”
Yves discusses why exploring different genres was one of her main goals as a solo artist

“One of the main reasons why I decided to become a solo artist was that I always wanted to try a bunch of different things. Even myself as a person, I don't like limiting kind of who I am or what I have to do or trying to fit into a box. So through becoming a solo artist, I think I've really challenged myself to try different genres and try different types of music that people weren't expecting of me and just trying not to put a limit to what it is that I have to do or what I want to do. And since performing as a solo artist, I've been able to make a lot of those, of my personal dreams come true”
Yves reflects on the artistic direction she wanted to pursue as a solo artist after LOONA

“The music I'm making right now is definitely a lot different from the music I was doing when I was part of LOONA. I always wanted to kind of challenge myself to do something differently when I became a soloist, and one thing I especially focus on when I'm making my music as a solo artist now is kind of combining the aspects of visuals and kind of the auditory sense of what music usually is, which is why I try to create a very specific synergy in making sure that the visuals and the music kind of blend very well, which I think kind of aids in creating that very unique style, is what I would like to say about my type of music. And I always wanted to kinda show a very unexpected transformation when I became a soloist that people wouldn't expect of me to do”
