I musted been high when I posted this.. haha. Theres the info on her:

From Japan to Honolulu, Coppe' (pronounced Co-pa'y) casts a delightful light on a world too often devoid of poetry. A self confessed music junky, she is too unique and precious to be overlooked.

Named Yoshimi, which means pure, good and beautiful, when she was born, in Tokyo some years ago, she was nicknamed Coppe' by her mother on the day of her birth because she looked like a squashed loaf of bread of the same name. Coppe' spent most of her childhood between the Japanese capital and Honolulu, learning classical piano and ballet from the age of three. A few years later, she moved to Arizona, set up a studio and started exploring textures and abstraction through electronic music.

If her music flirts with the angelic world of a Bjork of the abstract wanderings of Nicolette, the roots of her inspiration can actually be found in some of the greatest jazz singers of the 20th century. Connections with Billie Holiday or Ella Fitzgerald might not automatically come to mind while listening to Coppe', but she injects her compositions and performances with the same raw intensity and heartfelt emotion.

Since her move to the US, Coppe' has released five albums on her exotically named Mango + Sweet Rice label, and worked with a myriad of high profile luminaries, including Plaid, DJ Vadim, The Program, and Kris Weston, once known as Thrash when he officiated alongside Dr. Alex Paterson in the seminal The Orb.

Probably one of my top 5 fav PLAID remixes, the one for her song Blue:
