Reviewers and fans have variously described their sound as "post industrial", "fourth world", "ambient", "tribal" and "experimental". None of these are quite right; O Yuki Conjugate's early influences included Cabaret Voltaire and 23 Skidoo, before they moved to a more organic sound influenced by Jon Hassell for their first LP and beyond. Their sound is a mashup of all OYC's influences, and - particularly in their early years - frequently featured looping and found percussion. The band described their 2006 release "The Euphoria of Disobedience" as ''dirty ambient - multi layered, hyper textural and distinctly gritty''.

The band is currently enjoying a period of hibernation.
