You★Me is one of the Squid Sisters' music producers, along with Shy-Ho-Shy. They are first mentioned in the interview with Marie, Marina, and Big Man in Splatune 3, in which Big Man states that You★Me is a new producer who worked on Tomorrow's Nostalgia Today. In Splatoon 3's Grand Festival, their name appears in the Japanese title of Blushing Tide, ときめきスミソアエ ～You★Me Grand Mix ～, implying that they produced the song.

According to Marina, You★Me's production style is characterized by a more intense EDM sound, featuring punchier kicks and supersaw-style synth bass. She also notes the differences in Tomorrow's Nostalgia Today compared to the Squid Sisters' previous works, including a "sense of maturity" that Marie states was added to reflect the gradual changes in Inkopolis since the debut of the Squid Sisters.
