Founded by Jasper Shogo Dutz, the ensemble showcases the talent of AAPI musicians who share a collective interest in Japanese pop culture, fictitious lore and video gaming. Since their debut in fall of 2023, they’ve performed at numerous anime conventions, festivals, and venues including Kogaracon, Setsucon, Yukibana, Queens Public Library, Umbra, Wonderville, Red Pavilion, Clement’s Place, AAPI Jazz Fest, & Mid-Autumn Festival.

John Koozin and the Neighborhood

Covering the songs, jazz standards, Hymns, as well as songs from film and cartoons, this band is inspired by the works of his mentors, as well as his own experiences teaching students in Sunnyside, Queens.

Dom Palombi’s “Game Night”

"Game Night" is a Funk-Fusion complication of some of the most nostalgic video game music soundtracks, and a few of Dom's original compositions, featuring some of the biggest names on the Internet and the VGM Community! With Sounds similar to Vulfpeck, Scary Pockets, Louis Cole, Snarky Puppy, and Lettuce. They have performed for Pax East, MagFest, and other major festivals in the tri-state area.
