So come join us and get ahead of the lines and experience the difference with a Passport!²

The Icarus Kid blasts familiar NES melodies and has been featured with the acclaimed orchestral show ³Video Games Live,² won first place in the Seattle Laptop Battle, and his 8-bit roots have been turning heands in the video game composition industry. The music is often compared with Daft Punk, Crystal Castles and Aphex Twin.

Ajuku Girls are an American J-POP group of singers and actresses bursting onto the scene with the release of their single TOKYO DRIFT (by #1 Japanese pop producer PJ Blanco). These Harjuku heroines rock Japanese street fashion with JPOP moon boots, colored wigs and all out vibrance in a style all their own. The AJUKU GIRLS just complete Songs of Love with Tori Amos
