The Dimensional Riff🌌 has done some wild things to the space time continuum🕜 i.e. it seems to have sent iLikePiano (aka Ryan McGaughey) and a whole piano🎹 into the future, roughly April 11-13, 2025🗓️. Guess you'll have to go to VGM CON 2025 to see what he can do on the keys!

The universe is organized chaos💥 atoms and molecules⚛️ zipping to and fro through Dimensional Riff🌌, not unlike Composite, a progressive rock trio🤘 that's harnessing the power of the Cosmos🌠 and bringing that controlled but chaotic game music covers to VGM CON 2025 😎🎹🥁🎶

VGM CON's starfleet needed firmware updates🖥️ for our spacefaring ships 🚀 and crazy thing is the software came with this Down Loadable Collective (DLC)💽 and they're a band combining the unpredictability of jazz with the language & musical love of VGM🎮 and J-pop music🇯🇵🎵!

When you've trekked across the stars🌌 as much as we have (since that Dimensional Riff ripped itself open anyway) you see all kinds of amazing worlds🌐 like this one we found, called dogsplusplus🐕‍🦺🐕🐩 where their communication is through jazz piano standards🎹🎶 and game boy🕹️!!

Space travel takes a long time🚀 the Dimensional Riff🌌 has helped speed things up, connecting distant parts of the galaxy together. But VGM CON Mission Command still has to travel long distances🗺️⏳ so we enlisted Jonathan Aldrich to play some jazz piano VGM🎹 for us to make it to by
