Why limit ourselves to 'genre's' when GOOD music can come from anywhere, any time period, and anyone?

composer, producer, musician, author of Werk Your Net, and cultural strategist.

Why limit ourselves to 'genre's' when GOOD music can come from anywhere, any time period, and anyone?
Hi my name is Yasna, and I am a multigenre artist. I am a Japanese and Afro-Trinidadian composer, producer, musician, author of Werk Your Net, and cultural strategist.vAs a person who belongs to so many communities and having an interdisciplinary skillset through various mediums + industries, I believe my strength is my authenticity, empathy, and ability to story tell/communicate. I am very passionate about bringing non-traditional stories to life through an authentic and unique lens.
Growing up in a multicultural home, I grew up listening to every single Ghibli song to exist, Jazz, Blues, Funk, Soca, Samba, Boleros, Afro-beats, Latin, Folk, House, Japanese folk music, Japanese blaxploitation music, and many more genres helped me develop a deep appreciation and love for world music.
My music has been featured at the LACMA, Sundance Film Festival, The New Yorker, the San Jose Museum of Art, and Dakar’s Africa-Asia Conference Festival. I’ve scored the BAFTA-nominated film Many Thousands Lost, Kiana Khansmith’s viral short Pretty Pretty Please I Don’t Want To Be A Magical Girl, and composed Haru Hayate, a euphonium and piano duet for Arisa Makita’s international tour. As a trumpet player and vocalist, I’ve performed at Lincoln Center, Dizzy’s Club, Benaroya Hall, Yamaha Hall, Umbria Jazz Festival, Newport Jazz Festival, and with the C.U.G. Jazz Orchestra in Japan.
I’ve collaborated with Nike, Meta, JD Sports, and VICE, and my work has been featured by LinkedIn, ULTA Beauty, McKinsey, vote.org, Columbia Sports x Disney, and Adidas NYC. I’m a Bleeding Fingers and Sony Music Publishing Scholar, a BAFTA-nominated composer, and a former fellow of Issa Rae’s Find Your People program.
I earned my undergraduate degree in Religion and Sustainable Development from Columbia University and my Master’s in Screen Scoring from USC. Outside of music, I love designing clothes, painting, traveling, and creating spaces where people from all walks of life can connect.
私は山岡やずなと申します。日本人とトリニダード系アメリカのミックスの作曲家、プロデューサー、ミュージシャンであり、著書『Werk Your Net』の作者、そしてカルチュラル・ストラテジストとして活動しております。幼少期からジャズ、クラシック、サンバ、カリプソ、サルサ、J-POP、ハウス、R&B、そして世界各地の民俗音楽に親しみ、パン・アフリカンおよびアジアのディアスポラ音楽を通じて自身のルーツとアイデンティティを探求し続けています。
私の音楽は、サンダンス映画祭、The New Yorker、サンノゼ美術館（デイヴィッド氏とパティ氏の展示とともに）、およびセネガル・ダカールで開催された「Africa–Asia: A New Axis of Knowledge 3」にて発表されました。最近では、BAFTAにノミネートされた映画『Many Thousands Lost』（監督：Jehan Patterson）、Kiana Khansmith氏によるYouTubeヒット作品『Pretty Pretty Please I Don’t Want To Be A Magical Girl』の音楽を担当し、また牧田亜理紗氏の国際ツアーのためにユーフォニウムとピアノの二重奏曲「春疾風（Haru Hayate）」を作曲いたしました。トランペット奏者およびヴォーカリストとして、リンカーン・センター、ディジーズ・クラブ、ベナロヤ・ホール、ヤマハホール、ウンブリア・ジャズ・フェスティバル、ニューポート・ジャズ・フェスティバルなどで演奏し、さらに日本のC.U.G.ジャズ・オーケストラにもゲスト出演いたしました。
また、NikeおよびJD Sportsとの「Nike Makers」キャンペーン、Metaとの「100% Black, 100% Asian, 100% Yasna」キャンペーンなどに携わり、VICEおよびJubileeのパネリストとして登壇いたしました。LinkedIn、ULTA Beauty、マッキンゼー、vote.org、Columbia Sports × Disney、Adidas NYCなど多数のメディアや企業にも特集されています。Sony Music PublishingおよびBleeding Fingersのスカラーとして表彰され、BAFTAノミネート作曲家でもあり、Issa Rae氏主宰の「Find Your People」プログラムのフェローにも選出されました。
学歴としては、コロンビア大学にて宗教学および持続可能な開発に関する研究を行い、南カリフォルニア大学（USC）のスクリーン・スコアリング・プログラムにて修士号を取得いたしました。音楽以外では、服のデザイン、絵画、旅行を楽しみ、多様な背景を持つ人々と空間を共有することを大切にしております。
