Dagmusic is pleased to present GAME + ANIME = GANIME JAZZ, an exciting collection of game and anime music classics done in a classy jazz style featuring famed vocalist Donna Burke. Burke–who is most famously known for her contributions to the Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill franchises as well as being the English language announcer on Japan’s Shinkansen bullet trains between Tokyo and Osaka–founded the GANIME JAZZ quintet in 2016 and has mostly focused on live performances. GAME + ANIME = GANIME JAZZ is the quintet’s first studio album, is fully licensed, and will be available in digital and physical CD formats when it launches worldwide on April 3, 2018 on Bandcamp, with pre-orders available today:
