Computer Music meets City Pop, one of the trendiest popular music genres of 2023! Welcome to the world of USB3, where everyday computing peripherals become expressive musical instruments. Peripheral Love is USB3's debut single, a song about living in the city and loving computer music (and Chipotle). Inspired by Japanese pop artist Mariya Takeuchi and her iconic hit, Plastic Love, we've carefully designed and mastered the computer peripherals to play popular music in a new way.

USB3 (Urban Synth Boys 3) is a pop music band formed at CCRMA, Stanford University. The trio features Soohyun Kim (Vocal & Keytar), Terry Feng (Mouse Drum & Keyboard), and Yikai Li (GameTrak Bass). USB3 brings the spirit of the laptop orchestra into the world of popular music, creating a distinctive fusion style.

Live performance at CCRMA, Stanford University, for SLOrktastic Chamber Music 2023.
