About this concert
Argyle Street, at the center of Chicago's Southeast Asian cultural and business district, will play host to a one-day event on Saturday, May 18 to celebrate Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month. The inaugural "Argyle AANHPI Block Party," is being organized in partnership with Qideas Plant Shop and HAIBAYÔ. The event will celebrate AANHPI month and the grand re-opening of Qideas Plant Shop, which was recently renovated. Qideas and HAIBAYÔ are collaborating with APIDA Arts and the Aloha Center Chicago for the celebration with additional support from Celebrate Argyle, 13th District State Representative Hoan Huynh’s office, and 48th Ward Alderwoman Leni Manaa-Hoppenworth’s office.
Organizers Ellen Duong, Jennifer Pham, and Hac Tran are excited to bring people together in celebration of the Argyle corridor and the wide array of culturally-focused programming–including cultural performances, live music, youth activities, film screenings, oral history documentation, live art painting, and artisan craft vendors–that exists within the local community. Follow us and @qideasplantshop for updates!

Van Paugam Biography
The original City Pop DJ
Originally from Miami Beach and currently based in Chicago, Van Paugam specializes in 70s and 80s Japanese Disco, Funk, and City Pop. Claiming the title as the first DJ on Youtube who uses only vintage Japanese records ripped from vinyl to create mixes of rare and classic music that has rarely been heard outside of Japan. He started his journey into Japan’s music scene in 2016 in search of nostalgia for a distant time and place, and continues today uncovering artists and records that might have been lost to time if not for the meticulous preservation of Japanese record shop owners and aficionados.
Credited with creating the first City Pop mix on Youtube by juxtaposing aesthetic gifs of retro anime over the music, he influenced dozens of other Youtube Channels, Radio Streams, and even K-Pop stars such as Yubin on her hit single “Lady”. With over 80k subscribers on Youtube, a 24/7 radio stream dedicated to the genre, self-designed merchandise, and a monthly party at Chicago’s exclusive Sake lounge, Van Paugam continues to expand the influence of Japanese music from a distant era to inspire a contemporary and cosmopolitan minded audience.
