Brooklyn Jazz Legends New York Axium Reunite via AI Animation in New Video Tribute "Too Small"

BROOKLYN, N.Y. - Rezul -- New York Axium, the prominent Brooklyn-based jazz fusion group formed in 1985, announces the global release of their new music video, "Too Small." The project utilizes AI animation to reunite the founding lineup following the passing of three beloved members.

Produced by Alexis Layne and Darryl Chalmers, the video is a "living legacy" tribute. It features the likenesses of deceased founding members Ronnie Richardson (Bass), Mark Gatz (Saxophone), and Ron Connor (Keyboards) alongside surviving founders Darryl Chalmers (Drums), Greg Sam (Guitar), and Hal Cohen (Keyboards).

The visual journey, set against a stylized New York City skyline, marks the first step in a major 2026 rollout. New York Axium will release their highly anticipated album, "More Than Words Can Say," featuring previously unreleased music from their private archives, on all major streaming platforms on April 24, 2026.
