I never even heard of Austin Peralta until I visited Frank Ocean's scattershot Tumblr blog and he gave him a RIP mention. I quickly looked him up and found out he was this young pianist phenom who was a teen prodigy who released albums as a teen in Japan (Japan apparently has possibly the world's largest jazz scene). He died last month at the tender age of 22 under mysterious circumstances. To this day no cause of deatrh has been reported.

But here's some Austin Peralta for you:

BTW for those who grew up as kids in the 70's, Austin is the son of legendary skateboard pioneer Stacy Peralta.
