* ■Producer comment *
* -DJ WA-*
My name is DJ Kazu and I will be involved in launching a new event in Shibuya, the center of Japan and Tokyo. Personally, over the past 10 years or so, the number of customers from all over the world has increased dramatically, and when I was a student, I used to go to record stores in Udagawa and other places almost every day. When I think about it, I feel that the atmosphere of Shibuya has changed a lot. In Shibuya, which is changing at such a dizzying pace, I thought it would be wonderful to create a place where people from all over the world can enjoy “Japanese anime songs” in the same space.

I would be happy if this event could become one of the new tourist destinations in Japan at the wonderful location of SHIBUYA109.
