  • CAPSULE & Other Major Japanese Artists to Perform at ageHa’s 2020 Countdown Party in Tokyo

    18.December.2019 | MUSIC

    ageHa is set to host one of Japan’s biggest countdown parties again this year, falling on December 31, 2019 once more.

    Headlining the ARENA is English DJ and producer Sigala. He released his debut single Easy Love in 2015 which shot to number one on the UK charts. Since then, he has continued to pump out club and festival bangers such as Sweet Lovin and Say You Do. Seven of his nine singles have gone platinum, proving that he is one of the main players in the scene right now.

    Another headlining act for the show, this time from Japan, is CAPSULE, the music duo spearheaded by internationally-acclaimed Japanese DJ and record producer Yasutaka Nakata who is the official producer for two of the biggest names in Japanese music: Perfume and Kyari Pamyu Pamyu. CAPSULE plan to put on a special performance for the countdown party.

     

    banvox is also making a return from last year’s ageHa countdown concert, and CYBERJAPAN DANCERS are entering the fray for a special showcase.

    In the WATER area of the venue, which is produced by WORLD CLASS and TCPT, France-based bass house duo Loge21, who have piled up t he releases since Confession, will perform in Japan for the very first time. DJ Remo-con will join the line-up as a guest too.

     

    Over at the ISLAND area, the latest in cutting edge hip hop will take to the stage. Several DJs representing Tokyo will join rapper Jin Dogg, who is garnering attention right now, including HOKUTO, KEKKE, CHARI, and FUJI TRILL.

     

    Finally, the BOX area will give rise to trance tunes, with performances from DJ KAYA, NORIO SP, FULLMOON RAVE, agefarre, and more.

    But that’s not all, because the famous Robot Restaurantーa major tourist attraction in Shinjukuーis making an unexpected collaboration with ageHa to put on their first ever show outside the restaurant.

    A variety of other celebratory things are planned for the countdown party to chime in the new year, including servings of toshikoshi soba, omikuji fortunes, goshuin seals, and more. If you happen to be in Tokyo for the New Year, then don’t miss out on this very special event.

  • banvox to Digitally Release New Song ‘Why You Gotta Do Me Like That’ Worldwide

    31.July.2018 | MUSIC

    Japanese music producer and top dog in Japan’s dance music scene banvox will digitally release his first new song in 9 months Why You Gotta Do Me Like That worldwide on August 3.


    banvox has represented Japan at music festivals across the world including ULTRA Europe and he’s been praised highly by some of the biggest names in the scene including David Guetta and Avicii. Despite earning such widespread recognition, the artist suddenly ceased performing live at the end of 2017.

    After a long silence having halted his activities 8 months ago and releasing his last song Let Me Take You 9 months ago, he is now back in the game. The new song is described as being completely different from his dance trap material up to now and a return to his black music roots.

     

    banvox will perform at Rock in Japan Festival 2018 at Hitachi Seaside Park. It looks like he’s returning full throttle into a new chapter of his career.
