Adding special glamour is 2012 A/W collection show by BCBGMAXAZRIA, a fashion label from L.A. Their dresses are loved by Hollywood celebrities including Sharon Stone, Beyonce Knowls, Halle Berry and Alicia Keys. BCBGMAXAZRIA is the official supplier of 2012 Miss Universe Japan.
The night will be full of entertainment as we will have two DJ stations with 8 additional DJs and a live show by Miou, who has performed in various cultural events around the globe.
Us3 was founded by London-based Geoff Wilkinson. Their album in 1992 that included “Cantaloop”, sampling the famous number by Harbie Hancock, became a global phenomenon and achieved the platinumstatus for the first time in history for Blue Note albums. Geoff’ s style to incorporate elements of Latin music, Bass & Drums, Neo Soul and Hip Hop keeps evolving and hard to be placed in one category. Their latest album “Lie, Cheat & Steal” was released in 2011 and ranked No.5 best album of 2011 on influential US website www.RapReviews.com. A gig at The Peninsula will be by DJ Unit of Us3; the leader Geoff and DJ First Rate. DJ First Rate was a member of legendary 4-men crew, the Scratch Perverts that won the first team competition at DMC World Championship. His acrobatic play with “god’ s hands” is not to be missed.

Us3はロンドンを拠点とするジェフ・ウィルキンソンによって創設され、1992年にはハービー・ハンコックの名曲 “Cantaloupe Island” のサンプルをフィーチャーして大ヒットとなった “Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)が誕生しました。この曲を含めたアルバム “Hand on the Torch”は世界的ブームとなりブルーノート・レーベルとしては初のプラチナ・ヒット(100万枚販売)を記録しました。 ジェフの音源作りはクラシックなジャズ・トラックをビートやラップとミクシングし、過去を認めながら現在にルーツをもち、さらに未来も見つめるというコンセプトに基づいています。...
