In a town that shifts from daytime hustle to a unique blend of stillness and energy, Tokyo Reed x WASP&Friends are hosting a curated party. Tokyo Reed has hosted events in various venues from small to large, such as Mitsuki, Aoyama Hachi, Saloon, Enter, Nagoya Club Mago, and Live&Vio. WASP, known for their insomnia game at Lion and Shibuya WWW, commands the support of the youth with their multifaceted approach to fashion, dance music, and hip hop. This event will bring together artists and DJs, rarely seen together.
On the 2F main floor, Stones Taro, still fresh from his performance at RDC 2024, will showcase his edgy UK dance music style. He selects from jungle, garage, and sometimes minimal beats to drive the audience into a frenzy. Additionally, during Stones Taro’s DJ set, there will be a live shot by Kaoruko. Having collaborated since their "You Worry" days, Stones Taro and Kaoruko's first dance edit live set promises to resonate the live feel with the groove of dance music. Also featuring live acts are Kobe-born minimal beat aficionados Ziproom, whose exceptional rap skills and stable voices uniquely complement each other, and It-Works, noted for their unique word sense and expressive world, will open the floor right after opening. DJ sets include the unpredictable WASP&Friends, and George Bolton, who brings an original sound focusing on UK dance music while rooted in hip hop, and Riria, recently seen at Tokyo Boiler Room. A fresh yet cool lineup, typical of WASP and Tokyo Reed, will dominate the main floor.
On the 1F, produced by Teppei Okubo, a video creator for Huf/Newside, the intersection of dance music and skate culture is explored in a new form using skate videos as VJ material, fueling the summer night frenzy. VJs Teppei Okubo and OBT will enhance the venue’s atmosphere with cool, stylish skate video visuals. The DJ lineup includes Kyctimes' own, photographer and pro skater Radio Yatsuhashi (I.M), NIKE SB pro skater and model Renan, and the Saitama Urawa-based skate crew Amatias, featuring sound by Saloon and opener for Wata Igarashi, Mukasa.
Moreover, on the 4F, the Tokyo underground scene's key figure Timo hosts Timo Birthday Bash with Special Guest. The special guest includes two DJs who, amidst a fast-growing number of overseas gigs and frequently consumed parties, will undoubtedly be memorable. This unexpected lineup is bound to create chaos. Don't miss this youth-driven curated party that leads the night scene.
