I'm going to be in the city for the first time in April and was wondering if anybody can recommend some places to dance.

I want to see if I can catch maybe a butoh workshop or just some open classes.

[herpsky]

No idea!

[herpsky]

of note this week

 

-coffeebean and tea leaf to open in nihonbashi (total garbage imo). 

-Miyashita Koen to undergo renovation by 2019 – home to a brand new park, hotels, and shopping complexes

 

i was talking to a friend a couple of weeks ago and she described the city as having a very high "metabolism" – more so than any other city in the world. i think that's a really good expression.

rajio and SSchadenfreude you guys free?

[djrajio]

Steve Aoki starting his Dim Mak fashion line.

 

Then hosting a party in Aoyama's Idol.

 

Was it really necessary?

 

Does society really need another black/white street-wear brand?

 

Will anyone give a fuck about Blackscale, Been Trill, etc in a few years time?

 

I mean lets be real.

 

HBA is already feeling the effect of this.

Speaking of blackscale I went to Nid today and noticed that new store beside them called "A Vaping Ape." 

 

Shook head in disgust irl. 

[mrip]

Just out of interest, what are the best clubs in Tokyo atm in terms of who plays and the soundsystems. Is there anything that lives up to the mythical status of Yellow?

[herpsky]

probably vision

 

edit

then again, club scene is kinda dying bc of the recent changes in legislature

The fuzoku laws? huh, I thought their impact was kind of overstated, have there really been that many club closures?

[daou0782]

nah, it's chill.

The law got changed recently.

That said clubs are still meeeh in Tokyo.

Blame it on failed abenomics.

Explain 1LDK (the stores) to me (status, typical client, clout etc.). Thanks

[herpsky]

One of the first lifestyle stores that opened up in Tokyo. Also, the style they are pushing kinda coincided with the norm core trend. 

i think that's about it.

[herpsky]

is that 10% tax thing for real? just read it on yahoo news.

[pompadork]

2017 zawa

 

Also 1LDK in decline after Ohno left ;_;7 

 

And since they moved from aoyama heights. 

[herpsky]

That little 1LDK across from the OG 1LDK always had an interesting selection. 

I've bought most of Hender Scheme stuff from there. In fact, that's the only place where I've seen their non-shoe items.

Their Margiela buy's always been good too.  (then again, why would you if you can just cop the craziest pieces at gyre or the flagship)

Edited March 31, 2015 by herpsky

[pompadork]

I mostly see rich-ish wives at Apartments then young guys at the normal 1LDK and whomever at Gyre. The clientele seems pretty different. The sample sale is always like 20 year olds. 

 

I think the only place I've seen non-shoe HS items in store in Tokyo is at Lantiki centraaaaal or whatever.
