“DJ de Night?” is an analog DJ event held seasonally at Feel Records Kyoto Hanare, offering a space where people connect through records and discover new doors to music. We are now seeking DJs to perform at DJ de Night? #3, scheduled for Saturday, March 22, 2025.
This event focuses on vinyl records and welcomes DJs of all skill levels and musical styles. Past participants have included students making their DJ debut and female record enthusiasts.
For example, Tenshow, a high school student and dancer, fulfilled his dream of debuting as a DJ at this event, impressing audiences with a rare selection of vintage hip-hop and jazzy tracks.
Similarly, Rikako Zaurus made her debut, creatively mixing disco and Japanese pop songs in her unique style, overcoming initial nervousness to deliver an unforgettable performance.
Notable DJs also participate, such as DJ HIYOCO, a leading figure in Japan’s Black music scene, whose dynamic set turned the store into a club-like atmosphere. The event creates a unique community where established and emerging DJs come together to share their passion for music.
The upcoming event marks the third iteration of this gathering, and we’re looking for talented DJs to help make it a night to remember. Participants will also have a special opportunity: an invitation to perform at Feel Records Kyoto Hanare’s 1st Anniversary Event at Club METRO in Kyoto on Sunday, April 6, 2025.
“DJ de Night?” is more than just an event—it’s a place where people connect through vinyl, share their passion for music, and explore the diversity of DJ culture. Don’t miss this chance to be part of a vibrant community and showcase your talent! We look forward to receiving your applications.
