[Techno] Accutron 04 × Mixmag Japan Feat. Sam Paganini
Known for releases on Drumcode, Cocoon, and more, Italian DJ & producer Sam Paganini is coming to Japan and will apparently DJ at Shibuya's Contact Tokyo on Saturday, December 9.
What's more, it's a joint event between the organizer whose previous event with Loco Dice was a huge success, ACCUTRON, and Mixmag Japan.
Also in Studio X (the main floor): known for releases with Christian Smith and on the label Tronic, one of Japan's hottest leading techno DJs & producers, Drunken Kong.
On the second floor, Contact, from Nina Kraviz's label трип: DJ Sodeyama.
In the FOYER, with releases on the label run by Wolfgang Voigt and Michel Mayer, Kompact, the veteran KAITO aka HIROSHI WATANABE will reportedly appear.
This looks very promising.
Incidentally, at the prestigious Dutch techno festival “Awakeings,” Sam Paganini is one of the headliners.
He may not be very well known in Japan, but being able to enjoy Sam's performance at Contact Tokyo, a space where DJs and the audience are close together, with an underground atmosphere and good vibes, could well be called an exclusive opportunity.

Additional Note
I would also like to keep posting information on noteworthy club events and festivals in Japan.
Incidentally, just to clarify, my criterion for selecting a “featured event” is “whether I want to go,” not “because I'm playing it or a DJ I'm close to is playing it” or “because I'm organizing it,” haha.
