Last month was the 8th installment of Back To Chill, Tokyo’s only dubstep event fronted by the one and only Goth Trad and held at Unit in Daikanyama. Residents Ske, Hyaku Mado, Skinny K aka Kaji Peace and VJ Diagram were joined by MC Cardz and D2 for the occasion, as well as my good self.

It was a fun night once more, with a lot of drinking, laughing and people enjoying themselves. Though it was a little quieter than the last few events, it was still a success.

Hyaku Mado recorded all the sets on the night and I thought I’d spread a little love: so here are all 5 sets for you to grab in mp3 format. Click on the link below and you’ll be taken to a folder where you can download each set separately. Alternatively you can also stream them below to check before downloading.

Big ups to Hyaku Mado for the recording and to all the BTC crew for having me down once more. Next one is a special all nighter at Club Asia next week, 3rd of May. Bang in the middle of the Golden Week Holidays too, nice :mrgreen:

BTC vol 8 sets - Goth Trad, Hyaku Mado, Ske, Kaji Peace, Kper

And if you like what you hear don’t forget to check out Goth-Trad’s first releases on two UK labels out this month. The first one is the long awaited release of ‘Back To Chill’, as an EP and out now on Skud Beats. The second one is his Deep Medi Musik debut, Cut End b/w Flags, out in May. Go to Goth Trad’s Blog for direct links and audio.

I found this interesting, well designed and pretty funny link the other day while looking for information about love hotels in Shibuya.

lovehomap.com

The site contains maps for the main love hotel areas in Tokyo including Shibuya, Ikebukuro and Shinjuku (it’s all in Japanese though, but look at the url for a bit of help). The design is pretty cool in a reminiscing kinda way (Habbo Hotel anyone?), and the main attraction of the site to be honest. It’s pretty useful too if you’ve got the urge :wink: It doesn’t seem to be too accurate in terms of actual placements unfortunately but google maps is always there to help you for that.

A good one if you’re bored, or horny :lol:
