Tokyo ON #059: Future Listening!

Tokyo ON host and Resident Maction Planet DJ Royce Leong brings you some Future Listening in the latest episode of our flagship radio show.

It’s now 2020 and a new decade, so Maction Planet Resident DJ and host Royce Leong has decided to look at the current trends in Japanese music and guess what this coming decade will bring, spearheaded by artists like WONK, Last Electro, SUKISHA and Chocoholic.

These are truly exciting times for the World’s Greatest Metropolis, and if you want to know the sound of the future, tune in and be part of the evolution with Tokyo ON.

Listen to ‘Tokyo ON #059: Future Listening!’ here and check out the Tokyo ON website, tokyophonic.com! 

Our tour guests, listeners to Maction Planet Radio and readers of our blog know that one of our many goals is to open up Tokyo’s diverse music culture to visitors. This can be difficult to crack due to the language barrier and the sheer breadth and depth of the scene. Concerts, gigs, club nights across every conceivable genre, homegrown, traditional, modern and internationally-influenced… the variety is outstanding. In most cases there is no English-language information available for these amazing events, and that is where we can help.

We run Tokyo Music Tours, which we brand “Maction Planet Radio Tours”, introducing people to the varied range of music in this amazing city. Like everything we do, your Tokyo Music Tour can be fully customised around the rest of your time touring The World’s Greatest Metropolis, where everything old is new again! 

Some examples include:

• Cherry Blossom viewing followed by an amazing gig from Tokyo Discotheque Orchestra.
• Craft beer, the legacy of the zaibatsu, a cloudy architecture tour from on high, amazing ramen and thumping house music… all in one four hour tour of Tokyo.
• Hotel Koe’s opening party – only 80 premium tickets available – attended after an 8-hour tour of the ins and outs of the western Tokyo.
