First time to introduce J-Rock to the world via USTREAM by Japanese music organizations!
Sync Music Japan, a collaborative effort of three Japanese music organizations, will broadcast live performances via Ustream by artists such as Mucc, Girugamesh and Plastic Tree. A major project to help Japanese artists to reach out to the world is now in full gear.
Sync Music Japan, a project founded by three music organizations for the purpose of expanding the Japanese music market to a global scale, will be launching Nexus, a live music event featuring performances from sixteen Japanese artists broadcast via Ustream on MySpace, on Saturday, June 5th and Sunday, June 6th. This is the very first time for a music organization to use USTREAM to broadcast an event live.

Exciting news…Well, somewhat exciting news which is not all that exciting. Indie VK darlings Ayabie’s hotly anticipated major debut single has a name, a release date and a jacket art collaboration that should please their female fanbase. The single is called Aitakute and will be released on May 25th with jacket artwork by none other than Shinjo Mayu artist of the widely popular visual-kei manga Kaikan Phrase. Which is how I want to write this news piece but the truth is there are three CD covers and only the B-type is art by renowned manga artist Shinjo Mayu. Why bother touting the collab if its just 1/3 of the release strategy. At least Kagrra knows how to pimp their artist.
