Exhibition: Street artist ESOW has a solo exhibition that started last weekend inside of 55DSL in Harajuku. A whole room is filled of his paintings and various objects. Definitely worth a check! I also picked up the limited T-shirt. The exhibition goes on until June 30, and different works are shown at the same time at the shops in Nagoya and Kobe.
Music events: - On Monday I went to "Prost!", an event presented by Delicatessen Recordings at Batica, Ebisu. I got to see P.O.P ORCHeSTRA and Dorian! Dorian's technique always amazes me, sequencing his tracks on the fly on his MC-909. There were so many new sounds I hadn't heard before. My guess is that he must have a new album in the works. Crossing my fingers!
P.O.P ORCHeSTRA, TAKAHASHI Masaru, KAZYANIGHT, DORIAN
- On Tuesday was Takako Minekawa & Dustin Wong's 2nd show! I had seen them just the month before (report), but I went again, and it was great! The show was held at event space Kichimu in Kichijōji. My friend Yuya who went along wrote a great report on his site ICON.jp, with photos and details about all their gear. After the show I got to talk briefly with Takako and Dustin! They were really nice too! :) I'm really looking forward to the album to be released next month.
- And on Friday was event "Joy Ride vol.133" at Koenji High featuring CTO LAB., and also soyuz project and NeoBallad. All acts were great! I'll have to write this up later. Meanwhile here are photos I took of CTO LAB. (More at Flickr)
Playlist: Denki Groove, Vanilla Beans, Buffalo Daughter, Kavinsky, Kero Kero Bonito, frenesi, Rodion
Tech: Facebook seems to have made changes its OAuth flow recently. My app used to be able to obtain the access_token from the authorization code, without specifying the app's redirect_uri, but that stopped working. I had to fix my code to work around that.
