Japan Nightlife Media Noctive Launch Party Announced for Shinkiba ageHa on April 13

04.March.2019 | MUSIC / SPOT

To celebrate the launch of NOCTIVE, Japan’s first online platform to promote the country’s nightlife, a launch party is set to take place at Shinkiba ageHa on April 13, 2019. The title of the event is “NEW DAWN BREAKING” JAPAN NIGHTLIFE MEDIA [NOCTIVE] LAUNCH PARTY.

The event will make full use of the ageHa’s space, a cavernous venue with multiple areas including the main dance floor which houses a 2,400 capacity alone.

Chilean-Swiss DJ and producer Luciano, a superstar in the techno scene, will make his four year return to ageHa as a special guest for the event. Luciano is a household name across the globe, including with Japan’s hardcore clubbers. He is a standout act in the scene alongside Richie Hawtin who is known for having created the composition “9.20” for the 2006 Winter Olympics.

 

Luciano is active under his own label Cadenza and his popularity and force can measured by his global nightlife presence including performances in Ibiza.

 

NOCTIVE is a web media project developed by NAVITIME JAPAN and the Japan National Tourism Organization to promote Japanese nightlife to the world in English. The name is a combination of the Latin nocte meaning “night,” and “active.”

 

With just a year to go until the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo and an approximated 30 million foreign visitors set to arrive in Japan, NOCTIVE offers those travelling from overseas to enjoy the full scope of Japan’s nightlife.

Japanese artists attending the event include DJ Sodeyama and Satoshi Otsuki, both of whom are active in Europe, amongst others. REALROCKDESIGN will also perform. Down at the sub floor, DJ Kentaro and Shintaro, two world champion turntablists, will perform to appeal Japanese nightlife to the world. Various nighttime decorations will adorn the venue and there will even be a sake booth.

 

Entry is free for all international guests. Break into a new dawn at ageHa with players on the world stage.

    SEL OCTAGON TOKYO—Japan's first 'private booth lounge club'—has reopened after undergoing a revamp and is set to deliver the latest in cutting edge technology together with an incredible DJ line-up once again to the people of Roppongi in Tokyo.   SEL OCTAGON TOKYO's luxury space has been given a pop makeover to serve what they are calling 'luxury pop.' They mean to serve up night life in a new and fun way for clubbers.   The night club and DJ bar has done a first in Japan by removing the dance floor and replaced them with socially-distanced seated areas with sofas and chairs. The club also opens at 8pm everyday (except Sundays) so that even those catching the last train or coming from work can make it in time to party. The 'lounge club' was designed under the South Korean creative director of OCTAGON who has also cemented popularity in some of the world's biggest night life hubs such as Ibiza, Miami, Las Vegas, Seoul, and more.   The space is split into individual private booths so that clubbers can enjoy a safe night. SEL OCTAGON TOKYO also benefits from a high quality sound system to blare out plenty of booty-shaking dance music. The club is taking all the necessary precautions and outlined by Japan's Night Club Entertainment Association including providing face masks, alcohol gel, taking people's temperature, keeping the venue sanitised, and so on. Before entering the actual club, guests must also pass through an anti-bacterial mist gate.   There's also a high-efficient ventilator system in place that stays on the entire time, renewing the air in the room every 4-6 minutes.
