Inspired by the theme of “making Shibuya a world-class tourist destination,” a special music space has been created. Tickets offer accommodations and dinner at a high-class hotel in Tokyo, along with VIP seats and a Meet & Greet opportunity!

Channel47 (Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo / President: Yusuke Nakagawa), an association created to utilize local resources throughout Japan to empower towns and cities through entertainment, has launched a new series of music events to boost the next generation of Japanese culture. The first ‘Sky’s The Limit’ event (https://channel47.jp/SKYSTHELIMIT) will be held on January 27, 2025 at CÉ LA VI TOKYO in Shibuya, Tokyo.   Sky’s The Limit is a series of music events launched to create an immersive experience with one-of-a-kind performances by fusing music with specific worldviews that deviate from the existing environments under the theme of ”making Shibuya a world-leading tourist destination.” The first location was selected to be the rooftop club floor of  CÉ LA VI in Tokyo, a brand that began in Singapore. The luxurious space that epitomizes world-class rooftop entertainment is located in the heart of Shibuya, Tokyo, and will be transformed into a special music floor for this occasion only.   The lineup includes GREEN ASSASSIN DOLLAR, one of the hottest trackmakers in Japan at the moment, who has produced numerous hits including FLOATIN and GOOD DAY for the hip-hop group NAMEDARUMA, which launched in 2019 as DJ DARUMA & JOMMY. The artist is also active in the underground scene as a solo artist. JOMMY will also perform, with the artist known to update his sound with each era, commanding all genres including house, breakbeats, disco, techno, electro, hip-hop, and much more. Kza, from the DJ/production unit FORCE OF NATURE, creates catchy music using a creative approach that could be called ‘naturalistic,’ pursuing his unique sound of dance music and boasting a strong love of sampling/vinyl culture. GReY, a young Japanese DJ, has appeared as a guest DJ in both Japan and many European countries, while SAMO, born in New York and raised in Akashi, made his first appearance at BOILER ROOM in 2023. COCOLY, who is of international descent from Brazil, Italy, and Japan, is active in major clubs in Japan. The lineup includes Japan's top DJs and creators who are popular overseas, as well as up-and-coming young DJs who are leading Tokyo's night scene.
