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.

On May 4, the 7-member idol group FRUITS ZIPPER held the first Tokyo performance of their first-anniversary concert tour at Toyosu PIT.

 

Tickets for both the Tokyo and Osaka shows sold out immediately after they went on sale. To celebrate the first anniversary of the group's debut, the lucky fans who were able to snag tickets came together at Toyosu PIT.

 

In the year since their debut, FRUITS ZIPPER has skyrocketed in popularity, performing live at several idol festivals and some of Japan's largest fashion events, and successfully touring Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka. Their show at LINE CUBE SHIBUYA garnered incredible attention.

 

For the first anniversary concert, the stage was transformed by a special set and the member appeared in new never-before-seen costumes. They performed a total of 17 songs, and each member expressed their gratitude to their fans during the MC segments.

 

During the performance, it was announced that the group would perform at the Sayonara Nakano Sunplaza Music Festival on June 26. The venue, which has seen countless performances over its long history, will be demolished and replaced to commemorate its 50th anniversary. Fans are excited to see their favorite artists perform on this legendary stage, and many are curious to see how it will be transformed in the future.

 

FRUITS ZIPPER has also released the song Cho Medetai Song ~Konnani Shiawasede Iinokana? ~ (The Super Joyful Song ~Is It Okay to Be This Happy?~) on all major streaming services. The track was co-written by Sho Yamamoto, who wrote the group’s hit song Watashino Ichiban Kawaiitokoro, currently with over 700 million views on TikTok, and Gento Miyano, who has written songs for numerous popular artists. The super-happy pop tune has a sound reminiscent of idol tracks from the 2000s and has been a smash hit at live shows, stirring the fans into a frenzy.
