John Balousek reports on some great stuff going on around his current home town of Tokyo:



The Electraglide festival at Makuhari Messe [where the Tokyo Motor Show is held] happens Friday, Dec. 13th and features Kraftwerk and Squarepusher. Kraftwerk and Squarepusher! Egh, Sasha is there too... You know what we think of trance around here.

I've been asking for years why Kraftwerk has never played the D.E.M.F., and apparently the reason is $100,000. Fair enough.

Also in the neighborhood, the RESFEST hits Harajuku this weekend, and there is an M.C. Escher exhibit wrapping up at the Bunkamura Museum in Shibuya.

Back in Brooklyn, our good friends at OLEX are throwing a loft party this Saturday with a very impressive DJ line-up. Info here.
