Very very long time no see!
Finally I have summer vacations and got time to see Killasan Soundsystem in ItoI, Osaka.
The event where I went is called "Rice & Peace".
It takes place every Tuesday and women need to pay only 1000yen (= 9euro.. well, yen is now strong ;-)) for entrance and two drinks, while men 1500yen for entrance and one drink.
And firstly brief comments: happy, but my ears hurt at the end.
My best friend and I arrived there around 23 o'clock.
As we came into the entrance, there is a small record shop and the next door was the way to the dance hall.
There was only 5 people there. Selector put on nice reggae records.
The sound was clear and beautiful as I experienced in Berlin, my friend was surprised with the strong vibes that Killasan speaker creates.
We chilled at the table at first and then danced quite happily.
Between 24:30 and 25:00, people came gradually.
Music genres became like mix with pop or R&B and the sound was much louder.
It was so loud that I couldn't make out what the genre is, so we went out after an hour.
I was excited and content to see the speakers and listen to some wonderful reggae tracks, but it was a little bit pity because of clipping noises. (Or did I stand too near from Killasan?)
Anyway, I'll go there again and learn more about reggae!

Whoohoo! Welcome back! And how nice to read something about your first Killasan impressions in the ItoI club!
返信削除I already guessed that they would play very loud but there certainly shouldn't be clipping noise. Maybe the DJ pushed the levels a bit too far?
Anyway, I'm sure it's a joy to listen to some proper Reggae tunes on that system.
I'd be happy if you would continue your blog and report about your journey into Reggae and other music, as well as your clubbing experiences in clubs like ItoI / Killasan Soundsystem.
Have nice summer holidays!
Right, I meant it too. > Maybe the DJ pushed the levels a bit too far?
返信削除And I forgot writing that the audiences were nice. They seem to come there in order to enjoy music purely, actually I found some business-looking men.
Thanks, I hope you'll have nice summer too!
