OUHEN No. 26 - APPI MUSIC JAM '07

"OUHEN" (往返/おうへん), is a short series documenting a trip to Japan I took between August 11th to August 19th, 2007. In only a short week, I met many people, took many risks, and found myself in many problems I hadn't foreseen or planned for. On this episode...

The APPI MUSIC JAM is about to start, and I have to check-out, collect my things, and get in line as soon as possible. I've been looking forward to this festival for quite some time, and it's expected to be a blast. Upcoming artists are:

MONKEY MAJIK
m-flo
BENNIE K
freeTEMPO
SEAMO

Cameras are forbidden during the concert, but I try and get a quick peak around the venue before the concert ends. By the time all is said and done I pick a quick thing up to eat and get ready to find a place to sleep.

Music:

♫ monkey majik - watching you
♫ seamo (ft. kozue) - i wanna be...

Monkey majik's Maynard mentioned to this report in Yahoo Japan's music magazine's interview. He recommends readers to check this report on You Tube. Well done!

Ah, I think I may have found the report...

"「東京の人にはあんまりミステリーが感じられないというか」（­Maynard）"

What and interesting read, and quite an honor to notice that this little video was on his mind at the time of this interview. Well, that, and I doubt it helped that I was trying to have a conversation with them in between songs.

Probably ruined the atmosphere a tad.
