@braygray_ Tokyo Chapter @mitsuki_tokyo Sorry for the late report🙀 We did our party Braygray in Tokyo on March 19th🫧 With @yukkkkke from Okayama, @bonnie_82__ from Tokyo and @_sonoki_ Different styles of house came together and made a really nice vibe🪐 The lineup was not planned from the beginning.We just listened to their mixes and it came together naturally. It felt like slowly getting into the music in the middle of the floor.Like something gently moving above your head. Good balance of experience and fresh energy. All DJs were great 👍 Because it was a holiday eve Thursday,many people came and shared the night with us. Thank you. Next one in Berlin this August☀️ Stay tuned❤️‍🔥

… Thank you so much to the DJs who played yesterday, and to everyone who came through Big love also to the arkaoda staff — you were warm, helpful, and the hospitality was spot on. The vibe last night felt really special. We’re always trying to create a space where people can lose themselves, zone out, and just keep moving forever. And honestly, everyone who stayed through the whole night didn’t stop dancing once. Truly wavy vibes. All the DJs brought their own dubby, dope sound, weaving smoothly between house and techno. People were playing both vinyl and digital, just dropping the tracks they really love — and still, the volume control was perfect. The mixing was tight, and it felt like we really delivered a proper, professional party. The next edition isn’t scheduled yet, but we’re aiming for April. Can’t wait to do it again✨🪐 @kimmmmmmmmmmssss @cosmosmic @ayurilium_ @_sonoki_ Bray – Braygray presents

Braygray – Tokyo 3.19 (Thu)Before holiday 22:00 – 05:00 Mitsuki, Shibuya Tokyo B1, 1-22-12 Dogenzaka Lineup: bonnie SONOKI YUKKE Braygray is something we’ve been slowly building in Berlin. This time, we bring it to Tokyo, at Mitsuki in Shibuya. The lineup wasn’t planned from the start. It came together naturally — from listening to mixes, sharing sounds, and spending time with the music. Not just house in a narrow sense, but something a bit more open. Minimal at times, slightly techno-leaning, with a dubby atmosphere — but always centered around groove. Both artists feel right within the Braygray space. A night where you stand in the middle of the floor, and before you know it, you’re already inside the sound. Like a circle slowly spinning above your head, just continuing, gently. First time for both YUKKE and bonnie at Mitsuki. It should be a good one. The sound system has been upgraded too. Thursday, holiday eve. We’ll take it a bit longer, a bit slower. —

On the 20th episode of sick of silence, Splendid Alfonsino showcased two new freinds: the japanese DJs Hisashi and Sonoki both heading from Nippon but based in Berlin. The first hour of Hisashi is full of groove and breaks, a beautiful sonar landscape based on housy rhythm. Following is Sonoki who turns to some dark house to set the vibe of the rest of the evening. As alway when japanese friends are behind the decks, everybody will immediately recongnize, hear and feel the craft. Episode now in the cloud!

Sat 29.11 | 23:00 – 06:00 8€ before midnight / 12€ after For this edition, we invite DJs from Korea and Japan based in Berlin —
bringing a night rooted in house, touched by minimal and dubby sensibilities.
We’ve long been drawn to the groove and intuition that Korean DJs carry,
and that inspiration naturally led to this lineup.
Expect deep grooves, warm rhythms, and subtle tension flowing together through the night. AYUЯI
@ayurilium_ 
From Japan. Known for her playful, acid-twisted selections and her effortless sense of groove.
Her sets blend those “what-is-this?” kind of cute dance tracks with deeper, more dope and acidic layers.
This time, she’ll be closing the night. COSMO
@cosmosmic 
The first DJ we reached out to for this edition.
Originally from Korea and now based in Berlin, she’s already an artist watched closely worldwide.
Her sound moves fluidly between deep house and techno,
weaving moments of elevation and subtle tribal energy.
Her sets pull you in like a slow current — hypnotic, pulsing, and full of flow.
Through her mixes and releases, her sharp sense and clear vision always stand out. MINSEOK KIM
@kimmmmmmmmmmssss 
Korean-born, Berlin-based, and recommended by COSMO.
A dedicated vinyl collector with a minimal and dubby touch.
His recent live mix from Paloma Bar unfolds naturally
from dub techno textures into more experimental layers —
a sound that feels like floating underwater.
He’ll open the night and set the tone. SONOKI
@_sonoki_ 
Braygray resident.
Japanese-born, Berlin-based.
Playing between deep house and techno
from a left-field and subtly psychedelic perspective.
He captures the floor’s tension and flow,
weaving the groove that holds the night together. 
Listen to their mixes, feel the groove, and come join us. We runs two party series Bray on motion Gray on emotion❣️ RA: ra.co/events/2278335
