Now in its sixth year, RAKERAKA's signature party, “DEAR MONDAY,” having carved out a long-standing, secretive presence among music enthusiasts. Unlike boisterous parties, it's the good venue for those who wish to savour dope underground music at their own leisurely pace and This underground hideaway-like venue sees music lovers gather at a leisurely pace.
This time, WILL A returns from the UK after a long absence. He is a DJ with a particular passion for acid house, breaks and the TB-303. Meanwhile, Misaki is a member of the B2B unit M&m’ズ, who perform across genres and scenes including deep house, techno and breakbeats, and is a promising young DJ based in Nara Prefecture. Furthermore, organiser HSC, who focuses on British mutant rave music and emphasises ritualism and storytelling, will guide you on an intoxicating musical journey in a post-club, freeform style.
RAKERAKA's Monday nights feature the exceptional FUNKTION-ONE sound system and cool music flowing onto the dance floor, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of an Asian ritual space in the darkness! Let's go!
