The super-upbeat net label Maltine, who I took an awed peek at last year while catching up on Japanese juke, are throwing a pretty peak-awe party on May 5th, called simply 東京 (that is: Tokyo). The lineup's full of producers worth following—Parkgolf, Yoshino Yoshikawa, Tofubeats, and Meishi Smile, co-owner of the American label Zoom Lens, easily the best place to pick up the Japanese beat strain stateside. SO THAT SOUNDS GREAT. While I'm sadly not gonna make it to such a wild party, at least there's DJ WILDPARTY's mix of choice cuts by the artists who will.
