Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Hideki Kaji has just released a brand new album, titled "Being Pure At Heart". It had been about 5 years since the previous original full-length "Goth Romance". The new album contains some songs released digitally over the last few years, but also a bunch of brand new ones! The jacket was illustrated by Hisashi Eguchi.

While the album is mainly available digitally, there is also a CD edition that is limitedly available at some CD shops such as Disk Union and Hideki Kaji's official online shop (shipping within Japan).

A special edition of party "Blue Boys Club" will be held on May 12, shortly following Hideki's birthday (May 8), to celebrate also the release of the album. The event held at Shimokitazawa Flowers Loft will also feature Maki Nomiya and Magic, Drums & Love, and also DJs Blue Boys Club (Hideki Kaji and Kink), guest DJ kimriri, and in the lounge "Bend It!" DJs (Melime, Yamada Yūko, Nutty Nuts and Carole Ai❣️ (Jenny Jenny/Childish Tones)). There's a special discount for students and people from overseas. Find all details here.

There will be a special show in Tokyo on July 12 at Shindaita Fever. Find tour details here.
