Tokyo's Coolest Sound

An eighth installment of the fun CD+Book series of "Readymade mirai no ongaku" has been released! While the series as a whole is supervised by Konishi Yasuharu (most often featuring music selected by himself), this time he has named DJ TAGO (a resident DJ at events "Crazee gold mine" and "Let's Go Young?" at Organ b.) to take turn as the selector of rock'n'roll tunes. The visual booklet also features DJ TAGO's collections, such as of "menko" cards from the 70s. This issue has a title that translates to "Can't dance on love ballads".

Aside from the links below, in Japan, this can also be ordered at Merurido (home of Oldays Records) and Readymade Shopping.

Also, part 4 of 4 of the 7" series was released at the same time as this CD Book.
