Social Initiation

That Hatsune Miku certainly gets around. Just a few weeks before releasing her collaboration with noise legends Hijokaidan, the Vocaloid star was teaming up with electronica producer Keiichiro Shibuya and cultural commentator Hiroki Azuma on the Initiation EP. Catch the release party at Liquidroom this month, where Shibuya will be playing in his ATAK Dance Hall duo with Evala (and Hatsune Miku, natch), with support from tape-deck orchestra Open Reel Ensemble and DJs Moodman and Tomad.
