By-Pass

Bring out the wheelchairs – no, we shouldn't jest: this remarkable gathering of veteran mix masters at Shibuya's atmospheric Organ Bar actually looks like a real highlight for the last Saturday night of the year. Joining fellow scene old-timers Tatsuo Sunaga and Takeshi Kubota at a special edition of By-Pass, Organ's popular regular night, is former Pizzicato Five strongman, occasional video game producer and virtuoso remixer Yasuharu Konishi, who's still in the form of his life at 58. If your idea of a perfect club night involves silky-smooth tunes and close contact with the DJs, this one should be a safe choice.
