What is happening in your local music scene right now?
At Roosterhenhouse, a poultry farm in Hokuto, Yamanashi, we're renovating a house that had been sitting unused into a new space. Together with friends, we're in the middle of building it into an experimental ground for sound. We hold music events there, though irregularly.
What local spots would you recommend?
Café
MANGOSTEEN HOKUTO— 北杜市 / Hokuto
It sits in the middle of open countryside with sweeping views of the Southern Alps and Yatsugatake. You can watch the sunset with a craft beer or mezcal in hand, and they regularly host music events. If you ever visit Hokuto, it's a spot I'd love you to check out.

Prefuse 73. Back then I was listening to abstract hip hop, and I listened a lot to One Word Extinguisher by Prefuse 73, a.k.a. G. Scott Herren.
