    I’ve posted a bunch of times about my friends Luis Mendo and Adrian Hogan, and all of their drawing activities in Tokyo — which of course includes their monthly PauseDraw series.

    Oh man, I really want to get my hands on these two compilation mixes, called Japanese Sounds, especially the Tatsuo Sunaga one — I was a big fan of Sunaga back in the Shibuya-kei days, and also quite enjoyed his live mixes from Tokyo’s Organ Bar.

    One of the things I love about Tokyo is how you come across these interesting juxtapositions of old and modern. It’s usually why sci-fi settings that take inspiration from Tokyo (like Blade Runner) feel so interesting and alive. Photo by Sean Brecht, found on Canvas.

    I’ve always liked the concept of Shimokitazawa’s B&B (book & beer), and now they’re expanding with a temporary (until March of next year) space in Ginza under the name Edit Tokyo, on the 6th floor of the Sony Building.
