Global boy group INI member Nishi Koto appeared as a DJ at the “NYLON JAPAN 20TH ANNIVERSARY PARTY” held at “ZEROTOKYO” in Kabukicho, Shinjuku on Friday, April 19th.
This event was held to commemorate NYLON JAPAN’s 20th anniversary with the June issue, which will be released on April 26th, and was held in two parts. The first part will be a special performance by this year’s featured artists. As the night progressed, the second part of the show got deeper, and in addition to the premium stage performances by the famous members, the strongest DJs gathered together to excite the audience. This time, Nishi appeared as the top batter in the second division. When he appears, a loud cheer goes up from the audience.
From there, he warmed up the venue with a song with a good rhythm and a pleasant rhythm, and then performed an arranged song that used some of the sound sources of “LEGIT” and “DROP”, and the audience swayed their bodies and moved their hands to the music. I could see them enjoying the rhythm as they gave it to each other.
Also, towards the end, members Rito Ikezaki, Takumi Ozaki, and Shogo Tajima, who had come to see the performance privately, jumped into the DJ booth and joined in. This surprise further excited the venue, and during the following “FANFARE”, the audience spontaneously chanted, creating a sense of unity in the venue, and the first DJ event ended with great success.
