Back in the J
My wife and I have just returned from our Europe trip, which took us to The Hague and Berlin. TodaysArt was a great experience, and MNML SSGS was very happy to have the opportunity to collaborate with them. Across the two nights, there was some really great music, with all the artists in the MNML SSGS room performing well. After The Hague, we spent a week in Berlin relaxing, seeing friends, buying records, enjoying the food, and checking plenty of great music. The trip was a very necessary one, and I am feeling much better balanced after it. And one of the big reasons we had such a good time was because of others. Thanks to Remco, Stacie and the rest of the TodaysArt crew for their help in the Hague, all the artists who played and to those that came and danced. In Berlin, thanks to friends old and new, and especially to Patrick for housing us, Hardwax for accepting a big pile of Cio D'Or and Dozzy CDRs (there are now some free copies of "J" available in the store), and the Ostgut crew who were very hospitable. Glad to be back in Tokyo, but already looking forward to our return to Europe in 2012.
Yes, Todaysart was perfect! I'm from Spain and its difficult to see artists playing music like mnmml SGSS room ,its not very often this kind of electronic music, at least in Madrid. My girlfriend and I enjoyed a lot.

Nice to meet you Chris and thanks for the Berghain ice cream recommendation :) What a club! Remembered one thing I forgot to thank you for - recommending the Olafur Eliasson exhibition on this blog last year - one of the coolest exhibitions I've seen. Keep up the great work!
