All of the tours held last year were instantly sold out, and the "Unreleased Songs Tour "Area Mirai"", which was made up entirely of unreleased new songs, was particularly unprecedented and caused a big stir. At the time of "Area Mirai", the songs did not yet have titles, but instead all 10 songs were performed with letters in front of them, and all of them have now been made into a form that will be included on the new album "Ginka". More details will be released at a later date.

In addition, they announced that they will hold their first nationwide Zepp tour "Gyoku-to" to promote their new album. The tour will start at Zepp Namba (OSAKA) on Sunday, June 22, 2025, and will visit a total of six venues until the finale at Zepp Haneda on Monday, August 11 (national holiday). Advance ticket sales will start on Friday, January 10, 2025 at 9:00 PM.

To celebrate her 15th anniversary, Natsuko Nisshoku not only looked back on her journey so far, but also boldly ventured into new territory.
We'll be keeping an eye on future developments. Let's look forward to further news.

● Comments from Natsuko Eclipse ●
When glass is buried underground or on the seafloor, it undergoes a chemical reaction with the surrounding microscopic substances, causing the glass components to form layers, which then scatter light and create a complex glow like a prism or the aurora.

"Area Mirai" in 2024, a venue with very limited capacity, will suddenly be showered with unreleased songs.
You guys responded much more strongly than we ever expected.
I feel like you gave the songs more energy than they would have received from a regular release during that tour.
They cause a strong reaction with each other, then contain it in a layer and release it back into the world.
That is our latest full album, "Ginka."

The release tour is a massive tour that will take place at venues as large as Zepp.
Silver is the color of the moon, and "Gyokuto" is another name for the moon.
This time, you will be treated to these "silvered" songs on a Zepp-scale scale.

I've arrived at that future day. It feels like it's time to make a decision. Maybe it's just my imagination.



<Natsuko Solar Eclipse Profile>
Born May 8, 1991 in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture.
Started playing the piano at the age of 9 and writing songs at the age of 12. From the age of 17, she started full-scale music activities based in Morioka as "Nisshoku Natsuko". The meticulously crafted lyric world and composition techniques that sway the heartstrings have attracted attention, and have appeared in many large festivals. Released in 2021, "Anti-Freeze" was selected as a prize-winning work at the 14th CD Shop Awards 2022, and in recent years he has also written many new movie theme songs and commercial music. Nisshoku Natsuko's dense music that she creates one after another knows no bounds in creativity, and her musical ability and performance, including her unique composition style that expresses guitar, bass, and sometimes even percussion parts such as drums with a single piano, are outstanding. It goes beyond the imagination and framework of a piano-playing artist. Strength, weakness, sharpness, ephemeralness, the piano music that runs at full speed pierces the listener's heart and provides a unique musical experience.

Comment from Hidemasa Otani, CEO of LD&K

“When I heard that Apollo Base was closing down, I was frankly stunned to find a property that was introduced by a real estate agent after about 10 performances of 'Sayonara Apollo Base' by artists affiliated with our company and related artists.

The landlord says that aging is a hoax. Who said

Our company was also looking for a property in Nagoya as a management base, but I have mixed feelings.

However, we have a policy not to lose the live house as much as possible, and both I and the vice president Sugawara are from Aichi Prefecture. Nice to meet you. 』

DJ live kids Aru Arunaka people revive TH HALL, a live house in front of local Kansai University

A certain person in DJ live kids. (Real name: Kaname Miki) will produce the revival of "TH HALL", a long-established live house in front of Hankyu Kandai, which closed last year due to the corona disaster.

Mr. Miki himself is a graduate of Kansai University, and the familiar "TH HALL" will be revived as "TH-R HALL" this spring with the cooperation of LD&K. Miki will also serve as the store manager.

[Live house information]
▼TH-R HALL
300 capacity standing seats, 120 chair seats.
1-6-16 TH Plaza Building 2F, Senriyamahigashi, Suita City, Osaka Prefecture

[Comment from LD&K CEO Hidemasa Otani]
We heard about "TH HALL" from our company Sugawara, who has been striving to liven up the nationwide live scene for some time. “A certain student from Kansai University says he wants to do it. ]. I immediately took a construction worker and went to see the interior.

Looking at the graffiti all over the dressing room, I felt the history and came to me. “Leave this place as it is. ’ and made a contract that day. Good luck to you. Thank you very much.

[Comments from people in DJ Live Kids]
nice to meet you.
My name is Miki and I will be the manager of TH-R HALL.

I am also a DJ and event planner under the name of a person who usually has live kids.

Originally, I was in charge of the event planner from the light music club at Kansai University.
At that time, I was immersed in the charm of live houses and learned about the fun of event planning, and even after 10 years, I still plan various events with the desire to increase the number of people who come to live houses.

In 2020, the threat of corona hit the live house. A bandman who can't perform live, a live house that closes. Then, I saw many students in the light music circle who could hardly do anything, and as a result of searching for a form that I could do because I was from light music, I decided, "I want to continue lighting the light music scene at the university and the band scene in the region." Thinking, I ran for the manager of TH-R HALL this time.

~ For university light music groups ~
I think there are a lot of light sound groups who haven't been active for almost a year. If the executives have not been handed over, I would like to thoroughly consult with them about how to communicate with live houses, concerns about club management, how to plan events, and so on. Let's liven up the light sound scene of college students together!

~ For those who are in a band locally ~
I think that many artists, from students to working adults, live in this area. We are planning various events, from copy band events to original events, so that everyone can play music. In addition to event planning, I would like to use my experience so far to help the band's activities progress. Feel free to visit us if you have any concerns about band activities.

~To everyone who loves this place~
I've heard a lot of people say, "This place is the first live house for me."
With a strong desire to "protect a place for people who want to play music", I will hold a live house at this place.

Sincerely.

Miki Kaname / People in Live Kids

LD&K Co., Ltd., collaborated with discberry Co., Ltd. and LINE to launch a live distribution subscription service platform “SUBSCRIBE LIVE”

Live distribution of LINE company with LD&K Co., Ltd. (18-4 Udagawa-cho, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Hidemasa Otani) as the secretariat
Launched subscription service platform “SUBSCRIBE LIVE”.

The distribution image quality, which was a matter of concern, uses the recording and editing system of discberry Co., Ltd., which has a proven track record in professional sports distribution.
Beyond that, we will also consider VR compatibility.

The administrative office will be set up within LD&K Co., Ltd.
The monthly membership fee is set at 580 yen. Regarding membership fee revenue, it is a live house that agrees with the theme of this time, "SAVE THE LIVE".
By distributing it, we also support the survival of the live house.

In order not to increase the burden on live houses and artists, the secretariat will provide equipment and operators related to distribution until March next year.
Paid and paid for free.
We will also utilize a donation system for artists with various items.
The service is scheduled to start at the end of June or early July.

[Comment from Hidemasa Otani, representative of the management office LD&K]
“Actually, we have been talking about subscription distribution for quite some time. However, before COVID-19, the performance of live houses was strong, and the site was not very interested in distribution.
Strangely enough, this kind of situation happened, and it was finally announced.
We received many thank you emails from many people when we did a free live broadcast of "Uchikubi Gokumon Doukoukai". These are people who cannot come to the actual live performance due to physical reasons such as childcare, nursing care, overseas or living in a rural area.
It was then that I became even more convinced of the demand for the live streaming business.
I can't imagine a world without live performances, let alone live houses. However, the revival of live houses is still a long way off.
This time, in order to minimize the burden on the live house side, the secretariat will provide the equipment and operators involved in the distribution free of charge until March next year.
This is a project that will continue for a long time even after Corona, and will be a support project for artists and everything related to live performances.
Live is immortal. Go positive. Thank you very much. 』

Osaka Umeda Shangri-La has a support plan to solicit operating funds, personnel expenses, etc. during the self-restraint period
It was announced today that it will start at 13:00 on April 20 (Monday).

This project will start with support as part of the ["we fan" presents # Ongaku no Chikara Project] announced by the crowdfunding system "wefan" operated by LD&K.

The reward for the project is the "SAVE THE SHANGRILA" logo that can only be obtained this time.

Osaka Umeda Shangri-La
Since its opening, it has hosted various planning events and live performances under the theme of Hundred Flowers, and is now called a live house that acts as a gateway to success for bandmen and musicians from all over the country.
In addition, now, even bands that perform large-scale festivals and hall-class live performances and are often exposed to the media are making appearances as if they were returning home. We have received calls for support, and have made a strong determination to protect it as a live house.
Taking this opportunity, we will convey the wonderfulness of the place called a live house, and all the staff will work harder for the development and future of music culture in Kansai.

[From General Manager Ryota Kii]

Shangri-La is currently in an unprecedented crisis.
The country and the world are facing an unprecedented crisis.
Our company LD&K is taking the impact of this new corona in the middle of the restaurant, live house, music office.
Our company is also facing this situation with loans and public funds, but our survival is in danger due to the unpredictable self-restraint, postponement, and cancellation.
I am very sorry to ask you all in such a difficult situation,
If it's all right with you, could you please cooperate so that Shangri-La can once again contribute to and repay the music culture in Osaka and Kansai?
