If you'd rather stay at home than spend the whole of New Year's Eve listening to the incessant thump-thump of house and techno, why not spend it in the company of Japan's premier James Brown knock-off band instead? The deliriously energetic Osaka Monaurail are headlining this all-nighter at Ballo Ballo, an intimate venue in the basement of Shibuya's Tokyu Hands. You can also look forward to live jazz-hop from Afro Parker, Flying Lotus-esque electronica from Mabanua, assorted grooviness from Rhymester's DJ Jin and... well, pretty much anything from willfully eclectic turntablist L?K?O.
