Birth of DJ MAG JAPAN

DJ MAG JAPAN was founded in Tokyo. DJ MAG JAPAN is putting effort into publishing interviews with musicians as we focus on introducing real-time information to Japan and Asia about what the leading artists are thinking and doing NOW in the world, something which has until recently been consumed exclusively in English. Localized articles translated into Japanese are another contribution to the industry. DJ MAG JAPAN is unique in its ‘crossover’ of four elements: media, event, education, and label. Besides this, DJ MAG hosts “DJ MAG Creators Salon” to elevate Japanese talent. It helps artists with not only making music, but social marketing and essential know-how as an artist. Furthermore, DJ MAG picks promising DJs and Producers to support study abroad in partner schools and promote releases overseas. Also, for the future of the country, making these two rankings “Best of Japan – DJ/Producers Ranking U-29” and “Best of Japan – CLUBS” an established brand with DJ MAG HQ, DJ MAG JAPAN introduces the current club culture in Japan to the western world. DJ MAG JAPAN is the most powerful Asian member of the “DJ MAG Global Network” consisting of 17 countries and regions.
