Because MCA is already gone... I was experience to the Beastie Boys music told me from my skater friends. I met their sounds from album Check Your Head. I started purchased their vinyl 12 inches from that encounter.

I introduce most pleased house DJ. His real name is Eiji Sugiura. DJ name is SUGIURUMN. He is HOUSE DJ and electromusic creator representing Japan of HOUSE.His own musical piece which he produced maintains balance very much. If it is called house music, in Japan, the vocal of a love song is put on a track and there is much music of the beautiful melody by a synthesizer.

The YAMANI SOY SAUCE
This hand painted sign is famous and popular soy sauce brand in Kitakyushu City. The name is YAMANI. It's more sweet than Tokyo soy sauce. My friend told me "You know son of this YAMANI soy sauce company". We were surprised it. We will become good customer of this YAMANI soy sauce. Also I like this signs graphic!! This is very old typography in Japan. This bold type made by EDO period about 300years before. This type looks like a Tachibana-Ryu in the EDOMOJI inspired from Kantei-Ryu. But Tachibana-Ryu don't have like this punk edge. This type is maybe originally inspired from EDOMOJI. Also I like this pink and red coloring. This YAMANI company born in 1915. I think nobody never seen like this coloring in this TAISHO period. This door is warehouse of YAMANI company factory. Produce factory were place in backside of this warehouse. You can see this YAMANI soy sauce in any market or store in Kitakyushu City and around City.

Amazing Japanese Manners

In the house in Japan, two swords that are called KATANA are always put on somewhere. When fickleness comes to light, it is cut with KATANA by other party's partner. When the little finger is chopped down for myself, the crime might be permitted. It is necessary to cut the belly with short KATANA when failing because of work. At that time, it is manners in a surrounding person to drop the neck with long KATANA....
