This music live is active in the corona sword as part of "YOU MAKE SHIBUYA Cloud Funding" that supports industries that support Shibuya's culture, such as entertainment and fashion affected by the spread of the new coronavirus infection in the summer of 2020. The purpose is to provide a place for expression and transmission to artists who are restricted. Bands and musicians related to Shibuya will perform live performances at "Virtual Shibuya" officially recognized by Shibuya Ward, which incorporates cutting-edge digital technology, by utilizing the support money collected by crowdfunding and the financial resources of Shibuya Ward. A large number of applications were gathered for the performer recruitment held in early February, and a total of 100 groups including artists selected from them and artists recommended by the live house are scheduled to appear. On the opening day of March 31st (Wednesday), three groups of "The Challenge", "sooogood!" And "Wez Atlas" will appear. Detailed information such as additional artist appearances and schedules will be posted on the official website at any time.

The virtual live house "SHIBUYA UNDER SCRAMBLE powered by au 5G" where this music live will be held can be entered from the entrance at the Shibuya scramble intersection in "Virtual Shibuya". The venue, which was created in the image of the underground space of the Shibuya Scramble intersection, will provide an unprecedented musical experience to all people who enjoy entertainment as a place to create new music and culture from the underground of the Shibuya intersection. ..

Future Design Shibuya and KDDI will continue to expand the experience in virtual Shibuya and develop it as a service platform that symbolizes the 5G era.

Comments from stakeholders

Ken Hasebe, Mayor of Shibuya
"Thank you for your support in the crowdfunding that was held in the summer of 2020 to keep the culture of Shibuya. We are working with Shibuya Ward to support fashion, entertainment, eating and drinking, and beauty salon businesses in sequence. However, as the spread of the new coronavirus infection continues for a long time, the activities and places of expression of artists, performers, performers, etc. who have been active in Shibuya are restricted, and the bud of culture has sprung up. I am afraid that it will be cut off. With the opening of a virtual live house in Shibuya Ward official "Virtual Shibuya", I hope that the place of activity will expand and new entertainment will be transmitted from Shibuya. I would like you to utilize this virtual live house as one of the ways to enjoy entertainment.

The scrambled intersection in Shibuya, which is recognized by people all over the world and has become a global spot in Japan that you want to visit at least once. In the underground space of the scrambled intersection, you can create a virtual live house that can send music performances to the whole world! What a wonderful thing!
I can't hide my excitement.
Due to the spread of corona infection, the means of expressing music performance has to evolve.
One form of that evolution is online live. There are various ways to approach it, but creating a live transmission spot in the basement of the Shibuya Scramble intersection in this way further enhances the enjoyment of the live itself and raises expectations.
The advantage of online is that it has the potential to gather in places from all over the world, regardless of distance. I hope that many people will come into contact with wonderful Japanese artists, music, and performances, and that new talents and content will be transmitted from the virtual city of Shibuya and grow up.

The effects of the new coronavirus infection have hit artists, live houses, and the music industry unprecedentedly. It was a year in which I felt powerless and frustrated as a musician who had been involved in the field for about 20 years as a bandman.
Under various restrictions, changes and evolution of expression methods are required, and the virtual live house "SHIBUYA UNDER SCRAMBLE powered by au 5G" was born as a place to embody the digital transformation (DX) of the entertainment experience. .. Shibuya-ku official "Virtual Shibuya", and the performance transmitted from this live house will be transmitted to the world beyond the restrictions of time and distance. This is a completely new attempt that is unique to Shibuya as a source of world-class culture!
KDDI will hold "YOU MAKE SHIBUYA VIRTUAL MUSIC LIVE powered by au 5G" with various partners including Future Design Shibuya. It's a very exciting initiative where 100 groups of artists related to Shibuya will perform live, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of performance will be born from this advanced space! I myself am a member involved in the operation of "Virtual Shibuya", and while making use of my experience as a musician, there are new possibilities for artists and live houses who support this project, and for customers who participate in live performances. We will do our best to make you feel. Please look forward to it!

YOU MAKE SHIBUYA VIRTUAL MUSIC LIVEExecutive Committee / Future Design Shibuya Director / Deputy Secretary General
Shinko Osada
At the YOU MAKE SHIBUYA crowdfunding held last year, we received the support of so many people and talked with the music industry, live house officials and artists about how to put their thoughts into shape. We have been discussing with the team every day and proceeding with the plan. The plan was forced to change due to the ever-changing situation of Corona, but as a result of aiming to create a live distribution platform like Shibuya and a place for artists and performers to send out without compromising, it is virtual. We came to the conclusion that we will create a live house space in the basement of the scrambled intersection in Shibuya to provide an unprecedented live experience.
From the virtual live house in the basement of the scrambled intersection, which is a symbol of Japan, 100 groups of artists related to Shibuya will perform, so I hope that many people will come and visit us. .. In addition, although it took some time to realize this, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the partners who have progressed so far.
