Shibuya of radio / "Shibuya Parco Last Dance _" (2016/7/22)

Second place: "Shibuya of radio" started broadcasting, resurrection community FM in the city of Shibuya!
In the past, in Shibuya, there was a community FM called "SHIBUYA-FM" based in Mark City, pause being missed from the circumstances, such as financial difficulties in 2013. Through the years of the three years, as the representative director of the Ms. Michihiko Yanai of "Wind and Rock", the original of full cooperation, such as Shibuya shopping Association Federation, "Shibuya of Radio" in April last year (management: NPO corporation CQ, frequency: 87.6Mhz) has started broadcasting. The studio is a 5-minute walk from Shibuya Station east exit, the first floor of Thanksgiving prime building that lies ahead, across the Shibuya River from gold King Bridge along the Meiji street. Or the like can be except for the appearance of each personality in the live broadcast through the glass from the road surface, it is characterized by open spaces of radio stations unique local contact. Most of the charm of "Shibuya of radio" is, I would say what colorful personality team. Singer Maki Nomiya's representative of the Shibuya system in the 1990s, and Hideki Kaji-san, et al musicians, HKT48 theater manager other Rino Sashihara's et al. Kominyuti FM Rashikara unexpected luxurious appearance team of, "Shibuya of the radio is not on the radio to listen to Yanai's words as of that is the radio ", such as people and workers who live in Shibuya, every day, it is a variety of guests related to the Shibuya appearance leaving. That the number is up to about 4,000 people nearly nine months.
Studio right) Yadorikifuji Bunpei's in the left) on the air has produced "Shibuya of Radio" logo
The people who visited the studio is uniformly feel, would be like a harmonious atmosphere and nostalgia, such as a clubroom. Even people with each other for the first time met, the same only with a new wheel keyword "Shibuya" spread. As a place that connects such a person and the person of the edge, the studio is not to be missed is the point that is functioning. First, although the same radio that got off to a good start dash of auspicious, the next five years, in order to continue to persist with the 10 years, sales and systems, program content, such as listening rate, still challenges remain. Put to the test can be said To the future.
The studio is peep from the street through the window. When the popular artists of the guests, a lot of fans gather.
By the way, the same name of the radio program web site even "Shibuya Cultural Project", being broadcast to every other Wednesday at 15 am to 16. Program personality is in charge of the western tree editor-in-chief of Shibuya Keizai Shimbun, such as Shibuya departure of culture and events from the re-development of Shibuya, has promoted the talk welcomed guests to the theme of hot topic every time. Please listen by all means once.

Third place: the scramble intersection in Hoko heaven! - Halloween, New Year's Eve countdown
Although the pros and cons are, already it is becoming established as a fall tradition of Shibuya "Halloween". Since last year's October 31, Halloween day is "Monday", Halloween event was followed by substantial four days until the weekend of October 28 (Friday) to 31 days (month). Do where police also Shibuya-ku, nor each mall is most of the peak, became a difficult situation that quite expected to stand.
Left) 28 days (gold) is turnout was less in the rain. Right) 31 days (month) is fancy dress party is full of scramble crossing.
Take the first day of the 28 days (gold) from morning to rain continues, perhaps because was chilly front and rear also 11 ℃ temperature, annual turnout is absolutely no, young people to fancy dress is sparse. The following day Saturday the weather will turn around, was full of a lot of people. From the full risk to the congestion first time and scramble intersection of Center Street until last year, SHIBUYA109 and around Dogenzaka, temporarily restricted traffic the cultural village street, was performed for the first time an attempt is made to the pedestrian. Certainly near the scramble intersection traffic volume of motor vehicles also many, Hallam is also the risk of such accidents and terrorism. Than regulation to force the behavior of pedestrians, it can be said the idea of ​​reversing that rather "better to open the road is able to ensure the safety of the traffic."
Such a bold attempt last year New Year's Eve, be practiced "countdown event" in the scramble crossing a collection of more than 60,000 of the crowd, it would be that surely helped also to simulations for the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.

6 place: to "Shibuya of talk" - in the-top birthday of "Calcar" "loft"
While the news of the "re-development" was noticeable in the higher, but "talk" that is attracting attention as a new trend of Shibuya Culture.

Similar to "LOFT9 Shibuya", "Tokyo Culture Culture", which has been operating in Odaiba, moved to Shibuya last December. The restaurant, which has been launched by IT company Nifty since 2007, is based on the concept of "where the internet and real connect", with live music, comedy, corporate events, product promotions, etc., centered on talk events. . It may be a coincidence that the two tops of "Talk Live", which can be considered a rival relationship, came to Shibuya at the same time, but I feel a mysterious edge in any way. Shibuya has been called by various synonyms such as "city of movie", "city of music" and "city of fashion" until now, but the title as "town of talk" is also newly added. If you think about it, various events are held every day in the event space "8 / court" of Shibuya Hikarie 8F which opened in 2012 and many coworking spaces dotted in Shibuya, and as "Shibuya = live entertainment" The color tone of is likely to increase more and more.

others,7 place "" Xavi "reform" Top Museum "Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography". Reopened to the museum two years to represent Japan, Hiroshi Sugimoto exhibitions and World Press Photo exhibition last year, such as New Cosmos of Photography Tokyo Exhibition, high exhibition planning quality was held.8 place, "two teams participating from Shibuya!

If anything, I think I'm sure many people to recall the Shibuya scramble intersection rise in the soccer game, with the participation of two teams, based in Shibuya "San Rockers Shibuya," "Arubaruku Tokyo", the future of the B league some of the upsurge Ikan, ... Shibuya might go been established as "basketball of the holy Land".

However, last year occurred graffiti incident to the body in the summer, the preventive measures to be considered. Many people gather autumn of Halloween also serves as the prevention of graffiti and vandalism, Sanrio character blue frog that was wrapping the body in the "Pomupomu purine" specification appeared to collect the big topic. To further the end of the countdown event was first held, such as to transform into a "Hello Kitty" specification, likely with the tradition of blue frog of wrapping a seasonal future.

Again, it has been back at the "Shibuya of the news of 2016". Such as noticeable topic of redevelopment around Parco temporary closed and the train station, at first glance, people might often former Shibuya spirited feel that had been completely lost. However, I never do that. Attracts people who love Shibuya in "Shibuya of radio", it has always continued to information outgoing raw "only Shibuya". In addition to Maruyama-cho, "LOFT9 Shibuya", to open the "Tokyo Culture Culture" before Koen Miyashita, live entertainment of Shibuya feel as if you are rapidly accelerating. Only because now of SNS era, born of value in the "realistic" that can not only experience in Shibuya. The prime example is the Halloween of the autumn, probably a year-end countdown event.

Than a year this year I think I would like to record a lot of "Shibuya of realistic".
