■KNOCK OUT MONKEY
A four-piece rock band nicknamed “Kobe’s Wild Monkeys.”
Their music is characterized by a mixture of rock that devours various genres, a catchy sound that is unique to Japanese people, and lyrics that emphasize the Japanese language and express their emotions. They have performed at many festivals and collaborated with artists both in Japan and abroad, and their spectacular live performances are a must-see. The live atmosphere created by the band’s highly skilled musicians and the charisma of w-shun, who inspires himself and makes the audience dance wildly, is something you should definitely experience in person.
■Schrödinger’s Dog
A six-member idol group born from the idol project “Cinderella’s Dog Project.”
Debuted at Shinjuku BLAZE on December 22, 2020. The concept is EDM x Rock.
■CYNHN
“CYNHN” means “blue.”
The group consists of Ayase Shiki, Tsukigumone Neru, and Aoyagi Toru, who were selected through a joint audition by DEARSTAGE and JOYSOUND, as well as Hirose Minori, who was selected at the 2022 Spring DEARSTAGE Perfect Music Joint VOCALIST AUDITION.
They deliver songs as an “unfinished blue vocal unit” with music that evokes the world of “blue”, visuals and performances that focus on “blue”, and lyrics that are “blue” and life-sized by Sho Watanabe, who writes many of their songs. In addition, the members are involved in choreography, costume production, and merchandise design, making this a unit where each member’s creativity shines.
