The opening party will be themed on the upcoming feudal brawler Sengoku Basara, featuring music from the game throughout the night and episodes of the anime being screened at the venue's private cinema courtesy of Manga Entertainment. Other gaming music on the playlist includes tracks and remixes from Star Ocean, Street Fighter and Final Fantasy, and will be accompanied by music DJed from Retro Gamer columnist and Absolute Radio star Iain Lee, NEO Magazine's contributing Japanese music editor Tom Smith, plus live music from:
10 (“The zaniest experimental music in Asia” – TimeOut) boy/girl Japanese/Korean experimental electro couple playing their debut UK show, and:
A rare show by Cosmic Shenngy (“An ambassador for the Chinese avant-garde” – TIME) one time 'Hang the Box' drummer (China's first punk rock band who signed to Cherry Red) and daughter of a Cosmonaught!
A select number of tickets are available for £5 in advance from http://www.wegottickets.com/event/92888 Tickets will also be available for £6 on the door - Cosplayers and flyer-holders get in for £5.
