On 3rd April, GACKT official facebook posted the announcement of the first batch of collaborating DJs who are prominent members of their industry. They are Jazztronik, STUDIO APARTMENT, ☆Taku Takahashi (m-flo / block.fm) and TOMOYUKI TANAKA (FPM). Fusing the genre and different approach to music by Japan’s top DJs, the possibilities of “Zipang Rock” will be widened, and GACKT strongly hopes that the underlying potential and charm of Japan’s creators will be spread globally.

In the Premium Edition that is available for pre-order in the GACKT STORE for a limited period only, it comes with a MEGA MIX Music Clip that is included in the record CD jacket. In this Music Clip, it is said to be a Mega Mix by Japan’s leading VJ who has been invited to Cannes’ MIDEM for 3 years in a row, VJ WADAKEN.

Information on the full concept of the music and video will be gradually released in the near future. Even from the DJ line-up that has been released thus far it is clear that we can look forward to future developments on this but, club music fans can guess that there will be big names involved.

Even if you’re not a fan, you’ll be interested to find out what the top DJs and GACKT, with his unique view of the world, will cook up. The pre-orders for the Limited Edition will begin from 3 April (Fri) and end on 3 May (Mon). It is available on the GACKT store.
