Tokyo’s #1 House Party crew, the Boogie Night Crew, took the time to get on this journey to educate the people of Hong Kong, what Full Entertainment is. 10 members of the crew, including the 3 sexy Boogie Ladies, the 4 Boogie DJs who play insane sets, flew in just to provide a night for us with the most outrageous performances! When two of Asia’s busiest cities meet, we here as the host, should be polite enough to thank them with this - “Arigatou”!!
A: Alyson
Y: DJ Yan
D: DJ Daruma
H: Hidehisa Hara (Organizer)
A: Welcome to Hong Kong, are you all doing?
All: Yeah!!
A: I need you to correct me if I’m wrong… Konichiwa!!
All: Right right… Konichiwa!!
A: So what do you think of Hong Kong so far? You been here before?
D: No no no… first time…
A: First time? D’ya like it?
D: Yeah yeah!
A: What can we expect from the Boogie Night event? I know you’re playing…
D: Ehhh… (Our) style is house music, but not just house music, we like funky bass-line, (but we have 4 DJs, so we have different styles…) Like Daruma, me, my house style is not just funky house, (there’s) hip-hop flavor, electro flavor, and Rock’n Roll flavor, so that’s my house style.
Y: My style, basically French House, Rock’n Roll… and Romantic!!
A: Romantic?
All: (LOL)
A: That sounds like 3 different things? How do you mix them all together??
A: If you can play anywhere in the world, where would you like to go?
D: I went to Korea last Christmas, and I need to go to Europe…
A: Cool. Before you come to Hong Kong, what did you expect?
H: I think… of course this is the first time for us, I think Hong Kong is a very exciting city, we love European culture, and Hong Kong has many many English culture, I think England, Chinese culture mix, very interesting… and exciting city… and the town is very very beautiful, and people are so hot, and I think the music is very hot…
We came to Hong Kong this time with 10 people, so all the Boogie Night staff are here together, we want to tell HK people, our flavor, Tokyo #1 house party flavor, want to know if we feel the same thing together!
A: Compare Hong Kong to Tokyo, is it still very crazy and busy?
All: Yeah!
Y: People!
A: The people… yeah, people never walk, they run!
All: Yeah yeah yeah!!
A: Now, I have never been to Tokyo, what would you tell me to make me wanna go to Tokyo even more?
D: Tokyo is a mixing culture of two, American and European, and Japan. But this is the original Tokyo flavor. Tokyo’s crowd scene is so big, so many crowds in Tokyo, big crowds and small crowds, everybody likes night clubbing, so young culture of night clubbing, and everybody DJs! There are so many record shops, everybody goes to record shops and (look for records)!
A: How did the whole Boogie Night idea come together?
D: Boogie Night started since last year, and we like hip-hop style in Tokyo, but hip-hop is very (commercialized) in Tokyo, we like danceable music, in the world, maybe last year, the mainstream was dance music, maybe funky house style, we like funky bass-line music, so we went to many kind of crowds in Tokyo, house music, techno music, and the good (feedback) is funky house, is ours!! Sorry… I’m not speaking very good English…
A: So what would you like to bring back to Japan from Hong Kong? It can be just an object, or it can be very spiritual…
H: Especially, tonight’s party is very cool and beautiful… so many beautiful people will come, clubber people, we are the people of Tokyo club people, and every weekend we go clubbing… stylish clubs, French clubs… I wanna know the worldwide people, the clubber people, the stylish people, I wanna know the culture, the club culture in HK, and maybe we can see the very good culture of Hong Kong clubbers!
D: (Taking his camera out)
H: The people are very kind, I think the town is very exciting!
A: I hope you would enjoy your stay in Hong Kong, and good luck with the show~!
