concept
A new era of festivals is about to begin, where Creative and passion that will shake the world intersect.
Daito Manabe, an artist/musician who has shaken the world at the forefront of media art and continues to be invited to cutting-edge festivals around the world with his innovative expressions, and Beatink, which has continuously brought the forefront of music and art to Japan for over 30 years through performances and production projects, and has continued to update the scene, have deepened their relationship through numerous crossovers. Now, these two parties have joined forces to create an international art/music/technology festival that will be broadcast from Tokyo to the world. The foundation of this festival is "Flying Tokyo," a series of events that Daito Manabe has continued for 22 years since 2009. Utilizing his international network, this series has invited world-renowned artists and creators to hold talks, conferences, and audiovisual live performances, and has also functioned as a platform for nurturing the next generation of Creator. Now, the series is finally leaping into its next phase. Beatink, a label that has released a wide variety of works both domestically and internationally, will combine its unique network and planning capabilities to evolve into an unprecedented comprehensive platform encompassing a multi-layered program that spans the fields of music, art, and technology—from live performances, conferences, panel discussions, workshops, art exhibitions, and collaborative performances.

Furthermore, a cutting-edge audio/visual performance by Nosaj Thing and Daito Manabe will brilliantly kick off the festival.
DAY 2
KNOWER, comprised of Louis Cole and Genevieve Altadi, will headline the event, dominating the stage with their frenzied precision and explosive groove. Kassa Overall, who deconstructs and reconstructs the grammar of jazz and hip-hop to create an otherworldly musical language, returns to Japan. And Hakushi Hasegawa, a true maverick whom Japan should be proud of, will bring his own unique light to this lineup.
Performers
In 2009, this London-based DJ/producer shook the scene with his track "Hyph Mngo." Based at his own label, Hinge Finger, he effortlessly transcends genre boundaries, performing widely from BBC Radio 1 residencies to underground clubs and festivals. In 2021, he released the mixtape "still slipping vol.1" on XL Recordings, solidifying his position in the current UK dance scene. He has since released a string of important tracks, including "Bromley" with Overmono and "Freedom 2" featuring Quenfaith. In recent years, collaborations with Lil Yachty, Fred Again, and Playboi Carti have propelled him to even greater heights, solidifying his position as a leading figure in UK dance music.
Sabers of Paradise was a project formed in 1992 by the late Andrew Weatherall, along with Jugz Cooner and Gary Burns. In their short period of activity, they released two albums and several singles, and also started a rave party called "Sabersonic," becoming a legendary group that thrilled music freaks around the world in the 90s. In 1995, they ended their activities at Liquidroom, which was then located in Shinjuku. However, last year (2025), they suddenly announced a world tour and resumed activities after 30 years. And in July, they finally made their return to Japan with a Club Set.

Lorraine James, electronic music producer from North London, just released her latest album, "Detached From The Rest Of You," in May. She began learning music production techniques on her own as a teenager, using a MIDI keyboard and laptop. She transforms fragmented memories and genre-crossing sensibilities into her unique sound. Her talent caught the eye of Hyperdub, leading to the release of her debut album in 2019. Since then, her works have also received critical acclaim, solidifying her position as one of the leading contemporary British electronic artists, known for her innovative and unpredictable style.
A graduate of the Faculty of Education, Kyoto University, she creates chamber music centered on piano, field recordings, and sound works using electronic sounds, all centered around the theme of "strength in stillness." She has worked on a wide range of projects, including participation in the artist group "Dumb Type," stage productions by Hideki Noda, Kohei Nawa, and Mirai Moriyama, films such as "National Treasure" and "Wandering Moon," Yuzuru Hanyu's "Prequel," and NHK's "Sunday Art Museum" (co-written with Miu Sakamoto). She has received numerous awards, including both the Best Music Award and Best Theme Song Award at the 49th Japan Academy Awards.
A Seoul-based producer and DJ. As a new-generation artist in the Korean electronic music scene, he has garnered attention for his unique sound—which blends UK garage, jungle, breakbeats, and bass music with elements of hip-hop and experimental electronic music—and his innovative style.To date, he has collaborated and produced remixes across genres with artists such as Hudson Mohawke, aespa, Crush, So!YoON!, and Kim Ximya, earning high acclaim both domestically and internationally.In 2025, his track “Oving” won the Best Electronic Song award at the Korean Music Awards, one of South Korea’s most prestigious music awards.
Louis Cole and Genevieve Artadi formed this unconventional duo in 2009. They deconstruct and reconstruct jazz, funk, and electronic music—every genre—creating their own unique universe with explosive grooves that defy convention. Both are signed to Flying Lotus's Brainfeeder label as solo artists. Their self-released 2023 album, "Knower Forever," can be considered the culmination of their careers. Their frenzied pop sound, a fusion of their free-spirited ideas, and their live performances are unforgettable once you experience them.
Born in Seattle and based in New York, Kassa is a drummer, producer, rapper, and singer. While many artists attempt to bridge the gap between jazz and hip-hop, Kassa's approach, for which he has been nominated for a Grammy Award, is on another level. Jazz becomes rap, and rap returns to jazz—the process of transformation itself becomes music. His album "ANIMALS," released on Warp Records, features a star-studded lineup of guest artists, including Danny Brown. His latest work, "CREAM," has received high praise as an ambitious work that completely deconstructs and reconstructs classic hip-hop tracks using the grammar of jazz.
A musician based in Japan. In 2018, at the end of his teens, he made his CD debut with the EP "Kusaki Moedou," and the following year, his 1st album "Air ni ni" attracted attention both domestically and internationally, leading to appearances on Porter Robinson Organized by "Secret Sky" and Flying Lotus's streaming program "THE HIT." In 2023, he signed with Flying Lotus's label Brainfeeder. In July 2024, he released his 2nd album "Mahou Gakkou," further deepening his sound where experimentalism and the rawness of pop collide.
YPY is an electronic music solo project by musician and composer Koshichiro Hino. He also works as part of the duo project KAKUHAN with cellist Yuki Nakagawa, and leads the rhythm ensemble goat, which has received international acclaim for its highly organized, repetitive structures in a band format. With YPY, he creates music that traverses multiple contexts such as club music, minimalism, noise, and contemporary music, moving between the boundaries of the dance floor and experimental music. His rhythm ensemble work "Chronograffiti" won the 26th Keizo Saji Award (2025). He also composed the music for the film The Invisible Fight, which won the Best Composition Award at the Estonian Film Awards (EFTA) 2024.
