A night of Japanese and Indian influences meeting together in different layers. This is a collaboration between the London spin-off of Japanese independent label/record shops branching all over Japan, Jazzy Sport London and Sitarist, Tommy Khosla's Vadi Records made possible in a place such as London where diverse cultures are constantly jamming together. In addition to music, we invite friends who create handcrafted items inspired by music and community.

Jazzy Sport is an independent record label and store branching all over Japan since 2002, composed of a group of hardcore music and sports lovers who invite all Earth-Beings.
As a London branch, we do radios, parties, journals and production to connect the music scene in Tokyo and London. Eventually, build a sound route around the world and exchange creative crafts born in each homeland.
We select music from what we’ve experienced and seen, building a dance floor with love and groove.
