Do you know BOOKOFF?
BOOKOFF is large used book store chain in Japan.
You can see them in every big city.
They are selling not only used books,
but also used CDs and DVDs and Blue-rays,watches etc.
Its so to speak thriftshop shop.

Some of them are selling used clothing too.
Clothes of famous brand like ralph lauren, comme des garcons,
are sorted by their brand name.
These products are sold at proper price.

But clothes which are made by not famous brands or clerk don't know
are gathered together at cheaper price.
This corner is good place to dig.

As Japanese people tends to use much money on clothes,
and BOOKOFF have large network of buying in all over Japan,
the knowledge of each shop's clerks can't catch up with it.
So there are good clothes buried.

If you are lucky or knowledgeable or having good feeling,
you can find good items at cheap price.

Machida BOOKOFF are the larger of all groups. 

This large used clothing building is located in front of diskunion machida.

So if you go to dig in diskunion machida,

Machida is the south-west edge of Tokyo.
Take a 30-40min ride of Odakyu line,
and you'll in the conventional suburban city.

Disk Union Machida is strong at hiphop and sampling source.
Though I've never been to night clubs and dj bars in machida,
I hear hiphop and reggae is popular.

But sometimes I've found nice house records and Japanese pops
at good price.
And It is good point that this shop is not so crowded.
So you can spend time in digging comfortably.

What I've gotten

Introduction:Dance Music Lovers Only

Hello.
I'm a music lover in Tokyo.
I' going to write mainly about night clubs and record shops in Tokyo.
And sometimes springs,and restaurants and something around music spot.
Mostly the spots I love.

This is the blog especially for dance music freaks.
Why dance music?

At first,I define the word "Dance music " in this blog,
as deep house,techno,disco,rare groove,club jazz,rock.
These are just my favorites.And its OK.

When I take a trip to overseas,
I feel like to dance in that city.

I want to see and experience deep scene of the city.
But it's always a little bit labor to find good music spot,
without friends who live there,
because When I google "night club",
the results are so many in the big city like Tokyo.

So,
I hope this blog would be the guidance for the travelers
who are going to come to Tokyo or already in Tokyo.
