Re: (313) Japan
I went there recently and was totally lost. The language barriers are very profound. Disk Union is the best store that I could find and even had a wall dedicated to Movement. The Tower Records in Shibuya was great for electronic music and urban and soul. There is an English language mag Metropolis which is more lifestyle. I like Remix magazine but can only look at it and is probably best for electronic reviews. I found it frustrating not being able to converse, though I tried with my dodgy phrase book. I didn't go out much, stayed in reading Thomas Hardly which didn't do much to alleviate my spirits. Wonderful country, but would have been more fun if I'd had company methinks! One night I went to a club-cum-design store called Sputnik which was great. It's one of those days where I just rattle on to myself. Oh well. Anyway, can anyone help me? Have you ever been to Japan?

I am going to a junket to Tokyo for 5 days and don't know much at all other than it's super cool. Does anyone have any practical travel tips? These are the things worrying me: 1. Is it hard moving around, ie from airport into city, by train? Is there any English signage? 2. Is it hard to get vegetarian food in Japan, as I have heard so? I don't eat any fish or fish byproducts at all... Dairy is OK. 3. Do they have coffee freely available (Starbucks, anything)? Pathetic as it is, I need coffee more than food or I become semi-conscious and it can trigger my migraines (not a joke!). Please e-mail me in private

Hello all, I said I would post a report of July's Future Music Festival a while back ... of course I forgot, but now there are two articles I wrote in circulation: Spin Online: http://www.spin.com/heavy/nowfeaturing/1999/08/20/1/index2.html Raygun: latest issue with Missy Elliot on the cover (you'll notice the article by Spin's mistakingly labeling a picture of DJ Krush as Ken Ishii. Doh!). -d Dan Sicko http://www.reverbmag.com http://www.techno-rebels.com
