I have had the urge to travel for as long as I can remember and have lived in Canada, the United States and Japan.  Traveling is food for my soul, I learn something new everyday, and I try to take a childlike sense of wonder with me wherever I...

One of Tokyo clubland's best

    The city has a thriving music scene, surprisingly diverse with some genres of music enjoying very high levels of popularity, think of the huge numbers of Ska and Rockabilly fans here. Of course J-Pop is probably the most popular, however, Tokyo is also considered a major center for electronic music. With many clubs, DJs and record labels, there is no shortage of places to find and enjoy good music. Liquid Room in Ebisu, and Womb in Shibuya are just two clubs that draw crowds on the weekend. One club that has been bringing some of the best artists from Europe, the U.S., and South America is known simply as Yellow. Located in on a non-descript street in Nishi Azabu, marked with a simple yellow neon sign, not far from Roppongi Hills this medium-sized club is extremely well-regarded as a House music venue. A night at Yellow is often a fun-filled, music-fueled highlight of the weekend that can last well into the early morning. People are here for the music and to have a really good time. The focus is pure enjoyment and there is a dearth of loud, obnoxious loutish behaviour that can mar a night out. With fans out to simply relax and dance to their favorite DJs, parties here often generate a friendly, open atmosphere conducive to meeting people and making new friends. It’s easy to let your guard down, to chat, to smile and to stay out on the dancefloor for hours.
   The venue is on the lower level with a winding, circular staircase and a different rooms off the main dance floor. The sound system is fairly new and more than adequate to showcase DJs, like Friday night in-house DJ Ko Kimura. The entry fee depends on the artist, usually somewhere around 4,500 yen. Space is quite limited so bringing anything more than absolutely necessary is not a good idea. Thinking of a night out? Then make your way to one of clubland’s best party spots at Yellow in Nishi Azabu.
