BIPPSophie
SOPHIE is the solo project of Samuel Long, a male producer on the music label PC Music, which is at the forefront of promoting a new genre called bubblegum bass.
This track perfectly fits the name “bubblegum bass,” evoking a poppy, colorful, candy-like feel.
It’s an extremely cute yet danceable song.

SPECIAL OTHERS are active with a style centered on improvisational performance.
They frequently appear at festivals around the country and are supported by many fans.

They also have collaborative tracks with other artists, which have been generating buzz as well.
KhonSlot Machine
Formed in 2010, the Thai rock band Slot Machine is coming to Japan for Fuji Rock.
Emerging from Thailand—a country not often associated with rock bands—they’ve been gaining popularity worldwide.
With guitar tones and vocals that can only be described as truly emo, their performance is absolutely a must-listen.
Sumo JungleSoichi Terada
Soichi Terada, who is also active as a video game music composer.
Among his signature works are the Circle K Sunkus commercial song and tracks from the game Ape Escape—chances are you’ve heard some of them.
He has been performing actively overseas and earning growing acclaim, so it’s very exciting to see what his stage performance will be like.

The British rock band Stereophonics will also perform at Fuji Rock.
With five consecutive UK number-one albums and large-scale concerts held at castles across the country, they are one of the UK’s leading artists.
In Japan, they’ve performed at Fuji Rock twice before and appeared at ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION’s NANO-MUGEN FES., making them a truly cross-border, popular act.
