One type is a club that functions like a community for enjoying specialized music.
The other is a club that plays tracks you can dance to, above all else.

This time, we’ve picked out the latest tracks from Japan’s club music scene.
We’ve selected from a variety of genres, including EDM and house, so we think even hardcore fans of electronic music will enjoy it.
