Japan\u2019s festival calendar will broaden with an eccentric addition that promises an experience beyond what is typical. It’s called\u00a0Ens\u014d. Backed by experimental arts promoter REITIN, the event will record its first iteration at the \u014cya History Museum, a 400-year-old retired stone\u00a0quarry\u00a0based in Utsunomiya, Tochigi. \u014cya, currently used as a cultural center, dates all the way back to the Edo Period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From April 10-11, Ens\u014d\u00a0will coalesce with Japanese DJs and globally known dance acts at the self-described \u201cfestival for sonic and visual arts,\u201d such as Renick Bell, Ena, YPY, and Yuji Kondo, who are slated to perform at the festival\u2019s Underground Stage. Ens\u014d\u2019s second stage, The Cave Listening stage, will welcome performances from Akey, 7e, and AKIRAM EN, among others, with more artists to be announced in the months leading up to the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
