I’ll be at Weebcon in Irving, TX doing my City Pop panel on April 19th. I am still talking and emailing the organizers about it, as 10 AM is too early of a schedule for me…

A very happy belated Valentine’s Day! I am sorry that I am late with this. Things happen. Here’s CITY POP AFTER HOURS: THE LOVE MIX! This mix is curated for lovers only! #シティポップ #citypop #citypopdj #djlife #grandprairietexas #grandprairie #texas #dfw #dfwdj

50 years ago today, Linda Ronstadt breaks through when her album Heart Like a Wheel and single "You're No Good" both hit #1 in America, establishing her as one of the biggest stars of the '70s.

It is ridiculous that “Summer-Time Love Song” by The Milky Way is hard to find on LP and once it’s on sale, it’s not cheap. Nobody on Discogs, eBay and Yahoo! Japan auctions are selling it. It’s even hard to find used at Japanese record stores as well. The last reissue was 2017. #citypop

I got a new City Pop mix! Head over to my Mixcloud to listen! Enjoy! #シティポップ #citypop #citypopdj #djlife #grandprairietexas #grandprairie #texas #dfw #dfwdj

Don’t EVER give up your dreams! You want to DJ? Do it! You want to host a podcast or Twitch talking and sharing these wonderful tunes of 70s-80s Bubble Era Japan? Go for it! This goes for anything, really. We only live once and we have to make the best of life! Go out! Have fun! Play these jams!

"I almost forgot, fellow babies: BOOGER!"

46 years ago today, Queen released 'Don't Stop Me Now,' a timeless anthem that scientists agree is the world's most effective song to make you feel good!

Junko Yagami (b. 1958) is perhaps best known for her 1983 songs “Tasogare No Bay City” and “Yozora No Earring.” However, I find her first album, “Omoide Wa Utsukushisugite,” from 1978, very underrated. This is a live performance of “Toki No Nagare Ni.” #junkoyagami #citypop #シティポップ #八神純子 #70s

Maria Hasahina (b. March 15, 1952), is an Italian-Japanese singer and accessories designer that came to fame with the song, “Disco Gal.” She is the daughter of Izumi Yukimura, a Japanese singer, actress, and painter. #mariahasahina #朝比奈マリア #70s #citypop #シティポップ #citypopdj #texas #grandprairietexas

I think I might move to #RedNote but not a lot of people there so far. Not even BlueSky is helpful with networking. I need a place in #grandprairietx (preferably Asia Times Square) that would allow a #citypop DJ such as myself to perform… #texas #grandprairie #citypopdj #80s #70s

40 years ago today, Phil Collins released 'One More Night,' from the gazillion selling No Jacket Required and became his 2nd Billboard Hot 100 hit. Put him in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame already.

“ESP” is the 6th track/leading track of Side B from the album, “It’s Magic” (1983) by Marlene. This album is also remembered for the cover of T-Square’s/The Square’s “It’s Magic”, which happens to be the title track. #grandprairietx #texas #dj #citypop #citypopdj #シティポップ #80s #grandprairie

If someone sends you a message saying "Hey," "How's it going," or "What are you doing?" Please don't ignore them. Don't be rude. Be kind and respond. If you're busy or something, respond when you're not. I feel that being kind is a lost art nowadays. Be there for each other. #bekind #bekindalways

55 years ago today, Led Zeppelin II hit #1 on the Billboard Album Chart, and cemented the band's legendary status with iconic hits like 'Whole Lotta Love' and 'Heartbreaker.'

On this day in 1976, Barry Manilow's I Write The Songs hit No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100, written by Beach Boy Bruce Johnston. First recorded by Captain & Tennille, it won a Grammy for Song of the Year.

On this day in 1997, Daft Punk's debut Homework was released with iconic hits "Da Funk" & "Around the World." Recorded at home, it defined French house, sold 2M+ globally, and changed dance music forever.

I am still looking for bars and clubs at the #grandprairie #irvingtx and #arlington areas for me to DJ at. I specialize in Japanese City Pop music. #citypop #citypopdj

Let me know if there’s any good bars and clubs that would let me play 70s/80s Japanese music in #grandprairie #dallas #irving #arlington areas! I can also play 70s Disco and 80s synthwave R&B and freestyle! - Johnny #citypop #70s #80s #dj

Don’t let people crush your dreams. If you want to be a DJ and perform to a crowd, please practice and never give up! - Johnny #citypop #dj #citypopdj #シティポップ #dfw #texas #grandprairie #grandprairiedj #70s #80s

My goal in life is to ensure that everyone is dancing to the classic sounds of the 70s and 80s, especially the sounds of 70s/80s Bubble Era Japan. I specialize in not only 70s/80s Japanese Pop music but also Japanese Fusion as well! #grandprairie #grandprairietx #texas #citypop #シティポップ
