BMSG FES’22 (Online)

 BMSG, a trailblazer in Japan’s music industry, has just concluded BMSG FES’23, a two-weekend music extravaganza which took place in Tokyo and Osaka to celebrate its third anniversary. This year’s festival expands its horizons, introducing a fresh concept with two venues and two new songs, marking a significant milestone in BMSG’s journey. BMSG FES’23 took place in both Tokyo and Osaka, Japan’s two largest cities, showcasing the depth and diversity of Japanese music culture. BMSG has just announced that they will be streaming the recording of the full festival online for fans worldwide. 

The Music: “The Sun from the EAST” and “The Moon in the WEST“

BMSG FES’23 features not one but two new songs, each an ode to the talent and creativity of the BMSG family. Following the tradition of “New Chapter” which was previously produced by BMSG CEO and rapper, SKY-HI and Ryosuke “Dr.R” Sakai, the 2 songs “The Sun from the EAST” and  “The Moon in the WEST” were released on 18 September 2023.

Additionally at BMSG FES’23, rare collaborative moments were unveiled throughout the event. Notable collaborative performances included ‘YOLO’ by Team C, featuring Aile The Shota, SHUNTO, REIKO, RUI, and TAIKI, which showcased a reunion of talent from the auditions program ‘THE FIRST,’ which brought energy to the forefront. BMSG artists Novel Core, SHUNTO (BE:FIRST), and RYOKI (BE:FIRST) joined forces to deliver ‘MF,’ a new collaborative hip-hop track that left the audience wanting more. ‘One More Day Remix‘ was a nostalgic highlight, the latter half of the song was performed by BMSG’s original four artist trainees – REIKO, RAN, KAIRYU, and SEITO – who embarked on their journey together during the ‘MISSIONx2‘ auditions program from Day 1. ‘One More Day Remix’ closes the section as a surprise to all audiences, where solo artists and groups collaborate one after another in a non-stop medley for half an hour before handing over to the grand finale. These performances were just a glimpse of the magic that unfolded at BMSG FES’23, making it an unforgettable celebration of music and talent.
