Living in Japan presents obstacles for some music fans. Despite Tokyo being a major world capital, it can be costly for up-and-coming bands from the West to make their way here. Every now and then, however, an event comes this way that ensures locals can be part of the latest "buzz."

Creativeman's latest outing, Radars, is one such event.

"The aim of this event is to bring (to Japan) international artists, who are at the forefront of the latest trends in music," says Creativeman's Yoshinari Hirayama.
