Japan's "Brain Disco" Kicks Out Boring DJs

Japan's Brain Disco Kicks Out Boring DJs

Did you ever go to a club and leave soon because the DJ's music sucks? Well, you don't have to run away anymore. The same company that brought us the very popular magical thinking cap known as "Necomimi" Japanese Cats Ears For "Communication", neurowear has teamed up with Qosmo for an all new wacky brainwave scanning device known as the Brain Disco! What is a "Brain Disco"? Well, perhaps it is best understood in the manufacturer's own words:
neurowear, teamed up with Qosmo (http://qosmo.jp/), developed "Brain Disco", where DJ must maintain audiences' "attention", measured with brainwave sensors, in order to keep DJing. If the average attention value remains less than a given threshold, DJ gets kicked out. The first Brain Disco experiment has been held at Gallery KATA Ebisu in July 26.

Below is a short promo video for this new useless contraption high-tech mind reader:

Who Are The Japanese Popstars?

Well, they're not Japanese and they don't even play 'pop' music, but the The Japanese Popstars are one of the most popular electronica/house DJ groups going these days. Check out this very cool video for their "Facemelter" single released earlier this year:



The Japanese Popstars are Decky Hedrock, Gary Curran, and Gareth Donoghue. This group will appear at the upcoming Fuji Rock Festival. You can find out more information and download about five hours of their music tracks for free at The Japanese Popstars Podcast
