Welcome to AniSS, or Anime Song Sydney, Volume 4, our next truly stacked mainline Anikura event. Following on from our last event, this nights party will instead be entirely focused on music from anime and other otaku fandoms, such as touhou, vocaloid, j-pop and rhythm games (list not exhaustive). This next event is our first year from our hard Volume 1 launch, DJ Retort’s birthday is the next day, SoundSlash’s the week beforehand, and so we have gone with the birthday theme. For those that don’t speak Japanese yet, the title essentially translates roughly to Happy Birthday.

If you’ve never attended an Anikura before and want to know what it is: The word Anikura is an portmanteau of the words anime and nightclub, so I guess, in English, it’d be like AnimeClub. In Japan, it refers more to a place than a genre, that is any club that focuses on anime music, and so it can often encapsulate different kinds of vibes. For us, we aim to capture a feeling of an event that’d be hosted in clubs such as Mogra, IV and Raizeen, so if you’ve attended or seen any of those clubs, then you’d have a kind of understanding of the feeling we’re going for.

Cosplay is highly encouraged!
