“THE ARGUMENT,” a new indoor festival curated by envy and MONO We participated as staff members representing the Butter Sugar Toast team at this festival, which featured both Japanese and international artists performing at two venues in Shibuya: O-EAST and O-WEST. The audience filling the 1,000-capacity venue was truly impressive, but what stood out most was that every artist performing this time was a DIY artist who had survived in the music industry entirely on their own. Unlike major-label artists backed by massive capital, each of them has forged their own philosophy through trial and error, seeking the best way of life for themselves. I feel that this way of life is reflected in their music. While their musical styles vary, their human flaws—the result of that trial-and-error process—are reflected in their sound and artistic vision. I also sensed the same artisan-like professionalism among the staff handling operations, cameras, lighting, PA, and other behind-the-scenes roles. And I think the audience members who resonated with this event are all wonderful as well. I felt it was a truly wonderful festival. Thank you all for your hard work during this long event.
