What is Japan's Unique Music Culture "Taiban"?

[Japanese original live culture "Tairban"]

Japanese live houses have a unique culture called "taiban.". This is a system in which multiple bands appear in a performance in a day. This alone may exist in other countries. But there are special circumstances in Japan.

[Special Systems]

When a musician performs on a stage at a restaurant, the music sometimes makes the audience dance or sing, and often creates an atmosphere for eating and drinking as entertainment.

But Japanese live houses are different. The venue is often categorized as a restaurant by law, but musicians who perform here sell their own tickets and pay a fee to the venue. The sales of goods after the performance is also a big source of income. It will be profitable if the sales exceed the fee of the venue.

It is also important to make the audience that other performers invite your fans. The daily event consists of almost similar genres, so it is easy to get new customers.

[As a gateway to becoming a famous artist]

In recent years, the spread of Internet services has made it possible to gain many fans and profits without performing live. However, live houses still exist as a big gateway to success.

Everyone, please go to the live house. You may encounter music that hasn't come out yet.
