The seventh edition of YouTube Music Weekend is coming up and has a focus on digital native artists

Under the guise of ending the summer holidays on a good note, YouTube Japan has planned a new edition of YouTube Music Weekend on the last weekend of August: from Friday 25 August to Sunday 27 August, this time the digital event is supported by docomo.

In case you are not yet familiar with this concept, YouTube Music Weekend is a weekend filled with premieres of live performances, music videos, talks and other videos created exclusively for this weekend. The seventh edition will feature 57 artists dubbed ‘digital native artists’ who have received international recognition and come from Japanese internet culture, including artists such as ZUTOMAYO, Eve, PINOCCHIOP, n-buna, Hoshimachi Suisei and YOASOBI. These musicians are the headliners for the seventh edition of YouTube Music Weekend.

YouTube Japan has put everything in a playlist so you don’t have to search for the videos that will premiere, but it is definitely recommended to subscribe to all these YouTube channels. The event will also be linked to the recently launched PictoPOP playlist, which represents digital-born artists and showcases the performers’ music to the world via YouTube Music.

All participating artists of this edition: Aiobahn / 明透 (ASU) / 天月 (Amatsuki) / IA / ヰ世界情緒 (Isekaijoucho) / Eve / ウォルピスカーター (Wolpis Carter) / 花譜 (KAF) / 神山羊 (Yoh Kamiyama ) / カンザキイオリ (Iori Kanzaki) / Kikuo / キタニタツヤ (Tatsuya Kitani) / キツネリ(Kitsuneri) / Guiano / くじら (Kujira) / 獅子志司 (Shishishishi) / syudou / 須田景凪 (Keina Suda) / Snail’s House / sekai / ずっと真夜中でいいのに。(ZUTOMAYO) / DUSTCELL / ダズビー (DAZBEE) / 超学生 (Chogakusei) / 月詠み (Tsukiyomi) / ツユ (TUYU) / TOOBOE / なとり (natori) / なるみや (Narumiya) / 音莉飴 (Neriame) / NOMELON NOLEMON / Nornis / PAS TASTA / はるまきごはん (Harumaki Gohan) / ピノキオピー (PINOCCHIOP) / P丸様。(Pmaru-sama) / FAKE TYPE. / 星街すいせい (Hoshimachi Suisei) / ぼっちぼろまる (Bocchi Boromaru) / Midnight Grand Orchestra / Mili / めいちゃん (Meychan) / MECRE / MAISONdes / もさを。(Mosawo) / yama / ユアネス (yourness) / ユプシロン (Yupsilon) / YOASOBI / ヨルシカ (n-buna) / 理芽 (RIM) / luz / Reol / ROF-MAO / x0o0x_ / 和ぬか (Wanuka) / WaMi

A cropped version of a photo of Shuya Onuki as KAMIKAMIKAMI, but edited in a way that it shows an eerie and mysterious moment. The photo consists of a bright light source, most probably the sun, and the musician who seemed to have taken the photo in a window. The editing is done by Floor Toppets @/fl00r99 on Instagram, and shows blurring and filters, making it an abstract photo.
