from TOKYO MOON | August 1 ON AIR


A 30-Minute Musical Journey on a Midsummer Night


On a Sunday evening, your own time, flowing leisurely with exquisite music, is a moment of bliss for adults. Delivering such rich moments is DJToshio Matsuura's radio program "TOKYO MOON." Every Sunday, he broadcasts his carefully selected wonderful music from around the world and intellectually stimulating topics for adults on Inter FM 76.1MHz, starting at 7 PM. Here, Toshio Matsuura himself presents the program as it airs each week. So, what has he picked out this time?

Text by Toshio Matsuura




With a fresh spirit, we'll deliver wonderful sounds again this summer!



Lately, whenever I meet people in the music industry or old friends I haven't seen in a while, the first thing they almost always say is, "I listen to your radio show." And most of them say they listen while driving. Perhaps the show's vibe is just right for a drive. In any case, it's especially rewarding when fellow professionals compliment my selections. I want to continue introducing fascinating sounds to everyone.

This time again, I've blended music from the 1970s to contemporary new music from Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and North America into 30 minutes, transcending eras, genres, and borders. While I may lack strict adherence, I believe I maintain a clear direction. Throughout August, I plan to offer enjoyment on midsummer nights with a variety of approaches. Please look forward to it!
