This one’s special: Ill Japonia steps into the Eastern Margins Garden this week to curate a Guesthouse of his most important influences, traversing so many genres, eras and timezones. 

This is honestly one of the most emotionally affecting collections of music we’ve come across - you definitely want to check this out.⁣

This Guesthouse marks Ill Japonia’s breathtaking debut EP, ‘III’ on Eastern Margins. 

‘Ill’ is the the stargazing debut EP from Ill Japonia. Drawing from a decade of influences being a ringleader of psychedelic acid rock weirdos Bo Ningen, ‘Ill’ is vulnerability and introspection; screamed to the world with pride. Tracing a line between the swagger of The Blue Hearts, the ecstasy of Babymetal and the vivacity of Shibuya’s 2020 rap scene, Ill Japonia places a marker in the sand for all challengers.⁣
