From Staff:
Japanese Alternative Magazine (JP ALT MAG) prides itself in outstanding middle-class citizen journalism.
We are a collective of Japanese-music-obsessed English-speaking writers and volunteers who live only to satisfy you: the reader.
We focus on interviews, monthly mixtapes, current acts alongside deep dives into music history.
We recommend keeping this page open at all times on your device of choice to stay updated about strange, wonderful, experimental and alternative music from Japan. JP ALT staff are certain you’ll find a band you love here.
