WELOVE KYOTO

Bringing the World’s Underground Sound to the Ancient Capital

2026.11.21 SAT
22:00 – NEXT MORNING
@ KYOTO METRO

Autumn leaves illuminated against the night sky.
The contours of the city dissolving into light.

After wandering through Kyoto’s illuminated temples and gardens, bring that lingering atmosphere with you to the dance floor at METRO.

Born from Sydney’s underground scene, WELOVE arrives in Kyoto this autumn, bringing its distinctive energy to a city wrapped in seasonal stillness.

At the heart of WELOVE is Nick Reverse, an Italian-born DJ and producer who has built his own party culture in Australia.

Having shared the stage with the likes of Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier and Marco Carola, he has moved dance floors across an array of clubs and festivals. His sound weaves together the depth of house, the driving force of techno and the rising intensity of finely crafted mixes.

That distinctive sensibility, shaped by the nights of Sydney, now flows into Kyoto’s underground.

Joining him is the unmistakable groove of AKIRA ARASAWA.

Releasing music through labels in Japan and around the world, including Chill Mountain, his tracks have been played by the likes of Acid Pauli and Prins Thomas.

From Ibiza’s Radio Sonica to festivals in Croatia, Wonderfruit in Thailand and M.N. Roy in Mexico, his journeys across the globe have shaped a unique musical language.

Organic rhythms, rich low-end melodies and layers of psychedelia unfold into a groove that is entirely his own.

Holding the floor alongside them is masato.mt, the driving force behind TREKs, connecting parties and dance floors from Kyoto and Shiga to scenes across Japan.

And making a triumphant return from Australia, GNGR joins the lineup.

Different cultures, different journeys, different sensibilities — all converging on one dance floor for one unforgettable night.

Visual and spatial experiences will be created by トキメキライツ & SpaceHaze, as light moves through the waves of sound, transforming the very shape and atmosphere of the floor.

The accumulated history of Japan’s ancient capital meets the ever-evolving sounds of the global underground.

At this intersection, we come together to create a new chapter in Kyoto’s nightlife.

Whether you call Kyoto home or are visiting during this beautiful season, bring the afterglow of autumn with you.

Come join us at KYOTO METRO.

おいでやす — Welcome to Kyoto.
