Hotei – Walking Through The Night (ft. Iggy Pop):
Japanese superstar Hotei has just released the video for his new single βWalking Through The Nightβ, which features the iconic Iggy Pop on vocals. 2016 marks Hoteiβs 35th anniversary in music and to celebrate this milestone, Hotei has been touring Japan extensively including over 50 live dates ranging from intimate club shows, to a free open-air concert in his hometown in front of 25,000 fans and will be ending the year with his 31st performance at the Budokan in Tokyo on December 30th, with a very special fan request show.
Not one to rest on his laurels, Hotei has been focusing on his international career and this year sold-out his first-ever LA show at the legendary Troubador, and the Highline Ballroom in New York. He also guested on Italian rock star Zuccheroβs latest album and performed with him recently in Verona and at the Royal Albert Hall.
Heralded by Time Out as βiconicβ, and a genuine superstar in his native Japan where he has sold more than 40 million records, Hotei is best known internationally for his Kill Bill theme βBattle Without Honor or Humanityβ and is sought-after as a collaborator both in the studio and on stage.
βStrangers In The Nightβ is taken from the album Strangers, which was released last year through Spinefarm Records and is Hoteiβs first international release. The album features an array of guests including Emigrate/Rammsteinβs Richard Z. Kruspe (who lent vocals on the ferocious video for βMove Itβ), Bullet For My Valentineβs Matt Tuck, Noko from UK electronic band pioneers Apollo 440, and acclaimed Texan singer Shea Seger, alongside the godfather of punk, Iggy Pop.
