WEEKEND BLACKBOX SESSION 5TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL - Special Guest DJ: WH0

WEEKEND BLACKBOX SESSION 5TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL - YUUKI YOSHIYAMA “IDENTITY” (WH0 PLAYS REC) RELEASE PARTY - W Osaka’s signature monthly night, WEEKEND BLACKBOX SESSION, reaches its 5th anniversary —an inflection point where the blackbox ethos feels sharper, darker, and more inevitable than ever. This is not a celebration of spectacle. It’s a celebration of conviction: a room built for immersion, where groove becomes gravity, light becomes texture, and time dissolves into pulse. For this milestone edition, W Osaka welcomes WH0 as Special Guest DJ. Emerging in 2018 behind a black mask and an unmistakable house sound, WH0 began as an anonymous project that rapidly evolved into one of dance music’s most compelling success stories. Today, the world knows the name behind the project, yet the mystique remains—because what matters is what happens when the kick lands: the air shifts, the floor locks, and the night moves as one. With achievements that range from a Grammy nomination and FIFA soundtrack features to over 80 million Spotify streams, plus chart recognition across Music Week and 1001Tracklists, WH0’s credentials are formidable—but their true signature is control: the rare ability to bridge eras, to make classic house feel futuristic, and to turn a room into a single, focused organism. This night also marks the YUUKI YOSHIYAMA “IDENTITY” (Wh0 Plays Records) Release Party. As W Osaka’s Music & Entertainment Director, YUUKI YOSHIYAMA brings home a sound refined on the world’s most iconic stages —through releases on labels such as Toolroom Records and performances at EDC, Tomorrowland (Belgium), Bootshaus (Germany), and Amsterdam Dance Event. This March, he is also set to appear at Tomorrowland Winter 2026 (France) as the only Japanese artist on the lineup. True to its title, This night’s theme is IDENTITY—a night to declare who you are, through sound. Guided by W Osaka resident DJs DMITRI ABSINTHE and MAX PELA and more, the blackbox sound takes over—deep, driving, and immersive. Expect a night where precision meets pressure, elegance meets edge, and the anniversary glow merges with raw dancefloor power.
