@pbssocal @perrybjohnson covers our @jaccc_la listening series expanding upon jazz kissa culture into environmental music in the Japanese garden in DTLA 🌾🔊 Watch the full episode ~ link in bio ~ and join us for the first session of 2026 on April 17th!

OUTSIDE THE LYRICS, ep. IV--Listening Communities--is live now on @pbs and @pbssocal

Watch: https://youtu.be/xWer1AqLlP4

Come along with hosts @perrybjohnson and @blakinfinite as they explore the rise of communal listening spaces in Los Angeles--tracing the roots of this collective practice to the history and ethos of Japanese kissaten culture.

At the @jaccc_la, they spend an evening with @ranideleon in the JACCC's beautiful Japanese garden, tuning into a specially curated listening experience and album release organized with @pheeels, @insheepsclothinghifi, @mosukedog and @temporal_drift.

Along with a stop at the beloved @goldlinebar for a chat with @stonesthrow founder @pntbtrwlf, they dive into the power of shared music appreciation and the cultural traditions that inspire LA's contemporary listening spaces.

The series is presented in association with @idea_annenberg.

Big thanks to everyone who joined us for the first edition of A LA LUZ.

@zizou_losangeles feels different during the day, another light, another tempo. Morning rolled in with coffee and chocolate by @cafe.santo, food from @cafe.maghreb and Zizou’s kitchen, music selections by @elmarchante and @ranideleon, and the grounding scent of @littlesmoke.studio ‘s incense installation.

And of course, thank you @nicaguerrero for capturing it all so beautifully.

It’s been dreamy to see this come together, and it would not be possible without contributions from some of the most passionate and stealthiest culture-affectors in LA: @mosukedog @temporal_drift @cafe__ale @hattmerlino @pheeels @dubfrosty, and of course the small but mighty teams at @jaccc_la and @dublab.

Join us Saturday for a special evening of live performances, DJ’s and visuals inspired by #kankyōongaku — a genre of minimalist ambient sounds created during the rapid economic boom of 1980’s Japan as a much-needed respite from the frenetic pace of urban life. Perhaps even more relevant and needed today.

SAT, SEP 23, 5-10pm.
Learn more and get tickets at JACCC.org.
