THE MUSIC BAR -CAVE SHIBUYA- is the larger, more polished end of Tokyo's record-bar spectrum: a basement bistro and cocktail room with selectors, a large analog record library, Tannoy Westminster Prestige speakers and McIntosh amplification. The room is built for more than purist listening. Food, drinks and groups are part of the model, but the system gives the place a proper spine. It can handle Shibuya's social energy without reducing the records to decoration. Best for people who want a serious system in a room that still behaves like a smart city bar.
