ab：What do you take good care to product magazine in part of creative?

Ohno : After all, it depends that is cool or not. After all, it's Intuition! I think the cool thing or interesting thing don't need reason. It go out of use if those things don't come out the scene or we don't see.
I think if we human being increase input output increase also. I was lucky that I could see many scenes and many people. Also I like various music, and I was lucky I had a chance to go abroad many times. The more you had better see many things from various side the more you have a sharp sense and incrase the choises.

ab：It is the part to lead to On the spot,Realism.

Ohno : I think everybody feel like to understand all by internet in modern era. Then it happen you can only　get the same thing as everybody get. But when you see a real thing, you are extremely moved and that's very important! It's a matter of course to know information through internet, It gonna be important how experienced from now on. I think Japan is national isolationism now. Everybody can't speak English and they don't often go abroad don't they? It's not good customs to stay in Japan, speak only Japanese, see only Japanese things.

This is the photograph of Punkspring At backstage in 2008 for the FLJ first issue. You can see a deluxe members in picture, RANCID、PENNYWISE、NOFX、Akihiro Namba、Hikaru.

ab : Is your experience reflected as an idea in practice?

Ohno : Yes, That's right. For example about fes, there is good Fes in Europe and in United States, and I think I take in a good thing. Punkspring is the same way too. Almost people who like punk or hip hop hardly like other kinds of music. Don't you think it's painful you can see only a few favorite bands even if you pay large sum for it?
But In USA, if you go to Warped Tour you can see a terrific numeric bands throughout the day from the daytime, and the girls are cute also. Then after live they enjoy a barbecue! I thought "What's this! Aren't they tricky?" But this idea troubled me strongly! I wanted to have a fes like only punk throughout the day in Japan after saw Warped Tour. Then punkspring started. I thought "Of course I can't exactly make the same thing but I can make similar it."

ab : How do you think about the media which are long in the scene, judge from Mr. Ono who has checked the prosperity and surround a scene?

Ohno : I think I feel the present magazine is uninteresting because only the person among whom it's popular
appears in the magazine. Now, it's very popular to put the marketing first how to show the street, and maybethe fact happen that a reader image is difficult to see. It involve publicity, only the thing to sell well get into a magazine. I understand that's happen sometimes but magazine used to have a part to liven up someone who is gonna be famous. And I hope a tendency like that still remain.

I think it is necessary for the person whose job is to handle the information for business to have the feeling of speed for this reason. And it becomes the problem to get your good choise right to pick up from a large number of information.

I wish everybody read this and they were driven and FLJ could be help to entrance to something.
For example I'm happy a person in thirties reads this and feel been driven. I hope this magazine will be like "An edition Viagra".
