JAKARTA - D'Masiv will go to Japan for a tour titled Japan Pop Journey in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo on April 18-20.

After appearing at the 2025 Musexpo event in Los Angeles, United States recently, Rian (vocals) said the tour to Japan was important for the global D'Masiv goes campaign. They wanted to 'confine the world' after they were satisfied to travel around Indonesia.

Ini melanjutkan (kampanye) D'Masiv goes global. Kita saat ini sudah 22 tahun bersama. Kalau di Indonesia, kita sudah (menggung) dari Sabang sampai Merauke. Kita mau coba market yang baru yang lebih luas," kata Rian saat ditemu di Petukangan, Jakarta Selatan baru-baru ini.

In every city, D'Masiv prepares 500 tickets for the audience. Despite targeting the diaspora who have lived there for a long time, the band from Ciledug believes that Japanese people will buy tickets and come to watch.

Based on his experience of performing abroad, Rian believes that this tour will receive appreciation from music lovers in Sakura Country. Therefore, D'Masiv prepared so that their performance would be of high quality.

"Usually abroad are rich in Germany, there are only five Indonesians who come, hundreds of other native German people. They appreciate the song D'Masiv," said Rian.

And if in Japan (the audience) doesn't see what language it is. He enjoys good and good music. We as a band just prepare the sound that is good, the game must be good, because they like quality," he added.

Still from D'Masiv's experience when appearing abroad, Rian admitted that he felt nervous when he went on stage. But until now, everything can still be overcome.

"Actually, if the gig has become our daily food, it has become a habit too. But if the audience is new, especially in people's countries, (it feels) it will be different. Rich (when D'Masiv appears) in LA, (who watches) not Indonesians, foreigners are all watching. At that time there was a feeling of nervousness, but after the gig (lost), "concluded Rian.
