The Slate Phuket announces its fourth BOLD event for 2024, with Tokyo Vibration: The 444HZ Sound Journey with Kenta Hayashi taking place on 19th December, with Japanese singer-songwriter and loop pedal ninja Kenta Hayashi headlining. Guests will enjoy specially themed drinks and food, including the Electric Geisha cocktail, an interactive sake tasting station, and Japanese craft beers, along with yakitori, gyoza, tempura, sashimi, maki rolls, danburi and nigiri, and even Tokyo-inspired desserts, for an authentic immersion in the best of Japanese culture and food.
Kenta will provide a one-of-a-kind live performance where he weaves layered, psychedelic soundscapes, crafting hypnotic melodies that pulse with life. He will be joined by Dragon Sound, a duo whose original bamboo instruments blend sacred geometry with electric frequencies, bridging the gap between ancient resonance and modern sound. Together, they will be accompanied by a Goddess Dancer, whose ethereal movements echo the energy of Kenta’s music and the elemental force of Dragon Sound’s bamboo dives. Her dance will add a visual dimension, flowing seamlessly with the rhythmic layers and guiding the audience through a ritualistic journey of sight and sound.
“I am always inspired by my travels and love bringing new artists to Phuket to satisfy our guests’ desire for experiential travel,” says The Slate’s owner Krystal Prakaikaew Na-Ranong. “Hayashi’s live show is described as a spiritual meeting and tuning, which opens the hearts of the audiences and takes them on a musical adventure and this is exactly what we try to do with each BOLD event.”

The event will take place in the stunning setting of the Colisseum under the stars, creating a performance that transcends the ordinary, blending music, movement, and magic into an experience that feels both timeless and otherworldly.
Guests can also choose to join a Quantum Healing & Light Meditation Workshop by Kenta and Dragon Sound, which will combine a gentle yet powerful breathwork session and live music journey that will include rhythmic breathing and relaxation followed by sound healing with flutes, drums and crystal bowls, designed to enhance inner peace, intuition and clarity.
While most musicians perform at a musical pitch of 440HZ, Kenta’s use of 444HZ is said to provide harmonic richness and emotional depth to the music, which is more in tune with the natural harmonics of the human ear and therefore said to promote a sense of harmony and well-being.
BOLD events are not your ordinary events, but an opportunity for guests to try something different and immerse themselves in an adventure that excites all the senses. BOLD events bring to life the fearless and fun attitude of The Slate Phuket and are held throughout the year to promote artists, chefs, musicians and performers from around the world.
