actually just rewatched Akira last night.. a friend of mine hired a cinema and had a private screening of it and had created a dj mix (wasnt live) to replace the audio.. with subtitles you still got the dialogue but set to burial, square pusher and an assortment of other things..
was actually pretty dope, especially as he had timed it all so drops in songs and big changes matched perfectly..
he had little snack bags and everything..

Bobby ni Kubittake or Bobby's Girl (1985) is a rare short movie that was showed along The Dagger of Kamui film.
Lots of the people involved on this went onto work on Akira a year after. Also the Take On Me video was made a year after it came out too.
