Anyone can enjoy various genres of music immediately. When you select the song you want to play, download it and start playing! When new songs are uploaded, they are automatically added to the list.

You can arrange, change, move, and resize all of the images and sounds easily by using drag&drop.
You are able to control your DAWs, DJ tools, and samplers by using body motions in the air! You don’t need to touch anything during the performance, not even your musical devices.
You are able to edit the properties of the icon with Camera View, so it’s easy to create Soundsets while getting feedback.
You can create different song sequences putting Scenes on the Timeline. You can also change the details of each scene anytime.
You can easily use images and audio files which are made by yourself or obtained from other sources. Just drop these files on the KAGURA screen directly from the folder of your PC/Mac.
