Yes, the koban (police box) is a helpful little hut if one can be found, 
but in my case questions at shops and banks ellicited only the 
question:  WHICH Daikon Business Plaza Building?  Now if one could find the 
koban staffed by music geeks, perhaps a navigation around the 200 or so 
(according to legend) recordshops in Nishi-Shinjuku might be a bit 
easier.  But for me it was Lost Apson...  For some microsound content, what 
shocked me on my trip was that Tower Records in Shibuya had a huge and 
lovingly stocked experimental section including Selektion and WrK labels 
(Zero Gravity was down on the J-Pop floor) and that even a little Virgin in 
Shinjuku had a wall display for the Philus album on Sakho.  If you saw such 
things at those chains here, you would suspect something had been sprinkled 
into your drink...
