Space Shower TV (スペースシャワーTV) is a Japanese music television channel operated by Space Shower Networks, Inc. The company is headquartered in Minato, Tokyo. The channel launched at 6:00 on December 1, 1989.[1][2] Initially limited to cable viewers, it began broadcasting using Japanese communication satellites in mid-1992.[3]
The idea behind establishing Space Shower TV was to create a specialized music channel like MTV in Japan. The purpose was to make it a strictly music channel providing quality content that would meet the standards of a true music fan.[4]
Its programming line-up in 1992 include a mix of Japanese, Western and ethnic pop music programs such as Bum Television, Wild Side and Booing.[3]
